Helen's quest for good health!

The grandkids popped over to see me today, very sweet but had to keep telling Jake not to jump on my hip! Aaah!

Mark did a BBQ for lunch, I stayed SW friendly with homemade burgers and salad and Lizzi said she preferred the look of my burgers, I told Mark I should have made them for all of us! X

When you posted this I thought... NO way you don't look old enough!

I think you should add in another positive
4 I have made a positive decision for my future health :):)

Thanks that's a good one, I find it really hard to come up with positives even though overall I'm a positive person in life!

I am supportive of others
I feel happy with ........(what ever area of you life you like - eg relationships diet (in the wider sense of the word diet) my health (which ever aspect you like) etc

Thanks for popping in, didn't have time to get on yesterday as we left quite early and had a late night, thanks for the ideas for positives, there exactly what's required for the pods. Hope you're okay, will catch up with your diary soon x

:wavey: hello Helen popped into to see you and you are not here :giggle: hope all is well my lovely :hug99: how have you been getting on since your sessions with the hypnotherapist? xxxxxxx

Hey Jackie, hope you had a fab holiday, we missed you, I've been good since the sessions, really think I'm getting somewhere, still not quite 100% but that will come and I haven't got the CD from her yet so need to chase that up. It's weird I feel more confident and feel that people are accepting me and then I realise I'm not quite there, like yesterday my friend touched up her makeup in the toilets, I just can't do that, won't even look at myself in the mirror if there's other people there, I couldn't stay with her, I had to walk away, just feel like everyone is staring at me and wondering why I'm bothering to touch it up as make ups not going to change my body! I know I'm strange!

How are you since yours? X
 
Had a fab weekend, it's been lovely and hot, been coated in sun cream so I haven't burnt but could have done with jumping in a swimming pool, although I did go in the lake to paddle today!

Racing was good, won £3.44 whoop whoop but did have a £5 stake so that wasn't good but my friend won £75! It was a bit bad drink wise as they kept running out of things including water, I was gasping.

My cousin cooked us fajitas before going so we wouldn't be tempted by burgers etc which although naughty I'm sure was better than succumbing at the race course, Jessie J was good but didn't perform for that long which was disappointing. After the racing we went to a steak restaurant, my friend wanted to do the 72oz challenge but was advised not too after all the alcohol we'd consumed. I had a lovely rib eye steak, avoided dessert and crisps and popcorn once we got back and also stopped drinking even though the others carried on.

This morning my cousin cooked us a fry up and luckily grilled everything but I did give in to white bread and homemade jam. We then went for a walk around the lakes and whilst everyone else enjoyed icecreams I just had water. Not long got back and while everyone else is having KFC I am having some SW burgers from the freezer although I have just had a macaroon, hoping I can pull it back and still have a loss on Thursday.

maybe I should look into those pods - shame I cant get them second hand as I doubt they are cheap
but perhaps if they help the way you think about things and yourself I might just have to invest after all I am so worth it :):)

hope you have had a great weekend
dont worry about the exact numbers of syns just record what you are eating and use the essence of SW along with your pods :) after all it is just a healthy eating plan at the end of the day and I am sure that is what the pods suggest :)
 
its taken a while to settle since my sessions but think I am now. Takes a while for the downloads to kick in too. Its like a ping effect that emotion /feeling has gone but then you need to rebuild new ones. I still need to go swimming, I do plan to though :D and deal more with my driving as not attempted much but little steps hey? you will do this my lovely and I did the mirror thing too so you are not strange. Now I can't say I love what I see but I see it differently :hug99: xxxxxxx

I'm glad you're investing in them as per PM, they're definitely worth the money.

I've had a fab weekend and have eaten less than I used to on a weekend away, my neighbour sent me a text saying she was really proud of me getting back on track straight away x

You will get in that swimming pool and possibly wonder why you hadn't before, I really hope you love it, you're coming on miles with the driving already.

You should love what you see as you look amazing and so radiant too, glad I'm not the only one with the mirror thing as my cousin and friend thought I was mad! X
 
got my down loads cant find the mp3 player (typical) so they are on lappy and will take it to bed to listen to them first thing in the morning
problem is I gave wrong email addy (missed one letter out) so no book and no password - I have emailed them and hope to hear from them tomorrow :):)
 
and please enlighten me on the mirror thing
sounds like some secret club the pair of you are hinting at :D

Don't drop the lap top please! They accidently forgot to send me the keep weight loss going cd and when I contacted them they emailed me straight away, I know some other girls are in touch with Thinking Slimmer and they are very good so I am sure they will sort it for you soon, I can send you a link to the handbook if need be, let me know.

As for the mirror, I just won't look in the mirror if there's someone else there, ie. strangers in a toilet at a pub or somewhere, I feel like they are wondering why I'm bothering looking at myself! X
