Getting back in zone, to loose for good!!

Doc called and suggested more pills for Rhys's (sons) migraines and that was it.. I didn't like that he just left it, so I asked for some tests to be done. He said he'd write out a form to take to hosp for blood test, at least that was better then nothing. So will take him after college later.

Diet wise, I felt so motivated this morn, then came out of school from work at lunch time and automaticly went to Tesco.. got some Ham and ate it, lol.. :8855:I don't know why I did that.

My colleague in the office, when I came back, has been doing LL and she has lost over 4 stone :eek: now since Jan.. amazing, she looks brilliant. Asked how I was getting on, usually I would avoid that question, but hey.. what the heck, so owns up, to my gain.. she laughed and said that it would come off next week. She's right, as it will, but it just sadens me, more jealousy :jelous: too I think that she has done so well and is now given me advice..:sigh: silly me!!

Hey ho!!
 
As we have said before - some people are well suited to a VLCD and others aren't... as Clarri wrote in my diary, I just don't seem to be one of the lucky ones...

Grrrr

At least you have got somewhere with your son, just frustrates me that you really have to push to get anything done on the nhs !

Hope he is feeling a bit better today anyway
 
Good morning.

Wishy washy day here today, and am home with some study time to do my NVQ4 ;).

Took my son to the hospital earlier for some blood tests. He is worrying me, was up this morning at 2.30am, complaining of a bad head ache and feeling sick :sigh:. He was up ok getting ready earlier for college, but on way to hosp was sleeping in the car. Something is definately not right there :sick:. Anyway, tests should be back by next Friday, so will know more then.

Had a pretty good day yest, not 100% though, ate that ham,lol.. and tehn 2 low fat sausages last night too :eek:.

But good news.. :D, got on the scales earlier and they are moving down :clap:.

Has given me motivation to be good today, so have porridge with lots of cinammon in it and a black coffee on the go.

Working all weekend, nights and that is hard with dieting, as the fridge is always full of choc's :eek:. But will try to resist.

Hope its a good day for all :) xx
 
Lousy day here in Essex and worked last night, so a bit tired too. Not sure what the scales are doing, but, I did try to not jump on them this morning, really I did!! They are moved down to a loss of 7lb, since Thurs. Can that be right?

Not going to get complacent, as I know I will end up ravishing the contents of the fridge otherwise, more to reward it.. silly but true!

Anyway, ended up buying myself some hot spicy chicken wings last night from tesco and cooked them at work, just to stop my hunger (I know they are not allowed :( ).. Working all night and its either a fridge full of chocolate, cakes and biscuits or that.. Again, with the good move from the scales, I'm not counting my blessings just yet ;). But even if it stays like that til Monday and them I start loosing more.. then I should shift at least 3lb between then and Friday. FINGERS CROSSED !!! :) :)
 
Nikki...wow 7lbs! That's crazy, but thats CD for you.

Tracy...there is no shame in SW, CD is incredibibly hard to start and even harder to systain. CD is always there for you to try agin when you feel stronger. That's the way I am treating it, as long as we don't give up, we're still winning.
 
Morning :)

Scales have been kind to me again this morning, still loss of 7lb and thats fine. I didn't do well last night, had pasta, kind of got a bit hooked up in Green SW day, lol.. But over and out, this weight will come off by Friday. Just 3lb more, I'm sure I can do it..

Tracey.. I don't blame you hun, SW is easy and so much you can do with it too, re new recipes. I was watching Market Kitchen the other day, and they were making Indian Veg Patties, it was SW all the way, apart from the deep fry.. Can't wait to try them and for me, getting back to that kind of eating again, is exciting. So day after my weekend away, I'm signing up to the group around the corner, want to see how to do EE really, I understand all the Green and Red Days, but be nice to see how that works.

Kez.. CD is like a quick fix isn't it? Just not me really, can stick to another 5 days doing it, but that is my limit. Had the porridge this morn, and was gagging on it, its just Yuk, lol. Can never get all of those bits out of it..

Had a disagreement with my sister yest morning and it carried on again this morn, as we tried to sort it out.. and she is quite firey, and while I might get the hump about things she really takes it to heart.. so has left a bit of a sour taste with both of us, we are going away next weekend, and she even commented about cancelling it. Hope she doesn't, as it was only over something trivial. Have to agree to disagree with some things, which isn't bad for either side, just life really.

Might gt to the gym later with my son, get him out of the house and have a nice sknny cappacino :). Heres to a better afternoon then this morning :) x
 
Not sure what is going on with my body, but I can't seem to get enough of sausages, lol..

Scales hopper again this morn and have now lost 8lb :). 4 Days left to go and then off for my weekend away, so hoping to get another 2lb off by then. Cd is good for a quick loss but i do know, that realistically, most of it'll probably go on over the weekend.

Went to the gym yest, and didn't do anything, lol.. not sure why, lack of motivation, but did swim 38 lengths and enjoyed a cappaccino after too. Had a good night at work so all was well.

Off to gym again tonight, with a mate and might try to do a class to motivate me. Having lunch out today, Harvester, so will do the chicken and salad and Jacket.. I know its not CD food, but its better then eating chips with my chicken and.. I do need those extra cals for the gym, don't I?

Heres to a good day. x

Familys eh - shame that we can't choose our family the way we can choose our friends - would make things a lot easier.. although a little argument is nothing in the grand scheme of things is it ?

Good work with the 7lb loss - very well done

Hope that you are having a good day - catch you later

Morning Tracey.

Thanks for that x
Spoke to my sister about things again yesterday and it was still fraught.. So have agreed to draw a line under it, and not mention it again.

CD losses are good, but I know it'll go on again, but then again.. it makes me feel better before the weekend away and lighter too. Hey ho :8855: xx
 
Debating whether to cancel the gym class tonight, as my mate bowed out on me..

If I go to the gym on my own in the eve, its boring, don't mind it in the day.. but a class is better, and its a toning class too, and really want to carry that on. I'll see how I go, but as early to work this morn, early home and now bored already!! Lol..
 
Did you go to class?
 
Morning..

Didn't make it to the gym last night.. not for the want for trying, my BF's son had done something to his foot at school, so had to take him to hosp last night for an xray. My son was at his GF's for dinner, so my BF's youngest son was on his own, and so.. I stayed with him.

Am out with a friend this eve for a few diet cokes and a chat, and have arranged to do a Abs Toning class tomorrow eve (booked it, just to make sure I go, lol) and will swim after. My son has asked if he can go too, as I have a cpl of free passes, so that will be good.

Not sure why I hopped on the scales again this morn, to see if I had done any damage I suppose, for eating 3 WW sausages last night, lol. With my chicken salad for lunch, I was worrying a bit. lol. STS from yest :)

Anyway, day started off ok ;). My son has an interview at a recruitment agency later, so picking him up from college and will drop him off there. DD1, lives near there, so meeting her for coffee and Rhys will then meet us after, so that will be nice :D.

Mixed my Choc skake with coffee this morning, have mostly choc ones left, so its getting boring. Still good enough supply of the tetra's and bars, will last me another week at least. My friendfrom work who is on LL, lost another 6lb this week. I can't believe the transformation.

It really makes me want to carry on doing CD, but then I think that, the weekly losses on the 810, which really is the only plan I can stick to, is the same on SW :confused:.

Tracey.. as your friend said, some can do these VLCD, some of us can for a short time, but end up off plan. So SW is the best thing all around really. I have lots of new recipes I've jotted down and put them into an A - Z blank recipe book, so I can really enjoy SW when I join local group next Monday :eat:.

Here's for a geat day ;) xxx

Hi EternalFlame,
I've just read the last couple of pages. You seemed to be doing really well on CD (it's the Cambridge diet, isn't it?), keep motivated.
I hope your son is better, with doctors sometimes you really have to push them to do further exams, that's the NHS for you!
