Miss Kassy Getting Sassy (Re-Start)

[Miss_Kassy]

Morning my shrinking ladies ) Have we all had a good weekend?

Cinderz - Thats frickin fantastic. My god, if ou keep that up you will lose quite a bit for ya hols, even in 2 weks and you will feel amazing. I'm even getting excited for you haha. Yip, I'm sck of this wether too, but just thnk, you will be sunning it up before you know it, you lucky bugger hehehe.

Bella - Bet you felt great and refreshed off your pamper day. I must do that more often. How good are you at ya walking man!!! You should be mega proud of yourslf. plus walking is as gud as any exercise, especially if you power walk in parts or go up hills. I cant wait till I get Sky in to watch all those programmes you are on about as I love weight loss shows, etc.

Stacey - Pleased everything went well with ya pops. He'll be home beore you know it. Ive never watched the Harry Potter films. I really should one day as everyone raves about them. Have you watched the Twilight films? I love them. Read all the books too.

Well, I hae had a bit of a calorie laden weekend. I was good friday (bar the copious amounts of alcahol - but I think I dance mosof that off in the club haha). But then Saturday I had the munchies and had about 2500 cals then Sunday I reacked up around 3000 cals. Those Big Tasty's at Maccy D's have alot to aswer for. But I'll be dead good agan today adn I was soooo good last week bar Saturday and Sunday.

I did get weighed though on Saturday when I got up and was down to 12.2. So I probaly lost quite a bit last week (just cant tell how much though asnot sure how much I put on week before). Scales going in the right direction again tho so am happy.

Gym tonight and I hope I can be as good all this week as I was alast week. Fingers crossed!

Well, I better get back to work but will spe4ak to yous soon xxx

[stacy87]

Evening ladies! Sorry for being AWOL for a wee while - I'm just trying to enjoy these few days off work as much as possible and getting things done that I've been putting off for ages! lol

Cinderz - congrats on being another 3lb down!!! That's fab!

Bella - Harry Potter was fab! Really enjoyed it! I even applauded at the end with a few others when it finished Might have to start reading the books now! Good on you for getting the stepper out - that'll really work the thighs!

Kassy - I am a twerd at heart Completely and utterly obsessed with everything Twilight! lol Cannot wait for Breaking Dawn in November! Well done on the loss too great news!

I haven't been on the scales since I first joined this thread So I may chance it and jump on them tomorrow morning - although I'm pretty sure the number will have gone up, because I haven't been eating well lately! People are telling me I look like I've lost weight but I can't see or feel it!

I'm happy to report that I visited my papa today, and he is doing much better. He was looking a lot better too, probably due to the fact that he actually got 5 hours sleep today! They'd been waking him every hour to do tests/observations etc, so he's been pretty exhausted. He's now being assessed tomorrow and hopes to be on a "normal" ward tomorrow too!

Anyhoo, I hope everyone has had a good day today xxxxx

 

[Bella30]

TWILIGHT all the way for me too!!! Corrrr, I just love that sexy vampire, but then again, I wouldn't say no to the wolf either! ;-) Absolutely cannot WAIT for breaking dawn....oooooooh, it's going to be so, so, so, so exciting!

Sounds like you had a great weekend, Kassy. How was the gym tonight? I did my walk again but my GPS was playing up so didn't get a true reading of my distance and cals. Am walking with my mum tomorrow so will do tonights route again on Wednesday and see how far I managed. It must be at least 3 miles!

Cinderz, not sure why i'm feeling bloated. Think I'm just going through a paranoid phase about my legs since I started walking more but it will pass! TOTM is a ***** though...hot water bottles always help me! Did you go swimming?

Stacy - glad you like HP. It seems to be getting really good reviews. Glad your papa is doing well too, you must be relieved.

Well I've started arranging a suprise baby shower for my brothers fiance this evening and I am SO excited! I have so many ideas, I don't know where to start! I've never been to one so don't know what you do but have been reading up on them and am so excited! lol

Hope you've all had a good day xxx

 

[stacy87]

Hehe yeah I loooooooooooove Robert Pattinson, but would take Taylor Lautner any day!

OMG how exciting arranging a baby shower! I would love to have to organise something like that! Just make it what you want it to be Bella and it will be fab! xxx

 

[Bella30]

hahaha, I know what you mean. It would be like Sophie's choice choosing between them!

I am SO excited about the baby shower, but it is making me so broody! lol Good job I don't have a boyfriend at the moment!!!!!

 

[Bella30]

Cinderz - meant to ask, what's the Dukan Diet? My sister mentioned it to me today and now I'm seeing it everywhere! lol Is it easy to follow?

 

[cinderzxx]

Dukan is a no carb/low carb diet in 4 phases, in the first (attack) phase you are only allowed certain protein, after that you can introduce certain veg on some days. Then theres some other phases to consolidate your weightloss. It sounds haaaaaaarrrd but lots of people swear by it. I had a lil look on the dukan forum here might try it at some point.

Had a mini binge last night, saw a friend and we had a bottle and a half of wine, nibbled some crisps. Then I came home and had cheese on toast and a chocolate bar. Whooops!
Back on track this morning tho.

Hope you guys are ok xx

 

[Bella30]

Sounds interesting. One of my mates on Facebook did it and she lost 9lbs in the first week! I think I might give it a go. Hope u had a nice evening catching up with your friend last night Xx

[Viva La Diva]

Smack me.....smack me......smack me.....no The Diva has not gone all kinky ( well kinkier !!) just fed up with YET another STS, boo yah SUCKS !!!!! Mature, eh ??? Hehe !!!!
Mega busy and if I am honest sooo busy in the next ten days or so with visitors here, trips, city break, dining out, food, more food, and probaly yet more food....if I do not gain back about 6 lbs I will be AMAZED !!!!
So if I am not around, it is because I have fallen face first into yet another delicious yummy meal out, with a bottle of wine in each hand.....oink, oink, oink !!!! We are on heatwave number 5 here already and expecting temps into the treble digits, so that's my excuse for not being outside walking( wobbling) my bottom off....as if I need an excuse apart from being a lazy arse !!!!

[stacy87]

Evening ladies!

Viva La Diva - wow sounds like you have a lot going on right now! It's so hard staying on track when things are crazy, so I do understand how you must be feeling!

Cinderz & Bella - I've heard of Dukan, but think I would really struggle with no/low carb! I tried it before but it didn't work well for me - I love my carbs too much!! :sigh:

Today I started my work week, working from now right through to Saturday. We actually had no one in the shop today!! We didn't take any money at all I really hope it starts to pick up soon, because this sitting around doing nothing is really not good for me!

On the plus side, each day I work I'm getting at least a half hour walk from my car to the shop and back, and had the dog out for his walk tonight too. I've really been on the go until now!

I heard from the university in Aberdeen (can't remember if I mentioned that I was enquiring at another University, which I would have to move to go to, to do my midwifery), and they will consider me with the qualifications I have. So I am applying to 2 universities for next year - yipee!

Hope everyone has had a good day! xxxxx

 

[Bella30]

Viva, you are hilarious! Enjoy all the socialising you've got planned over the next week or so.

Stacy, great news about uni. Which one would you prefer to go to?

I'm going to try the Dukan attack. Will start it on Friday for a week just to see how I get on. Got to get a few bits in before I can start so need tomorrow to prepare!

Hope everyone's had a nice day xxXXxx

 

[stacy87]

I'd much prefer to go to Edinburgh Napier, as it's the closest and would save me money cos I could stay at home, but moving away does seem exciting too! Since I've never been away from home for that long really!

Good luck with Dukan! Hope it works out for you xxx

 

[Bella30]

well it's good you have some options now. Will give you something to think about. Will let you know how I get on with Dukan.

On a more personal note, does anyone suffer from skin chafing? I've got it quite bad on my thighs at the mo but also on my belly and it's really uncomfortable. I'm not sure what the best thing is to get rid of it? It's times like this where I get really down about my weight coz I just think I'm a fat pig and if I was slimmer I wouldn't have these problems!

 

[stacy87]

Bella, yes I can't wear skirts because of chafing. It's absolute agony. I remember at my cousins wedding a few years ago I had my bridesmaid dress on-it was a hot summer day, and I was up dancing all night. When I got home I was walking like I'd wet myself and my thighs were all red and very very sore!

Not sure how to get rid of it, but have seen an advert for something that is supposed to be for chafing-can't remember the name of it though! X

Hi Girls

Jut quickly popped in as so busy at work I may not get a chance tomorow and then it'll be the weekend and I dont want you all thinking I have gone AWOL again haha.

Ive has a great few days calorie wise and been to the gym every day so I'm hoping for a canny loss this weekend. Saying that, I aint been great today as we had cake a quiche for someones 20th anniversary of working here, then we are off o my mams for home mase lasanga and tatie wedges but I'll try and just have a small protion then hopefully have time to hit the gym.

Annyhoo, sorry I cant chat to you all properly but I have soooo much on at work right now its unbelivable. I swear, my head feels like it going to pop haha.

Thinking of you all and hope you are all well and doing okay and I'll be back soon for a proper catch up (again). Cant wait till get internet at home to speak to you guys properly again.

Mwah xxxxxxxxxx

 

[Bella30]

it's horrible isn't it. I'm feeling a lot better today but I get so down about it and the more angry I get at myself for getting so fat in the first place! I really hope all this walking will pay off and help shift the weight, but until I start seeing results, I think I'll still be down about it.

Kassy, sounds like you're having a busy week, but well done for staying focused. Don't worry about today, I bet all the gym work will even itself out.

I'm preparing myself for a week of attack on the Dukan Diet. My sister is on day 2 and going really well. She's coming round to mine for dinner tomorrow and is going to go through it all with me and help me make a shopping list. I have a family party next sunday so will be nice if I can blitz some weight before hand! Last minute panic diet I think!!

 

[Miss_Kassy]

I think I'll give that Dukan diet a go too in a week or so. I have been on the same diet for sooo long I could do with a change.

So, do you all have many plans for this weekend?

I'm off bowling tonight then out in town tomorow so I am going to get my hair done all wavy at the hairdressers in the mornng and get dolled up in my one shoulder red pencil dress I'm really looking forward to it and will try my bestest not to compare myself to others haha.

We went to my mams for tea last night and she made a feast - Lasanga, sals, potato wedges and garlic bread. I ate loads but then I was good and went to the gym and done 400 calories in 35 mins. I was sweltering haha.

Oooh, girls, I have to agree - chafing is a right pain in the butt. Or should I say between the legs haha. I had it terrible a few years ago on holiday. I'm hoping I dont get it this year. I have seen tha gel advertised on the TV too. Has anyone tried it?

Keep up the positive thinking girls. We can all do it!!!!!

Ive gotta get back to work now, then I'll not be on here as its the weekend but will speak to you all next week.

Big hugs to you all and have a great weekend xxx

 

[cinderzxx]

wooooopsie... naughty naughty day!! Ive had cake, chocolate and a pasty! oh dear!! had a little party at placement coz it was my last proper shift (although im doing a night tomorrow, more nibbles... eeeeek)

monday weigh in going to be interesting! Hope you ladies are ok!

omg girls chaffing sucks.... Hope you're ok bella.... the hot weather makes it crapper I use talc it works quite well "in the creases" so to speak! Dr said to make sure skin is properly hydrated to keep it strong so not so easily damageable by friction if that makes sense (thats all my brain can manage after a loooooooooooooong heavy shift)
Im dreading hols soon because of that... going to try some Lanacane antichafing gel stuff and give that a go. If not ill be wearing little leggings under my skirts!!

skinny thighs soon please!!

Good luck with Dukan Bella....

Hope you have a fab weekend
Bowling sounds fun Kassy! have a good one!

Hope you're ok Stacy


am shattered so off to beddybyes....1 more shift then no more placement! wooooo
then only two more work shifts then Holiday mode!! 2 more early mornings to go! you dont know how happy this makes me!!!
