Jess's Diary - Weighed in a day early..

I've got the weepies. I keep crying all the time. I had a presentation today and was up all last night finishing another assignment. I was really stressed this morning as I'm usually awful at presentations, I can't talk properly from nerves. Anyway, someone gave me some valium! Awesome stuff, my presentation went really well. Finished off an assignment, had 40 minutes at home before my driving lesson. Driving makes me so stressed, it's hard and I hate it! Had 2 hours of doing roundabouts. So now my eyes are like a dripping tap, won't stop!

I'm not pointing properly yet, easing back into it. I've lost about a pound already though now I've stopped scoffing :p Yesterday I had a college trip which involved a nice long beach walk. I got sun/wind burnt though, ouch. Anyway I had a slimfast (3.5) for breakfast and 6 mini sausages (3) for a snack. We had a lunch at a pub and I went for a bacon and brie baguette.. not the best choice I know but I didn't have chips! I never get sandwiches or anything without chips! No idea as to the points, I guess 10 maybe. For dinner had a kebab (10). So over, but not really over maintanence and had a walk.

I think I'm going to continue watching what I eat until my shop comes in and start pointing properly. Didn't do too well today, had 4 biscuits for breakfast, a slimfast for lunch and then I didn't want my stomach to rumble while driving so had a multipack of doritos and a mini pack of butterkist popcorn. Having a subway for dinner. Can't wait for my cupboards to be stocked up again, so much easier! :)

Have a college BBQ tomorrow as we're nearly finished. It's a 2 year foundation degree and only a few are going on to do the top-up so I probably won't see some people ever again after June. We're having the BBQ then bat watching. Fun :) No control over what I can eat really.. I'm taking a pasta salad so will make that healthy, just have one burger and side stuff.

Ok, deadline of Saturday for correct pointing at the latest! Probably Friday though.

Weight on the scales yesterday: 12 stone 7lb. 1lb off what I started in September :( Will do a weigh in on Monday to get back into it.

Don't worry Jess. You're stressed at the moment with deadlines at college at the moment so you can't be focussed on everything. Think positively, with summer coming and a new start :) Everyone has tough times when they feel emotional, try making sure you get plenty of sleep and eat well. Then you'll be in the right frame of mind to get back on track. Really you feel more yourself very soon x
 
Yep, I'm weighing what I did when I started in about September :eek:

But we can do it this time :D honest :p

Weighed 12 stone 4.4 this morning so I've got rid of 3lb already since Tuesday without even pointing :) Barely eaten anything today (bare cupboards) so going to have some chippy chips and chocolate tonight, then start pointing tomorrow!

Surprised at how much has come off, it's been 1lb a day. Yesterday I ate a chocolate bar, packet of cheese and onion crisps, a mayo/bacon pasta (picked up a big packet, changed for a small though) with 2 cheese burgers for dinner with a bit of potato salad, some of my yummy pasta salad (went down well :D) which had quite a lot of oil in.. plus a load of chocolate fingers. Did go on a walk while bat watching but just shows how much I'd been eaten to lose whilst eating that.
 
oooooooh bat watching! :D i see quite a few round the fields of Kibby when I walk Becky.. they're fascinating!
 
When I was reading that, I thought the list was finished after the cheeseburgers, hahaha.

Cmon Jess, you can do this! :)
You better be pointing tomorrow :p haha.

xx
 
bat scare me a lot!! Hope youre back to 100% soon! :D
 
I have a car :D Yaaaay. I bought it this evening. It's a "moonshine silver" Ford KA. It's a weird colour because it used to be gold but had a colour change to silver.. love it! It's the colour of a ghost and my registration plate is P-Key.. Called it Boo. P-key Boo :p NOT PIKEY! :rolleyes:

Anyway, it only cost £595! It's done 63,000 miles and is a 97 model. It's "tappety" which is a problem with old KAs. It's not problem, just an annoying noise so I may get it realigned for about £35.

I'm so happy :D I've had 14 hours of lessons now so I feel ready to go out with Adam.
 
Great for your sneaky peek losses last week - hope its still off!

Lovely to get your first car! I still remember mine - a little white mini with blue "go-faster" stripes.....it was wicked - and cost me £1100 back then (from my sister...reckon I was fleeced) ;)
 
aww an ickle car! :D can just see you tootling around in it :) my first was a Renault 5 (model before a clio) in white, and she was called Daisy. She had a manual choke, so i had to pull a lever to change the amount of petrol that was going in at any given time :) ..13 flat tyres in a year... good times :)

how's the pointing coming? x

Wow, that sounds like an ancient car! I hope I don't have too many problems with Boo. I am going to drive her to college on Sunday.. I have to go through mega traffic lights and traffic which I haven't done yet, but I'm just gonna do it! Worst that is likely to happen is I get flustered, stall and hold people up I think!

Thank you :) Not yet.. I will definately be ok once I'm working full time over the summer, but I hope I can get back to it before then. Will attempt again tomorrow! There was a bakery run. I can't say no to pastry. Plus someone bought in a chocolate cake :p

Hah, that's awesome!
 
Great news about the car, sounds lovely. I think KAs are ideal first cars, nice little ones with lower insurance. Am about to start looking for first one for middle son, but KAs tend to be girlie cars I think. Insurance is massive for him though, even third party. Hope you have lovely time driving round in your new car. Hope Adam is a patient passenger! x

Yeah, young boys have crazy insurance. Adam's first one was £1,800 on his Grandad's, third party!

How much did you pay for insurance out of interest, Jess?

I haven't done it yet, I'll let you know though. I think it's about £1000 on my own and £450 on Adam's. Think I'll do it tonight.
