Step 1 Sole Source Confessions of a serial CWP returner

[MinnieMel]

Evening Nat,

I'm so sorry to read that your husband may have a heart problem. I hope you et answers soon and it's not dire. Well done on striving to continue with so much happening. I like the chocolate cherry and lemon yogurt, plus the mango orange but I found the rhubarb revolting. I do like my shakes as mousses or is it mices?

 

[bettiesrevenge]

To be honest mel, it feels like we are finally getting answers after so many nondescript hospital visits, so many fantom chest pains, but it's very sobering. Puts everything into perspective. especially as it's something that often goes undetected until a near death or death experience. Really sad.

But it's just made me think - I have to be 100% fit and healthy for my girls and I. I have to invest in taking care of myself so I am not causing this moapy self indulgent crap to myself. We have to have a healthy, stress free environment for the betterment of everyone at home, not just DH but particularly for A and H who are finding this all very bewildering. Not that they know the detail, but the fact that he has been in hospital for 10 of the last 30 days in 2 spells says something isn't right.

Anyway.... Chocolate cherry mice is nice
Mel!!!! Got a Brita water bottle which is making the water soooo much easier!!!

Awww sorry to hear about your husbands medical issues right now xx

I totally hear what you are saying about being healthy and fit for the little ones, all this stopping and starting malarkey is getting us nowhere.

The time is now! xx

Nat in all this time I've been calling u Betty lol

Morning Nat,

Is that one of those bottles with the built in filter? That would be handy to take to work.

Surely, you can talk things over with H. It might better is she wasn't "wondering".

Are you finding time to do any fitness.
In June I'll post the link to the monthly fitness challenge?

Hello ladies

Well 2 products down. 2 to go.

Mel - I've talked things through with H but she's super sensitive so not gone into great detail about the potential impact. I just play doc mcstuffins with alara......

I forgot my water bottle mel!!! It is the one you thought, but In my fridge at home.... Boo.

How you doing Nat? Hope you remembered your amazing bottle today!

 

[bettiesrevenge]

Hey Jo!!!

I did but was stuck doing performance reviews today so didn't drink nearly enough!!

 

[Jo1989]

Ahh thats annoying for you, but if you stayed on plan good for you Hope today was another good day.

 

[bettiesrevenge]

Today had been great until I got sidetracked by poor planning and a terse management meeting - no shake for me!!! However tonight I feel ok. I may actually be in ketosis. I'm a bit more energetic than usual.

Hmmm here is hoping!!

 

[Jo1989]

Ahh thats fantastic! Once you're there it'll get so much easier, as you know Some days I get sidetracked and have a stupidly long break in between packs but sort of forget about it now the hunger is gone.

Fingers crossed you wake up in the morning with stinky breath!

 

[bettiesrevenge]

Yes I did!!!! But then I went a bit mad and are some buttons at lunch!!!! I don't know what is up with me sometimes...

 

[Jo1989]

Some buttons won't do you much harm. As long as you can treat those little slips as just that - little - but stay on track otherwise it'll all click into place in the end.

 

[bettiesrevenge]

Today was much better. A hike up the uk's biggest waterfall helped a lot. Think I'm going to go and stay there for a few weeks this summer. It's so utterly amazing. The negativity just evaporated when I got there. Lush!!!!

Sounds lovely. Did Alara make the hike!

 

[bettiesrevenge]

Alara led the hike mel!!! She is a right adventurer. I've had to get her some proper walking boots. She is really committed to hill walking and picnics!!! I had some olives and some soya milkshake for energy but other than that yesterday was a solid day. Feel ravenous today though!!!

That's fantastic - what a great family day out.

That's the problem with fitness . . . it does seem to stimulate the appetite. Try some flavored tea.

Hi mel & Jo!!!

Well today I dared take a "before" picture. I think that means that I'm commuted to 21 days of life affirming behaviour change. Got my slimpods at the ready. Going to see how I go.

Slim and save spaghetti was an utter disappointment tonight. Yuk!

I have my first interview for this new job on Wednesday. Absolutely kakking myself. So in celebration I've coloured my hair strawberry blonde!!! Hahaha I think I must be mad!

 

[bettiesrevenge]

Here is my "before" picture... Of course it's after! But whatevs....it's after I lost lots of weight and gained it all back...

Whoever has got my waist can I please get it back?

I love your new hair color and what an awesome bed frame! You don't look too dreadful, but compared to the after from the before before . . . I'm sure you feel you do. Brave lass - you deserve that "Brave" red hair!

Good luck with the job!

How is DH? Any health news?
