Determined and can!!!!!

Hi Geordie. Sounds like you've had a great Xmas :). Lovely news re the baby :). Nice chilled day for you yesterday then. Nice to have some extra Xmas treats. It's the fact that there are hanging around after that can be the problem hey. I'm trying to be better from today to haul it back a bit around social things.
 
Well WI this morning and put on 4 lb which is pretty poor but I guess I haven't WI for a couple of weeks and that's about right considering what I have had!!! Roll on back to normal to get back to routine and get it off.
Yesterday my eyes were no better but no worse so ended up at the walk in centre where they recommended I use some eye ointment rather than drops, messy but eyes seem a bit better today. My daughter had a friend stay over and I am about to wake them as we are going shopping, more to take stuff back but I will see what there is to be had any way!

Oo sounds like Cookie you and I are all in the plus 4 club :) Least we all enjoyed it. Eyes sound really sore still, hope they clear up soon. Good luck in the shops - hope you find some nice bargains. We have someone viewing the house this am then family Xmas celebrations later with stepdaughter.
 
Are you selling your house then? Shops were great at 9.30 but pants by lunch time. Got most of what I wanted done. Charlotte and her friend had their first trip round the shops on their own. They were taking pics on her phone of shoes they were trying on in primark. Hilarious! Hope you have a great day x

Hello, aren't we all similar with our gains, I'm not worrying about it, it'll come off when it comes off. Had my first day back on plan and I enjoyed the food, today I've still had a tiny bit of mums Xmas cake which I'll factor in my syns, I'm not throwing anything away I'm still enjoying myself.

Last shift in work tonight of the year! Can't wait for 4 lovely days off. I've been lucky with how my rest days have fallen this year and I didn't volunteer to work NY day as Brett's off, we get paid double time so there's always a few volunteers but I'd sooner have the time off together even though we're staying in I can't wait.

Hope your eyes are feeling better with the new meds for it, and enjoy shopping :)
 
Hi. Yup we've been in the market for a while but we want to move back to my house which we rented out due to housing market when we got together. No major rush though.. Sounds like a good day at the shops. Great that you have New Year off Cookie. I've just taken a cointreau and chocolate bomb dessert out for tea and wondering if my sorbet resolve is going to hold - it looks lush, hard with Xmas goodies!! If I manage to only hold the 4lb gain by next Thurs that could be a good aim with New Year stuff to come. So so tempting!!!

Hi cookie
I am not worrying about my gain but I know I will probably by next weekend! Then I will be determined to shift it. Really funny that we have all gained similar.
I have goodies in the house like cheese and stuff I want to enjoy. You mums cake sounds great. I am off to mam and dads for lunch today and tonight I am out with my friends as it was one of their birthday s yesterday. Looking forward to it but cannot wear contact lenses!!
4 days off will be great and relaxing. :)

That dessert sounds awesome! We have two huge gift bags full of sweets and chocolate not really mine but doesn't stop me picking at it.
House move sounds good, it's a difficult time to sell though isnt it?
Shopping trip was good. I bit the bullet and bought 2 pairs of jeans at dotty ps as I am desperate and was waiting until loose more weight but cannot wait any longer. Got 2 nice jumpers from new look and saw a divine bag in next which I might treat myself to. We go to Dublin for the weekend in 3 weeks and I needed something decent to wear!!
I bought the new SW mag yesterday for inspiration, you guys will probably already have it if you go to class xx
 
Yup have the magazine. Love reading all the success stories in them. Did cave and have a small piece of the chocolate bomb and some wine so the syns were up. Have to say it was yummy. We have some left too but it will keep until son is home tomorrow so he can help with that. Syns will prob still be up with New Year family get together on New Year's Day and Asti to,toast in New Year on New Year's Eve but trying to be better than I normally would be. House sales seem to be picking up locally and three on our estate have sold in last 4/12 so I think it's only a matter of time. We're quite chilled about it, what will be.

New clothes sound great. Ireland trip sounds fun too :)

It will be good to get the extension dine in 2014. It it hard getting back on track with Xmas goodies still around, I figure if I can get some good days around New Years will help and then take the weekend a day at a time as we are visiting family. Beyond that I have 11 weeks to the week if my 50th and niece's wedding so will just have to see what can be done. Are you doing anything NY Eve evening or is he working the evening. The funeral will be tough hugs xx as you say incredibly hard for the family, none if us knows what's around the corner hey. Puts life into perspective.

Hope the funeral gets ok Geordie, sorry about your colleague I know how it feels. Sending u a big Cookie cuddle ((( ))) xx
 
Afternoon everyone.
The funeral went as well as these things can. It was all about the person so it was comforting, just tragic at this time a year and awful for the family. There was a massive turn out.
I am staying in tonight. Chris is night shift and Charlotte has a pal staying over. So I should have the TV to myself! Went shopping this morning and to Frankie and bennies for lunch with Chris which was nice. Charlotte was at the swimming baths with a friend.
I plan to look at the New SW mag tonight as I haven't had chance to read it yet.
Hope you all have a great night whatever you do x
