Consolidation ChrisR Consolidation journey = 280 days

Hi Chris, sounds like you are back on track and well done for your loss this week!!
 
Whoops, that sent as I was trying to write something!

Don't beat yourself up about the gain, conso is really tricky, you start to bring back the things that helped us get bigger in the first place, it sounded so lovely when we were on cruise, but in reality it is v hard work. Well done for getting back on track with it!

I am trying alternate day fasting now as I just couldn't get back into the swing of Dukan. 20 ish lbs to lose again (silly me!!!) but it'll come off.

Take care! Xoxox
 
Love hearing your back on it with a good loss....... I found it really hard to admit my gain too - could only do it when I had lost most of it again.... It seems to be much easier to stick with Dukan when you are in work and in a routine - I find my days off can be tricky but if I am working and at home I don't struggle usually - just silly stuff like birthdays etc!!!! LOL! Hope you had a lovely Friday and have a nice weekend planned...... I have this wedding but other than that just work!
 
Saturday 8/9 PV
Had a lovely day at the Trafford Centre yesterday with my brood + 1 adopted brood (LOL) didn't buy anything but could have spent at least a thousand pounds and that was just on my lovely Rebecca. Bought a Cath Kidston pencil case for my best friend in Switzerland (a little surprise in the post for her) Today is MrR's company BBQ in Wales so a lovely afternoon in store. I remember having traumas of what I was going to wear last year ........ None this year.

Oh girls have a look at Next online offers, loads of bargains linen tops/trousers etc half price. Rebecca and I enjoyed ourselves yesterday morning both laptops on while she chose a few things for the start of her course/placement next week.
decided its PV for the weekend and Monday and Tuesday will be PP.
Food wise was good yesterday: muffins. omelette, chicken & veg stirfry
Today: muffins, BBQ? roast chicken & roast veg
Sunday: muffins, lean bacon & eggs, toms, roast pork & veg

have a lovely day in the late summer sun :)
 
Sounds like a fabulous day ahead Chris. I think my love of shopping had returned with the weight loss. Wish a shopping spree money ni object was an option xxx

Oh I know Sid, we need to find mega money for replacement windows and doors its a ridiculous amount of money ......... Would love to go into Selfridges and John Lewis knowing I could buy whatever - love both shops I'm a funny fish though, love the home ware dept and John Lewis Haberdashery!
 
what a gorgeous day it has been sitting in the Welsh sunshine. Lovely company and lovely food. Apparently its supposed to be as nice again tomorrow, hope so, if it is then its another BBQ I think. I drove home so I'm tired now TV is rubbish so its an early night. The house resembles a bomb site so plenty of tidying to do tomorrow :(
 
Hope you had a good recoup day today Chris and a lovely Dukan day too..... Loving this late summer sunshine but also love the fresh mornings too - must be the longest we have gone without rain for a while!!! Hope that doesn't jinx it! What's the plan for your Monday??? So are you on a three day week or have I got that wrong? Budgets are meant to be stretched aren't they - I keep of thinking oh what the hang, I am gonna have this and that - saving can happen next week or next month!!! Perhaps not the most healthy attitude to have!LOL - mind you I do have some very pretty dresses! hee, hee!

My official time table starts from this week - a 4 day week with Monday being my day off. My longest day will be Friday ERM not sure about that one ........ Three days would be great, my contract is to work 25 hours per week over 33 weeks just cant fit 25 hours in a week because of how the courses are structured. A colleague/friend broke his arm yesterday falling over a wall whilst gardening so the timetable might just change before it even gets off the ground.

Same here with clothes I'm collecting a parcel from Next of bargains Ive got for Rebecca and me from the sale later. Some might just get returned! But I doubt it - LOL
 
Monday 10/9 PP

Had a good weekend, gorgeous weather makes it so much enjoyable. Heavy rain later :( A few jobs to do today then out with my beautiful girl checking out where her placement is from next week. She starts her PGCE course next week so all is going well with my daughter. My son is working so hard and I'm so very proud of him, I knew he would turn himself around but I do feel guilty for having a go at him at times but I was so worried about him leaving Uni etc.

Today is muffins, bacon & eggs, roast chicken, spicy beef kebabs
 
chris dont feel guilty for being a good mum! ofcourse you was bound to worry with him leaving uni (ARRGGHH) ok so you have had a go at him a few times but any mother worth her salt would do the same i am sure of it. glad to hear both the kids are doing so well xx

p.s bacon and eggs i am thinking that is sounding good!! xx

tell me about it ... on the other hand tho imagine if someone brought out a parenting manual ... hmmm dont think i would pay any attention to it ... not for a second!
 
There are loads of "manuals" advice guides n the like, they're all rubbish, no two children are the same, nor are any parents :) - just gotta follow your heart and act in their best interests :) - from the way you talk about your children Chris I can tell you are a wonderful Mum :)

Hope you're having a great day xx
 
all seems to be going well chris xx :)
 
Chris uni is not for everyone. Hes doing great. With parents like you Chris and MrC ....how can he not!!!!!!!
