Alpaca's stream of consciousness - IS BACK ON THE WAGON!

[Alpaca]

It is incredible what sugars/carbs do to me... I hardly piddled during the days I was eating like a demented rhino! Every ounce of moisture was stored like a camel - or a cactus! Lol

 

[Alpaca]

Have lost another 3lbs this morning - so 7lbs so far since Tuesday morning! Quite amazing really - I think I might really be a reservoir!! lol

I think my body is so sensitive to any changes that it probably explains why I'm so intolerant to sf stuff or alcohol - but its great to see that it's coming off so quickly.

I still have about 7lbs to lose before I get down to the weight I was in July - but am not stressing out about it. I've been wearing my baggy clothes cos I feel much more lumpy at the moment ... its really interesting how much more aware and sensitive I am to body changes - a year ago, my bedouin black tents were hiding absolutely everything so any changes didn't even register on any richter scale!

And, the event of yesterday - I bumped into an ex colleague who I worked with about 5 or 6 years ago and we hadn't seen each other since then. She didn't recognise me and I had to introduce myself to her!! lol

B - egg, bacon, coffee, soya cream

Well done Di on the loss, that's an amazing loss this week already! Wow on not being recognised, You must be so delighted with your achievement, have a fabulous day xx

 

[coffeelover]

Great loss Di, your really focused this week! you must be really chuffed at colleague's reaction.

All this talk of Wildebeest, rhinos and camels is making me hungry lol. x

 

[Dietkitty]

Well done Di! Can I order a wilderbeast salad please?

 

[moonlights]

That's a fantastic achievement, Di, and it's nice to hear you sounding less stressed about it all. I've been feeling stressed myself this summer but, we know it works as long as we keep on going, eh.

Hope you have some snacks with you today!

 

[Quak]

Afternoon Di, sorry I have been neglecting you all - nice to see you back on track and dropping the weight like a good 'en xxxxxx

 

[Alpaca]

You guys are so Scrummie! lol ... sorry Scrummie xx

Brennnnnnnieeeeeeeeeeee (((((((hugs)))))) ... lovely to see you! hope you're on track too?? xx

L - smoked salmon, rocket, olive oil, horse radish... and then I caved and had an Atkins shake... but not too much damage - just get the feeling that it might slow the loss.

Can't wait to get home tonight! lol xx

 

[stubbsey]

Congratulations on another great loss!! Soon have that last bit off n u will be back in credit so to speak!

Thing i find odd is when ever i lose weight i end up a different shape, when i quit ww n gained a stone, at the time i was my lightest with ww i was slimmer on my top than i am now, and now im lighter than i was then. Doesnt make sense really.

Well done, keep it going x

Ah no Di, lost the track completely, no satnav either - am going to try and just not put too much on till I get my head back in gear xxx

 

[sammy1]

Evening, great loss you really have got the focus back.

@stubsey I always loose from the top last. I am currently happy with the bottom half, but the top part needs to loose inches....hopefully that is what happens when the rest of the lbs go.

 

[Alpaca]

Sammy/Stubbsey, I'm the other way round!! Lol


Feeling a bit guilty with all the lovely well dones as it hasn't been difficult except when I wanted to eat that Wildebeest lol

I have slipped back into the mindset so far .., but need to take one day at a time as I did a bit more unpacking last night and found a bag a Haribos that had weirdly found its way into my suitcase lol ... Was in 2 minds to open it as I was starving but quickly threw it in the bin!! Phew ! Lol

D - poached salmon fillet with cucumber celery mayo vinegar and 58g of goats cheese

Now in the bath so I don't get up to mischief lol

 

[Alpaca]

Ah no Di, lost the track completely, no satnav either - am going to try and just not put too much on till I get my head back in gear xxx

Bless you Bren!!! I do so know where you're at!! And other than locking you in your room - which at times I've desperately needed someone to do for me to stop the incessant eating - it's a matter of waiting til the madness passes! If there's anything I can do just text me! Xxx

 

[Scrumbles]

Wow...another fab loss, Di! You're going to be back to your July weight in no time at the rate you're going!

So good to hear you sounding so positive, too! xxx

 

[moonlights]

I've had the haribo moments too - well done on throwing it away!

 

[sammy1]

I love haribos.............

 

[Alpaca]

Morning !


No downward movement today but that's absolutely fine ... I inadvertently had a big sip of sweetened soya milk yesterday - when I realised my error I threw the rest away but knowing A as i do, I might have caused a little halt in the downward movement.

Busy day in lots of different meetings in Soho and Noho! Lol

Have brought some baby bels with me as not sure where my food is coming from ...

Starting at le Pain Quotidien for delicious unsweetened soya milk latte and wifi connection - perfect combo lol ... Meeting a small business person for some strategy chat x

 

[ladyfelsham]

Morning lovely Di - and yahoooooooooooooo to the amazing loss for this week so far, you are so in the zone!

Hope the strategy chat goes well

 

[Dietkitty]

Is that a person with a small business or a small person with a business?

 

[Quak]

LOL @ Lisa, was thinking the same thing myself

Helllllooooooo Di, came to work with all good intentions today but got scuppered by the butty van at 10.30 - oh well.
Not sure anybody can do anything - life in general is really rubbish apart from a few bright sparks here and there and I think I am comfort eating in the true sense of the thing. Be reyt. B xx
