Day 1 tomorrow

[LizzRob]

Morning ladies!

Boo to no signal Autumn!!! How was the meal last night? Hope you had fun!

Tigg, its exciting moving house! she says....lol. Ok the house hunting bit is exciting. My mate managed to scale it down from 101 to 6 to view asap....and they are gorgeous! Boo to him having so much money!

Tink, thats super!!! you still being 100%? I'm struggling with clothes at the moment. I have very little choice as everything keeps getting discarded as its too big....which i know it good but its also super annoying to be throwing out so many clothes!

Well this week is just going from bad to worse, so how i am managing to stay on plan is beyond me. Professionally and personally, its the worst week i've had for a while, and being in work just feels painful. Thankfully i'm leaving the depot at 3 today and then tomorrow i get to finish at 3.

Morning everyone. Well my weigh in was good I'm back to 9stone 3lbs! All extra Italian holiday weight is gone. Yay!

Well done on staying with it Lizz despite the difficulties you're having. You have a house move yourself soon! That must be exciting.

Shame about the lack of connection autumn. But hope it all went/is going ok?

Tinks that's great! 2lbs off already it'll be like you were never away!

Yep still being 100% - and having my little whizz on my bike each evening aswell!!

I'm sorry your having such a difficult week -- well done for staying on plan while things are so difficult for you my lovely!! Is it emotional problems your having at work?? I hope whatever it is resolves quickly and at least when it does you will feel so much better for at least keeping the diet part in control!! And you will definitely feel great with another loss next week!! Despite everything else being upside down - sending u a hug n hoping things improve asap xx

Tigg incredibly jealous of your weigh in!! Well done you!! It can be so hard getting back on track after a hols but we did it YAY!!! Is that your goal weight?? xx

 

[LizzRob]

Wow Tigg that is superb! Just goes to show how much it works! what plan are you on now?

Thanks ladies for the supportive words. I always struggle when i'm ploughing through chaos.
house:the change of day at the start of the week, generally having to get it organised, packing, and the money its costing...
work: it was like a witch hunt yesterday and i have to face all the ar5eholes tomorrow in a meeting which i am dreading...
My ex husband: He's being a t055er re Freya because I asked him to attend sports day in my place because of moving and he said "my world doesn't revolve around Freya, i have other responsibilities you know, i dont have to jump just because you say so" to which Freya promptly burst into tears and then the argument that kicked off from that. And then he's told her he will only talk to her in private now and i'm not allowed in the same room....!!! I should say that he's not been to a sports day, Christmas play, award ceremony, parents evening etc since we split in 2010. Yes he lives 60 miles away, but 1 occasion a year wouldn't kill him, and he wont do 1 every 4 years!

its been a vile week already. The ONLY thing stopping me from staying in bed all day is Freya. I just feel exhausted

I have a hosp appointment at 4, then i'll go and collect Freya and of course do my pilates and then take myself up to bed to try and recover

Sorry for the rant there amigo's!

I've a training course next week so I've a few days of step 2 and then up to step 3. My goal is 9 stone. I'm 5'2" on a good day, first thing in the morning. So being quite short means carrying extra weight shows a lot. Once I'm properly maintaining I think anywhere between 9 and 9 and 1/2 stone will be good enough for me. With 9 and 1/2 being my ceiling weight.

Lizz that really does sound like a rubbish week! So proud that you stuck with the plan and haven't punched someone! You can always rant at us and I hope it helps you feel a bit better about things. Anything I can do to help just shout!

I love that you're 5'2" on a good day! lol what are you on a bad day? lol i think its really good to have a ceiling weight. I never did that before, which means i never corrected. I went by "how my jean felt" and they just have give in them so they felt fine haha!

Thank you hun! It does help. I hate seeing Freya sad, especially when its at the hands of her father....no one should endure that. Thankfully she has loads of people that love her out of choice and would walk heaven and earth for her, so that does occasionally make up for her fathers lackings....but its not the same.

Do you happen to know a hit man? lol xxx

On a bad day I feel very short and circular!

I'm a forensic scientist I know all sorts of evil things and how to get away with them! I hope Freya is ok. She's very lucky to have you.

 

[Autumn76]

Hello am back shattered sleep
Deprived and hot and sticky.
Why is it I disappear for a day and so much happens.
Lizz you're doing great to keep going with all these bad vibes and people around you. Just keep focussing on the new house and stuff them all.
Tiggs I'm jealous you're back to pre holiday weight and Tink is doing so well too.
I'm seeing CDC tomorrow but am having a blind weigh I don't want to know I will ask the Friday after.
I've got lots of admin to do either tonight or first thing as my sec is going away for two weeks after tomorrow so need all my patient letters doing etc. I really can't be bothered but needs must xx

Haha you are handy! Evil laugh!!!

She's not too bad today, less emotional than yesterday which is a bonus. She's happily reading her book for school and eating cherrys. Xx

Current loss: 30lbs and 24inches

Glad you're back hun! How was it? Did you have a good time?

Thanks hun. It's been stressful but I'm muddling along.

Hi girls & man!

Hoping I can join in with your support group! Was considering doing cambridge and came across your thread, read through it all and all your stories convinced me to give it a whirl! Met my CDC last night for the first time and got my 21 products. Giving Just having products a go for the first week. Hoping it will give me a good loss to kick start! I am starting on Saturday, don't have time to prepare until then. Bit nervo of all the water drinking/peeing I will have to do but needs must! weighed in at 12:11 last night. Would love to lose three stone. I am a devil for starting things and then losing the will to live half way through lol so hoping that I will stay on track this time. Going to a very fancy wedding in three months time and I don't want to be the one hiding in the corner feeling tubby at it. Really want to be able to fit into all my skinny clothes presently residing in vacuum packs under the bed! Feeling pretty motivated so hopefully I can maintain that!

 

[Tiggemma]

Glad you're back and the weeing is better and even entertaining autumn! Just getting weighed is the first step. You'll go down in the numbers soon enough! Just like me!

Tinks just take it easy and hope the little person feels better soon! Stick to plan and we'll be here when you get back.

Lizz any time you need some deathly tips you know where I am! Glad Freya is doing ok her dad sounds like a complete waste of space! My sister lives several hundred miles away and I've driven up there for my nieces' events and driven back the next day. It's knackering but when you care it doesn't matter! So glad she's got you!

Ian hope your week is going ok?

Toodlies welcome! We are pretty good at supporting each other but a bit a little bad at self congratulations. I was about the same weight as you when I started and I have almost lost the three stone (only 3lbs left to go). It's a hard diet but it really does work as long as you stick to it. The low carb flu that you'll get in the next few days might make you feel you want to quit but keep going and you'll feel great in no time.

Btw after Italy I figured I had lots of carbs in me so I have exercised quite a lot this week. Much more than usual so I think I used up the carbs and pushed myself into ketosis earlier than I would have gone in otherwise. I certainly didn't do anything different food wise.

Haha Tigg I'll start taking notes! he's ok to book a holiday for 2015 but can't pay petrol for sports day! Work that one out! Lol I'd walk all day and night for Freya!

I think you've reacted to post holiday exactly as you should have hun. You knew it would be a gain, reacted with control and more exercise and it's happily coming off! I'm very impressed and it really gives me faith for maintenance!

Welcome toodlies!!! Glad you've decided on cd! It's hard initially but it's very rewarding

Current loss: 30lbs and 24inches

Not surprised Ian. Hope it gets better from here on. Have a virtual hug!

England aren't getting out of the group. In fact I'll be surprised if they win any of the three matches they play!
