Oh no! Fingers crossed the app comes through quick sharp then! :) xx
 
2 teaspoons hot choc pdr & a crunchie :( x
 
Well I can see I'm going to have to rethink this whole eating malarky. In the nearly 2 weeks I've been trying to eat 'properly' and 'sensibly' I've only managed 1 day where I felt I achieved that and I've put on weight.
I'm beginning to get scared I'll be going into the christmas season heavier than I've been for ages and i'm really not happy at that thought. We're also wanting to go away for a few days for our anniversary the week after next and i hate the fact that i'm thinking I don't want to go and don't want to do anything because i'm just getting heavier and heavier at the moment. I hate it!

I'm not even going to post all that went down my neck in the night last night and this morning. I'm just disgusting!

I really need to get back on a straight and narrow - I just don't know which one yet!

Rant over :eek: ;) xxx
 
Aww Jan you're not disgusting!
If you feel u need to do something different then now's the time. There are 6 weeks until Xmas - what works best for you? Calorie counting/ww pp/2 shakes 1 meal/low carb?

If u really don't want to go away just now would John be ok with having a late anniversary getaway?

Xxxx
 
Don't think he'd be too happy actually and I've got that week off work .... Why couldn't I just have either NOT put so much on during and after my september hol OR got to grips with it immediatley after???? Why Why Why .... Rhetorical questions of course. We all know there's no rhyme or reason ... :sigh:

I'll have to have a think about how to go forward. Any of the things you mentioned will work - except perhaps for ww. I sts on that last time. This healthy eating/low GL would work if i bloomin' well stuck to it!! xx
 
Ah Jan, you sound v frustrated. You are wise enough to find your way through this blip. These last few days are not typical as you have the worry of DD's illness.
Read back your food diary over a couple of weeks and see where you can improve, what are specific triggers for going into overeat mode, portion sizes, composition etc.
Personally, I believe in three small meals together with two or three small snacks and two litres of water everyday day. Ensure that you combine protein and carbs at every meal.
I know you will find your own way. You always do!
 
Thanks Molly.

I have analysed the type of things you mention for years and never come up with anything solid. I'll think I've found a reason but in the long term it all comes back again and again no matter what I do. Still - nothing is permanent and that includes this state of affairs. I'll ride out the storm and then make the most of the even keel that follows - for as long as THAT lasts.
At least I have this place to moan, groan and gain support during the more difficult phases. xx
 
I can feel your pain Jan, I know exactly what you are going through.

Would it help if any time you wanted to put something into your mouth, that you have not planned on eating that day to text one of us...........I am sure we can ride this thing out together. Like you say, Xmas is JUST around the corner.

Hop on that bus today Jan, read your signature........WE CAN DO IT.
 
How about we set up a little Xmas challenge? Would that help maybe? You know we're always around to listen to u.

And like Mary said look at your signature: u can do it!! :D :D xxx
 
I like the texting suggestion Mary .... trouble is I'd be texting by the minute at the moment!!! And half the time it's in the middle of the night.
I WILL get back on track I WILL I WILL I WILL ......... Just don't know when! ;o

I'm not in the right frame of mind for challenges at the mo :( - I need to find the switch in my head to put me back in the right frame and jump on it!!!

I do appreciate the suggestions though :) - just sorry i can't be more positive about them :eek: xx
 
Feel free to text me night times Jan :)

You're sounding a bit more positive by saying you will get back on track.

Xxx
 
Ah thanks hon ... as long as it's not my weekend working eh! ;)

As for 'I WILL' .... I'm gonna have to or I'm gonna BURST!!! :( xx
 
Is it your weekend on again this weekend?xx
 
HaHa noooooooooooo - I didn't mean this weekend :D ... no this is my last night till wednesday - but thanks :D xx
 
Jan, hope your girl is doing o.k. Take care.
 
Hi Guys :D

I didn't get on last night - we had the boys here so I purposely didn't put the 'puter on coz you know what it's like when it's there right next to you and I wanted to give them my full attention.

DD is still having 'episodes' despite the medication. Just crossing fingers her appointment comes through soon!!

I'm doing my best to have a good day today. I wasn't hungry this morning so i didn't have anything. Cooked a full roast for dinner of which i intended to have just the chicken & veg but ended up adding 2 roasties and a load of gravy - still don't think that's too bad - certainly not compared to what I've been having lately!
Dreading wi tomorrow - I thought about not bothering but I need to face the music to hopefully be spurred into action!!
 
Awwww you'd think they'd hurry up an appointment for something like that - especially when they tell her she could litterally drop dead from exercise - thats pretty serious! I do hope it all gets sorted soon for her though :fingerscrossed:

Jaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaannnnn don't tell me you skipped breakfast?! :eek:
Roast sounded great, 2 roasters and loads of gravy is not going to hurt :) xx
 
LOL! I knew you'd pick me up on that ;) ... no I didn't but if you'd seen what i've had the last few days it's no wonder I wasn't hungry ... a one off, I promise!

V&Cs are being imbibed ... wouldn't you know, in the pub coz they were showing the Liverpool match (Don't really understand the logic!) they came and put a bowl of chips on everyones's table!!!!! I had 3 little crispy ones - john had a few and then i made him go and put them on another table!!!! FGS .... is noone on my side!!! ;) xx
