[donna88]

dreading WI tomorrow, really hoping I loose :/ I should do but those unexpected gains really get me questioning everything even when I know Ive been on plan. Id love to loose 2lbs a week for the next 3 weeks but that never happens for me

Hi ladies

Donna don't get stressed by your little boy, kids are a mystery. You just need to stay calm,clearly state what you expect and be consistent he's still very young and learning the boundaries.
The way you talk about him I think he's adorable. My 9 year old is still pushing all my buttons but she really needs a lot of attention and sometimes it's hard to give her it all the time but she is understanding more and more what is acceptable its all a learning curve for us both xx
I do think its harder when everyone has an opinion your Mum should follow what you do he is your son, I have the same problem with my Dad my Mum goes along with me. Just remember you are a great mum x

Deb I've got left over chicken too and looking for inspiration for something to make with it tomorrow ??


Kim your doing so well wish I felt empty ;-) !!

Well I thought this week would be harder but today I've had far too many syns. I was up to 50/105 yesterday plus my night out sat and today I've had 23 today too oops

My girls have made me a lovely birthday cake !!!



Couldn't say no !!!!!

 

[donna88]

He is gorgeous bless him, he is so thoughtful and adorable most of the time but when he kucks off he kicks off (as all kids do) think i need to just ignore my mum a lot of the time to be honest, i just take a lot of what she says to heart, i always feel like im not good enough for her with the comments she makes and Im worrying now that shes starting to be like it with little one. I know she loves us both, but she has a very strained relationship with my sister, she cant argue with her or comment on things her kids do and it sometimes feels like because we're closer she can say whatever she likes.

i know every parent thinks this but he is very special and i just want to protect him from feeling how i feel with my mum sometimes, i dont want him to start thinking he isnt good enough for her.

i cant stop eating, still on plan but sooo much food.

Cake is adorable of course You couldnt say no how lovely. Doesnt sound like youve been too bad with your syns to be fair

 

[debtin]

awe ronnie loving your cakes..would melt your heart. of course you had to eat some..did you have good night out?

 

[debtin]

donna just you keep doing what your doing! your mum probably doesn't realise how she is at times. you know and can look out for any negativity if there is any. we all want cotton wool for them lol

 

[lilprincessvic]

Awww ronnie those cakes are so cute!!!

 

[debtin]

ok syn moan. how can i lose weight if i just had chewy delight bar as HE plus two...yes two gold bars? i know its "allowed" but feels wrong and binge like. not that i am moaning, just scared argh..still in the zone and loving it

 

[donna88]

yeah having kids has a lot more complications then you think doesnt it lol. I know i must be doing something right, even his teacher has told me he's lovely and its because of how hes been brought up.

Anyway sorry im going on a bit arent I



sooo looking forward to boyfriends birthday, dont really have any plans until then and i like having things to loook forward to. We have a few kids parties actually and im going to start stepping up my running training as well, hoping to actually get outside this weekend and be back to club on thursday (im going to club on tuesday but its indoor training so going to be easier to convince myself to go lol)

I want to start food planning more in advance as well, but it never seems to work for me as someone always throws a spanner in the works

good luck for weigh in everyone!!

 

[MidnightPrincess]

I've decided i'm going to book a couple weeks holiday from group, i just can't face the scales. I refuse to even peek at the ones at home. I've been feeling very down lately, and been comfort eating as a result. I know i should face the scales and ise that as motivation but atm it feels like too much pressure. My C is lovely and seems really understanding about it all. Just need to seriously sort myself out.

Sorry ladies, feels like i say that all the time recently, i swear i am trying... Sigh x

well I have 3 (one a week for the next 3 weeks haha) he hasn't had any invited this year and then got these 3 all within a couple of days of each other. I imagine I'll def get some extra body magic as I work at the school so the kids know me and get quite attached anyway lol. They're all lovely though.

Thank you

Don't worry we all over think it at times, I'm surprised I've not been overthinking it with last weeks gain, but I just don't seem as effected by it as I normally am to be honest.

Whatever you feel is right
You just need to make sure you get kick started while you have these holidays and don't let not getting weighed put you on the wrong track. I know you can do it though


I was up late today :/ just couldn't bring myself to get out of bed, little on seems in the same mood, sat eating a bagel and I've never seen him eat so slow (and he loves bagels had two yesterday one for breakfast and one for tea) we won't get to school on time at this rate... I don't want to rush him too much though has he has a habbit of panicing and saying oh I don't want it now and I want his tummy filled for school.

 

[MidnightPrincess]

Thanks Donna, just don't know whats gotten into me lately. I know i can do it, but i just keep emotional eating. If i'm bored i eat, if i'm upset i eat, if i'm happy i eat even more! Its ridiculous, and how i got to being overweight in the first place. I'd like to still blame christmas but i think i'm past that point now xD.

Awah blesd your little one, he seems like such a sweet kid x

 

[donna88]

It is difficult getting your head into it, we have to be in the right place, hopefully your there now.



Oh forgot to mention Morrisons rang me, which was a bit weird they could have emailed to be honest, apparently they're not planning on stocking the skinny lizzies in that store but my message has been passed onto the buyer and apparently there have been a lot of requests for them so hopefully they'll stock them in the future, they didn't say anything about the Morrisons change of recipe though. Such a shame they've not changed the meat free kievs recipe as well and they're now double the syns


Haha I can't wait to tell them at work how he was adamant it was his friend who wanted me back in the room and not him as we were all thinking aww bless him, someone was even trying to think of ways he could still see me at work

Aww I know how you feel that's how I was. You will find your motovation again at some point and it will click back into place.

Ive just been writing down my food today using my book to double check everything and just found out peas and sweetcorn are not free on red. I would have just been eating them so im glad I checked!

 

[donna88]

I always have to double check veg on red, in fact I don't see pea's sweetcorn and parsnips as veg anymore lol.


Got to school today and found out my little man is the star of the week. I'm so proud of him and he's so proud himself bless, the head came over to talk to me and when he left I gave little one a cuddle and he said ''I thought I'd never get star of the week'' he also asked what he'd done to get it which I think is lovely considering his age. I don't know what exactly he'd done yet will ask his teacher when I get chance, I'm really excited (its a little sad lol) means I have to go in about half 2 on Thursday to sit and have a cupcake with the stars of the week and the other parents then we get to go and sit in on the assembly where they get their certificates.
