Counting the days hun - girls are soooo excited as am I. Hope you had a fab time in Brum

I STS this week which I'm well happy with considering the rediculous 6lb loss last week - was convinced that however, good I was this week WI would show a gain LOL so a very happy bunny here on the WI front!

Went to see my olds yesterday and went out to lunch - had a day off diet and enjoyed a huge roast dinner with all the trimmings and a chocolate terrine for pudding - very nice but back to counting today. Did, however. wake up this morning with a stinking cold and sore throat so dont think it will be too difficult to stick to points as it blooming well hurts to swallow LOL - every cloud has a silver lining. Have spent the day pottering around in my PJ's and doing nothing - would be bliss if I didnt feel so pants LOL.

Hope everyone else is having a great weekend

 

[blackwidow]

really well done on your STS, thats really like 3lbs a week over the last two weeks so still amazing!

sorry i couldnt text you back yesterday, my phone totally died and i had forgotten my charger (you know you're not surprised! )

2 weeks cant wait to see you! xxx

 

[Less Rotund One]

Jax, you must look like a totally different woman to the one I met at the beginning of this year. You have stuck to this diet through thick and thin and have lost consistently - I would love to have your discipline.

Well done on your 7st - and here's to that last wee bit - although at bmi 25 you don't need it!

OMG you're back!!! Hope you're doing well hun.

Have had a blip today - heard at lunchtime that I've got an interview on Thursday for a job I've applied for - have spent all night trying to get keyed up and prepared for interview and ensure all bases are covered for the task - no idea what, or what age group - eek!!! This has resulted in a raid of the biscuit tin big style - old habits rearing their heads again - naughty Jax I dont even think I want the job but I do desperately need the interview practice thats for sure! Anyway as a result of the over eating on Saturday and today me thinks I need to draw a line and hope and pray for a STS although realistically I think Saturday will bring a gain

On a positive note at least my fridgefreezer is working again after two weeks of trying to get the nice man to come out and fix it!

Will try to get round diaries (especially Rosie, to catch up and Claire, as I still havent made it there yet!) towards the weekend once interview out of the way. Hope everyones doing well xxx

 

[IreneH]

Well done on the interview

Irene xx

 

[CCPM]

Deep breath Jax and pop back into the stationand get on the wagon again. You may still see a small loss

Hope the interview goes well

[blackwidow]

good luck for your interview is it same school or different one?

 

[Less Rotund One]

That biscuit tin thinks its the answer to everything - when did it get so smart!

 

[Jax123]

Well done on the interview

Irene xx

Thanks Irene, roll on this time tomorrow when it's all over and done with!

Deep breath Jax and pop back into the stationand get on the wagon again. You may still see a small loss

M

Thanks M, but havent managed to find the station yet and that low flying biscuit tin is well and truly attracted to my mouth. Am sure after this interview is over moro the wagon will come calling again and I'll climb back on although I dread to think the damage falling off has done

good luck for your interview is it same school or different one?

Different school - permanent contract as opposed to temporary one (named child) - horrific interview process though - starts at 8.15 where all candidates meet HT and SENCO and free to leave at 1pm - in between times its interview by panel as well as school council, couple of "tasks" to do (no clues given) as well as roaming around school and familiarising yourself and getting your face noticed whilst making the appropriate noises - just my cup of tea, NOT!!!! If only interviews for working with children involved just your interaction with the children not making the right impression on the adults LOL.

That biscuit tin thinks its the answer to everything - when did it get so smart!

Hey you, that flaming biscuit tin has required me to have more firm words to it in the last 48 hours than to DD's in the last month - its getting far too big for its own boots and requires a darn good kicking. Hope you're doing well hun

Needless to say diet has gone totally out window again so dreading WI on saturday. Work is a nightmare at the moment - roll on half term! Havent even looked at my OU stuff this week so will be playing catch up all next week :sigh: Have a stinking cold and my voice is just about audible - heaven help me tomorrow at this interview - on the plus side at least I'll have an excuse for not answering questions immediately and might have a few secs extra to think Catch up tomorrow when I'll be significantly less stressed!

 

[Less Rotund One]

Just wondering how the interview went and if the weigh in was as awful as you had thought

 

[IreneH]

Hope you had a great weekend with Rach.

And congratulations on your magnificent weight loss

Thanks Rosie - didnt get the job but tbh I'm not sure I really wanted the job anyhow - the timing just isnt right at the moment. As for the weigh in - probably best not to ask LOL. Restart is in the morning and am fully focused now (thanks for Rach who has been down for weekend) - hope your okay xxx

Hope you had a great weekend with Rach.

And congratulations on your magnificent weight loss

Irene xx

Fab weekend thanks Irene - dont think I deserve the congrats though had a significant gain this week but Rach has sorted me out and I'll be raring to go and pointing away come morning

 

[Less Rotund One]

glad you had a great weekend and are back with a vengeance and focussed on getting rid of that last little bit of weight. xx

 

[Jax123]

Thanks Rosie.

Today didnt go to plan - mainly because school's not back til tomorrow and well lets just say the head really wasnt in the right place this morning and just would not play ball.

Going to try another tactic for the next week; going to stick to my points allowance of 20 plus an extra 6 (which I think is the going rate for maintaining) and see how that goes for a week or so and then try and cut back to 20 points per day

Will get out on treadmill or bike hopefully in between juggling the girls social life, running the house so that OH doesnt moan (well not too much anyhow), working full time (including the course school have insisted that I go on) and this flaming OU course that I think I need my head read signing up for - Am supposed to be on the fourth week on my OU study calender but cant seem to get my head round this either - currently still working my way through the activites for the first week If I dont get a wiggle on I'll be in trouble - first TMA is due to be posted off within a fortnight Beginning to panic at the thought of it but tbh I dont have 5 mins to myself in the week and the weekends just seem to fly past at 100 mph. It's hard to believe we've had half term and I havent got anything ticked off my "list of things to do in the next school holidays". One bonus I guess is that at least I dont need to make a new list for chrimbo hols as its already done - so guess I did do something this holiday LOL.

Anyway we're all back to school tomorrow so best get things ready or we'll be late in the morning!

 

[Less Rotund One]

That sounds like a good plan - at least that way you can stay somewhat in control without doing any damage.

You have a lot on your plate with work, house and studying - not surprised you are starting to feel fazed by it.

Hope tomorrow turns out well for you and your 26pts is enough to keep you on track. xx

 

[omnomnom]

Good luck with the new plan Jax The extra 6 points should help a lot.

 

[*Saski*]

Good luck with your restart Jax!! You've done so well so far. I'm hoping i can do as well. Take care. xxx

 

[carefulcounter]

I'm glad you had a lovely weekend and your plan to up to maintenance cals sounds really good - so much better to maintain consciously than to overeat and gain. Take care x

 

[Jax123]

Thanks so much girls but am sad to say that plan did not go well again. Had a good bfast (4 pts) and lunch (4 pts) and mid morning snack (1) and a reasonable dinner planned (9). Decided with my extra points I'd make a WW pudding receipe I've had ages and not made - lemon lush - basically a lemon cheesecake. It started to go wrong the minute I started crushing the reduced fat biscuits - two for crushing - one in my mouth By the time I'd had 4 biscuits - prob bout 6 points - I'd lost the plot and it all went from bad to worse. Ended up eating about half the lemon lush myself with OH and darling daughters sharing the other half. What can I say ??? but it did live up to its name - it was absolutely lush

Restart yet again planned for tomorrow - at least I havent got any leftover lemon lush left - blimey talk about alliteration; must remember that example next time I'm racking my brains for an example in class!

Going to start posting my planned meals the night before - in the desperate hope this will shame me into sticking to them and nothing else!

Bfast
50g multigrain hoops (3)
Skimmed milk (1)

Lunch
Soup (1)
Bread roll (2)
Yoghurt (0.5)

Dinner
Spag Bol (6)
Cous cous (2.5)
Free Veg (0)

Total 16 - Leaves 4 pts spare (plus the 6 extra should I feel the need).

Am seriously thinking of giving up on my OU course - if only to take the pressure off of myself as I think this is the main reason for the back to bingeing approach I seem to have adopted :cry:

Anyways am going to bed for an early night before I cram anything else into my mouth!
