Wagon, where art thou?

Perhaps the title is slightly misleading. I haven't lost the wagon, or indeed fallen off it; I simply ignored it for 2 days! It was like a huge pink elephant in the middle of the room that nobody talked about.
I went to Brighton to see Yann Tiersen in concert with my beautifully slim sister and niece. Apart from feeling like a whale between two goldfish I had a great time. Of course, this great time was hugely influenced by several bottles of wine and a food fest. Cookies, burger, chips... yum!
However, I am back on the plan today - especially after seeing photographic evidence of how unlike my sister I am! There is one photgraph of me with her and even my head is twice the size of hers. I am not amused.
I am feeling slightly hard done by today; in the respect that I am not genetically predisposed to being the slim and beautiful one. I firmly believe there is a shared gene pool amongst siblings and as the youngest of four I simply scraped what was left at the bottom - algae and all.
I will win this fight. I just need to acknowledge that the huge pink elephant in the middle of the room is in fact me. And she can no longer be ignored.
