Ok here goes, my journey

[Jojo25]

Don't fret Winnie I'm no push over. I never thought embarking on this journey my weightloss would cause me to possibly to lose my relationship as well. It all kicked off last night because one of his friends who hasn't seen me for a while paid me a load of compliments & Mr Jellybelly made an appearance.

After my big fat roast dinner at the carvery where I had beef & turkey & lots of veggies I'm stuffed. So if I do eat later it'll be sf jelly & rhubarb - if at all.

Am I the only one in the country not watching the England match ???

I'm looking forward to Friday, seeing one of my besties. Even though we are in contact every day we've not seen each other since feb, she knows I'm on Dukan & asks me every week how much I've lost. It'll be interesting to see what differences she can see in me now I've list 30lb.

Hi Jo, I just had a read of your first ever entry and what you said resonated with me so much. Then I looked at your stats - wow!! Amazing work so far, really impressive, you must be delighted! Also know what you mean about the cat - mine died about 10 years ago and I was just back at my parents' and thought I heard her bell tinkle - really got me. Catty heaven must be fun though

Right, second half starting up (hehe, yep, you may well be the only one not watching...!!)

[Paulinegin]

I've said it before and I'll say it again 'bloody men!'

As for the football, seriously, it needs to end now so we can get our Emmerdale and Corrie episodes back in their rightful timeslots!!

Happy Monday, Jo

im with P ... im fed up turning over after hollyoaks to find bloddy football on instead of emmerdale

 

[Jojo25]

Ha ! So England lost but it's still been the main topic of convo in our office today. FB was full of it last night too that I actually switched my PC off & did my ironing instead.

So back to PP today for a few days, oh how I will miss you veggies

B Muffins
L Cottage cheese, boiled eggs, home made yogurt & SF jelly
D Spicy chicken, tofu creme

I've used up all the rhurbard from my last trip to the lotty, hoping the weather is decent towards the end of the week so I can get some more.

Hope everyone is having a good Dukan Monday x

Oh Lordy what a night I've had ! Had a phone call from my neighbour who had forgotten her pass for work which she needed as its one of those swipey type cards & as she works in a secure unit for nutters sorry mentally Ill people she needed it for the doors. I kindly offered to drop it down so off I went handed the card in to reception as they won't let you any further & back to the car I went.

Need to explain I am in my pj's do it sets the scene. Key into ignition & nothing, tried again & again & again still nothing **** !!!!!!!!!! Some young lads walk past & I ask if they can give me a push to try & jump it as I suspect it's the starter motor again nothing !

So I'm in the 4th emergency service green flag & call them out, within the hour I'm told. 20 mins later a recovery truck turns up so I say are you green flag, yes the man says. No attempt to start the car, no looking under the bonnet - nothing !!!! I phone my mechanic to ask if I can drop the car at his house so he can have a look tomorrow which he said is fine but green flag should try & get you going he says.

So back to the man with the recovery truck, me "are you going to try & get it going" him "no I'll just take you where you want to go" & he starts strapping the car up for towing. He drops out he knows nothing about cars

Me getting all stroppy phones green flag having a rant "what the hell am I paying you a breakdown fee for when you send me a man out who doesn't know one end if a car to the other" woman from gf "our mechanic is 15mins away, he hasn't reached you yet " so who the hell is strapping my car up !!!!!!!!

So there I am in a non desirable area in my pjs with a man pretending to be from green flag !!!!!!!

So what do I do only go & have a rant at him & demand he unstraps my car. After a bit of a debate & me threatening him with the police he unstraps it & drives off - phew !!!!!

Get back in the car & it only bloody starts !!!!!!!!!!!

Cancelled gf, got to the mechanics & it wouldn't start again so it's having a new starter motor tomorrow.

What a evening, just for doing a good turn !!!

Oh Jo, I'm sorry, that's hilarious and shocking at the same time. Who the heck was he? Does he just drive round all night looking for cars to tow? Completely bizarre and more than a bit worrying. Go you for laying into him! Never underestimate a woman in her PJs, that's my motto.

[Paulinegin]

Bloody hell Jo! That started off funny but then quickly turned scary ....

Glad you're fine and dandy, me darlin'. What a tough time you're having at the moment.

Much love

[Paulinegin]

PS - did you get his registration number? I think you should report this to the police (with or without registration) xxx

 

[Triniprinc3ss]

OMG Jo!!! That's so scary!

I hope you're okay and definitely report it.

[Jojo25]

Nope didn't get the registration & didn't even think out it how stupid am i !!!!!! At the time I wasn't even scared I was just annoyed but once I'd calmed down it hit me what could of happened. Still waiting for news on my car, guys at work keep saying it's costly

Update on the car, my mechanic said that whilst he was starting to change the starter motor he noticed the lead from the battery to the starter motor was loose, he tightened it all & it started everytime. He said he'd rather I broke down one more time to prove it rather than changed it for nothing & have the cost.

So car cost nothing today just need to make sure i don't go out in my pj's for the next week

I'm at the hospital tomorrow about the tests on my eyes I had last week, hope they discharge me

 

[ellie1969]

phew thats good

 

[Triniprinc3ss]

I know cars are costly.

The amount of things that need doing to mine *sigh* lol!

I must remember to tax the car this week

 

[Paulinegin]

Good luck at the hospital, lovely and, at the risk of sounding like your mum, please think about calling the police.

End of nag

[Jojo25]
