Scotsmists Take on Life!!!!!! And everything else :-)

Oh, if you find that inbetween malarky, please show me where i can purchase it! hahaaa x
 
Right now ladies, whats with this mars bar craze - STOP IT NOW.
I am up for the challenge too, already on my first litre as I was so thirsty before I left home this morning. Glug glug.

Well done on the walking Iris, isn't it surprising just how many steps are taken in a day!
 
Well done on all the steps Iris, no wonder you are aching so much.

I'm the same Mary, sat in work and nearly through my first litre, another 2 to go and I'm at my limit!
 
extra steps = exercise for us who detest it! :giggle:
 
First thing in the morning at work I'm running to the loo every hour! Glad my bosses are downstairs and I'm upstairs!

But like you said, it's all good exercise!

WELL DONE ON YOUR 2LB LOSS SWEETIE...GOSH, CANT BELIEVE 5 WEEKS....DOESNT FEEL THAT LONG!!!!!
 
Well I am on Day 27 and confession time..I havent read RC book in 2 days; I have been so manic busy at work and then at night I am barely keeping up with everything that needs doing.

I got home on Friday night and Tunc asked me to go to the other allotment as he had dismantled the shed from one of the plots (we were buying it from the guy as he has left)..........so, down I went and got such a lovely surprise, as he had assembled it all and there it was...PRIDE OF PLACE and it looked good...wonderful! I WILL post pics...(feel I am always saying this and it doesnt happen)..Now, have I told you this about the shed?? dont think I have....haha..if I have sorry!

Anyhow, been getting home so late and just eating oven chips and we had a cornish pastie as well last night..I just couldnt be botered cooking a different meal for me and one for OH!!

I feel as though I am just not watching what I am eating now..a bit annoyed at myself, but being realistic and honest too.
So, no weigh in tomorrow and I am going to go back to Wk 1 and 2 now and stick to 1200 cals.....I dont feel out of control yet, but could go that way if I dont curb this now.

Went to Hawkstone Park - The Follies, in Shropshire today for our walk......guess how many steps!! You wont believe it....I cant!! But, my legs feel it..in fact, I havent felt so physically shattered in a long time....it was a hard climb, but so good! OK, kept you in suspense long enough...as I sit here, I have done 23,374 steps today (14.72km)!!!!!! WAWWWWW, WAWWW, WAWWW.....If I was on WW, I would have gaine 5 points...this week to date with all my walking, again if on WW I would have earnt 16.5 points for the whole week!

I have a friend coming tomorrow, and our plan is to have quiche and salad and a bottle of red wine!!! She is bringing nibbles as well, AND THAT WILL BE IT!! I will be back on the straight and narrow on Monday, promise!!!!!

Busy week ahead with the bees/hives due....not sure exactly what day, as the hive has been delayed. Should have been here on Friday and the company have let us down, so fingers crossed that it turns up before the bees!!!!!!! That will be a wee bit awkward if not.

Hope you are all having a good weekend!!!!!!!!
 
Flippin' 'eck Iris - surely all those steps make up for lots of the things you 'shouldn't' have had!!

I thought about you walking today .. hope you don't suffer for it - sure you won't :)

Ahhhh lovely how Tunc surprised you with the shed :):)

I saw a 'to let' sign today on my way home from work - never seen one like it before but maybe it's just that they haven't registered with me, but it was 'Opus Estates' - is that you? (well you know what I mean) ... if so - funy that :)

Have a LOVELY time with your friend :) xx
 
Almost 15 km of a walk!!!!!! Hats off to you for some amount of exercise. Between that and the allotment you should be skinny as a bloomin'rake!!!!
You must be thrilled with your shed. Now you will have to get it all stocked up with your bits and bobs.

Cancelled meeting with my friend today..I just dont feel up to it. I am tired and think I need to give myself a bit of ME time...Tunc is away today so I can just potter about and do little jobs (like house filing that is about 6 months worth) and sort out my dressing room! I am just in a right mess at home. I am tired too and think yesterday took it out of me!

Jan, if only it were a few bits and bobs then I think I would have been ok with all the walking, but me being me it wasnt, and all carbs too, which doesnt help..but I am not stressed about it and will get back on track tomorrow!

Yes, it was lovely of him, and it looks so good...as though the space we prepared for it was meant for it! We even have a 1000 ltr water barrel, which is at the back too, so he is going to construct some guttering and we will let the rain water collect in it :)

Our sweetcorn is looking WONDERFUL...so we are very hopeful for them this year! We have about 50-60 plants, AND I dont know what we will do with them all if they work!!! hahaha.....corn soup, fritters and a new BIG FEEZER!!!!!

The Opus you mentioned is different.. there is an Opus that does house lettings, etc ...I am forever receiving phone calls :)

I know I shoudl be Irish...dont know why I fight my weight sometimes as I am anything but lazy..I never stop...I seem to be on my feet constantly!!
 
Blooming heck woman, I am just knackered reading what you do in a day, let alone do it.

I think you deserved your day off for ME TIME, you CAN do too much Iris and everyone needs to recoup those batteries. Exercise is all well and good, but make sure you have at least two days a week rest.

Your allotment must be looking swell now Iris with the new shed, how sweet of Tunc to put it all up and surprise you like that, thats really nice.

I agree with Irish Molly, you should be as skinny as a rake with all that you do.
 
Well done for recognising what you needed and giving yourself permission to do it!!!

You and me both back on track from tomorrow ya hear??!! ;) xx
 
oooooo - I love threesomes ;) :) LOL!!!!!!
 
:eek: ;) hahahahaa
 
Not that I've ever ..... weeeeeeeell ..... ya know ....... ;) :):) xx
 
Well I have been extremely good anyway ladies.......so thats a 4some as I intend to continue.....lol
 
WOOHOO ... BRILL!!! ;):):) xx

I really really enjoyed today! I did all my filing; went back to Oct 09!!!! Tidied my dressing room and it looks nice and tidy and all my boots (around 15 pairs!!!!) all put away and my winter shoes too! Summer shoes/sandals are in their baskets ready for awearing ;-)!!!

But, I still went into the allotment at home...pottered about doing all sorts. Went out around 2pm and came back at 9pm:D Steps today 17461 so far but will do more when I walk upstair to go to bed :8855:earnt 3.5 points!!!! I amaze myself..I didnt realise how far I walked in a day, but I suppose just watering and walking around all adds up!

My neighour, hubby and the 2 wee girls came to see me and brought both Tunc and I a little choc cake as it was one of their birthdays yesterday...it was like a cornflake cake,,yummy ;)

I know Mary, skinny as a rake I should be!!!! ONE DAY MAYBE - but strangely enough, for all the eating I have done the past week I actually dont feel fat, so all the walking must be helping!!!!!!

Yes, I need a few days rest...getting older :eek::eek:

My friend Laura is really understanding.....well she is Scottish..hahahahaha......she was fine with it but I did phone her later on in the day and had a wee chat to her. I see her every morning and night on the train and we are out to the beekeeping meeting on Sunday together....I have invited her for dinner one night in the week, so nothing lost!!

YES, ONTRACK TOMORROW...I have my egg/beetroot and asparagus (more from the allotment...hhee) salad all ready and looking forward to it!!
Me too!!!! x

oooooo - I love threesomes ;) :) LOL!!!!!!

hehehehehe.....yaramaz kedi (as Tunc would say....)

Well I have been extremely good anyway ladies.......so thats a 4some as I intend to continue.....lol

4some,even better eh Jan :8855::8855:

RIGHT, SO WE ARE ALL GOING TO BE SENSIBLE THIS WEEK........I need to drink more...not normally a problem but the past few days I havent drank way enough...so, onwards and upwards!!!!

I havent weighed myself, s I wont know if I have lost or gained, but I dont mind that, I am just happy to be watching again and I think I am going to hide the scales as well so that I dont start to become paranoid :)

Have a great week everyone!!!!
