My slim dream, 7stone in and 3 to go in time for christmas????

I have subscribed to your thread I will read it later keep up the good work the photos look great x
 
Hope you had a great weekend! Weather here was fantastic - had a lovely long walk with dog on Sat and then spent 2+ hours in the garden weeding, cutting back ivy, etc. Sunday the dog and I spent several hours in the city park, catching some rays and wandering around. In the evening, I caught up with a friend who is in town for a conference - the only downside to that was we went out to dinner and while I was relatively wise, I wasn't completely so - had a mojito to drink and chose steak over fish. Could have lost more than 5lbs I figure on my first week, but I'm no longer against a strict deadline and I'm just going to keep plugging away at it til I get to goal.

In fact, Ninja, you are one of my inspirers (is that a word?). No matter what happens - and in your life plenty does!!! - you just keep moving forward. You keep the diet pretty grounded and matter of fact, vs the some of the moaning and cravings, etc other diaries (including my own) seem to be full of. I don't know how you do it, but I admire it no end!

Have a great week!
 
Just read all your diary and want to say a massive well done you are doing great even with the trials and tribulations of day to day life you hve managed some good losses and minimal gains. I have all confidence you will be at your target for your 30th and feeling fantastic!!! Xx
 
Wow!!! Your pics are fab! Well Done girl! You really do Stand taller in the last 3!

Bit late to the game but woooop to Ella and the potty clever girl! :)

Hope ur well

Evening and thankd everyone :)

Well its another week down, stuck to my exercise regime all week and lost another 3lbs this week so im pleased with that :) We're going away to Wales for a few nights tomorrow, really really excited even though it'll rain just be nice to be away from work and with my family.

Met up with a very close friend ive not seen for almost a yr and she couldnt believe the difference in me nor me her she's lost 3st since i last saw her and looks fab so we had a lovely catch up and Ella had a lovely time playing with her lil boy.

Ooo had another pair of trousers fall off me today too, good job i wasnt outside so thats 3 sizes of trousers now ive got in the fall off pile lol
 
Is it time to buy some suspenders or belts? Sounds like you are living life dangerously with your clothes falling off! :)
 
Woohoo to the 3lbs hunny hope you had a fab break and the weather was good to you

xxxxxxxxxxxxxx
 
Well we're back from our little jaunt and we had a lovely time. Did not stick 100% to the diet but didn't go mad either, spent the days total CWP and then had a nice carby evening meal so hopefully not too much damage will have been done and back on it as always now the break is over.

Had some good news yesterday too, hubby's getting some inheritance later this week from the house sale that fell through a few months ago well its now been sold and father in law giving us money to clear off our debts by the end of the week and we're just to let him know when we find a house so he can give us deposit for that too :) We're going to be sensible and wait 6 months before applying for a mortgage so we'll have been debt free for 6 months but we'll be almost £500 a month better off from next week eeek it feels very exciting. I'm also planning to do a bit of catalogue shopping when i get in from work, desperately need trousers and long sleeved tops because i have now 1 pair of trousers that fit, no jeans atall anymore and no long sleeved tops that dont fall off shoulders lol think im now a 16/18 top and 18/20 bottom in catalogue eeek how exciting!!!!
 
Yay on £500 better off, and yay on the weightloss's so far. Yipeee on the new clothes to buy nothing nicer :) Your doing great :D
 
Thanks :) had a lovely day today, saw the specialist weight management people who i was originally referred to last yr and they were incredibly pleased with my weight loss so far :) Although i think they were disappointed that it wasnt from anything they've done....every single appointment ive had since Oct 2011 has been cancelled by them until this one i went to today!!!!!!
 
Nothing nicer than feeling smug :) well done xx
 
How could it possibly be anything they've done if they've cancelled all your appointments?!? Good for you for taking matters into your own hands and finding your own solution. You've definitely earned the right to be smug! :)

Had a strawberry shake this morning after not having shakes for 2 months (since I went on vacation). For some reason I went off them and preferred having something warm - porridge, soup - or a bar. However, I've now gone off the porridge - couldn't finish the last 2 bowls I had (and it's scary how hard it gets when it is left - I'm not sure it isn't some sort of cement derivative....). Now working on drinking enough water. Might need to switch to tea.

I've been up very early every morning this week and going to bed late through combination of work and travel. Am really tired - sitting here in the office trying not to doze off and this is after 3 cups of coffee! Nudge me if I snore.....
 
Afternoon :)

Well ive been not too good the last few days, woke up thurs morning at 4am with an asthma attack (ive not had asthma since being a child) and was like a fish trying to breathe, same thing happened when i tried to go to work thurs morning so ive been off sick since. Went to docs Friday and been diagnosed with a lovely chest infection and fluid on my right lung and apparently was a very good job i went to get checked out else it could have turned into a pneumonia so im on antibiotics and steroids and i must say i feel pretty rotten, very lethargic and just ughhh so thats over a week now since ive done any exercise, at the min just walking downstairs is getting me breathless. Got weighed today too and ive lost another 1.5inches off my whole body.....total of 13inches off my waist now since March YAYYYYY but only lost 1lbs in weight....very annoyed that the 17s have eluded me for another week grrr, that's 7wks now ive been in these blasted 18s grumble grumble grumble but on the AMAZING plus side I wore a size 16 jumper yesterday and it looked amazing!!!!!! In fact ive got 3 size 16 jumpers that look amazing, i dont for one second think i am a size 16 yet but i will be by end of October so as it stands in March my wardrobe consited of size 24 tops and 26 bottoms and now im wearing 16/18 tops and size 20 bottoms so i am VERY pleased.

We went shopping to the T Ctr today and i got my eyebrows waxed at the benefit brow bar in Boots and i must say i didnt realise how caterpillarish my brows had gotten....it has been 4yrs since i treated them to a wax lol and just bought a few waist belts from dotty P's but theyre a tad on the tight side but im sure in next few weeks they'll look splendid.

Not a lot else going on today, Ellas only just gone down for her nap after running riot in the T Ctr so it'll be a loooong evening as she wont be wanting to go to bed at 7 when she does wake up but we'll let her off.

Tizzy how you finding it being back on cambridge? I'm thinking of getting some soups again over the coming weeks as the weather's changed, feels a bit weird having ice cold slush every day :)
 
Sorry you have been poorly, ((hugs)) well done on the loss and the inch loss that's great keeps you motivated you will soon be in the 17s, nothing nicer than new territory for ones body :) I feel super motivated ATM long may it last :) x
 
Thanks slimming girl ooooo isnt it great when super motivation hits, does it make you feel all euphoric???? I feel on top of the world when i get weeks like that!!!!!
 
It makes me feel great like yay I can do this and im doing it, I'm working on my willpower and trying to teach myself that if I feel like food do add a meal il still have losses I wand to get away from the I feel like eating lets demolish food for 5000 haha :) x
 
I get days like that, dont thnik it'll ever go away but then i also think that's pretty normal coz my sister who is a size 8 often has days where she eats like a piggy but then eats healthily for the rest of the time, she does do an awful lot of exercise too though :)
 
Hi there! Sounds like you're shrinking away, despite only losing 1lb! It so cool that you're in such small sizes -what a long way you've come!!!

I'm doing ok, but finding it harder this time around. And I did myself no favours this weekend - went to Ireland to see the new grandson of a friend of mine and ended up eating normal food (mostly protein, veg and fruit) all weekend. Weigh-in is tomorrow morning and I expect an increase. But will be right back on CD - I really want to lose another 15-20lbs before I'm satisfied!

Weather has turned and it's cold and raining. Fall is coming!
 
Afternoon :) Well im still no better, contemplating going back to docs in the morning if i still can't breathe properly, feels like someone is sitting on the bottom of my lungs and squeezing :( Had a nice weekend though but didn't really stick to plan, think my body is needing carbs whilst its sickly because im just lacking energy but that is sommat my CDC said when she came on Sat so gotta listen to your body i suppose. Nothing really planned for today, i had a very very lazy morning propped up in bed with a giant pillow hoping that staying in bed would make my lungs a little better, got up after lunch and had a hot shower, it's the only place i can breathe properly in the steam. Nothing planned for this afternoon.

Tizzy i hope your WI goes well, shouldn't take you too long to lose another stone, are you hoping to be there for christmas? xx
