Welcome back Minks
Congratulations on getting engaged
Hope to see more of you on here now x
Thank you Mrs, I will be back on here - just not ALLLL day every day. I have decided that I need 1 hour a day for me time on an evening and this will come into that hour. Hope all is well with the family and pooch! I will be doing a diary whizz round tonight so hope to catch up then xxx
Hey Fran, thanks, I am happy actually. I can still get stressed as hell and want to punch people in the back of their heads but defo happier! I'm not a Buddha just yetWoohoo. Lovely to see you and you seem so happy. Glad to see you've got more balance and life in your life. So jealous of all your trips.
look forward to catching up and hope the little rascal is keeping you on your toes! xxAaaaaaaaghhhh! So good to hear off you and really hope you are going to be around more!
Fab to hear all your exciting news!!! Congratulations!
Can remember all the pressure you were under at the and am glad to hear you took your foot off the gas a bit! How did the c take it?
I'm still in a similar place weight wise and trying to get to my target again for my big bday which is bigger than yours lol I am trying to go back to group but struggling around my new job/hours. Can't think of much else at the mo xxx
You little missy, pushed my button at the right time this week and I knew it was time to make time to come back to you all, so thank you hun xxx
My C... she moved towns and that was a pain so I just said I will see how things go and chickened out of telling her I wouldn't come back - she hasn't contacted me this year so clearly doesn't give a rats and it was only about figures / filling seats. Which at the time I felt a bit taken aback about... but then kicked myself into remembering she is running a business so why should she? I think she knew I was done.
Well done for maintaining sweetie, no doubt you will get to target for your birthday with some focus! When is it? How exciting!! xxx
Thank you hun, Lovely to see you all here and cant wait to catch up on everything. Hope you are ok? xxx
Hey sweetie! Thank you
How are things over your side? Hope all is good and will take a dive over to your diary later tonight xxxAlright Sheila! (said in my best Australian accent!) First - thank you! And second - CONGRATULATIONS right back at ya!! 4lbs from target, Nanna in September AND progress on your back? Awesome!!! (Although boo to there still being a problem, at least lets hope the MRI goes well).
Sounds like you are doing really well and I look forward to catching up xxx

Quickie post (jeez i'm up to 3 posts and its not even 9am....!)
Just wanted to wish you all a happy Friday, hope that the sun is super shining where you are - it is here! - and you have a fab day!
Food plans are for a green one. I did post my daily plan on IG but that's changed already!!
Breakfast - Mushroom and Cheddar Omelette (A Choice)
Mid AM - Blueberries, Raspberries and Danio Strawberry yogurt 1 syn
Lunch - Was planning jacket, beans, cheese and salad... but I am not so sure right now... (Might just have all my fruit and a mug shot / sushi... depending on dinner choice, so I have 3 hours to decide)
Dinner - Leftover veg curry and rice... again this may change, I might leave that for the boy to have instead. because I am nice like that. So it might be pasta instead with veggies and cheese. Which would mean no cheese on jacket at lunch and what's the point in a jacket if you can't have cheese?!
Snacks - banana, grapes, apple, pineapple finger, alpen light and Weetabix oaty rainbow smashems bar, Mikado white and WW Caramel Mallow. If I need. Which I will.
And that's that!
Have a fab one y'all xxxxx

Aww you are good to that fella of yours. I get what you mean about having the pressure all on you and ultimately it doesn't matter if you are there or not.
Nate is keeping me on my toes. We're on our 4th attempt at potty training and it seems to be taking this time. He's 3 on Monday.

I have no idea what the heck happened there!! My phone has a life of it's own sometimes!! I can confirm that they were NOT in fact scan bran cakes and are actually very calorific, non-SW friendly, sugar-ful coffee and walnut cupcakes which I made for people in work today.
One may or may not slip into my mouth... I cannot be sure! xx
I always get food envy of your omelette snaps on IG! You make a bloody good omelette! x

Target? Bring it on!

Hey there Minks, welcome back. Everyone has missed you so.
I totally don't blame you from walking away from SW / Minis, I think sometimes the diet gets put so much on the pedestal by you and others, that it becomes a pressure and a stress. You were putting a lot of pressure to get where you needed to be, and that's no b!oody fun is it!? I see other people's diaries are "almost" there and they are pressuring themselves too, and lowering their original targets a bit more, then a bit more - we are never happy with ourselves are we?
Congrats on the proposal, thats so lovely - the boy did good, and what your lovely mummy said about the ring, brought a little lump in my throat!
Me? Well I am pretty much in the same sitch as before, I am not an SWer, more Healthy Eating and more recently (like two days a go) I thought I would give CCing a go - in for a penny..
Come and visit my diary once you get settled back in - its a feast for the eyes! Its not, but it'd be nice if you did visit!
It is lovely to hear you are happy with yourself once more. There is much more to life than getting to target and I am glad you are in a good and healthy place both physically and mentally.

Hey Minks lovely to see you back.
Congratulations on your engagement.
Glad you decided to take it easier with dieting. I have done the same and put on some weight. Now everyone tells me that when I was lighter, I seriously looked ill.
I'd like to lose 7-10 lbs as I do not feel comfortable with the extra weight. Today is my first day back and will be posting regularly.
I am so glad that you are back. Have a lovely day.
Lots of love xx

Oh Minks bless you I am glad to have helped...I think!
Having been in a position where I felt under pressure form a C I did worry about you. When I left my original group I felt so disheartened with my C and she didn't contact me and it pissed me off tbf even though I knew she had serious personal issues with an ill husband and I then heard he died but strangely I bumped into her in a shop the other day and I tried to pretend I hadn't seen her but she saw me and waited at the checkout for me and I am glad she did, she gave me a big hug and was lovely and we chatted for ages and it put it to rest with me.
I felt like you about the fact it was a business and I was business to her but now I think there may have been an element of that but also I had a lot going on with myself and the changes I was going through etc and maybe that was all part of it.
Hope you can get some sense out of that waffle!
My 40th is in July Whoop Whoop! x
