Jim's lazy Atkins diary

[Jim]

Morning all,

It's swings and roundabout really Gem, Jack had all his faculties and was aware every day of how crap his life was, Mum can't remember anything from 1 minute to the next but is blissfully happy most of the time.

 

[Gemstone]

My Mum, unfortunately, was not a happy bunny so that is a bit of a bonus for her (and you) but if she's not remembering anything properly that is all the more reason why she needs a program put in to safeguard her x

 

[Jim]

Morning all

we're lucky that she doesn't want to go out anymore Gem, it's a real struggle to get her to change to take her out for a meal these days

 

[Gemstone]

MIL doesn't go out anymore - she does go out in the garden and up and down the street on her scooter but that's about it x

 

[Jim]

Morning all,

I had to take my Mum's scooter away about a year ago Gem, the neighbours were telling me she was getting very dangerous on it, then I saw her one day almost tipping over coming round the corner. So that was that

I'm getting annoyed with SS, they keep promising to phone me and arrange a meeting with me at Mum's to assess her, but they don't phone.

 

[Gemstone]

Don't let it go Jim - unfortunately those who shout loudest get heard first and that's what you have to do to get what you need x

Sadly that's too true - don't wait to be given anything, even though you might completely deserve it.

Morning all,

Hey Susie, how was your holiday love?

Morning Jim x

 

[Jim]

Morning Gem, morning all

I weighed myself this morning for the first time in ages, I'm just over posted weight so using my belt as a guide is working. I'm going clean and green on induction until Christmas to give myself a few spare pounds leeway.

 

[Gemstone]

Good luck with that Jim - although you always do it when you say you will x

 

[Jim]

Morning all,

That's because Atkins suits me Gem, I couldn't do it on any other plan. Remember how I wimped out of those other diets. LOL

Here's Benjamin at 6 weeks and 22lbs

 

[Gemstone]

He's come on a treat Jim x

 

[ladyfelsham]

Oh what a sweetie Benjamin is, I love that look of utter concentration little ones do, as they figure out life around them

And well done on the pre-Christmas loss, Jim - I don't need to say good luck, because you never need it

 

[Jim]

Morning all, well i don't want to brag but I'm down 2lbs already the other thing I keep forgetting is how good I feel when i do strict Atkins induction, I just feel so fit and full of spirit.

Benjamin is a bruiser, LOL, he clonked his other grandma on the chin the other day and she says it really hurt. I like it when I hold him on my chest, when he's awake he's always trying to push himself up on his hands and knees.

 

[Gemstone]

Ouch! I know how that feels. Well done on the loss x

 

[ladyfelsham]

Well done Jim - you'll get there in no time

Do you go to the Carby Cafe as much now you're not working?

 

[Jim]

Morning all,

I had a call from SS yesterday and answered loads of questions about Mum, so finally things are beginning to happen. Not quick though are they.

I get to eat in Jenny's on the first Saturday of every month Susie, I nip down there whilst Colleen does the big monthly shop. Life's good sin't it. LOL.
