ButtErFlies-In It To Win It

[claira07]

helllllo ladies,
course you can add my butterflies.... x
i have had a lovely day at the zoo. made a masive picnic for my mum niece and little boy, and my mum was sooooo proud of me for having a tetra only, she bought icecreams and me a coffee.... shattered now though.
i have 3 sips of coke zero if my partner has one which isnt often and a little bottle of sparkling water if in out for a meal, i dont think it takes you out of ketosis but can make you bloated, anyway thats all answered, how are you all xxxx

Hi everyone, sorry I haven't been on for a couple of days but I’ve been training for the new job when I would normally have wed, Thursday and Friday off. Mum and dad have gone away so having to go around there to look after the horse and water the plants, so by the time I got in cook tea for my son and have a shower its bed time.

I’ve just come in from the garden, was too hot earlier to put the bedding plants out, they are done now so that’s one job less.

I’ve had to change my weigh in day because of the new job, Sunday night now instead of Monday night. So only a six day week for the weight loss this week, hope I’m not disappointed.
I’ve had bars this week so hope they haven’t made any difference as well.

Not going to Florida any more, going to Mexico (hope I don’t get swine flu) knowing my luck I will.

Hope you Butterflies are all well and loving life and CD.

I was going through a rough patch earlier as I'm home alone, hubby out at a birthday dinner and I'm baby sitting. The kitchen is so tempting - but I keep telling myself there is no point in cheating as I'd only be cheating myself and I don't want to do that. Think I'll go to bed early.

Ended up getting a bit sunburnt today even though I came in from the sun after an hour - really don't have the skin for the weather we are having - but I love the sun!!! Makes me feel so alive!

Broxi I have a few more social engagements this coming month so I'll have to keep the will power up. I'm on local primary school board of governors and they are opening a new resource centre - with a nice lunch... could be tricky. Also another girls night out... and then a week of holidays.

thanks , i just measured myself to perk me up and gained 2 inches, and gained 1/2 lb today, can my totm do that to me,
think ive been on such a high, ive suddenly come down with a bang xxx

 

[Zoe.D]

Hi Claira, I would say it was due TOTM. It's probably down to fluid retention and with the weather being hot as well. It will probably have shifted by you weigh in so don't be too hard on yourself. Zoe x

You are better just weighing yourself in the morning as you get heavier as the day goes on - with all the water etc. As for TOTM - yep, I know I get bloated so I wouldn't take those measurements to heart. Even if you don't lose so much this week, you will lose extra next week.

 

[claira07]

i need to stop weighing every morning, im just being needy, gonna chill with partner and have a cuddle and watch a movie- on broxis say so.... cheers luv,
thank you zoe for making me feel a little better, hope you all have a good evening and will catch up tomorrow, ..... but i may pop back if film is pants xxxx

 

[claira07]

Hi all,
Claira, I did that the other night but it is impossible to put weight on on this diet. It must be heat making you retain fluid.
Did you all see Britain's Got Talent? I was pleased diversity won. Although as a Scot I should've wanted Susan Boyle but I think she's a bit nutty.
Claira, I get mood swings all the time on this diet. Does everybody feel like that? I think it is very hard psychologically. I know I'm not really in a normal place just now. I am much more up and down and also much more unsociable and I'm not eally wanting to do anything or go anywhere which isn't like me. I think I'm terrified of getting tempted. I don't know how you lot do it, cooking for your families. I couldn't! My son is about to get malnourished with my husband's rotten dinners- tinned macaroni cheese and chips- how rubbish and totally unhealthy!

 

[broxi]

When does everyone weigh in?

 

[claira07]

ok i feel better you made me kind of smirk, nearly a smile...xxx
ps glad diversity did it, they were cool x

Thank God its not just me! Had a lousy day today, got all weepy about three times and went to bed on the sunniest day this year so far! Had bad news about car's MOT, a plumbing prob, and just general money worries really, but its definitely not like me to feel so sorry for myself, and staying in when its sunny? Never. My emotions are far more raw. I imagine this is because I'm not eating them with a round of cheese on toast. Finding my emotional side a real pain in the arse to be honest. Now I've got to deal with it.

This is a positive thing. But blimey it's hard.

Well that's something! I'll tell you a story to make you laugh hopefully.

There were 3 girls called Broxi, Claira and Louie lou. They all got run over by a bus and died. When they got to heaven God says"you'll love it here but be careful you don't step on the pink clouds" Next day Claira and louielou were polishing their haloes when Broxi appeared with a big repulsive ugly man. He was about 6'6'' and about 9 stone. He had buck teeth spots and warts and long greasy hair. Absolutely repulsive. Claira and louie lou cried out, "what happened?" and Broxi replied, "Yuch, I stood on a pink cloud." Next day Broxi and Claira were singing in the heavenly choir when Louie lou appeared with an even uglier grunter than the one from the day before. He was 5'2'' and 22st, had a greasy comb over and no teeth. He was stinking! Claira and Broxi cried, "What happened?" to which louie lou replied "I stood on a pink cloud". Next day Broxi and Louie lou were combing their wings when Claira appeared but she was with a gorgeous hunk. He was a cross between George Clooney and Bad Pitt- 6', perfect toned body, huge blue eyes and a stunning smile with beautiful white teeth against his sunkissed face. Broxi and Louie lou shouted "What happened?" to which the hunk replied, "Yuck, I stood on a pink cloud!
