Jo's Juddd diary 2012

Ooooh so excited I forgot to say that my Bissel super dooper carpet cleaner is arriving today, can't wait, just had an email to say its in the Van on its way woohoo, can't wait to have fresh clean carpets again, 5 kids and 2 mucky dogs = dirty carpets. Think I will need to buy some more formula though as I think it only comes with 1 bottle, I have 6 rooms and hall stairs and landing to do so will def need more, anyone know if it has to be Bissel or can I use any one as long as its for carpet washers???

I suspect that carpet shampoo is carpet shampoo. I have Bissel and have had it for years -- and use whatever in mine. It still works pretty well -- but I keep thinking I want one that steams.
 
Thanks Mel thats what I thought ;) I have a steamer one I use in the Kitchen but although it can be used on carpets it makes no impact on mine? Great for the hard floors though, kitchen bathroom, hallway, quick and dry floors practically straight away :)

I have a kitchen floor steam mop -- but once I've steamed the floors I use a mop with those disposable wipes to go over it. I think the steam mop cloth does not pick up the dirt as much as loosen it -- you should see how much is picked up by the wipes. (A swifter mop)

I also bought a steamer thing to use on my cabinets and bathrooms, etc. But I've not use it yet. I think it'll make a big mess cleaning, so it'll be a huge project.

Aren't we saddos! All excited about cleaning equipment!
 
Hi Jo - great news that the clothes are getting looser!

Disneyland sounds great - I went a couple of times with my son when he was younger and loved it. Great price too,
 
this is me just now, had a sneaky weigh in and it has just knocked my confidence. I am due to weigh on sunday but I am night shift on sunday night and my weight isnt normal after a night shift. Can only do what I cann do and I have given myself two weeks on this anyway to see any trend. the thing is i wish i had measured because i am sure i have lost inches and toned up but unfortuantely i did not even weigh when i started the diet at a size 22/24 and at every point i kept thinking, no point now i have lost the majority of it! anyway rambling, just a bit but off after a gain of 3.5 lbs despit running and good down days...
 
Hey timetogo. I'm on nights this weekend as well when I'm weighing in, I'm just going to weigh when I wake up after my sleep tomoro

17 lost : 50 to goal

yeah, i might do this. going to make soup to take with me. will have that in early hours of morning n then hopefully get 12 hours between eating n weighing... need to look at the bigger picture just now though.... good luck to you. what is it u do? x
 
Don't be disheartened the gains can be a bit scary but at the end of a week you should see a downward trend. I would say your nights are affecting your weight, I know when I used to work nights it played havoc with my weight, also how are you working out your days 12- 12 ? it must be quite confusing, just stick with it and see what your official says, I really think its the shifts that are causing the problem ? x
 
Well an excellent DD with regards to intake for me, Had another phone call from the school at lunchtime, my youngest DS had fallen aslepp in first aid after complaining of feling unwell, woke OH to go and pick him up with me as I don't drive didn't think he would be up to walking back up the hill, anyway he was asleep and looked very pale but insisted he felt better after his sleep, I was on my way out to town when the school rang so we popped into town literally for 5 mins for me to run in and get some postage boxes I needed, by the time I had got back to the car the poor lamb had vomited everywhere!!! OH has cleaned up the mess but will give the upholstery a going over with my new Bissell tomorrow;) Poor love hasn't vomited since but has slept most of the afternoon, anyway the time has just flown today and before I knew it , it was 6 o clock and I hadn't eaten, not hungry so not going to bother now, so total cals for today is
Milk allowance 100 cals
Total cals for today 100 cals :D

Off to catch up on some diaries now x
 
Poor baby, poor mummy - yay Bissel

aw poor little one! that awful. best thing is to just sleep it off. hopefully it will pass quick, but then u find they do recover quickly! well done on a successful down day x

tbh, i havent been managing my shifts very well. eating wise. i wud have my dinner, go to bed b up with the kids all day n go to work, waiting till after midnght till i ate again n when i thought about it, it meant my down day was lasting 27/28 hours. so, when i am working, i will do my down days from my dinner till the same time the next night and have a bowl of soup n maybe another bowl about 3ish. i am absolutely binging when i can eat again when i am doing nights as i am starving come midnight and using a ridiculous amount of calories.
 
Official weigh in today and I have lost 1lb:D really pleased with that as the way the scales were going this week thought it was going to be a STS, which would have been fine anything other than a gain is fine by me. Little one is better now too thanks x
Busy day for me today, 2 kids parties at the same time in different places, luckily one is a house party and the other is a beauty salon party both of which are drop off and pick up. Need to do an order of 40 Choc lollies which need to be sent off Mon so need to get started on them and more carpet cleaning I suspect! Did one lounge carpet yesterday which I am really pleased with and is only ever so slightly damp this morning Other lounge tonight then stairs and bedrooms tomorrow, can't wait for them all to be clean. I was mortified by the colour of the water I was tipping away yesterday :eek:
Anyway UP weekend so thats good, Tea cakes for brekkie later and I can't wait, have a fab day all will catch up later x

Timetogo I work mon-fri in the community with children with disabilities. I sometimes help out in our respite unit if it's short staffed too, which is what I'm doing this wknd.

Regards my eating, I generally only do fri nights, unusual for me to do a sat never mind two on the trot but needs must.

Fridays are my DD's, so I stick to my limit from waking on Friday morning until I get home on sat morning. Then I eat my UD's from getting home on sat until bedtime sat night.

Busy busy bee bajoleth, will be thinking about you as I :4635:

18 lost : 49 to goal
 
Thanks :rolleyes: Enjoy your sleep x
