How was your weekend Gaga ?
ladygaga
really trying again!
Thanks for all the messages guys- it feels like ages since I have been online. So sorry..... now for an update hey!
Well the weekend was manic at work- was the only nurse on duty both days so it was mega busy and no break time for poor Gaga which meant no MM catch ups sadly!. Got home late on Sun night so literally came in and went straight to bed. Was up early on Mon morning to pack then our drive to Hereford to meet my folks for 2 days camping. Had a lovely time but weather was a shocker- mega windy and rather dull but we still had fun. Our poor tent certainly had an airing for it's last use of the season. Tuesday was our 3rd wedding anniversary so the tool went fishing for the day with my pops and I spent the day with my Mama hehehe! Went out for a gorgeous meal on Tuesday night to celebrate tho! Yesterday on way home we stopped at Bicester village for a little break and to pick up some yummy bargains which was nice and now I'm back home and raring to go and shift some poundage!!
So food wise I was pretty good. TS all weekend with loads of water consumed when at work! Mon I has 3 TFR then a meal of pork chop (no fat) and salad. Tues had bacon sausage and egg for brekkie, 2 TFR then evening scrummy meal of mushroom, stilton and spinach to start then steak and salad for main. Wed I had 3TFR then lunch of a cheeseburger and salad at Bicester with the bun and chips removed! So felt like good choices. Now going to be TS until results come out for my PGCE then if I pass it will be steak o clock- if not then nutella hehehe!!!
WI on Monday had only lost 2lbs so was a bit gutted especially as I had been good but had been totm. Now to remain good until Monday hey!
Feeling enthusued today so am going to brave a swim. Can;t remember the last time I went swimming locally rather than just on holiday! Am full of nerves as I truly hate bearing flesh but am determined to do it so please wish me luck. I will post later hopefully to say i did it!!!!! How many lengths would be acceptable for a first time swim this year????
Hope everyone else is OK- will be catching up on diaries throughout the day xxxx

Well just in from my swim. Actually really enjoyed it but now feel really floaty and all funny! Time for a shake me thinks! Managed 40 lengths so am very impressed with that! Felt like a right fat flump but hey ho i still did it! Will see if I can squeeze one in again tomorrow.
The 2lb loss was pre-going away Clair so tis crap really!
As for kitty- she is slowly getting worse and the tool cannot decide what we should do. Got about a week to decide me thinks!
How's you guys?

Why oh why did i do a sneaky weigh in this morning???
I weighed 15.2 on Monday which gutted me as really wanna be in the 14's and yet today I weigh 15.3!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Soooooooo very annoyed. Wish I hadn't scale hopped now as in a bad mood. Going into London for a day of retail therapy and then on to see Wicked tonight so was just going to chill out today. Feel so annoyed I'm going to go and have another swim instead!!! I hate the scales and I hate being in the 15's.................

A swim will make you feel better. I'm really proud of you, how many lengths we aiming for today? xx

really trying again!
Morning ladies....time for an update me thinks! Sorry I have been all quiet again but life in my life is never a quiet one!
So I went for a 40 length swim again on Fri morning and loved it- really enjoying the exercise! Sadly won’t be able to go until the end of next week as starting nights tonight and just won’t have time to get there and do it!
After my swim I went into the City for my day out which was nice. Had a few revelations throughout the day diet wise which were quite eye opening. On the train there it was an old style one with seats with arms and traditionally I know that I cannot fit in them and if I do I end up with bruises on my legs where the rests dig into my sides! So I stood up for the 30 min journey quite happily listening to my iPod. Then the stop before the City I thought I’d try the seats for size and was quite shocked to fit in with ease and some room too! Really are the little things that mean so much hey!
So I wandered around the shops for a while but managed to buy nothing. Then treated myself to a chicken and bacon salad in Ask which was simply gorgeous. Does drive me mad when they put lemon in your water tho! Hey ho. Then off I went to see Wicked (on my own- sad I know!!) and here I had another revelation. The last 2 times I saw a show in January were again painful embarrassing affairs as I could not fit in the seats and sent the whole show in agony so I was dreading going in. Totally unnecessary tho as yet again slipped in with ease. Oh how I felt happy. Whilst watching people take their seats I saw a group of 4 rather large ladies come in and see them face my previous problems and could just see their uncomfort throughout the whole performance. I truly empathised with them and seeing them sweat and rapidly breathe due to the all the stairs. Did make me realise who far I’d come to not be out of breath and to be comfortable. The show was absolutely stunning and I truly loved it- I’m a true musical lover at heart!!
Sadly my day was tinged with a tint of anxiety tho. As I left the pool in the morning I had a call from the hospital to ask me to come in on Monday as the Dr needs to see me, or as I was told it was important she sees me!!! This is all related to the mole I had off back in May! I was discharged from hospital in June haven been given the all clear but the result didn’t seem to match with the history of the mole so they were going to re-investigate it so I can only guess that this is what the appointment is about. I had thought all was ok as I hadn’t heard anything for 3 months. Being in healthcare I know that you don’t get a phone call on a Friday and be asked to come in on a Monday for no reason so I am truly bricking it now about what it could be. The tool is being lovely about it and is coming home from work to take me. I really can’t think of anything else to be honest but know there is nothing I can do but wait and see then face whatever it is. As for Mog- we have decided to get the leg off to give her a chance so got to book that in the morning too! So sounds like I am in for a mega week!
Oh top with that with a job interview on Friday and 4 night shifts starting tonight.....what do I do to myself?
On a positive tho I did go an put down a deposit for a new car yesterday so hopefully all being well with the hospital tomorrow that will be picked up on Saturday!!!
Diet wise I’m still on track but scales have not budged an ounce! Does stress affect them anyone know???? I do have a jar of nutella in the cupboard for emergency use if required. I have got the too, to write on the seal so he will know if I have caved in!!! So today pre-night shift I am going to make some apple chutney ready for Christmas and a big apple cake (my absolute fave!) for the tool and his work mates! Got loads of apples from my Ma in law this week so feel the need to use them up so that’ll keep me busy for a good few hours me thinks.
Hope everyone is doing OK and having a good weekend. Will be catching up with diaries on my nights and promise to cheer up soon xxxxxxx
