Lou's Diary - onwards and inwards!

Hi hun, hopefully I'll be ok BUT... my parents just called round and have said they're cooking roast beef for tea and do I want to go over........ My mum makes the best roast beef in the world and I know I won't be able to eat it without a yorkshire and gravy... what should I do? Go or stay at home?

Here is today's diary.. will decide what day I'm on when I know what I'm doing about tea.

B: Apple and a pear
L: Poached eggs on toast (B)
D: ??? if it's roast beef i'll be on a green day so i can have lots of mash, if i don't go i'll cook beef stew at home which will be free on a red day???
 
Go and just syn it up. Is it homemade yorkshire? I wouldn't know the syns but if its the frozen ickle ones they are usually 3 syns and bisto gravy is 1/2 per tsp i think so you could take your own gravy if she is making homemade stuff?

Go have dinner with the 'rents and enjoy! xx

Tuesday.... was up early and can't face going to the gym as I'm exhausted, I'm also - not going to WI tonight.... don't shout at me.... At the moment I'm looking at a STS or gain, so I'm going to go tomorrow night instead as I don't think I can take a "knock" at the moment.... I'm a wimp I know.

Hi Lou, well done on all the exercise :)
If missing a WI was what you needed to do, then don't worry about it. Just make sure 1 week missed doesn't turn into 2...;)

I won't hun, I've been there before and never went back. I'm 100% carrying on, just couldn't face the gain written down in front of me, to be fair - I think it was a STS rather than gain. But onwards and downwards x

Hi diary, just got home from friend's house warming party, feel really lonely and down, I miss my ex so much.

Hate being fat and ugly, I just can't talk to people, I wish I had more confidence, I was sat next to my friend on the sofa, as soon as I got up a bloke nicked my place and started chatting her up, it was as if he thought - yay, fatty has gone I'm gonna make a move.... I only knew her and the host so it was quite difficult A - trying to find somewhere else to sit, B - trying to talk to strangers and C - combining it all with me being sober and everyone else drunk.

I just wanted to go home to my boyfriend, nothing else mattered when I was with him, we'd close the curtains and snuggle up together, but now that is all a lie too, as I wasn't enough for him and he cheated on me.

I feel like my heart is in a thousand pieces, sometimes I kid myself that I can go this alone and be strong, I know I deserve more than my scum bag of an ex, but until I found out, I loved him and he was my best friend too.

I've lost him but I also need to come to terms with the fact he cheated on me and our relationship was lies, I don't know how I'm meant to be able to trust anyone else again.
 
Hey - thought Id pop on and catch up and have come across you and your sad post.

Yes, he cheated on you and some lies were told, but honestly hun that doesn't make your whole relatioship a lie - it makes M a bit of an a**e, but thats it!
It doesn't mean that you wont find anyone else, neither does it mean that you and him wont get back together, cos if thats what you both want (in time) then thats a possibilty. That said, it doesn't mean you shoudl get back with him cos you're feeling down about yourself. Even if you were to meet someone say tomorrow it doesn't mean that everything else will feel OK. You can do it by yourself (for now) you just think that you cant. You're not fat and ugly and deep down you know that. You're feeling crappy about yourself, but hey everyone does at some point.You are making positive changes and going shopping and buying new smaller clothes shows have far you have come already, and you are motivated enough to keep losing weight and that will help you feel more confident about yourself.

Chin up love xxx
