Morning Lily x

As you may have seen on my own diary, I too decided a few days back that I really needed to shorten the time that I spent on here, I actually didn't even log on first thing this morning, but waited until I was having my mid morning coffee to do so.

Then I intend to pop on after lunch, before I go for Kate, and I rarely come on here after that anyway, other than if they are all out, with isn't often!

Have fun exercising!

Afternoon lovely Lynne, I have to shorten the time on here, I just feel like I am on here all day so that has to change....I don't want to change, but I think it's part of what has left me struggling to get abck on track, so it has to be done, I will not be able to visit everyone's diary that I am subscribed to, on a regular basis, but they all know where I am if they need me and I am always happy to give my mobile number if anyone needs a buddy to chat to and get support from, when they are struggling so never far away....but this has to be about me ultimately and that's what's got me back on track ...so as much as I love you all, I am spreading myself too thin and it's got to stop.
You're plan sounds good to me, I do like being on here in the evenings as Mal enjoys his poker and Kirsty n Mark are always off doing something, so the evenings are good a lot of the time.
Have a great day lovely :hug99: xxxxxxxxx

:woohoo: Lily is back :woohoo: Loving the positives my lovely twin :woohoo:

Bacon, and chicken and mushroom salad is fab :D in fact I want one now! :eek: bowl of salad and then cook and chop bacon, mushroom chicken on top and eat mmmmmmmmmmmmmm

Hey my lovely twin, I am back for real this time, I feel like a kid in a candy shop, don't know what to do first cos I want to do it all lol
I am just loving me right now, still got an awfully long way to go but I am getting there and can feel my blood surging through my body.....hope that is excitement and not me about to have some sort of attack :giggle:
Bacon, Chicken and Mushroom Salad is on the menu for tomorrow now...omg it just sounds divine and incorporates everything I actually love ....we really are twins aren't we .
Do you know what the funny things is about being back on track, and it's something I know you more than most will recognise....I feel so happy and so ready to get back on track that I'm not actually thinking about food and the last 3 days for the first time in my life, I found myself leaving food, I just couldn't eat it, and believe me when i tell you I have an endless appetite, could eat for england as a rule, but not these last few days. Day 1, I forced it down (old habits die hard), day 2, I tried but just couldn't manage it and day 3 (last night) as soon as I felt full I stopped and still had half a plate full of burger and chips, I'd eaten all my salad and coleslaw so all the good stuff had gone in, the burgers and chips were home made too, so syn free but just couldn't manage them all...go me eh?
Have a great day hunni, am off to visit a couple of diaries before my hour is up lol and then it's exercise and lunch ...woohoo go me :hug99: xxxxxxxxxxxx
 
Hello Kally, me too, have run out of time now, so I will have to visit other diaries later, hope you're having a lovely day hun :hug99: xxxxxxxx
 
sounds good Lily. That salad is fab if you can afford 6 syns for cheese too :D I used to cut it into tiny bits and sprinkle it within the salad, made it feel such a norty salad yet very healthy :D So glad all has clicked into place again Lily :D I've found this a tough few months but my head is finally in the right place so hoping to do a little better than maintain now :giggle: x

Hey sweetie, believe me if it's good I write it down cos with my brain i'd definitely forget it lol....know what you mean about the needle in a haystack been looking for a post for a few days now, so frustrating :argh:

I don't knoiw what yesterday was about, but I felt terrible all day ...got up at 5am this morning after just 4 hours sleep and feel as right as rain, very weird ...ah well best not to ponder on it and just move on :rolleyes:

I have been such a busy little bee since 5am though.....astonished at myself :giggle:

Have washed, dried, folded and put away 2 loads of washing already, cleaned the kitchen, prepared dinner and had breakfast tooand not even 10am yet, oh that's as well as catching up with all my diaries too, seems like I have to get up at 5am everyday to get everything in :8855: xxxx:hug99:xxxx
 
You sound like me lily..

Have cleaned up, made the Tuscan bean soup, doner meat and made breakfast for hubby.. Folded some clothes away with some more clothes in the washing machine.

Got such a busy day ahead as well yet.

Have to make at least another 3-4 dishes for the coming week.. And it's only a 4 day working week too :bliss: better to be prepared than to syn!
