ButtErFlies-In It To Win It

night vicky, love the new pic you look younger x
 
Hi everyone, sorry I haven't been around this week. I've had an up and down one. C had a booster jab on Tuesday and was a bit unwell after it, she was sick on Wed morning, then developed a temperature. Once she got over that she was in a grumpy mood due to teething. Also up to 3 days now at work and I'm finding it tiring. Dear knows how I'll cope once I'm full time again.

My cat went missing yesterday - didn't come home for dinner last night, so we printed out fliers and put them through all the neighbour's doors today. Turns out she'd gone through a cat flap into a garage belonging to our next door neighbours. They are on holiday so when their relations came to water the plants they saw the flier and thought to check the garage. The cat had got into the garage but couldn't get out again because of the setting on the flap. So relieved that she's ok - was in the doldrums all day because she was missing.

WI yesterday - lost 3lb, so it's going slowly but surely... I'm now overweight :D:D:D:D:D:D:D

I have a confession to make though - I've had some chicken curry tonight and a glass of wine. Felt the need to celebrate the return of our cat... at least that's my excuse!

I'm half way to goal now - just hope I can get back on the straight and narrow now and not start to sabotage myself.

Welcome F&C this is a great thread full of people who can motivate and encourage you.
 
hello luv, tought you were quiet, 3lb is good, make the curry and wine your halfway marker, now fresh start tomorrow, for second half, well done for getting to half way point,
glad the cats safe and c feeling better xx

It's a bank holiday here tomorrow so going to go out and about for the day, avoiding the parades though. Hope to get some good weather and find somewhere nice to go a walk.

Hope you've all had a good weekend.

Off to bed now.
 
After hearing what everyone had to say and how they get treated by their CDC's, it gave me the courage to go for it.

AlreadyLovely - well done on making the change, it is a big step, and I am sure it will pay off for you - as you will get lots of support!!

3 lbs - wow!! that was good! Hope C is getting better!

I am glad you found your cat - and in time for no harm to be done. I think I would have also had a little treat after all you have been through this week!!

Tomorrow is the start of another week - so I am sure you will make up for it!!

Funny story!

Right I think I have got back to you all now!! So here goes:

My loss has slowed so I thought it was time to get out my Wii and do some exercise........

My Wii Fit batteries has died so I decided to play Wii Tennis. I was having a great time, winning a few games, and I was at match point............

So I went for the winning shot - pull my had back, put full force into the swing - and bang! My hand came into to contact with my slow cooker which was sitting on the sofa (I had lent it to someone). So my middle finger is swollen, black and blue - and looks like a carrot compared to the rest of my fingers which look like runner beans!! ha ha ha.

That will teach me to try and get fit!!

I don't think it is broken, just very swollen and bruised!! ha ha! To be fair, I can't be bothered to sit in A&E - as they will only strap it anyway.

What a wally I am!!

So the message to you all is - be careful when you decide to exercise!

I hope this all makes you smile - the Wii is switched off again - ha ha.

Morning all!

How is your finger LadyB? It sounds very painful! I am off to work now. I am having another busy week ahead of me, but on Saturday I am off to a very lazy holiday!!! Can't wait!
 
Good morning peeps! Just thought I'd pop in before I get off to do my daily grind!! Have a fab CD day and be positive, confident and happy!!!!! You're all fab whether you're flying high or struggling or somewhere in between - go for it today!!!!!! xxxxxxxx
 
Good morning Ladies

Wowwww, after reading the posts, its been hard to play catch up Claira, you are doing really well hunni. I love the ss+, now gone up to the 810 plan this week, in time for my hols. Grabbed 2 packs of tofu Claira from Morrisons, it was only 68p a pack. Freezed both and got one out last night to defrost, will have that tonight with mushroons and pak choi.xx

Witchy, how is the new baby settling in with you? Do the kids all get on well? I love babies xx

Beachball, what a loss, well done you :). xx

Wannabe, well done on deciding to change your CDC. I am a little concerned about mine at the moment, not sure I should feel bullied into lossing 3 - 4lb every week.

Shopaholic, glad to see you back on here, have missed you posts xx.

Bethan, nice to see you've joined the sit up challenge hun, on our way to flatter bellies, lol. Bethan, can't believe you did your finger in on the Wii fit, hope it feels better soon. All that work up to do your keep fit as well and you was winning at tennis, sods law. At least we can still do the sit ups xx

Witchy, that is too long with no support from a CDC, go onto the Cambridge site and searh for other CDC's in your area, even if you went fortnightly to have a WI, that would be better then nothing. Did you have to buy all of your packs in advance too? It's so much to find to pay out for all those weeks. Don't think that's right.xx

Zoe, how are you doing hun? xx

Asa, hows things with you? Bet you are looking forward to your hols. only just got your message so will reply to you in a bit, sorry for delay, but can't get on here at the weekends anymore. Kids hog the internet at the new house, and my laptop won't give me wireless there for some reason, I get on and it logs me off, lol. xx

Welcome Vicki, you'll enjoy our family ofbutterflies here, as thats what its become now to me, great support and lovely girls. xx

Broxi should be back this week shouldn't she?

Will try and catch up with the other posts and get back on here later. xxx

Nikki, strange that your CDC tells you how much she thinks you should loose?

How long will you be on Barbados? I am really jealous of that trip :D. Anyone elses trip coming up? I am leaving in one week. So that will be nice, I can sure use the holiday now! Have been really stressed out.

Hi Asa.. Yes, I think so too, is this normal part of a counsellor's session for us??

I'm on hols for 2 weeks, but staying overnight the night before at a Hotel at Gatwick as we have a very early flight. I so can't wait, lol. Bet you can't wait either Asa, I'm sure your hols to Croatia will be so de-stressing for you. We'll both come back refreshed and be ready to get back on track straight away too. xx
 
Just a reminder girls, if you've not done so already, please go to our Social Group and under the Birthday discussion, add your birthday. Its nice that we all remember eachothers on here, we spend so much time chatting about things we do and we've become like a family on here now, so lets remember to wish each other a happy birthday too :) xxx
