Thanks Shanny, it's nice to be remembered as I don't see many of the guys from 2006 on here. The forum seems to have changed a bit since then. I hope all the others who aren't on Minis anymore kept the weight off :fingerscrossed:.
Hey Lozza, I know it's really not much more to go but it feels like it's going to take ages and there's still so much more to come off my tummy rather than off my arms and face! It's a funny old thing weightloss...
I've had a very dodge weekend. The Camden Crawl does not a good diet make! In brief, I got up on Saturday morning and had my shake, packed a few with me and worried a bit as had no Tesco bars left. Got into London, started wanting my shake in the afternoon but was in the pub all day so couldn't really (I was virtous and managed to stay 100% teetotal, GO ME

). Looked for a Tesco but why is it they appear to own the world but when you actually want one you can't bl*ody find one????? Found a huge Sainsburys, rushed in, leaving boys outside, and ran to food replacement section to be greeted by a few poxy Slim Fast shakes and a Slim Fast caramel chocolate snack bar. Bought that, panicked and bought 4 packed chicken thighs as well (the nice cooked ones that I'm sure they cover in glucose syrup for some odd reason). Had the bar then immediately regretted it as have no idea if it was suitable or not (was good though

) or whether it would take me out of ketosis. Got back to the hotel at about midnight (we were extremely lame) where I scoffed 2 chicken thighs and had a milkshake. Felt very fat that day.
Sunday, got up, scoffed the remaining 2 chicken thighs in the morning with a bleurgh strawberry milkshake. The hotel had no fridge so the chicken had been sitting around all night. That appeared to have a toiletery impact later on...Then didn't get a chance to have a milkshake ALL DAY and had my next milkshake at 2am when we got home after a complete nightmare of a journey from London involving replacement bus services.
So it all went a bit haywire. I drunk lots of soda water (stupidly expensive in London pubs) but nowhere near enough. I also had a titchy, tiny bite of my friend's Persian chicken, which tasted like mint sauce and foul. He kept going on ALL weekend about not drinking and not eating and generally doing my head in. He reckons I don't need to lose weight and that he thought the first time I went on Cambridge that I lost too much. It's nice and all but it gets seriously boring having someone ask you if you want a cider every time they go to the bar when they know you're not drinking. Yesterday I sat in a pub where 3 skinny girls were eating these enormous burgers with a bowl of chips each and I almost run screaming out of the place!!! AND they finished it all.
My only tantrum like moment was when Boo and I went to see a band. We left as they were a bit rubbish and we were commenting on how rubbish it all was and he said "yeah, but she was nice". Now I'm not the type to usually get massively funny about that sort of thing but she was TINY, and I mean like a size 6 or something, with a cool dress, red lipstick and skinny little arms, and then I got to thinking all about how I'm probably the fattest person he's ever been with and about his tiny little pretty ex-girlfriends and went into a bit of a sulk. Not for too long mind but probably longer than is reasonable. I was just having a bit of a pity party about how I was the one not eating or drinking and she probably has no idea what it's like to be on a diet. Ho hum. I'm over it now.
Hope everyone has had a good weekend and enjoying their bank holibob Monday, if they are lucky enough to be off work. Missed everyone's support over the last couple of days xxxxxx
