hey yummy! sorry to hear u r not oo good today! Im guessing u not weighing then hunny?

bet u r dead excited for weekend arent ya

[Soon to be yummy mummy]

I DID weigh Katie!! Quite pleased considering I haven't being giving my all this month at all!

I just said to Piink on her thread, everyone's doing SO well and are so motivated! And i've got to admit to being more than a little bit jealous!! My head's not been in the right place in Sept, all my own fault I know.....just gotta pick it bk up and get bk in there now, whatever "it" is! lol!

Just weighed and lost another 3lbs, so with the 10lbs in August and this 3lbs so far this month, that means I'm 1lbs off a stone....19lbs in total, with the 6lbs I lost on my own before starting Xenical. I haven't been taking the tabs for about 2 weeks coz things have been hectic with AB being ill and going back to work etc.....but bk on them today. No more excuses! Hope I'm half as successful as the others on here are!

So, 3lbs down.....only 9lbs to go to meet my target for Sept!! Some how don't think I'm going to make it! lol!

But anything will be good with the way I've been eating this month!

Work was cancelled for today that's why I'm home! (always happening on supply, teachers courses get cancelled, teachers back off sick.....) so only worked one day this week! But I'm working FIVE next week! Boo. I'll just have to grin and bear it and think of the money! Prob do 3 days the week after then....so not too bad.

Yeah I AM looking forward to the weekend, tho prob not gonna be good for my diet!

My tea last night was chicken breast chunks in pitta bread with lettuce, grated carrot, grated red cabbage, onions and tomato with a little bit of brown sauce.....don't know WHY brown sauce - just fancied it! lol!

So far today I haven't had a lot as feeling VERY sick and stomach-crampy and haven't even taken my tabs for 2 weeks so it cant be coz of any naughty fat! hope its not a bug!

I've had half a litre of Volvic Still Strawberry flavoured water and a bowl of Coco-pops munchies with skimmed milk.

I've been fannying around all morning trying to find a Salon that will do my hair for the weekend, I'm naturally medium brown but have been dying my hair since I was about 12! I was blonde on and off from about 12yrs old - 20yrs old, but at the moment its like as dark brown with a hint of red, and I wanna go back blonde!! Desperately!! And like everything with me, i want it done yesterday! lol.

But 3/5 salons I use on-off have said it cant be done in one go because of the red in it, they've said I've got 2 choices:
*either TRY and go blonde and go through that horrible orange/copper colour stage and THEN I can go blonde in the next 2-3 trips

or

*have a head of blonde highlights and see how they take, if they go that orange/copper colour then it won't be so noticeable as if it was all over!

Now one salon has said they CAN do it in one go, but it'll cost £200 :-( and i've got to go down there for a strand test, they'll cut a snip of hair from the back of my head (underneath) dye that and see how that takes then go from there....... prob gonna pop down after.

Right gonna have some dinner......

WOW yummy that is some fantastic shopping spree and you sound so energetic it's great. Now i know your saying you havent felt motivated this last month but it certainly hasnt showed in your posts, you always come across very motivated and helpful and it's really nice reading what you've been up to

Hope you're not coming down with a tummy bug , keep drinking plenty of fluids to flush it out and try taking some vitamin C. Bet you're going to look stunning this weekend, those outfits really do sound gorgeous

oooo the hair front does sound RATHER expensive. I remember a few yrs ago dyeing my hair red and brown and it cost me £60 to get it changed, i couldnt to blonde all over but they put a lighter brown on the red highlights and a blonde on the brown bits and then the next time i went i could got a lil bit lighter with the brown.

 

[Soon to be yummy mummy]

Thanks Nina - I don't always feel motivated!! I feel like I've been really BAD this month especially!

Still in a dilemma over my hair.....seems that Salons CAN do it, but only if they can be bothered as it takes about 5 hours! I've cancelled the expensive appointment and just gonna go as blonde as I can go at the cheaper Salon on Sat morning, gonna call in tomorrow to see if they can chat it over with me a bit more to see if I can tell more what its gonna turn out like..........fingers crossed!

Been bad AGAIN today....bum.

Brekkie was cocopops munchies with skimmed milk - 179cals

Dinner was a handful of chip-shop chips pinched off my mum and a bread roll! Not good. About 400 cals??

Tea was 2 muffins with ham-type-spread.... 450cals

Snacks - a cereal bar - 160cals

So not TOO bad on cals (total of 1189cals) but bet I'm gonna get dreaded orange oil from my dinner especially!

I'm gonna be busy tomorrow, going for interviews with agencies, trying to sort out my hair! and then the girlie night in the night, so I'm planning on eating (&drinking!):

*Cereal with skimmed milk
*Dinner - a ham salad sandwich
*Tea - a chicken salad OR cheese&tomato pasta

*Drinks - vodka and diet coke / white wine

Only a few tomorrow coz my hair appt is 9am on Sat morning!

Right, gonna nosey at other people's pages before I go&watch The Bill in bed!! Mmmm Smithy!

xxxx

 

[kae]

hey hun!!!
you sound one busy lady tomoz! just think about all the cals u will burn hehehe

 

[ninajw83]

You'll have to get on the dancefloor all night and dance away the extra kcals

Hope you have an amazing weekend hun, you deserve it xx

 

[Soon to be yummy mummy]

Thanks hunni - def gonna be doing some dancing tomorrow night!!

Ooh I'm right annoyed today! Again! lol! I facebooked all my mates this morning organising a night on the town for my b.day, its not til 15th October but coz I've got AB I have to plan in advance to make sure I've got a babysitter, and also some of my mates work nights/weekends so had to organise it early to make sure they can get it off work and can all come! SO, booked the bus today and facebooked about 30 friends, everyone's well up for it, so was getting real excited!

I asked my mum to babysit for this night about 2 weeks ago and she said yes....then my sister who is 27!! went crying, yes CRYING! to my mum that if we ALL go out (meaning me, my other 2 sisters, our friends/joint friends....) she can't come because if I go out my mum will be having AB for me and so she hasnt got anyone to have her little girls that night!! It's MY sodding birthday!! So now my mum has actually turned around and said shes not having AB!! I cant bloody believe it! Its SO unfair and I'm so annoyed!

And my sister has a partner! The girls' dad - so why cant he bloody have them for the night??!! SO cross!

Foodwise, I was out and about early so didnt have any brekkie, dinner was a ham baguette with a big side salad.

Waiting for OH to come home now to rant to him about the unfairness of my sis and my mum!!

Gonna nosey @ other people's pages
xxxx

 

[ninajw83]

omg yummy that's dreadful how inconsderate of your sister Cant you have a word with your mum about it maybe in a few days when you've had time to calm down?? On the plus side you do have almost 1 month to get something else sorted if she won't budge. Cant have you not going out on your bday it's just not on!!!!

Sending lots of hugs and hope you manage to have a good weekend regardless and able to take your mind off it xxx

 

[kae]

[chinababe]

Hi Yummymummy
Love the sound of the stuff you bought, I'm sure you will look fab. Hope your crampy thing has settled down
Enjoy the weekend

 

[kae]

hungover????

 

[Soon to be yummy mummy]

Ha ha! yeah i am hungover katie! not good.

Nah she wont feel guilty-my sister shows NO remorse. Hopefully my mum will tho....gonna leave it drop for now coz my mum's having AB tonight for OH's birthday, so not gonna push it incase she says no for tonight!

I've had my hair done.....it's not blonde-blonde! I had to have a full head of highlights in the end coz she cut a bit off yesterday and dyed that and showed me it this morning and it was like a lush platinum blonde on the roots but a dodgy orange colour on the ends! so she explained that if she'd did that ALL OVER then I would've been half blonde half orange! not a good look!

BUT when the highlights came off, the blonde actually took really well! so i can go back in 3-4 weeks time and THEN i'm allowed to go blonde all over!! so that'll be in time for my birthday!! woop woop!! so when I go in 3 weeks I'm gonna have 4 different colours put in!! (golden,platinum, honey and like a light brown). And it only cost a bargain £56! and that was for a cut too! yay!

I went out last night and got quite drunk on 3 double vodkas and a glass of wine!! normally take alot more than that, then I realised I'd only eaten a ham baguette all day! oops!

Today I've not eaten alot yet but will make up for that tonight! lol! the food in the restaurant we're going to is a la carte and is just devine!! yum yum!! Think I'm gonna leave the alcohol there tho, feel SO rough today!

I had to skip brekkie today to get to the salon, so I made myself a seeded roll filled with mexican chicken and salad as soon as I got home!

Now I think I'm going out for lunch with my friend coz OH is taking AB to watch his brother play rugby. Gonna be good for dinner tho coz I'm being naughty tonight!

Hope everyone else is doing well?

Thanks for all the support girlies, it really IS appreciated!

xxxx

 

[chinababe]

Hair sounds really nice & £56 is a good deal. I pay £40 just for cut & blow in little hairdressers in Essex. so def a bargain.

 

[kae]

hey yummy!!

hair sounds lush!! i thik i need a change tooo now u mention it!!

hope u have a wicked night hunny!!

luv katie

 

[Soon to be yummy mummy]

Morning girlies,

I'm SO tired this morning :sigh:, been up since 5am with AB coz she's poorly again! Still the same thing with a cough/stuffed up etc...but it had nearly gone and now she's back real bad again. not good. Didn't get in til 1 either! so 4hours sleep!

OH is still in bed!! He had a good night and drank way too much!! lol

xxxx

 

[abz]

oh honey. i'm so sorry to hear about your sister. so now neither of you have babysitters. how is that helping the situation at all?? presumably your mum won't be looking after her kids instead. i would hit the roof if that were the case... well, i'd be hitting the roof in any case...

sorry to hear AB isn't well again.

abz xx

 

[Soon to be yummy mummy]

Oh I'm shattered! AB is poorly, that bloody virus still . It WAS getting better but its come back again and she's off her food and milk again and is really stuffed up, grizzly and the cough is really bad now . Neither of us slept last night and I had work today so am now falling asleep on the sofa whilst typing! lol!

AB spent the day with her daddy today as he'd booked the day off for his birthday, while mummy went to work! I had a lovely day tho, was working in a lovely school and the children&staff were really nice. Going back to same school tomorrow then my regular school Wed,Thurs and Fri so a full week for me! Not good with AB being poorly! but its only this week and i'm SO skint so desperate for pay day! My mum's got AB tomorrow and is going to take her to the doctors for me so they can check her chest and then to the baby clinic so she can be weighed.

I've been good"ish" with food but because I know we're going out with friend Wed night for another celebration for OH's birthday (to an-all-you-can-eat-chinese!!)) I seem to be in "holiday" mode and not really being good! September has been a crap month for my diet and I'm not expecting to lose much! But I'm gonna be REALLY good from Wed on.....

Today I've ate:

*breakfast - a cereal bar 80cals 0.2g fat

*Dinner - a pack of lunchables 210cals 11g fat
And a snack pack of grapes

And we're going out for tea! But I'm going to choose something healthy!

Tommorrow's food for school/work will be much the same as I don't really have time to sit and eat whilst in school, so going to try and have:

*cereal before I go

*lunchables, snack a jacks, grapes and a low fat yogurt for dinner

*low fat pasta bake for tea

No exercise tonight but I'm going to Aqua Aerobics tomorrow.

I had a really nice weekend, thankfully didn't drink TOO much, and eating wasn't TOO bad considering I was out all weekend!

Friday I had a ham salad with a white bread baguette and a few vodkas and diet cokes and half a glass of wine.

Saturday I had a mexican chicken and salad seeded roll, chicken fajitas with salsa for dinner, then when we went for our posh meal I had:

*starters - nothing!! how good was I when everyone was having big starters in fattening sauces!! Felt like a saint!

*Main - chicken fillets barbados (chicken breast fillets in like a spicy curry sauce) with chips but was SOOOO worth it!

*Nibbled on some french bread too.....

*Dessert - everyone had a dessert each but I was really restrained and SHARED a blackcurrant and white chocolate cheese-cake with vanilla icecream with OH!!

So I was quite good!! I also had 2 large glasses of wine with my meal and 2 vodkas and diet cokes in the pub afterwards. So I thought that was good for my "blowout" meal!

I still spent the whole rest of the night on the loo tho! SO embarrassing!

Sunday, I had:

*2 x English white-bread Muffins for breakfast filled with lean ham and brown sauce - 450cals

*No dinner

*Tea - a paprika chicken breast with salad and pinched 2 onion rings and a few chips off OH.

Right, going to nosey on other people's pages before we go out!

Hi hun, I was reading your thread whilst you were posting on mine.......

Hope you have a nice time with OH for birthday. Get all the celebrations out the way then tell yourself you will be good on the march towards your birthday, and then you will be celebrating fab weightloss as well as your birthday. I think you said yours was oct? So, be mega good inbetween the two, and you will get fab results. All the best xx
