Hello
Had the photo shoot, which went well on the whole. We've chosen to have them black and white (more flattering!) a big one of the 10 of us and two smaller ones of the 4 grandchildren. We were so impressed with the photographer We're going to get more done of the 4 of us and our two dogs; we've never had a family photo done before. Definitely going to lose my weight before then though!
Have eaten lunch today, it was too a nice a day not to
We never go out for a family Sunday lunch these days so it made a real treat. Day 1 AGAIN tomorrow but I don't regret it one iota!
Hope you all had a lovely day.

hi cheb,
i reckon you handled ur convo with ur son beautifully. nice when it happens naturally, eh?
apparently, Einstein, jane austin, beethoven, van gogh, henry ford, mozart, mark twain, isaac newton and thomas edison had AS so i think it can definately be a gift. (yes i looked up the condition and found all that out as i didnt know what it was )
whats more, he has u to help him get thru the more negative side and with tha in mind, i reckon he will be just fine.
xxxxxx
PS...do we get to see these pics?

A fresh fresh start, just been out with the dogs, drunk 1/2 litre of water and just having a frothy coffee with a vanilla pack. I have my soup packed for lunch time and I'm set for a very sucessful day SSing.
Watched The Truth About Size Zero yesterday and something really hit a nerve. The doc was talking about how Louise must re-introduce food in order to re-gain the weight but to ensure she gained it back as lean muscle tissue and didn't increase her body fat percentage. Well that's what I've been doing for over a year! These days I can gain 4lb through just one average but unplanned meal. If I don't stop I'll be one huge fat cell!.
So I must SS properly and then stabilise properly. RIGHT off we go then, back on the wagon.

Hello
It finally dawned on me today that it's only 35 days until I go to Dubai.......OMG I need to shrink my lardy bum and quick!!!!
The last time I went to Dubai I weighed about 16st and had my own exclusive camel unlike the rest of the party, who had 2 to a camel. Was my camel particularly weak? Mmm I think not though I probably tried to convince myself that that was the case. Oh and there was the incident when our rubber ring thingy became grounded at Wild Waadi Water Park, the lifeguard couldn't get us afloat so 2 guys came out of the queue to help!!!!!
Well it was supposed to be VERY different this time, I was supposed to be slinky minx! Not feeling like that at the moment although I'm 4st lighter I'm still much heavier than my lightest and I feel huge. Plus none of my lovely girly clothes fit me.:sigh:
35 days of SSing it is then............Ok so far.

hey cheb,
came across your thread and wanted to give you a standing applause for how you have perserved with your weightloss -- despite having many things going on at once.
I am orginally from the States, and have worked with many children with Asperger's. If you need any advice etc. feel free to ask...and you're right in not letting society 'label' him...you are his best advocate!
keep up ur great work --

Thursday 15th March, 34 days to go.
Morning All
I got through day 1, just a few wobbley moments when the old CB was yelling in my ear to put off day one until Sunday. But I can shout REALLY LOUD TOO!!!!!!!
I went out for the day yesterday with a friend and it would have been very easy to have cake with my coffee.
Nothing much likely to throw me of track today, I'm off to work then straight up the gym for Body Pump followed by yoga.
Tomorrow is my Mum's birthday, we're out for lunch and getting together with the whole family in the evening for a meal. I'm planning a tummy upset, if I say I'm on packs they'll just sigh and say that I can take the night off cos I usually do! Easier just to tell a porky, less aggro that way.
Out for a girly night on Sat, just to a friends for a DVD and take away, without the Take away
So all in all not the best week to get serious but IT'S ONLY 34 DAYS TIL MY HOLIDAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
If I don't knuckle down to SSing I'll be naked on that camel cos I have no summer clothes to fit me.

Thank you Nina, Guess you just get on and deal with what ever life throws at you.
I may take you up on your offer of advice the next time a question pops into my head.

Thanks for stopping by, not sure why I haven't been posting really
Time probably, seem to have been out and about a lot last week.You're very welcome to the rep, there's a thread on the technical forum that gives more details but to approve (or disapprove) of a post you click the scales on the bottom left under the posters details.
I'm off to bed now and am too knackered to catch up my diary now but the important thing is that after a blip last weekend I've now been 100% SS since Wed, I'm in the pink and feeling strong.
Hope you're doing great too, and thanks again for looking me up

Hello
Not been around much so need to catch up, where to start....
Took DD to see her first live gig last Wed, well When I say took her, I saw her in the door safely then sat round the corner drinking tea in Wetherspoons. She went to see My Chemical Romance at the Brighton Centre, she loved it. Bit of a milestone for her.
Nothing much else really, went to work and slaved too hard! Walked the dogs, took DS to the Saturday Morning Cinema, shopping, housework blah, blah, blah.
Saturday was quite exciting cos the boiler caught fire It happened when I was out but fortunately MIL and DD were home to stop the house going up! Counting our blessings that's for sure, it doesn't bare thinking about if we'd all been out. So that's a bill I could do without but at least we're all safe.
Oh and the toilet pan cracked and broke this morning.....promise it wasn't my incresed weight!
Ho hum, these things are sent to try us.
Dietwise? It's great, I'm really back in the zone and feeling pink Have SSed 100% since last Wed and have dropped 6lb so far, maybe I won't be nake don that camel after all!
HUgs to you all.
