DOING SW FROM HOME???

Its our 1st viewings so quite excited haha!
And yes meant to say I got a few new dresses but have decided on one for the wedding then one for a night out in Manchester next week with the girls! Were staying at the hotel where the Wedding is Sat night then I've got a Christening the day after so have a new dress for that too then a new dress for Manchester haha! X
 
Ah I've just been talking about buying houses with another canny girl on minis, it's super exciting! Hope you like them :)

Oooo Jen we can see u now!! Xx
 
Yea, just got app on my phone. Out of the 300 photo's on my phone, only have about 2 of me! This is a year old with Oliver but it'll do! :)

Jen x x
 
It's nice to see everyone seeing as though we feel like we know eachother! X
 
I agree, it's nice to put a face to a personality :) Feels more like you know who you're talking to haha
 
An early morning silly question for you! Is soda water and tonic water the same thing? No clue lol. Was thinking I could put juice of 1 or 2 lemons in soda water and be like lemonade and get my daily dose of lemons in! What do you reckon? Am trying the lemon a day boost thing!

:)

Jen x x
 
Ha! Well low cal tonic water is free, and soda water is free as its just fizzy water so you could have either. But normal tonic is synned. I used to put fresh ginger in soda water when I was pregnant to try and help with the sickness xx
 
Oooh I love soda water with fresh lime juice that difinately my non drinking drink....Morning ladies we're a chatty lot aren't we?

Lovely hot day again today but stuck indoor sorting my daughters paper round she's got it cushy I get them in sort them into rounds put her leaflets in whatever, then she does the easy part of sticking through doors and keeps the money.....

then off into town with youngest after dropping son at his friends on the way

Tilly have fun looking at houses, I love to move but our house is quite large and can't find anything the size of it for the money we can afford and I can't go smaller I need more bedrooms to be honest than we have now....

Nice to see you Jenny my phone is the same full of photos of everyone and everything but me lol, I hate having my photo taken so it suits me....
Hope everyone is okay at your end Laura...

Morning Charl hows the S&S going?

I'd love another baby but hubs says he's too old now and ours are getting self sufficient lol can't believe my youngest is 8 years old now.... and my eldest is 15 next year it's super scary, she'll be in uni before I know it.....


Oh I'm in Birmingham by the way...

Charl what part of Newcastle are you, hubs has family there still xx
 
Ah cool. I live in gosforth, the crap bit. Can't wait to finish Uni and get an awesome job and move to the nice bit! It's a bit crap as all the boys friends at school live close to each other and we live in the not so nice area. Well it's not awful like, but would be nice to be near them so they could all play.

S&s going okish.. Had a rough day yesterday as expected to be in ketosis but I'm not so still really hungry. I think am starting to today as I have quite a lot of energy and the hunger isn't as bad as yesterday. Just trying to balance my days to get the lowest carbs possible to push it on. I think I'm just stressing as I only have 3 weeks to do this properly so want good results and the big losses don't come until your in ketosis. Soooo meh, it's ok!

How's everyone else this morning?? Xx
 
ahh right I know it, they live out on the Dumpling Hall Estate, not been up there for years now though...

It's crappy when your kids friends don't live close by I had that with my eldest daughter the other two have friends nearby which is nice but it can be a pain when they all converge at mine but it's nice for them....

What you studying at Uni? thats one thing I regret not going to uni instead of leaving school, don't think I could afford to do it now though, it's going to be horrendous enough when the kids go, my daughter wants to do a double degree so she's limiting her study places and might not be able to stay here where it's rent free lol

Good luck with the diet I had a crappy day food wise in the end so I'm going to be good today then start anew tomorrow, I might do the free online one for the week so Ihave something to stick to...
 
Well, I've just had soda water and the juice of one lemon, ewwww, incredibly sour so popped a bit of canderel in and it's now like cloudy lemonade, woohoo!! Do you have to syn sweeteners? Only used about a tsp. Had a 30min swim this morning too, so feeling quite good.

I've got a potato, veg and bean bake for tea. If I have it with salad, is that ee? Also, anyone ever done success express days?

Sun is still shining down here, bloomin lovely! We'd love to move house especially as Oliver starts school next sept, just need to win the lottery first! Got my tickets for tonight, 100 millionaires!!

I like chatting lol :)

I'm doing a joint honours at tho mo in childhood studies and early years, afterwards going to have to do an conversion to psychology masters And then maybe work for a few years and go back and do my phd. I want to do child psychodynamics. Or maybe psychology but the Freudian stuff really interests me.

I also wish I'd done this when I was 18, but then again if I had I definitely wouldn't have done this as it was only when I had kids I really got into child development and psych. It's been quite a long process though as I had no a levels so had to go to college for a year before Uni, it was all quite stressful leaving work and not even knowing if I could get into college let alone pass and do well enough to get into Uni! But it's definitely a better decision than staying in my crap job where I had been for ages.

I'd say to anyone try and go back to education I've learnt so much about myself and gained a load of confidence in my abilities.

Fresh starts are always good :) try and start from your next meal rather than the next day, it makes you feel back in control and not guilty for having an off morning.

I LOVE cloudy lemonade! Yum. I can't wait to eat real food again!! Haha 5 days of 1/3 bowls full of nothing are so boring! They do taste nice though.

I love chatting on here, everyone else gets bored of me prattling on about foods and diets. Maybe as none of them have ever had weight issues. Xx
 
Oooh, Charl, your degree and plans sound really cool - I am absolutely fascinated by all the Freudian theories etc :) I know I'll regret not going to uni now, but soo not in the right frame of mind - and it's so expensive!

Yes, Jenny, that does sound like a good EE meal :) and thanks for the reminder about the lottery haha! Never play, but figure I'm in with a slightly better chance this time?? Probably not haha...

Just made a big hash brown with 'fried' egg and ham :D Yum!! We also have mangoes that needed to be eaten, so having that after - so good! x
 
It's going to cost me so sooo much money but if I'm a super brain the NHS MIGHT pay for my phd. If I ever even get one. I'd definitely like to be the top of my intended game though so being a dr rather than a therapist would be cool!

All your food sounds yum! And kinda like torture. Haha! Doing so so much better today though :) yay! Xx
 
When is your 1st wi on ss charl? Sounds pretty brutal! But I'm getting near desperate! If I don't have success this week, gonna try calorie counting. My sister started loosing weight with me and she's 2 stone ahead of me now. Sooo chuffed for her and feel terrible for feeling incredibly envious! I know there's no way to speed things up but aarrrggghhh!

I feel better now, lol ;-)

How many syns in a digestive biscuit anyone?

Jen x x
1st 10lbs gone for good
Mission - size 12 in 2012 ;-)
 
Just put the digestive down! You don't need it lovey.

First WI supposed to be Monday but as I've taken longer to get into keto might wait until Tuesday to give me a better indication. I feel loads better today, 8pm and I still have a pack left and I've done a 2.5mile walk. Actually maybe more like 3.5 :) have loads of energy now too. Hard watching my friends drink, but it's ok, I want to feel good more than I want to drink!

How's everyone getting on tonight? Xx
 
Stuck at work, hideous shift!!

No syns today so had a digestive!

Whoo seems like it's kicking in now Charl..

I'm absolutely exhausted tonight I could easily fall asleep right now, guess my two disturbed nights earlier in the week have caught up with me now, I don;t usually have trouble sleeping in the heat but a friend of mine was having a few problems which means I lie awake fretting over him and some meds that I hae to take mess around with the bodys heat regulating system so I'm overheating constantly....

After a week of being disallusioned and off plan I'm feeling better and more positive about dieting again hooray... can't wait to get started again...

Have a good evening all I'm going to watch the olympics as the kids are all hyoed up over it then an early night me thinks...
