Bluegirls journey to ar*e island

I'm fan-blimmin-tastic, and it feels so much better than feeling bloated, full and hungover. Thanks for pointing me in spangles direction. I've found some of it useful. I'm looking at the "when you eat at the fridge...." which I'm finding really easy to read, short chunks I can pick up and read in the day. It's all helping to change how I view me, and view where and who I want to end up xx

I love when you eat at the refrigerator pull up a chair. It's really easy to digest pardon the pun.

So I'm off work now! No more mad traveling for me until new year!
 
Well done on enjoying - but not overdoing - the Xmas meal :) that's brilliant. I hope I can do as well on my days off this weekend! X
 
Oh god, my husband has just informed me that I have been "summons" to his work "do" which is in a very classy carvery (hahah, that means its a dive) oh no....tomorrow night too. My plan is to avoid all eating by drinking a giant pitcher of water, which I may explain away as a giant vat of vodka tonic and then nibble on some overcooked, probably 3 day old carvery turkey. GOD GIVE ME STREGNTH!
 
Oh snap same as me this week! I want moooore hehe but 2 is good really :) well done x
 
I have to tell you about my first bath in about a month. Don't worry I have been washing, but not had time for a lovely long soak. Well anyway, tonight was bubble bath, candles and my arse has shrunk so much it didn't cause a dam across the bath. How cool is that!

The water just passed by me like a was an island. I'm so blimmin chuffed!
 
That's blimmin amazing!

Loving the island of slim arse :)
 
I've written a big long tale about my falling out with the mother again, but deleted it twice. The detail isn't important, but after a row to end all rows I didn't binge. I wanted to. I 'needed' to, but I didn't. I went for a bath. Arse island rules!

Hope you've all had a good Sunday, as my fella keeps telling me, it will ll be over this time next week. Xx
 
Oh god I have been there! My mum and I very rarely row full on but we have other issues! But hey! So great you didn't binge!
Bath not binge needs coining into a motto don't you think?

I've run out of packs until tomorrow so I went for a walk and I've had chicken instead of packs 2 and 3 naughty I know but hey, what you going to do right?

I take it your fella isn't a christmasy kind of man? Mine is off to istanbul until Friday, which is great because he isn't into Christmas shopping at all, so it means I can get done without him moaning that he is hungry!

Hope arse island is getting smaller
 
He's not interested in the slightest, other than there are extra football matches on, which is good for both of us, but rather than being a grump he's a bit more against 'the Americanisation of Britain'. You know too many presents, too much money spent. No one remembers that we should be celebrating family and friends.

I guess when he opens something tasty on Christmas morning he'll be happy.

I'm at home this week, which is a real treat. I've been cooking too. Mince pies today, made pastry and everything - well just the pastry actually - and lo and behold between the big and the little man 11 have gone already!
 
Oh well mine isn't english to begin with, but that's What he can't handle, the rampant commercialism. He can't understand what we are focusing on either, he is like " you people are sick" why so you spend so much? Which after hearing we as a country spent 1.5 million a minute this weekend I have to agree with him.

have to say since marrying him I have changed totally in that regard. My spending is much less and so is the Christmas stress. We are having a quiet Christmas lunch here, followed by a drive up to loggerheads and a nice walk. Then there will mostly be a bit of relaxing with a smidgen of winter pimms (did I mention I am having the day off) And off to see the rents in the evening. No fuss, no stress. Except for me cooking.

I am making gingerbread men and women for the fan tomorrow!
 
That's such an achievement to not respond to the stress with a binge - we really gotta value these achievements even more than we value the weight losses we achieve each week!
 
Oh well done for not giving into a binge after a horrible row :( That is such a positive out of a crappy situation! I am like you and I turn to food usually in those times. I have friends who will say things like "Oh I was so upset, I didn't eat for 2 days" etc.. That is such an alien concept to me! Food or the act of making food made all the bad stuff go away for a short time. But then usually what happens after is not only do you feel bad because of the original problem you then lumber yourself with the "guilt" and bad feeling for taking comfort in food yet the original problem is still very much there. So good on you!! I know it sounds cheesy but that really is a big thing you overcame there!
 
Goodness me ladies, I have only been away from here for 4 days and I made it to page 2, you have been a busy lot! Did you think I'd defected?

I've just had a busy time at work and home. Sure I dont need to tell any of you about it. Real life, as apposed to working away and just swanning back when arguaments are over and shopping is bought is so much more difficult to manage especially on a diet.

I got whaled last night and had lost 1.5lb's, frankly anything other than a gain I would have been happy with. I am finding things tricky at the moment, but I know this diet works, I just need to get my head back into SS and I can do that from Boxing day onwards (well until new years eve).

So buscuits, cakes, mince pies, savory tarts made, shopping bought, presents wrapped, tree up then down again with it wrapped around one of my cats.

ITS CHRISTMAS!!!!!

Love to you all, you're an inspiration xxxxxx
 
Yay glad to have u back!
