Food all sounds really good this week! Have you made it back to the gym yet? I've managed one workout, hoping to fit in another today! Xx

I finally made a gym class! Went to combat tonight. I feel so much better! I'm such a self sabotaur sometimes!

Still no wedding dress :-(

Still no wedding dress :-(

I know, it's such a great feeling once you've exercised! But I hate the actual doing it!!!

Has the dress shop heard from the designer when it's going to be shipped?? It'll come in time and as you said, the lady will get it altered in time for you no matter when it comes. Try not to worry xxx

Saturday 14th January

Green

Headed to the gym when i got up and then had to rush off to meet our photographer so never got breakfast. Thought we would head somewhere for lunch and i ended up having a really nice risotto which wasn't really what i was after but the menu was pretty limited and it seemed to be the the best choice. It had pesto which a stupidly assumed would be on the side but it wasn't. It also had chesnuts but i didn't eat them.

L: Butternut squash & blue cheese risotto with pesto and chesnuts (minus chesnuts. Heb1&2 for oil, Hea 1&2 for cheese + 5 syns?)

D: Dont know whether to keep it simple tonigth and just have an omlette or try a SW baked cannelloni:
Baked cannelloni - Recipes - Slimming World

I do plan to have some wine tonight (13 syns) . Looking forward to a glass or two with the flat to myself and some one born every minute and then maybe a chic flick.

Edit: went for a supernoodle omlette and SW chips with ketchup (2 syns)

Syns: 20

I know, you are right. I got really stressed out about it this week. Partly because some of the girls from work where freaking me out (because its so close) but also because everytime i phone them i feel like they either fob me off or they just dont seem to have a clue whats going on - first it was coming before xmas, then they didnt know, then it was wednesday last week, then it was friday or monday, now its monday or tues! They are driving me mad! But you are right. Its bound to arrive next week at some point and then i can get it to my dress maker. Anything go wrong during your wedding plans or on the actual day?

I had my colour done the day before, they left it on too long and I looked a bit like a barbie - in a bad way, was very white and dry, there were LOTS of tears but I look back at the photos and think yeah it does look blonder than normal but it was fine. Don't stress about it hun, it'll come and you'll think why did I get so upset about it! On the day nothing matters, you'll look gorgeous and the main thing is you'll be marrying the guy you love xxx

Oh Noooooooo! I'm not surprised there were tears, I would be the same. But like you say, you were probably the only one who noticed! I seem to let everything overwhelm me at the moment.

Keep your fingers crossed for me that I get my dress tomorrow! I just realised, even though I'm a lb out of Target range, if I havent lost it tomorrow I will have to stop trying to lose and go back to maintaining once my dress comes. Last thing I need at this stage is even more last minute alterations lol!

 

[B's lovely lady]

Fingers crossed!!!! Yeah you will have to try and maintain, it's really difficult too in the last couple of weeks! I lost 6lbs between my final fitting and week before wedding, I spent the last week eating eating eating so the dress would fit!
