Some people are just insensitive & are best ignored & don't let it bother you any further. A woman I worked with asked me if I was pregnant & then when I said no she said oh you're putting on weight!!!!! I just ignored her comment, she was a nasty person & nobody in the building liked her, or even spoke to her.

 

[Willbeslimjen]

Oh cookie that's horrible and I can say that there is no way anyone sensible would think that, you look so good. Ignore him!

 

[Texty_F]

What a complete and utter kn*b - maybe you should take a leaf out of his book and put a complaint in about him being offensive. What a sad man he must be

Dont let him get to you hun its what he wants - keep your chin up and rise above it your a much better person than he is x

 

[Geordieweightlossgirl]

What a horrible ****. Punch his nose! Some people just get off on being awful. Sending hugs hun x

 

[OpalLilyEats]

Awww Cookie, what an absolute plonker!! It's interesting what you say about him, that he's actually really sensitive and putting in complaints about people etc. Those people are the worst!! It just shows you what sort of insecure person he is, putting all his sh*t on other people.

I know it's easy to say and hard to do but don't let someone like that and the stupid, insensitive things they say annoy you. You are doing so fabulously well and looking fab in all your lovely pics. He is not worth a single second's thought xxx

[Willbeslimjen]

Ah cookie I had again of a pound too for the same reason, but just think if we are on plan till Christmas Eve what the scales will say next week as that gains not a true one. Hugs x

 

[Cookie21]

Thanks everyone, I'm feeling not too bad now. I had just started eating a bag if giant buttons when Brett came in which he took away, they weren't making me feel better, he gave two clementines instead and is really supportive, he's very good to me. I've got bolognaise cooking in the slow cooker for tomorrow night and I'm going for a nice bath.
Xxx

 

[jamjar15]

Aww bless him.... You'll feel loads better after your bath.. Enjoy xx

That man is so insensitive - even if you genuinely think someone is pregnant you wouldn't say it until they tell you!! There was a girl at my new work when I joined who was 7 months pregnant but I never would have asked her lol! I'm sure you look fantastic and he's just insecure and sad. And if he sees you eating lots of fruit and Hifi bars then you're following the plan and it's all good So having been on SW only 2 weeks, I got a shock when I put on 1lb this WI despite following the plan quite well. It's also my time of the month - do you find you get a gain every month from that? x

Hello Katie
Thank you for your kind words, I'm feeling positive again now, a new week ahead and I also love Christmas so onwards and all that. I do find that my weight around that time of the month is either a gain or if I'm I've stayed the same. Only on two very rare occasions since the plan I've been fortunate to achieve a 0.5lb loss. My fluid retention, bloat / pain levels vary before, during and after so I never know how I'm going to be, I try to prepare myself for a gain usually then anything other than that is a bonus, keep on in there, it's part of the journey but it won't undo all your hard work it'll just be a little diversion in our weight loss journey. xx

Good morning, I'm up very early this morning its weird because when Brett's alarm went off this morning at 5.45am, for some reason I thought it was my pal Gareth ringing me telling me I'm late for my lift to work. I thought I'd slept right through today and jumped straight into Saturday! How weird is that? Thankfully Brett is the one that had to get up not me so after a little doze, two cups of tea and a little stretching I'm ready to eat and go out.

I've made a list which makes me feel organised and I've a plan too! I'm feeling good, in fact I'm going to have a nice day, and I hope you all have a nice day too xx

 

[Geordieweightlossgirl]

Sounds like a nice day planned. Sorry about the gain. Its not like you and you have done amazing so far ! Last day for me til 2nd January boy do I need a rest!

 

[KatieCupcake]

Thanks for the words of advice - hopefully I can put the 1lb gain down to time of the month then. And probably fluid retention! My next WI is on Monday, her last before the xmas holidays so we'll see how that goes. Have a great Christmas!

Was it busy at the Trafford Centre? Xx

 

[Cookie21]

Hello, it was ok actually I was there for almost 10 mins though because my brother came with me and said I had to be quick, picked my order and came straight home. I've suggested to Brett we should go now and get some more bits but he said no.

I came home, did the grocery shop and wrapped up a couple of presents, posted some Christmas cards and popped next door to give my neighbour a Christmas pudding, we had 5! I've got one for Brett's mum, 2 for my mum as we'll be eating it there with her and one here for Brett to eat when he fancies it. I even made soup for my lunch at work tomorrow. A busy little bee me!

What have you and the boys been up to? Xxx

 

[Aquasharine]

Wow busy day Cookie but that was a bit tight on shopping time. Sounds quite a productive day though
