Day ....

Well, I thought I'd update Kirstin's diary for her as she doesn't seem to have t'internet access again tonight and had slipped on to page 2 of the diaries!!!

She texted me earlier and said that she's found a new client whom is quite tastey and she's "in lust"! They have lots of things in common, including he's just moved from Yorkshire and has relocated to the Northampton area, plus they drink in many of the same bars t'up North. She did not check to see if he was wearing a ring though, so shes going to check that on their next appointment - which she is going to ensure is sooner rather than later!

The last I heard was she was following another man to tonight's hotel!!

No update on the 'mysinglefriend.com' posting, I'm sad to say!!
 
Hi Punkass, and Lottie-Kins, ha ha thats so funny you updating her thread, I need someone to do that for me, ha ha, i've been in reading not posting mood for days now...

Kirsten your weightloss is amazing, as FFnF says its so consistent, in my dreams, but then what you put in is what ya get out, and i'm not as good as you, so well done you deserve your amazing results...
 
Thanks Lottie for updating for me and thanx caz for the comments (i ate last night.. but only fish and salad.. but it was two courses!)

Ok as Lottie said, my first appointment yesterday was with the Area Sales Manager from the south... but he was taking me round some of my customers in my area as a way of introducing me. The first one we went to he explained that the contact he had was a Yorkshire Lad (will call him mr YL lol).... so as I normally end up meeting old ancient engineering managers.. I was blown away when I discovered hes young (prob late 20's i reckon) He had heavy yorks accent.. and lived and worked close to where I used to work 9 months ago, so we chatted about the area, drinking (he said he could tell i was a yorkshire lass- although i'm not a native but never mind - because we can hold our drink!!!) Anyway did the whole work discussion too, but that was mainly the other ASM and him... I just drooled lol (JOKE).... he did keep looking at me hopefully appreciatively.. but I couldn't tell.... AND yeah i forgot to check for a ring ... duh!!!! Anyway he has moved to Northants now, he even told me the place name (which is stored in my memory banks!), he said he hadn't been out a whole lot in northampton, but said it was okay.. he wanted to know why i was thinking of moving to Warwickshire when my office is in Northants... I think this can be exploited a hell of a lot more on my next visit :p When he shook hands with me at the gatehouse to say goodbye i'm sure his hand lingered more than normal.. but i could have been fantasizing!!!

Not much else to report really.. stayed in a hotel in Shrewsbury last night, and the ASM i was out with booked a table in the restaurant, i had explained about my diet and said i would eat but only protein and veg... it was posh place too so v small portions that normally wouldn't fill an ant! So I had calamares for starter with salad of basil, cherry toms and parmasen shavings (ok that is not strictly to the rules!).. t'was beautiful! I then had sea bass fillets (now i expected a large piece of seabass.. but it was a minute stack of 3 tinsy winsy fillets about 2" square if that and less than a centimetre thick!) this was served on a base of shredded veggies.. i had a salad to go with it rather than the wedges that should have gone with it! Was all v nice and not too un-aam!

Oh and at 2am i got a text from Jon saying he was free on the 27th if i still wanted him to go! SO i sent one back mid morning today, saying that was cool and leaving it at that!

At home now tomorrow and friday i just have one appointment on my own and then i'm going area/house hunting! Theres a certain place near northampton i may check out ;)


Just remembered... went shopping at Fosse Park on way home.. bought a fantastically gorgeous skirt .. cost £110!!!!! Also bought a white shirt and three tops for work!!!! Nearly didn't get the skirt coz of the price tag.. but i had tried on another 5 skirts besides that one... all of which i loved.. so i economised lol and just took the one expensive one instead of five others that would have actually ended up costing me over £200 in total!!! Think i better stop spending now!! Its just so hard now that i need loads of size 12 stuff!

Hey kirsten,

Yep it's me....

just found this site by chance, it is pretty wicked though...very motivational and everyone seems so helpful!

I only knew it was you cos of your name and pic....lol well dey are da same!

xx
 
lol dieting queen.. my diet updates are the same coz i just copy and paste normally.. but the rest of the updates on here are me blathering on like i do.. i originally intended the blog to be for that... but then i got hooked on minimins!!! I do keep thinking of taking the blog off.. but i only have another month on SS so i may as well carry it on!
 
Cravings for food are getting ridiculous, think it must be all of the AAM's i've had recently (well 4 to be precise i think!) Keeps making me want to have one.. which was what I thought would happen back in week 5.. I was right! Anyway i've resisted the evil chicken salads lol! I've also resisted cadbury's mini eggs (been round my mates and her 4 year old was stuffing her face with mini eggs).. and I resisted biscuits too (which her mum was stuffing her face with!) Thankfully they have got so used to my high food resistance that neither of them offer me anything anymore.. I'd have shocked them if they had coz i really wanted something! Currently craving curry.. where that comes from I don't know - better go put it in the food dump i think!

Worked from home today..... and actually worked.. rather than like in my old job before xmas where I did bu88er all!!!!!! I LOVE my new job... its lovely Have spent the day writing a training presentation.. although I am new, I am required to teach the rest of the staff, internal and external, my product knowledge on a different kind of hose - which i sold for 7 1/2 years and they have limited knowledge of.

Off on visits tomorrow, followed by area hunting - gonna make my damn mind up about where to live tomorrow and stick to it.. its looking like Northants again though... nothing to do with a certain mr YL who happens to live there now honest ;p

Monday i have made a visit with a customer in Hertfordshire.. then will go up to office, staying over and then heading down south to go out with Ian the ASM who covers the south again.. after that I dunno what i'm up to!

Looking forward to my weekend... so much so that I thought it was Friday today and I was gonna get to go on Lotties hen night tomorrow.. then it hit me it was still Thursday! Grrr

Most of my customers are in the food and drink industry, yesterday I donned white wellies, white overcoat and fetching green shower cap stylee hat to have a tour round the clover factory - was given tub of clover, package of Country Life butter and package of some welsh recipe butter which has extra salt (my kinda butter) ... its all in the fridge... I could kill for toast and butter right now!!! Luckily as it was straight off the production line the date isn't up till April... so i'll get to have some toast and butter at some point!!!

Erm i'm rambling lots... gonna go watch a dvd me thinks!

PS only lost a pound so far this week
 
Hiya Kirsten,

Yep i've noticed after having an AAM its hard to get back into the SS, whether it be regaining the habit or actually getting knocked out of Ketosis by something that we might have missed.

I have every confidence that you'll get past this, if you really MUST eat something then at least make sure its pure protein...

I'm home sick today, and on antibiotics but funnily have no appetite even though I bought some protein food in case I needed to eat cuz of anitbiotics..LOL..its a strange world isn't it..

Sending you my strenght {{VIBES}} cuz illness has killed my appetite anyhoooo,,, but i'll need them back by the morning, expecting anit b's to kick it good overnight LOL
 
Hi hun,

Glad that you are enjoying your new job. It's great having motivation again, isn't it? It's something that we all need in life! Sorry that you are struggling a bit this week, but you have that inner strength to resist, I know it.

If all else fails though, I would second Caz's advice and stick to pure protein. Your body cannot store protein, so whilst it will temporarily halt your weight loss because of the high calorific content, you body will soon consume it and at least you should still remain in Ketosis. What is best though is to try and stay on your path and soon those 12's will turn into 10's!!!

Am so glad that your are looking forward to the weekend, it should be really fun!

This is the only diary that I'm updating tonight as I've neglected you since Tuesday. I updated my own about 4 times this morn, lol, so that ones not due. BF is back from Scotland so I've got to extend the TLC and I've got to Hedrin my self just in case! Worked late tonight and then got my honeymoon tickets and the bridesmaids shoes, so thats another couple of jobs ticked off the list!!

Chat soon hun xxxxx PS Haven't decided about the sun tan for Sat yet!!! Still!! If you do, I will too!
 
Thanks u two... i won't cheat.. I can't bring myself to even if i wanted to!!!! And i'm not having any more protein either! Not for a couple of days anyway - I am going to on Sat night at the hen night... may do carbs too... since its immaterial anyway as I'm drinking... I'm still in ketosis, i have only ever come out of it three times during the whole diet (and twice was due to alcohol!), I'm not hungry so i won't eat... i'm just having happy feelings towards food.. I won't actually have any! I don't even want chicken anymore at home - so its not actually the food itself - its the wanting to eat out! I have some chicken in the freezer, but it doesn't call on me to eat it.. restaurants do however lol!

I never really worry about ketosis anyway, I know that if i SS 100% then I am in ketosis.. just like I know the two times i've had a skinful I will pay the next day by experiencing hunger.. that hunger makes me more determined to not cheat rather than less... I know why it happens and I know why I crave fry ups the next day, but I'll be damned if I'll give in to it!

Right back to dvd....!
 
Loving your attitude Kirstin and yoru determination - when we gonna go for that pint of sparkling water? lol

Next week is looking pretty clear at the moment.. lol

Soooo pleased you like your job., I'm looking for a new one now.. jobs paper next to me! lol perhaps we can do a house swap? lol just kidding,.. I need to be down here.. ;) Only 17lbs to go,.. you must feel SO good!:D well done! and extra well done on resisting those temptations! Right.. off to do a bit of catching up on my diary (been very neglectful of late! lol) xx
 
Hey Jennie

Well I am staying at Northampton Innkeepers Lodge on Monday... possibly staying over on Wednesday too... but at mo I don't know as I'm visiting the ASM from the south's area on Tues and Wed and he is yet to tell me where I'm off to!

I will PM u as soon as I know, but Monday looks best at mo.. or the following week I may be down there too.. i have to go house hunting at some point after all!!!! I've given notice on my place.. but my landlord is being good.. given a month and then after the end of Jan hes just gonna do it on a week by week basis.

Better go to bed now, got to be up at 5 in the morning

Kx

PS its 16lbs and counting now :D Although after that I then want to lose further stone or stone and a half
 
Hi hun,

How are you?

This diary page is so busy now, in December no one ever fell on to the 2nd page - tonight you were half way down it!!

Do you know what I thought of you today. You know the way that you have been craving chicken salad? The hairdresser was telling me that she lost loads of weight once (BF split and just couldn't face food) and she had been a vegetarian for years and years, but all of a sudden when she went to a restaurant she kept craving roast beef! By the sounds of it, she was in Ketosis at the time without knowing it, because she said that she was just eating Asparagus and Tomatoes every evening and therefore was probably on a self induced VLCD. I said, weren't you exhausted just eating that and she said no, I was bounding with energy and my hair looked really glossy and healthy- which is what made me think that she was in Ketosis. Anyway, this craving for beef soon became a reality and she couldn't get enough of it she said and eventually started to get to a healthy weight again and she wasn't a vegetarian anymore, LOL.

But it's like when pregnant women get cravings for things isn't it? It's your body telling you what it needs. Anyway, I'm not saying that it needs CS, because we all know that you are getting the nutrients that you need from the shakes, but I think that you body knows that you enjoyed that CS and so is trying to trick you into eating it again.

How are you today? Have you been working at home again? What are you wearing tomorrow night? I've got a sore throat, am not V happy bout it!!!
 
Hey u

THink i'm wearing a black dress tonight.. not sure yet.. its a 12 and new! Its knee length, low cut... fitted wide elasticated band at the waist and then a loose skirt sort of thing.. not described that at all well!!!!! THats the favourite for tonight at mo - can't wait really lookiing forward to it :)

Weighed myself this morning and I have lost 3lbs so far this week.... of course this could all change after tonight!!!!! HOpe not though because in 1lb mores time I will be in the 11's!!! I'm exactly 12 stone today :D

I'll not listen to my stupid brain then telling me it wants CS... although I think really its telling me it wants to dine out - that is the real craving... but it will get its wish tonight!!! But I do love eating out and going to restaurants and I really think that is what I am missing not the actual eating thing.. because i've been out a lot more lately, i'm wanting even more!

I was away yesterday, went to visit a customer, called in the office and then went area searching. I am looking at a house in the morning in Desborough - which is really nice, on the Northants/Leicestershire border. Failing that I have decided to look for houses in the Market Harborough area if I don't get the one tomorrow.. coz its nice and Leicestershire is bang slap in the middle of my sales area :)

Went out for a few drinks last night.. got chatted up loads of times... although I really don't think any of the guys that chatted me up were above 22!!!!! I never get chatted up by older people! At one point I was sat with 6 lads - all about 20/21 - many of them v cute and we were playing with a toy soldier!!! they said he was macho... so i bent his wrists around a bit and pointed out that he was secretly gay! Got a kiss off them all when they left.. then realised one of them had left his mobile phone.. so i looked thru the phone book - found the only one in there who's name i knew and rang it.. told him his mate had left his phone back.. just happens that the one who's name I had found out was the cutest lol!!!! Oh and S had a night off last night... so never saw him.. and Jon was out in a local village - i texted him so it didn't look like i was being funny...

Thats all my gossip.. got to go to the supermarket now and get some shampoo and toothpaste - have nearly ran out!

Should change ticker to 59lbs lost.. leaving 14 to go... but I'm not - will leave it until monday since tonight may be damaging!
 
Hi Kirsten,

here's hoping tonite doesn't cause damage on the scales, OOOooh to be so close to the 11's,,,I just smashed down into the 13's and I have to admit its been a great motivation for me to be 100% committed LOL (should be anyhow) cuz really don't want to go back up to the 14's

Look forward to your update, enjoy yourself tonite either way...
 
Hi Kirsten,

Congrats on gettin so close to smashing that barrier...I was 12st 1lb last weigh in..so also hoping to smash the barrier this week...It's a fantastic feeling...last time i was in 11's was over 11 years ago!:eek:

Well enjoy the younger guys, I find i tend to be attracted to younger guys too...they are so youthful and so not bothered about numbers( age ) Hmmm could i tell some stories.....:D

Enjoy tonight I'm sure you will look fabulous!

xx
