Lose weight to gain a bikini bod! (May 2014)

[ellejay1984]

Yeah I'm fine thanks, yeah drs at 5:10 tonight, just got a bit upset cos Jamie's family were basically telling me I don't want kids yet bla bla bla but then Jamie said something to me and I just got the hump and it caused a huge argument cos I'm stressing about what's going to happen. Not even sure if he's talking to me tbh! X

HI hun xx
That's a crappy thing to hv happened Shan, and on a day u were at a funeral?! You've got every right to b stressed, as a woman we're brought up to believe we hv the ability to hv kids whenever we want, for something to happen and question that, more than once for u, it's a blooming stressful & emotional time. I really hope Jamie is there for u this evening, if u can put ur differences aside even just 4 the appointment, it's something I think u need to approach together, as a couple x
You know where we r if/when u need us hun xLx

Thanks bubble, I shouldn't have to though! Out if everyone he's supposed to be the one to be there for me, and let me be there for him, but he shuts down then just explodes and makes everything out to be my fault. I know it's hard for him but if he's not telling me how am I supposed to know?!
I'm sure he will, that's if he can leave work early, I hope he can because I'm probably not going to be able to take it all in! Xx

Hi Hun
Yeah it all kicked off at the funeral, Jamie's best mate and his brother had a fight. It wasn't the best of days for anyone really, especially the ladies son, it's not how he wanted to remember his mum.

I spoke to him briefly on the phone, he called me babe and said love you so he seems to be ok ATM. Like I said to bubble, just hope he can leave work early to be there with me.

It is a horrible feeling, you always think "it will never happen to me". Just shows that it does! Xxx

I'm on this IG thing like mad lately, anyone have it? I love it! Decided to take part in this transformation Tuesday malarkey and I'm so shocked at the differences. It's funny but when you see yourself you don't really notice a huge difference, but looking back a pictures just motivates me even more



(The difference in my cheeks)



10st 3lb in the first two and 9st in the second two (on holiday)

Thanks lis.
I won't, not now anyway, I'm only 5lb away from my target then I will decide if I want to stay there or lose a little more, might sound drastic but I'm only 5ft so I'd still be within a healthy bmi bracket.

He didn't, and I'm not happy. I knew he wouldn't. I think he's scared. But I told him they won't test him until they can't find anything with me. It's upset me actually cos he knows how much it's stressing me out and I would have thought he'd try and be here.

I'm waiting to go in, will let you know what he says. Thank you so much for being here! Mwah! Xx

 

[ellejay1984]

Seriously hun, you could've been forgiven for just turning ur bk on what you've achieved and hit the junk, hard! But you've stuck at it & continued to lose, ur an example to us all who use food as an excuse to help when we're feeling crap xx

I don't know what to say about Jamie hun, I think honestly that any woman in ur shoes needs her man there 110% and he should've done everything to get off work. I hope when u c him tonight that he's groveling!
Hope all goes well, let us know. If ur anything like me, I forget what docs hv said within 5 mins, so writing it down will prob help when discussing with Jamie later?

Evening ladies

So the dr said he doesn't understand why it's happening so is referring me to st Mary's hospital in London for tests. Apparently they specialise in recurrent miscarriage. I'll be getting a letter with an appointment date in the post. Just hope it comes sooner rather than later, but at least I'm one step closer to getting some answers, hopefully!

Just had a carb overload!!! I think this is why I steer clear of green days, I get far too greedy! Lol. I've gone over my calorie allowance too but I'm not bothered as I had to WI today instead of tomorrow. And it was worth every mouthful!

Going to make meatballs tomorrow so will be having more pasta, will use it a HEx B though so I weigh it out.

Thank you all so much for support, I really do appreciate it! Isn't it weird that I feel more comfortable sharing things with you lot rather than my friends and family bck here? I honestly don't know where I'd be without your support and I love you all! (Soppy bollox) lol

It went ok, I guess it was what I was expecting really, but it made me think if the dr can't understand why it's happening surely there is really something wrong? But at least it's a start...

Oh believe you me I let rip at him!
He won't be doing it again when I have to go to the hospital cos I've told him if he don't make an effort to come I won't make an effort in putting up with him and I'll be gone before he gets home from work! Hopefully he understands how serious it is now!

Thank you Hun, really means a lot xxx

 

[pippalata]

Glad to hear you've got an appointment. I really hope you get the answers you need soon. Have you chatted to Jamie about it? How far from london do you live?

Food looks great. You're still on plan so don't give yourself too much of a hard time.

Thank you Hun, must admit I've thought about it many times but I did it last year after my first mc, I'd lost 12lb, had the mc and put 13lb back on within about 2 months, maybe less. I don't want to have to start all over again, I feel better In myself, I'm getting compliments off people now, I have more energy and tbh it might sound silly but when I was bigger I didn't get pregnant until I'd lost weight, then 6 weeks later I was pregnant again, whether it makes a difference or was just a coincidence I don't know.

That's what I said, I can deal with stuff on my own, I always kept things bottled up but this is a shared problem and it affects both of us, it's our future at the end of the day. Maybe I'm being harsh, maybe he's scared and don't want to face it, he needs to grow some balls cos it'll only get worse if we put it off any longer.

I have a memory like a siv (dunno how to spell it) xxx

Hope you're doing ok mate. Such a shame he couldn't be there, I hope it all goes well and the doctor is helpful tonight x

Thanks pip. Went as well as could be expected x x

Cheers mate. Yeah had words lol.
I live in kent if you've heard of it? Just had a look and it would take an hr to drive there and 1hr33mins on buses, train and tube.
You live near London? X

 

[pippalata]

No, I live on the Isle of Wight. My good friend had 2 sleeping babies and 2 miscarriages though and was referred to a specialist hospital in london so I guess it could be the same one. She now has 2 healthy beautiful babies in her life and couldn't be happier. You will get your turn soon as well x
