Kay's journey to health and happiness

[Kay003]

Could it be the fact that your op has been postponed twice now that is messing with your head - you will be better once that gets sorted out for you. In the meantime just go back to basics - you know the plan and have done so Well and are nearly there.

Thanks Carol for thinking of me . Yep your right, Sheila pointed it out to me yesterday, I think she's right, its made me lose my focus, but I will have to get over it and keep on trying. Let's see what this week brings. Hope your well hun xx

Hey Kay,

I'm sorry about the gain lovely. I hope drawing a line under things tomorrow helps you get back on track. I think sometimes its nice to start a new fresh week and work on it from there. Oh and how I wish chocolate and Ben n Jerrys were part of SW, lol!

Hope you're not feeling too down, I know how much you want this weight loss. I think all this waiting around and rescheduling things is putting you in a bit of a bad place. I've got my fingers crossed for you that your op stays the same now, will be loads better for you when its all over and you can see yourself getting your life back to normal again. *big hugs* xxxx

Good afternoon lovely bunny. Don't worry about your 3lb gain, you will soon get that off. Worry if you're like me and manage to have an 8lb gain in one weekend!! Hehe. Oops. xxxx

Hi Kirsty , hope your well hun. I can't keep letting myself off like this, I will end up back at 16 stone + where I started , have to get some discipline back into my routine. We'll get there eventually ! Hope your having a fab week hun xx

Evening hun , I'm late posting today, not that I was going to post foodage on an off plan day, you'd all be horrified . Hope to get back on the SW wagon this week. Thanks for the chat last night really helped me clear my head . Will pop over to your diary in a mo for a catch up, hope you had a lovely day xx

Thanks Bev , that's exactly it, these last 2 months have not been great since the hospital has been messing around with my op dates. It's like I build myself up only to be thrown to the bottom of the list again, its horrible . Anyway I did a lot of thinking last night and I know burying my sorrows into food is not the solution. I need to continue with my journey. I kind of have to almost tell myself that the op is not happening so that next month if they push me down the list again, I don't stall on the plan and get disappointed. It's hard not to, but I will have to prepare myself now for a further let down. For all I know they can keep me hanging on till August . The only thing I have control over, like Sheila said, is my present. I can change today a day at a time and eventually a whole month will pass and I will keep losing more , mini goals is the way forward for me. I must pop over to your diary for a good catch up, sorry I am a bit behind hun. But I am so happy for your loss this week after your hols, that's just fab. I know your all energised to lose more and I know u will do brill going forward ! xx

Awww thats a lovely thing to say hunni thank you. I just like to give the support back that I get from my minis friends when im struggling xx

 

[Kay003]

Good Evening everyone , hope I've managed to catch up on everyone's posts.

So most of u must know now that my scales are showing a 3lb gain for tomorrow. Was expecting it after the off plan weekend I have had. I have had a chance to do some thinking and I have decided for the next week I want to do my salad challenge again, the weather is ideal for it . I need to go and do a food shop tomorrow so will start from Wednesday. Tomorrow after weigh in, I will just have a normal SW day. I hope to lose my gain by next week and then I will have 3 weeks left to my op. I am going to challenge myself to get my next award by then for 4.5 stones. Let's see if I can manage that, I will give it my best shot ! xx

Yeah but you always say the right thing at the right time. Quality xx

 

[littlemissnaughty]

Good evening Kay,
I hope the scales aren't too horrible to you tomorrow but if they are I'm sure with your salads for a week you will shift any gain and maybe more
It's good to see you're drawing a line under your naughty weekend, I've drawn one under mine as well!xx

Evening Helen , how are you hun ? Yep I'm really going to go for it now, I've been messing around these last few weeks, really need to get my head back in the game. I like the challenges because it gives me something to focus on in the week. How's your detox week going with the family ? xx

I think you're in a great state of mind hun. Its such a crappy situation not having that control of your own destiny, so in a way preparing yourself for a let down is the best thing you can do. At least then if it goes ahead you'll be over the moon, rather than gutted if it doesn't. Taking each day as it comes is the best thing, focus on your mini goals, enjoying yummy healthy food and making the best of the free time you won't have when you're back at work and stuff. Of course you're going to lose more, you're going to do great, I think facing things at group and drawing that line will help. Maybe try a week of going back to basics maybe, re-read your book and fall in love with SW again. Sometimes I find that helps when I'm struggling a bit, it gets me all re-engergised about the plan again

Thanks hun for your support, I'm so motivated lately. I think having the wedding looming helps. I know I've got 14 months still but I've still got the same to lose again and it seems kinda daunting. This second half of the journey has got to be tougher as it'll be much harder to lose it as quickly, surely? I'm stressing that I'll still be fat for my wedding, I know if I keep doing what I'm doing I shouldn't be, but it really does scare me as I don't want to feel fat on the best day of my life. Anyway sorry for burdening you with my stresses! Hope you've enjoyed your off plan food today and you feel ready to get back to Sw tomorrow xxxx

[littlemissnaughty]

I'm good thanks Kay,
I had a bit of a bad weekend and managed to gain 1lb but I'm sure I'll lose that again quickly.
Detox is going great so far. Today has been really easy but I've been so hungover that I've not wanted food!
I'm off to bed now, hopefully I'll get a good nights sleep and wake up feeling loads better in the morning. Night hun.xx

Thanks hun, I really hope so. It's crazy how you class me like Von and Emma, I see those 2 and think they are complete superwomen! So sweet of you to say I inspire you, I feel the same about you. I've not looked back since that soup challenge, I drink soooo much more water now and have soup at least twice a week whereas I never did before. Looking forward to doing the salad challenge in the summer too!

Enjoy your diary catch up tomorrow, I'm still so behind with everyone's after hols, feel like I'm neglecting peeps!
