Hi Mini, thanx hun, how have u been. I am pleased about the jeans, i look at them and are still disgusted with myself when i see how big they are but i know deep down that i am doing the best i can at the momnent and hopefully by christmas i will be down to a size 24 and i am staying off the scales and just keeping an eye on the inches instead.

As i have been away from the site for the past couple of months have loads of catching up to do.
Take care xx
 
Hiya Roch

Lotsa luv Julie xx

Looking forward to chatting 2 u soon, take care x
 
Hi Roch,

Lovely to see you back and in such good form, we missed you:grouphugg:

I am sure you will find like myself that as the weight comes off you get more active and the inches do begin to drop off at a faster rate as you tone.

Your right to stay away from the scales if they play mind games with you.

Fingers crossed for a size 24 jeans for you for Christmas:)

One day at a time Roch.

Love Mini xxx
 
Hi hon
Good to hear from you and with such positive news.
Great news on the jeans - feels lush to wear them again I bet :D

Dogs look lovely and very contented - happy household eh? Good news.
Diet sounds like it's doing the trick too!

So, lovely news all 'round! Wonderful!
Hope you have a smashing week.

Love

Jennie

Hi Jennie, how r u doing hunny, have missed chatting 2 u. I have never worn jeans b4 so its really weird for me.
You are looking amazing well done 2 u girl !!
Ny 2 munchkins are very contented but very spoilt by me but at the same time obedient as i am strict with them big time.

Diet wise had to take a different route as nothing was working for me but so far it seems to be working for me and given me more energy which i def need big time.

So hun whats new with u i am sure u have been up 2 sooooo much but as i have not been on the site for the last couple of months i have so much reading to do to catch up lol.

Looking forward to chatting to u, take care and ty for always supporting me xxxxxxxx
 
Thanks to all of u for ur posts yesterday, nice to know i have not been forgotten lol.

Wheni was admitted to hospital with Sceptesemia i got a serious shock, i was told my blood sugars were 8.9 and i had not eaten or drunk anything for over 14 hrs and my bp was seriously high, have been told i am borderline diabetic but hearing my bs results shocked me, when i was released from hospital my bs had gone down to 6.5 and my gp is keeping a close eye on it and my blood pressure which has gone down alot but is still a bit high.

I follow the Charles Clark dietbook which is low carb,low fat and high protein and seems to be working well for me, also take vitamins and tabs with glucosamine for my joints. Am happy to be 2 sizes down and i am hoping to be a size 24 by christmas which will be the size i was when i had Aaron so that would be nice.

The cab office will be called "Moss Cars" in memory of my beautiful mum who passed away of Breast cancer when she was 36 and also her mum and dad my grandparents who adopted me and my brother when my mum passed.
I am a partner and will be managing the office as well so it will be very hectic for me in the begining and i need all the phyisical and emotional strength i have.

Am off to the office this morning as am having the phone lines installed today as we cant have a cab office without phones lol.
Hope u have a good day, hope to catch up later take care x
 
Ty Kandy and Sweetbun for your posts sorry did not respond but have not posted at all since November just been lurking.

Well here i am and as i said have been lurking for the past few months and needed to gain enough courage to start posting again, started by saying hello in the shoutbox but could not gain the courage to post again, but here i am.

We opened up the 0ffice "moss cars" in November and my buisness partner decided to sell the company on after 3 weeks and as i did not put any finances in but just had 15% shares i did not have any real say, so after 3 weeks i had no job again and major depression hit in and i became a total recluse and did not even leave the house to even go shopping, did that online and most days wouyld get up have a shower and put clean pj`s back on and just mong and of course eat and eat and as my sciatica has not eased up at all i was quite happy to be a couch potato.
All this carried on till i got a letter from my housing association offering me an urgent housing transfer from my flat to a 2 bed semi detatched house in Enfield, this really perked me up and came to view the house, what a sorry disgusting state it was in and they only did major repairs and cosmetically it was up to me, but i took the house and now 8 weeks on am just getting sorted, but its been hard coping with the depression and trying to deal wiith fixing the house up.

Weight wise i am at my heaviest i have ever been most prob around 29 stone and of course felt like sh-t phyisically and emotionaly and flet like giving up many times and like i said b4 did not have the courage to come online and post as i felt like i was posting to just get support and did not want
peeps to feel sorry for me and this is not what i am about. I got myself in this sitution myself and i have to drag myself out and straighten myself out, and taking the first steps to post today makes me feel better.

My house is coming on nicely and have just finished getting the bathroom tiled from top to bottom and also got the kitchen tiled and it looks lovely, bit by bit its starting to feel like a home and not a shell lol.

I decided to go back on the anti d tabs as i feel that i really need a serious helping hand and have been on them for the past 4 days and am already sleeping much better so thats a plus big time.
I decided to have a restyle and went to the hairdressers and had my hair cut like Michelle Steves girlfriend in coronation st, except mine has blond highlights, my hair was only 3 inches from my waist it was seriously long, everyone says it makes me look much younger, pmsl !!( for any of u who are not couch potato like me thand dont watch sad programmes like C street her haikr is cut into a sharp jaw length bob)
To put the icing on the cake i was told i had to get rid of my puppy phatboy which made me so upset as i was breaking the terms of my tenancy as i am only allowed one dog, but we found a good home for him round the corner from our new home and it is a good friend of Aarons, so when we walk Ebony Aarons friend walks Phatboy so they see each other.

I had so many dreams and aspirations for the cab office and how ikt was going to change my life but unfortunately it was not meant to be and i have done my time monging and feeling sorry for myself and now its time to get up and get out.
I will be "40" in 8 weeks time and i really need to be looking different by then and feeling confident and more happy, they say life starts at 40 and i really hope that my life will def change by the time i reach 40, but i know that nobody can make those changes for me but myself and i am responsible for myself and everything is out there waiting for me to reach out and grab my chances and happiness and i just need to start beleiving in myself and making those changes.

I must admit i do need support as i have cut myself off from everybody even my best friend i have distanced myself a bit from as i feel i am an embarassing person to be seen with at this size and when ever i am with her and peeps make comments she tells me to just ignore them i feel bad and embarassed, although my best friend would cuss me off if she read what i wrote i cant help how i feel.

I am starting a new pc course net week to do more levels on the ECDL course i started last year as i did level 1 and passed but need to finish the other levels, also am doing a typing course from home to improve all my typing skills as i only type around 25 words a min now with a few mistakes lol and want to get it up to 60 wpm, so at least i will be employable with decent skills, but that is if employers can see past my phyisical side and see my personality and skills.

Weight wise i am going to try lipotrim again, yes i know i have tried every vlcd hundreds of times and every diet plan thousands of times and given up at the first stumbling block but as i have always been told " try and try again till u sucseed " and hopefully that will be the scenario for me.

So from today onwards i am cutting down the carbs and from friday will do no carbs at all till i start my packs on Monday so hopefull this will make it a bit easier for me, without grumbling tummys and carb withdrawal headaches.

Am off to B&Q now to get some grass seed for my little bit of grass outside my house, and just had my turf laid in my back garden, it will be so nice to be able to sit outside in the back garden in the summer just chillin.

Well catch up later, take care and have a good day xx
 
Wow, Roch, you have been through the mill, haven't you? You don't give up though, you just keep dreaming the dream that will become the reality.

Your house sounds lovely, like you've worked miracles on it and it's good to know your two doggies still get together!

I wish you well, as always and really hope that this time will be your golden time and you will achieve what you long for.

Lovely to hear from you again.

Love

Good to see you back in form and best of luck with your new fresh start.

Love Mini xxx
 
Welcome back darling, lovely to see you posting again. You certainly have been through the wringer these past few months.

I can only admire your grit and determination to keep at it. Well done you xxxx
 
Hey Roch... great to see you back!!

Well done for having the courage to post again :D:D

Take care of yourself

Gen xxx
 
It's great to see you back.... please keep posting
 
Hi Roch

Hope the garden is looking better and that the lipotrim is working its magic for you.

Don't put too much pressure on yourself... let the antidepressants really start working (usually takes about 2-4 weeks depending what ones they are) and then tackle things one at a time.

40 is just a number.. life begins when it begins... my life began again at 43.. :eek:) There's no golden rule honey. Just take it a day at a time. Don't worry about friends. In time you will get new friends and build new social circles. For now, just do what you can, when you can, as best you can.

You're a fighter, like me, a survivor. Life does have good things in store for you, it's simply a case of carrying on regardless until they come together.

Much love
Jennie

Just want to say I am so glad you are back among your friends as we have missed you. You are going to give it another go so you are not a quitter. The taxi business was out of your control but there will be something out there for the future and meanwhile getting the certificates is the best thing to do

And good luck with LT

Irene xx
