[irish molly]

Jan, you don't need luck. I have every confidence that you will be fab on it.
Have a good day and keep busy.

 

[kered]

hahaha I love the dog with the pearls on ... is that given you an idea Mary?!!!

Of course Tanya

RIGHT!! I've got my supplies - no leaflet/booklet enclosed but it ain't rocket science.
I haven't felt very well today so i haven't binged the way i probably would have done otherwise - which - despite not liking not feeling well is no doubt a good thing. It hasn't stopped me having a farewell coupla V&Cs though. LOL! What am I like - you'd think I was never going to eat or have a drink ever again instead of only 3 or 4 weeks.

Wish me luck folks, I'll let you know what i think of the various flavours xx

Good luck, not that you will need it though hun, I know you will give it 100%

Jan .... you are a star!!! Thankyou for your sponsorship & donation to Alzheimers. I know i've texted you but want to thank you again

Tanya, can you post your link again please and I will donate tomorrow.

Thanks Tan - Can't answer that for sure till i get weighed in the morning but i think it might be around 20lbs not possible in the time I know but should make good head way. I'll have a better idea tomorrow xxx

Well D Day tomorrow hun, you will be fine. Dont worry about those scales, at least you know you have enjoyed getting to where you are, and the damage will SOON be un-done.

Oh yeah ... AFTER the hot cross bun & last V&C xxx Night Night xxx

Wow early night............

It's in my signature Mary (www.justgiving.com/tanya-jane-evans) there's no rush hun there's still 7weeks to go, none of the fam have sponsored me yet lol and please don't feel like you have to donate just your support on here is plenty enough to keep me going

 

[kered]

Oh dont worry hun, I dont feel like I HAVE to, but I WANT to because I am so proud of you and what you are running for.

 

[summergurl]

Hi Jan,

Hope all is going well for day 1

Did u have an official WI this morning? Do you know how much your looking to lose?

 

[irish molly]

Jan , hope you are getting into the zone!! Just keep thinking that in a few short weeks you will be rid of those pesky pounds that have been lurking since the winter. 100% all the way! Go girl!

 

[JanD]

Thanks folks

Well official wi wasn't QUITE as bad as I expected probably with not feeling so good yesterday - but it was bad enough. A gain of 10lbs making me now 11st 5.4lbs as some of you know 11st is my 'Oh F*ck' limit! SO I've smashed that ceiling but no matter I am addressing it now So to get right back to where I felt the best is 16.4lbs (of course you know how our contrary brains work - I'm now thinking oooo another few lbs would be nice though **slaps own head** )

I had a strawberry shake for b/f - nothing to write home about but ok. I thought I'd like that one least so thought I'd try it first. I'm having 2 soups, one for lunch and one for tea which will be Thai chicken and Mushroom and I'm taking a bar to work. I know that looks like 4 meals but I'll only have 2 the day I finish (iykwim). I've had 2 black decaf coffees, 1 green tea and 500mls sparkling water up to now. Much more will be imbibed don't worry.

So far so good (LOL ... She said half a day in )

Off to look at a house with eldest son in a minute. SO sad they're breaking up as you know but I can't help feeling a little pleasure that my son and his boys will probably be moving much closer to me - hope that doesn't sound incredibly selfish - I will be able to help out a lot more that the current 40 mile round trip allows me to xx

 

[MiniB]

Jan you could easily get rid of those 16lbs in 3 weeks. Just stick with it and drink plenty of water. Just a reminder, I was told you're not meant to have 2 bars a day because of the carb content or something. I'm having a shake, a bar and a soup a day that way they will all be used up at the right rate.

Must be nice to think your son and boys are moving closer to you but like you said, it's also such a shame. I bet you can't wait to be able to see more of them though.

Day one going well I hope!

 

[JanD]

Yep that's my plan Bev, a shake a bar and a soup a day. Today though when I'm up all day AND all night I want to take the bar to work - so much easier than mixing stuff up. The extra soup is actually tomorrow's lunch (when I'll be asleep). Then I'll have a shake when I get home, a soup when I get up and take a bar to work thurs & fri. Saturday I'll have the shake for breakie and a bar for tea when I get up. I'll have had 12 products, 4 of each in 4 days . Then I'm back to sleeping at night so I'll have a shake for breakie, soup for lunch and bar for tea. xxx

 

[JanD]

Just had the Thai chicken soup - I didn't expect to like it but it wasn't bad, I wouldn't like to have to have it every day though. xx

 

[JanD]

It was just very painful upping all my weight records by 10lbs but had to be done or I wouldn't be able to drop them next week! x

 

[summergurl]

Glad you are finding the products ok so far And seeee we told you you're gain wasnt going to be as bad as you thought - it never is :giggle:

Sad times for your son Jan and no you don't sound selfish at all by saying you like the fact theyre moving closer.

xxxx

 

[irish molly]

Good work Jan. It's good that the products are not too yeuchy.
Well done on changing your stats to reflect the gain. It show we can face the challenge and get just as big a kick when we drop the figures back a few pounds each week.
Your son will get a lot of support from you and you will be giving a lot of yourself to help him settle. So I don't see how you are selfish at all.
Keep strong.

 

[kered]

Glad the day is going okay for you Jan, I knew you would be fine chick.
Not selfish at all, pity about the break up, but nice that your family will be closer to you.

 

[JanD]

Fingers crossed - the house needs a lot of work but is a great price. xx

 

[kered]

Look at all the exercise though, no doubt Mum will be called for help

 

[JanD]

With the best will in the world there's no way I can fit bathrooms, kitchens or central heating! xx

 

[summergurl]

Haha but I bet you'll be ropes in for painting & general cleaning!! Hehe xx
