I'm having one of those days

First some bugger, in a rush, bashes into me as I was exiting Adsa....never stopped to apologise and when I got to the car, I realised my eggs were smashed :(

Then my cousin (the one who was disappointed with her 4lb loss) starts texting me nonstop with even more SW questions and complaining that the plan is too expensive and she hates it (she's only been doing it 2 weeks)
After awhile I got really sick of all her texts and deliberated started ignoring my phone in favour of playing with my Baby.............Next thing I know, the phone is ringing..............'Why aren't you answering my texts?'
'I'm busy feeding and changing Caitlin'
'Well she can wait................I need you NOW'
Well I nealry lost my mind and I so wanted to tell her off but for the sake of family, I dropped the call, turned my phone off (pretending my Battery has died)
SO SHE'S POSTING ON MY FACEBOOK


She's pissed off now because I refuse to draw up a shopping list for her.............We don't live in the same area, so dont have access to the same shops. I've told her the best places to shop, she's joined loads of FB SW groups but still she complains
I think she's been pampered for way too long

Well after 12 weeks of being good on SW, I've been very norty. Paul took me out to dinner and I had every intention of being good and making good choices but then the menu came. Chicken chow mein, Chicken in seasonal veg, boiled rice and a pancake roll the size of a toilet roll lol............with a nice cup of tea................. Tasted bloody lovely but I'll probably pay for it tomorrow when I weigh in :O

In my defence I did only have 1/2 of everything listed.....except for the pancake roll and the tea......they were all mine lol

Decided to try on my Maxi dresses last night...............I lived in these two summers ago and as long as I could last summer (I was 4months preg) before my bump no longer would allow
They were packed away, in the hope that one day I would shed the baby weight and get back into them. There were 10 of them

One after the other I tried them on................nope.....nope.......nope............Nahhhhh........and so on

ONLY 2 FIT !!!
Not because I am still overweight.................they were TOO BIG for me................

Not sure whether to be pleased or gutted lol (I love those dresses lol)

So its on to Ebay with all them lovely dresses...............I will need to restock my wardrobe for this summer:gen157:

I've just started packing for my hols next week and I've had to have a total re think quite a few things don't fit and its all cos they are too big :) thankfully my maxi dresses that didn't fit now do tho I'm always keeping an eye out in charity shops for clothes as with my weightloss still going I do not want to be constantly buying new I'm always on the lookout for the next size down so I always have some bits ..... But I always get rid of things that are too big .... Don't want to go back to the chunky me
 
Its Weigh In Day

Well even after my norty night at the Chinese Restaurant I still Managed a 1lb loss................ To some it may seem small and insignificant but to me its 1lb less that I am carrying around
Just 2.5lbs to my 2 stone award................. Hope for a bigger loss next week but doubt it as TOTM is due very soon too.

I'm on target to lose 2 stone before my anniversary at the mo............which is Fabarooney :party0049:
 
Well done you. Good loss. Sometimes you just have to let yourself go. One meal wont make a difference. Just as long as u don't. Arty on into naughty days. But you've done brilliantly so far and are so focused. So not too worry. And it's just lovely you had a nice night out together as it hardly ever happens nowadays. Lol

I had a fab holiday. Flights were ok. Although got delayed on the way back by 4 hours. Wedding was lovely and weather was lush. Didn't want to come home. But back to work tomorrow. God to win the lottery eh. What you up to this week, anything nice.x

YAYYYYYY......Hello my buddy.....So good to hear from you............

I've just had a massively busy weekend
My eldest spent the night at the science museum with her autism group..............I was in bits leaving her behind but she was fine (however on collecting her today she hadn't slept and was soooooo upset..... I cheered her up with a huge cuddle and a kiss and a load of toys from the toy shop lol)
Went to the Chinese restaurant and enjoyed every mouthful

Tomorrow everything goes back to normal, eldest and other half back to school, so its just me and Caitlin and at the moment I have nothing more exciting than food shopping to do......... Hope it stays that way lol

I am trying to remain focus............I think all my little goals are a definite help because it gives me something to work towards as well as my overall target

Stuck a load of my old clothes on ebay tonight which cheered me up no end.............. I have no intention of keeping them around as I never wanna get back into them again.............. Smaller sizes pleaseeeeeee

Our nights out are definitely few and far between so I have decided that although my loss may seem tiny, its still a loss and I blooming well enjoyed that meal and the time with my fella xx

Glad you're back, even if you aren't lol

Why do we do it to ourselves ?

Half way through the week, we suddenly feel the need to stand on those dreaded scales !!!.............
Sometimes it gives us something to smile about, sometimes it gives us bad news...........sometimes it shows the same weight as the previous week which just makes us even more paranoid

WHY WHY WHY ?

2 days til my weigh in and not only have I had to contend with the cold from Hell.............Its my TOTM and I have been craving everything. Its not just chocolate, its food in general.......... I've had to be soooooo careful whilst shopping this week because I knew I would just grab all the wrong things and ruin all my progress.
I've only bought what has been on my list.....no extras and I've always made sure I've demolished a banana or apple before I head to the shops, because there is nothing more tempting than walking round the supermarket when you're hungry...............leads to disaster

Tomorrow I am taking my daughters to London Zoo's Special Childrens annual event.
I've got the packed lunch sorted for Rebecca and Caitlin...............My other half wants steak and salad pittas, a muller, 2 pink and whites (mallow sandwiched between two wafers 2.5 syns each) and a diet pepsi
So that just leaves me
I'm considering the following
Breakfast muffins (bits of bacon and sausage cooked off and chopped up, placed in silcone cake cases and topped with whisked egg and popped in the oven till golden brown)
Cooked Chicken and salad
Ham pittas
watermelon, apple and banana
leftover pasta (from tonight's dinner)
Pitta bread pizza (served cold with salad)
Curly wurly/ chuppa chup lollies
Home made cupcakes (various syns depending on ingredients)
diet R Whites lemonade (makes a nice change from pepsi lol)

All good choices and lean heavily towards of red day
Or I could be lazy and pick up a grilled chicken and bacon salad from Macdonalds on the way lmao
