20 somethings

Ooooh huge box! How exciting. Really happy for your maintain and the social committee news!

I got too hungry and had some fruit. Lol. It has reminded me to stop picking so much though, and that I'm doing sw because i need to lose weight without feeling hungry or weighing everything!
 
I hate suprise gifts lol I always keep on until my OH gives in and tells me, and I definately cant keep a secret like when I bought nfl tickets for his birthday 7 months before his birthday and id already told him two weeks after I ordered them :/ and the phone that was then his new birthday present, I told him just after I ordered it cos his bro was on about trying to get him a contract and I didnt wanna risk him getting one too lol and he knows his xmas pressie :/ I fail at suprise lol
 
Well ladies, I didn't make a baby, I got my star week today :( it's a good job really otherwise we would have had to postpone the wedding, but i'm still a little disappointed. It's being evil to me though, i'm in so much pain with it, it hurts more than it did when i went into labour!

Just weighed myself on the wii and it's showing me as in the 11's, so hoping it keeps it up for me for Monday! Determined to be in the 11's for new year and to reach 11 and a half stone by my birthday 26th january, then lose that last stone by march hopefully!

Jess, I saw your advert, you little angel! :) xx
 
Sorry guys had a bit of a mad evening, will def catch up and post properly tomorrow xxx
Sammy never mind, it will be so worth it when it happens xx

Thanks hunny, we were lucky enough to fall pregnant with jack after only 6 months of trying, even though we'd been told we would need help because of my PCOS, so he was obviously was meant to be! We want another couple, but ideally not until after the wedding. This was just a slip up that, if a baby was made then was obviously meant to be here, but as it turns out one wasn't and so we can continue with the wedding plans as we were. Sitting enjoying a small glass of port now after cheese and crackers and then off to bed. Been trying to get a Fisher Price Dance n Play Puppy from Argos for ages from my mum for Jack for Christmas but they've been sold out for weeks. /they finally have one left in store today so i've reserved it and will be going to collect it tomorrow - yay! :) xx
 
Hey everybody, hope everyone is good today. I'm enjoying this whole being off work thing, it suits me haha. I've realised that the best plan of attack food wise for Christmas is too keep my meals free and use my syns on the treats I want. Worked yesterday at least, so hopefully I can keep it up!
 
busy busy busy! Jack's a little under the weather today, a slight cough and cold :( i'm still feeling terrible because of star week. want to eat the world, still might do.... i wonder if that's what ends it?! lol xx
 
Hi jenna, looking lush in your dress!

Sammy that made me LOL! Nate has the same thing, the cough proper will come through soon enough. Nate is struggling to drink his milk (nap and bed times) too. He is a bit off his food, that said he is wolfing down the diet coke chicken, and raisins earlier. He stole a satsuma when I was on the phone (to my Grandad, uncle pat died) and I saw him peel it and throw the peel in the bin and eat it all by himself!

Yesterday I tried ff, was starving and wanted to eat everything. Today I was being normal and ate far less. Stupid psychology.
 
Sorry to hear about uncle pat Fran, hope your grandad is ok xx poor nate feeling off colour, hope he is back to cheeky self soon!

Been busy busy busy indeed! Got a present and a bit of a bonus when I left work today which was nice. I get part cash part bank paid (all taxed- nothing dodgy! Lol) and to get Christmas off I was having one day unpaid but they paid me the cash bit for it as a Christmas bonus which was nice of them. Got some lovely hugs and kisses from the boys too :)

Need to finish my shopping tomorrow, got some money from my mum today from the sale of nans house which was unexpected, so used it to pay a bit off my debts knocking 4 months off the duration which will really help things and also decided to get mike an extra Xmas present for everything he's done for me this year. Been a rough year at times and don't know what I'd have done without him. Soppiness over :)

Got wine and my sofa for the evening- I'm happy! What are you all up to? Xxx
 
Aw Scarlett soppiness is nice :)

Jenna I'm the same Christmas is hard!!!! Really trying my best but its so difficult. I find the hardest thing being home and the meals my family are eating. My mam made tuna and pasta in a cheese sauce this evening and I have just about managed to squeeze it into my syns. Annoying because I was quite proud of my low syns today lol.

Fran sorry to hear about your Uncle x
 
Aww so sorry for your uncle Fran. Jack started with the cough yesterday but it does seem to be getting a little stronger :( dont think i'll be able to get him to the doctors before xmas though as they're rubbish at giving out appointments. if i need to then i'll take him to the out of hours one. Just gave him cheese on toast for the first time and he loved it! Clever boy peeling and eating the satsuma all by himself! :) what exactly is FF? is it all super free food all day?

Jenna, your ass will not be fat! a few pounds does not a fat ass make... they will come back off after xmas when you get back on plan :) You look great in your dress!

Scarlett, congrats on the unexpected bonus! always nice to be able to knock a chunk off your debts, makes things easier in the long run! xx
 
Thanks Sammy, its a nice surprise but a bit bittersweet as it means nans house is no longer ours. The couple buying it seem lovely and they've said we can go in to see what they've done with it as they are totally refurbishing it and as nan was there for 30 years its hard to imagine it any other way. Little bit drunk and getting emotional so will sign off for a bit x
 
Technically he is my great uncle, but he's just uncle pat, I have seen him only a few times, which is more often than my proper uncles. To be honest I think he's glad it is over. He had a pretty horrid illness and he wanted to kill himself before it got bad but he couldn't (catholic mortal sin and all that). They asked for his brain so hopefully he can go towards helping find a treatment for others with it. My Grandad was glad he was there for the end but it was hard, it reminded him of when he found tommy (his best friend hanged himself) earlier this year. He said they had a big party for him after the funeral and the sneyds outsung the other side of the family, so despite everything it is a bit of a relief, he has been close to the end for a while. He still won't come down for Xmas though. I reminded him that he is always welcome and dad would pick him up and he would have his own space in the annex, but he won't come. Mum is back tomorrow afternoon though. :)

Jenna you'd have to gain A LOT to get a fat arse! So shush else I will settle my mighty arse on you :p

Sammy, hopefully you won't need to take jack to the drs, they have infant cough mix in boots, and calpol. Nate is still his cheeky self don't worry! His favourite thing is an old beer crate because he can climb on it and reach even more stuff! He is a monster for stealing fruit, I wouldn't mind if he wasn't turning his nose up at his meals. Little horror. It must just be easier on his tummy. It does sound like a horrid cough, like he is choking, so it sounds worrying but then he is fine again. There's a lot of it about. It won't stop him on Christmas though, scrambled egg, roast dinner, chocolate, he'll be loving it!

That's great about your double windfall scarlet. I couldn't imagine a family wanting the nanny there on Christmas day too, however lovely she is! It sounds like you are doing a good job with those boys too. A bit of soppiness is called for sometimes ;)

Re Christmas, ive been ok so far (despite rubbish weightloss!) I have a feeling I will eat for Britain for those few days. Got a few ideas of what I will be having for synfulnesses but I'm going to have what I want when i want on the 25th until the end of the 28th (birthday), then back to basics after that. I don't really drink so new years is no issue, I lost weight over Easter, I don't go on holidays and usually have jacket potato when I'm out so it's not a regular thing. It is just holding off before then! Haha.

Ff is fast forward, a kind of block buster when your weightloss is going crap. It is super strict. No free foods, no healthy extras or syns. It was the mental block of not being able to go have a piece of fruit that broke me. I don't do being hungry. Mum and I have a similar bmi but the consultant didn't calculate the number of units based on mum's bmi but on her own (who is a healthy weight) so it wasn't very helpful Haha, other than to remind me to stop picking!
 
ooh sounds horrible! hope i never have to do FF! i'm giving myself xmas day and boxing day off and going to try to be good the rest of the week, but will see what happens! xx
 
Well we have my nieces and their mum from boxing day for a few days, and my birthday is the 28th so I may as well have the whole little stretch off... finished cleaning and I'm amazed at how dirty the floors got in a month! A month since mopping, not since vacuuming, that'd be really gross. Now doing the last of the wrapping up. It's nearly here! Sammy you must be so excited for your first christmas as a mummy!
