Jo's Juddd diary 2012

I love Disney. Check the prices on staying in the Davy Crockett Village (it's a caravan park but they are supposed to be cabins). You get special access to a character breakfast and they have a good indoor water area if I remember correctly.
 
Glad she's feeling better :) great news on Disneyland bet she's super excited!! Xxx

We always stayed in Davy Crocket when we went with my parents as my Dad used to drive up from the Dordogne where they lived, you have to have a car to stay there, my OH won't drive over in France so we are flying or going by Eurostar, undecided which yet? The apartment which in just outside the Disney village so actually closer than Davy Crocket, works out cheaper than any of the hotels as there are so many of us, my BIL is coming too (he is a big kid himself) so 3 adults and 4 children my eldest will be in college so doesn't want to come. To do our own package i.e acommadation, tickets its cheaper even when you take into Disneys free children offer, we are staying 7 nights self catering, 4 day park tickets for all 7 of us comes to just £1200, Eurostar/flights yet to be worked out as prices aren't available yet.
 
Morning ladies :D a bit grey and miserable here today, but have had 3 gorgeous days so I won't complain. UP day for me today, getting a bit annoyed with my TOTM which was due 2 weeks ago, I think its going to happen then it doesn't, Its either dead on time or a few weeks late lately, must be my bloomin age, don't think its having any affect on my weight though so thats a plus. No actual plans today apart from the School run this morning, I have been quite busy this week so might chill out a little bit today, well as much as is possible with a very bossy 19th old !!! Hope you all have a good day x

Morning,

I was going to go to aquafit this morning but don't want to go out in the rain! Lol (The class his morning is pretty far away - so it is a long drive at rush hour on wet roads.). I will make myself do something here.

You'll get your work out chasing the little one, I imagine.

Ooooh I would give Aquafit a miss, I am sure there is something you can do that doesn't involve a stressful journey ;) I have to say I admire you active girlies, I can't do most exercise because of joint problems but I used to love to swim when I was slimmer that is, maybe when the little un goes to Nursery I will find the time and the inclination to go again x

Do you take glucosamine? It really does help. I started taking it after I broke my wrist, and then realized that my left knee (I injured in a step class over three years ago) was much better! I had always heard it was good for joints and it is.
 
Have a lovely chill day hun xxx

Yes I do Mel, but it doesn't make a lot of difference, not really sure whats going on, its not just pain but weakess, started in my pelvis after I had my DD 7 yrs ago but now its everywhere really, most annoyingly my wrists which can give way sometimes, waiting for an MRI so hopefully will get some answers?? My Mum swears by Glucosamine and she even gives it to her dog who has Hip Dysplasia and she is better for it too, so def a good recommendation for anyone with joint problems and hasn't tried it, thanks Mel x
 
Thanks Stef, I will try but i do get guilty when I am not actually doing anything, kep telling myself to enjoy it as it doesn't happen very often x
 
Hope you're ok Jo!
Disneyland sounds wonderful!
I'm glad your daughter is better and I hope you have a lovely day!

Thanks Ruth x
After reading some of the diaries I know some new starters are a bit concerned about gains, the nature of the diet means there will be temp ups but the trend will be down (most weeks anyway x) there will obviously be sts weeks but they occur in every diet, if you have stuck to your DD allowance you shouldn't experience an overall gain.
My last weeks weigh ins,
sat - 12 13 official weigh in after DD sts from previous weekly weigh in
Sun - 13 01 after UP gain of 2lbs
Mon - 13 04 after UP gain of 3lbs
tues - 12 13 after DD loss of 5lbs !!
wed - 13 after UP gain of 1lbs
thurs - 12 10 after DD loss of 4lbs
fri - 12 12 after UP gain of 2lbs
Sat - 12 10 after DD loss of 2lbs last sat 12 13 so weekly official loss of 3lbs

This week
Sat - 12 10lbs official weight
Sun - 13 after UP gain of 4lbs
Mon - 13 after UP STS
Tues -12 10 after DD loss 4lbs
Wed - 12 11 after UP gain of 1lb
Thurs- 12 09 after DD loss of 2lbs
Fri -
Sat -

So you can see there are gains but the trend is def downwards , hopefully I will see a 1lb loss this week after an up today then a DD before official weigh in, I have to state though that even when the scales say I have gained I never feel it yet I do when I have lost, hope this helps anyone who is worried about the gains they may be seeing during the week x
 
Had quite an Up Up day today, not completely sure why. lots of picking I think anyway think I am at about 2500, looking forward to my last DD of the week, really hoping that it works its magic and I lose what I have probably gained today.
 
Thanks ;)
 
Good luck Nat!
 
Morning all, DD for me today, Its raining again :mad: After this mornings weigh in think I am looking at best a STS this week , which I will be happy with as I have some serious NSV
In May last yr my sister got married and on her wedding day I was 11 10lbs (a stone lighter than I am now) however when I was having a sort through yesterday I decided to try on the dress I wore , it is a fitted dress so no room for excess belly etc and I couldn'r believe it when I actually got it on, there were some lumps and bumps and don't think I would be comfortable to actually wear it unless I lost a few more lbs but it was passable and fitted, isn't that bizarre I think when I get to 11 10 again the dress will be to roomy, isn't weight a funny old thing eh ?? Also I bought a pair of size 14 shorts for the beach a couple of weeks ago, when I bought them I struggled a bit to get them on and they were like a second skin, def wouldn't have worn them, they fir perfectly now and I would happily wear them if we ever get beach weather again !!!
So if I get a sts this week I am still a very happy girl :D Have a great day everyone xx
 
Wow. All those changes from the fitness? Fab endorsement. I hope you have a good Friday.
 
Wow that's great Jo well done!!!

I hope you have a really lovely day :)

Thanks both :) Well the reason I kept picking at food I wasn't really hungry for yesterday which resulted in a very UP up day was my TOTM finally arrived this morning, I had given it up for lost this month lol. That may explain a bit of this mornings gain too, so still a happy :bunnydance: today !

This week
Sat - 12 10lbs official weight
Sun - 13 after UP gain of 4lbs
Mon - 13 after UP STS
Tues -12 10 after DD loss 4lbs
Wed - 12 11 after UP gain of 1lb
Thurs- 12 09 after DD loss of 2lbs
Fri - 12 12 after UP gain of 3lbs !! TOTM finally arrived
Sat -

Going to have a good DD today and try to drink plenty to try and shift a couple of those pounds before official weigh in tomorrow !
