Afghanistan weight loss diary - C25K WK1,2,3,4+5 - Complete!

[LovelyLauren]

Well done you, mrs! Right, wear the a*rse out of the leggings or get yourself to M&S and buy their ones for less than £10.00 - their cheap but good quality. Then just layer up with t-shirts, long line cardi's etc - bang on trend (ooh, get me, move over Gok!)

As for the spa, you can visit anytime you are near Newport in South Wales

Hope you have a great day, I'm hanging on in there - didn't drink enough yesterday and felt really hungry, perhaps it takes slighter longer to get into ketosis with SS+?

Weigh on Friday is focusing me though, and I am now off to search for a Zumba class, Little Miss Inspiration....

Take care, MrsMac

Hi sweet!

Ooooh get you!! Zumbaaaaa!! you will absolutely love it !! Let me know how u get on finding a class!!

Thats quite possible With ss+ chick but I have absolutely no idea to be honest! Is fab though that the losses are the same! If I had a bit more self restraint I'd do it but what's chicken without chips lol hence soul source for me!!

Thanks so much for yesterday, lost the plot a bit!

Going to go and get some new leggins like u say, No point buying jeans etc but leggins will shrink with me to an extent to will be able to wear them longer!!

Have got a gold/cream jumper dress on today that was farrrrr too short when I bought it as it went out more than down! But today it's where it should be with my leggins so made up!!


Woke up in a fab mood today, mid week, just got to get the weekend out the way and it's a month and a half since he left which makes mr feel like almost 2 months ha!

Wrote letters to him this morning as my laptop broke the other day and is in being fixed so no eblueys for a week or so!

Love writin to him anyway and always send them, but wrote 2 off the baby today which will cheer him up no end!

Hoping for a phone call but not acting crazy waiting in all day yesterday, he will ring my mobile if there's no one in!

Going to see my friends today the. Going to see my mother in law this afternoon!

Hope today goes quick, and hope you don't feel as hungry today hun!! Up the water!!

Today is a good day!!

Mid week, almost mid day and the days are flying!!

Have decided that for Every day I'm 100% which has been everyday so far.... Well the next day,

I will allow myself a squirt of the perfume Peter bought me before he left!!

It reminds me of him loads and what he's doing and gives me a kick that this diet is nothing compared to his sacrifice!

So today I smell beautiful!

Goin swimming tonight, Zumba made me feel so good last night that my excercise bug is working over time!

Have been doing 60 lengths in an hour, but found out there is 64 in a
Mile so going to start doing the extra 4!!

By the end of the month i want to be doing 64 in an hour not 60 so hoping to knock
Time off each time I go!!

Life is good, I have a beautiful baby, a husband that loves us Sooooo much, I'm getting thinner/healthier I couldn't really ask for much more other than hubby being home obviously! But everything else is good!

Hope your all ok too, have a good day and speak To u soon xxxx

Hi gorgeous girls!

I certainly am grateful for what I have, I'm so lucky in life and my
God I know it!!

The poor baby has nasty german measles, thrush and is teething!!

It explains the last few awful days poor little angel!!

Had a tiring day but i suppose the one good thing about a poorly baby is extra cuddles and loves!

She's on the mend and over te worst!

The weight should be dropping off me I Havnt stopped!!

Had a lovely chat with Peter as well it really cheers him up how positive I am when henrings, hopefully making his days a bit more barable!

Me and Lissy have bought special poppies and written his name on, we will wear them with pride everyday!

Xxxxxxxx

 

[LovelyLauren]

My mate was late picking me up so we I my had 45 mins in the baths so did 45 lengths!

Had a call from the husband Havnt stopped smiling since!

Happy happy happy!!

Baby fast asleep but has been
Up all night with my mum an dad out of sorts!

Hope she's better tomorrow love her the world.

Night godless xxxxxxxx

 

[Moleymole]

fab that Peter has rang hun, nothing worse than waiting for a phone call. I really need to do more exercise, at the moment running after Charlie is all I get lol - hopefully when Sam gets home I may be able to do more - I'd love to take up running but we'll see cant wait to see your next weigh in I bet you lose loads again - you are gonna get to goal so quickly you are so fab at this plan xx have a lovely day sweetie

 

[LovelyLauren]

Hiya hunni

I'm so lucky that im able to come home otherwise I wouldn't be able to exercise at all hun so know exactly where your coming from!
Make the most of hubbies return ha!!

Hopin to loose another 5lb this week so iv got a bit of a head start if I am naughty on Christmas!!

But not unrealistic - any loss is great!!

Having a right day today, was in out of hours with Lissy til 1am as she was just hysterical, nothing would console her and thought enough is enough

Also wanted to make sure it was nothing worse than rubella...

Got there and Lissy was all smiles babbling away - you couldn't of made it up!!

Doctor finally saw her and said it's something called satellite lesions so I'm thrilled its not measles!

Told to use canaston on her bits and emulsifying ointment on the rest of her, finally
Got home and the screaming started up again - typical!

Put her in with me and could only get her to sleep cuddling her, soon as moved she woke screaming!

So i stayed awake all night as petrified I'd squash her, and she woke every 10 minutes or so scratching and sobbing it was awful!

Had heart burn allllllllll night as well just to kick me while i was down!

Same routine today and she's actually asleep on me now, I'm pooped!!!

Hope my little angel is better soon I would do anything to have it so she didn't...

Again diet is just standard, no feelings of cheating although I'm sure a cheeseburger would make it all better!! (kidding!)

Here's to a happy healthy child and a big loss this week to make me forget the last few crappy days!!

Have a good day everyone xxxxxxxxx

 

[Moleymole]

oh hun its so hard when they are poorly especially when they are so little. I know what you mean about being awake all night when they are in with you, I used to be the same with Charlie. Now if he comes in with me he puts his arms around my neck so I can't breathe lol.

I hope she is feeling better tomorrow and you manage to get some sleep tonight sweetie xxx

and heres to another 5lb I'm sure you'll get it !!!

xxx

 

[Tessieg1]

Ah Hon, shame - poor little one. Hope she gets well really soon. It's awful when they're sick especially when they're so small. Jess use to be very sickly in her first year and I was in and out of the hospital with her. It was heartbreaking. Good luck, Hon and I hope you manage to get some sleep tonight.

 

[MrsMacTheKnife]

Hi hun, hope your little one is feeling better this morning?

You are doing fabulously considering what you are dealing with, with hubby being away and baby poorly so you deserve a brilliant weight loss this week

I'm off for my weigh in this morning, keep your fingers crossed!

Take care, MrsMac

Not too hopeful for 5lbs but with what's happened this week couldn't of done any more than I did so whatever has gone I will be made up with!!

Hope ur good - can't waiter hear how skinny u r!!

Xxxx

 

[LovelyLauren]

Goooooood morning!! Well aftenoon actually!!!

Can't believe it's Friday again already! Feels like only yesterday i was saying I had the Friday feeling!!

Certainly not complaining!!

Woke up in a wonderful mood - felt like of spent a month in a health spa.... I'd actually just had 7 hours sleep haha don't think I web has 7 hours combines over the last 6 nights so feel like all my Christmases came at once wen I woke up at 6.50am this morning!

Lissy has been a breath of beautiful fresh air this morning, te difference in her is actually
Unbelievable!

Iv decided that canaston is actual magic in a tube! She's currently rolling round with her little chubby bum on show and it's 100x better!

It's bonfire night and although I'm hiding behind my sofa all night curtains drawn the lost - im so glad its here!! Thats 2 big occasions crossed off until Peter is home.

Next is out wedding anniversary on the 21st, ten Christmas and new year and then I will be stood in an RAF Base waiting for him to land where we will get 2 wonderful weeks together before we start it all again!!

So - 2 occasions down... 3 to go until were armour half way ish point!!

Iv got 3 days to weigh in, so hopefully I will be able to squeeze another swim in now the babe is better!
If not not to worry, any weight I Havnt Lost this week will come off next week!

Proud to say that iv been 100% this week even with the stresses of baby being poorly and husband going through a right time of it..

Who knew i was this strong!

It honestly is as straight forward as breathing now, food doesn't enter my
Mind iv got too much else to do I think haha

With me beig alone most days, it would be so easy to eat eat eat and no one would ever know... But it's just not an option!

I finally feel respect for myself, I'm doing a good thing, not only for me but for my family too and come April, I will know why iv done all this when we are all stood there waiting and having pictures taken - pictures that I will proudly display on my livin room wall as i plan to love every last one!

Have a wonderful weekend xxxxxxxxxx

Re: Afghanistan weight loss diary! Please buy a poppy! Xx

Hi Lauren, just caught up with a week and a bit of your diary and your motivation and enthusiasm has rubbed off on me too - it's infectious. You are clearly in the zone and very determined. It will be amazing for you when Peter sees the transformation.

So it's Sunday!

Can't wait to see monday morning!

Downloaded a "5 minute ab work out" app on my iPhone and MY GOD thank god it was only 5 minutes !!

The plank - impossible for fat people - not only isn't impossible to hold 17 odd stone n your elbows and tip toes... My belly and boobs touchedthe floor hahaha

So another mini goal is to be able to hold the plank for the whole 30seconds of the work out by the time Peter comes home!

I may have to cut belly and booby holes in the floor but hey at least I will be "plank like" lmao!

The things im Doin to desperately prevent saggy belly apron!!!

Weigh in tomorrow! Wish me luck!

And good luck for all your weigh INS this week!

P.s I'm still laying where I failed miserably at the plank.... Can't move - abs won't let me!!!!

Someone alert the authorities there's an obese girl stranded without her shakes close To the patio doors and might die from over exposure to Cbeebies.. The remotes the other side of the room!!

Xxxxx
