From here to Eternally Slim

HIYA! I did think about posting on here yesterday but then I couldnt immediately see the thread and my attention span was as usual quite lacking so I wandered off and posted somewhere else.

I reckon EF is up to her eyes in packing boxes and new job, and Jimbob is up to her eyes in goose grease and trying to arrange a support boat for her swimathon. Not sure how the other swimmers will feel about having the boat in the pool but needs must!!

And I KNOW Vegan face is off bingeing on cupcakes - so we wont see her for days and days and days and days and days. Or at least half an hour till all the cupcakes are gone. :D
 
And I have a horrible feeling Pesty must still be ill, cos we haven't seen her for days either.

Pesty? Hellllooooooooooooooo??? Are you there?
Are you feeling better yet?


But yeah, all this goose grease does make it quite hard to grasp the mouse, and my fingers slip off the keys.
 
Hey JoT!! Im here!!!!! Just lol

Sorry i was struck down with lurgy all last week and spent the whole time wrapped up in bed sleeping! I am feeling better today though and have made it into work.

MLM well done in getting back into the 11s, CD congrats on only a 1lb gain after 4 days away!! Ronnie well done on the STS!! EF hope you have a good time at your new job and that everything is going well!

Unfortunatley i have been awfully pants and eaten everything which it takes no effort to make, i have over synned by about a gzillion and am considering hiding from WI tomorrow!!!

Jillian hasnt been going at all as after i was nearly sick from level 2 i decided it might be a good idea to wait until i got better to start again. This being the first day which i feel better and i havent yet considered whether i will be attempting it when i get home!!!

Hope everyone is good? xx
 
Good morning everypeeps.

Went to WI last night, lost 0.5 (so 1.5 under target now) and was awarded Greatest Loser for the group award. Have done Jillian this morning already, so my dancing legs are all warmed up and ready for some Tuesday action. Go team!!
 
Morning everyone

Pesty, hope you are feeling much better.

CD, that 1lb will be off by now :).

What a busy few days its been. The move went well, still back and fourth to old house till money has gone through and my bed will then be collected on Sat, as money should have cleared on thursday. That will then be it.. Line drawn. I am surrounded by boxes. My son loves his new room, its much smaller then the old house but for us both its perfect. Neighbours already introduced themselves, which was nice and the next door neighbour took my bins out this morning because I didn't know we had to move them, lol.

Sat night we went for a celebration meal to TGI's and for his 18th, and he got trollied, found him asleep in the toilets in the restaurant!! Little monkey, then he was so drunk (3.5 pints of stella) he couldn't sit in the car as was feeling sick, so walked home with his GF. Good job we had moved as we were only a 5 min walk from there!! He had a hangover next morning and hopefully thats taught him not to drink like that again.

Work is ok, just a bit boring at the moment, not much to do and seem to spend my time doing nothing, hoping that will change today.

Got sky/broadband being installed on Fri, so will be able to go online again at home.

Diet wise is difficult as have no fridge and have been buying each day to cook, so will be back on SW next week and back to the gym, looking forward to some good old routine again. Funny thing is, I don't feel anything re loss with the ex, not sure if thats due to me still being linked there til Sat, but stayed there on Sunday eve and it felt like a shell with no soul. Very strange.

Good luck for all the WI's tonight, xxx
 
Good to hear from you Missus! And VERY glad to hear that you are getting sorted. Dont worry about the diet, one thing at a time!! Sounds like you have found yourself a great base to rebuild yourself from. Everything is a lot more positive now, so dont be worried that you arent feeling things that you think maybe you should be. You may come to feel those things in time, or you may find that actually, this is a relief and like the healing of a burst blister. You were in an incredibly unhealthy situation and now you have a fresh start and a brighter future to look forward to.

Which is frankly, quite a splendid thing. And you are quite within your rights to celebrate it and not worry that you dont feel sad or upset.
 
Hey, EF, nice to see you back. And I'm glad things are really starting to come together for you now.

And well done, YET AGAIN, The Minx. You are brilliant.

I hope everyone's started the dancing for us Tuesdayers - I REALLY want my shiny tonight, please!
 
Well that could be convenient if you were out with just your phone, and, say, a potato, and got peckish.
 
im also dancing until phone pings and tells me to stop!!!
 
Good Morning Ladies

Im in a much happier mood

.....probably because Ive not dropped the milk and been able to have a cup of tea and my porridge for brekkie today instead of minging tuna bleuuuaaagh



Well done to our resident BIGGEST LOSER MLM !!!

fingers & other crossable things crossed for our Tuesday weighers, JIMBOB, PESTY,HLV - have I missed anyone?
I shall start dancing when I get back from Physio in a bit. But Ive left the band playing in my absence

EF lovely to see you back here, Im glad the move went ok & that you are settling into work.
I wouldnt worry about what you 'are not feeling' towards your ex, this split has been the culmination of an awful lot of nasty things thats gone on over time......and you gradually just shut yourself off without realising (at least thats what happened to me) It took me years to finally make the move to leave-but when I did I just felt 'all empty and numb to the situation instead of teary & sad' like I knew it was the right thing to do finally - does that make sense??

anyway gotta go Im late again :rolleyes:
Ta ta for now....... BE GOOD

I need dancing too please... about 6lbs worth... not to have a massive loss - i just want a STS lol. I think the worth 'oops' does not quite cut it this week!!

Good luck all other Tuesday weighers!!

EF I cant add much except a massive well done to you. You shouldnt feel bad you should feel happy and free!!

To quote Bree Vanderkamp 'The opposite of love isn't hate. It's indifference. And if you hate me, that means you still care, and we're still connected...' So i think feeling nothing is best, if you dont love him and you dont hate him you can be happy :)

Well done on the loss MLM & thanks for the dancing CD, have fun at physio!! xx
 
Thanks Minxy, Cd, Pesty and Sarah. I think I just expected to be literally in pieces, as I was a few weeks ago, but CD, I think you are right, its been one hell of a ride last few weeks, that maybe I am numb and relieved even, really does make sense. MLM, yes healing of a burst blister - perfect way to put it :)

It's a little weird, but its a nice weird. Enjoyed being in house last night, my son stayed at his friends, and though I said to ex that I would be back each night this week, until money clears, so that he knows that im still around, I didn't want to go back there last night. Enjoyed watching TV, a glass of vino and stayed in my sons room as thats the only room thats ready. The next door neighbour bless him took my bins out this morning, didn't know we needed to physically move the bins, lol.. Will say thanks to him when I next see him. I'll go back to the other house tonight though, but will get an early night so won't have to sit looking at him for any longer then is needed, lol.

MLM, well done on your loss last night :)

Lots of virtual dancing, as will look a little odd doing that in front of the new foster Care teams here, lol.. But I am with you in spirit :).

am doing lots of virtual dancing for everyone, not sure how i will do this week, and got the colonoscopy next week so will be on white food bland food and no fruit/fibre or red or black current things from saturday.... mmmm we will see..... am trying to be good tried some clothes on on friday night and they were too small
bought new jeans on saturday still feeling bit crappy about myself but will sort it out!
 
All I can say is:

Check out the new shiny!

Thanks, all you dancing people.
Ummm, can you do it all again next week, please?
 
Ronnie,

You have been such good support to me and I want to return the favour. You can do this, you know the plan inside out, and you know you can lose. But you need a motivation and a focus and a goal to work towards. Its dead easy to lose your way without it.

Why not ask to sit in on the new members talk again so you can refresh your head and get yourself motivated again. Sitting with people who are just starting out when you have already come so far can be an excellent way to remember how to do this and seeing their determination can often reinforce yours.

We will help you, but grab that motivation, and hold on to it tight coz you need it in order to succeed. *hugs*
