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

[Dietkitty]

Afternoon Di. How's it going today? Are you off doing the MIL visit?

 

[Alpaca]

Lisa! Don't even go there!! I am feeling SO evil tonight! Just returned from one of THE worst days with the ex MiL!!' she has played up something chronic all day and I'm completely frazzled ...

Surprisingly I've kept to Atkins!!! In the past I'd have reached for major carbs and chocolate and alcohol ...

Am SO wound up! Lol

Hope everyone has had a good day!! Am going to bed to watch a vid lol

 

[Alpaca]

Morning everyone

I'm feeling much better today - have slept all the evil thoughts away! Lol

B - Atkins shake
L- Atkins shake
D - m&s sausage and cabbage and spinach & mushroom

Hope you all have a good day

Afternoon Di, never apologise for venting in your own diary, that is what they are here for! And yes I do know exactly how you feel, it isn't nice but you have made a good start with Susie and Katie
big hugs to ya :hug99: xx

Sorry about this next post - please don't read it as its self indulgent clap trap ...

Oh big hugs hun, you are so not silly or self indulgent - just being realistic about how London can be quite isolating! It happens all too easily, things are cruising along socially and then people move away/get married/have kids.

Anyways, you have my phone number - even if we can't meet up we can ring and natter

Morning Di, how come you are still seeing the ex MIL then love?

I'm not good at endings and I've convinced myself that as she's my kids only grandparent it's important to keep the relationship going - trouble is we all find her so tricky! Ha ha

Thanks so much Bren! Susie and Katie are lovely as are everyone on this site ... And after venting I started to feel better!! Lol Just shows what a bit of letting off steam can do! Hope you're having a good day x

 

[Alpaca]

Thanks Susie! You're so right - I really didn't pay any attention to what the impact of what my friends were doing would have on me and actually while I was busy gaining weight - a really self-indulgent full time habit - I didn't really care or have the energy to think about the implications ... As far as I was concerned life had basically ended and I was just there for when I was needed to help out or support ... I wasn't worth anything more than that! Lol

Anyhow ... Here I am x

Glad your feeling better - I know what you mean about your Ex-MIL - mine broke her ankle 2 years ago and along with working a 60 hour week and having a family of mine own to look after - I was doing her shopping and cleaning - must have mug written across my forehead xx

[Quak]

Glad you are feeling a bit better xx

 

[Alpaca]

Morning all... Well I'm up a pound and a half from posted and not really sure why... So more focus is needed today me thinks ...

Thanks Bren ... Just a blip thankfully no more wallowing for a while I hope! Lol

B - Atkins shake
L - ditto
D - sausage spinach cabbage with a bit of cheese (I need to use it up) ... No more cheese this side of Christmas once I've had whats left in the fridge! Lol

Hope you all have good days

 

[Jim]

Morning Di, ah of course, I hadn't thought you had children somehow.

 

[triage999]

Morning Di!!! I think we are all going on a cheese famine.... I too have been consuming far too much!

And I was a pound n three quarters up Sunday but it's mysteriously disappeared as quickly as it came!!

Although after last nights choc n wine binge it'll be back at some point I'm sure, although not this morning so trying to do a damage limitation day today! xx

Afternoon Di, I have gone up today for no apparent reason too, must be something in the water!!! xx

Hi Di. Just stuck a note on susies diary - hope we are meeting for dinner saturday
Xxx

 

[Alpaca]

Hi folks... I've been eating like a demented banshee since I got home from work!! Have no idea what's wrong with me but I'm feeling anxious and that's when I lose control... Thankfully it's all legal stuff - its just volume ... Like the size of an aircraft hanger !!!

Have to stop now - just cos I've finally got rid of the 'itch' or whatever it's called... Will stay on water til bedtime now !

Katie... Yes I am looking forward to Saturday!!!

Jim ... Yep I have 2 'children' both living with me at the moment with their respective g/f b/f... I'm a bit like that 80s sitcom when the parents have a house full of grown up kids! Lol ... Today I got home to find a Chinese laundry in the living room... All my son's shirts hanging up on the bit between my kitchen and living room (very convenient - not! Lol) and his g/f has her blouses hanging up on the windows! Lol ... I thought I was coming back to the wrong house! Lol

I think it's the earth's gravitational pull lol x

Evening Di - I hope you've had a good day - I often come home to a Chinese Laundry too having a 19 & 22 year old at home - shame they can't do the house work too x
