Slim at 30

Eastbourne. Been planning on going for weeks and finally going! I think it's going to be a hot one so going to pretend I'm on holiday, lol

You doing anything nice today?

I live in Eastbourne lol going to that extreme thing on seafront. Where abouts are you from lizzy? X

Ha! Its a small world! I live in Croydon so an hour or so away but we go to eastbourne quite a lot. We often talk about moving there but havnt done it as yet. What is it like living there?

We saw the extreme thing briefly, had a good wander up and down the beach then ended up in the treasure island soft play as wanted to get out of the sun. Had quite a stressful time though as the kids were a nightmare in the car there and back!
 
Ate approximately 9 million syns today so will not be updating my food diary. Just assume it is bad.......

Me too! Dad cooked a fry up and it went downhill from there... x

The soft play isn't usually too bad as ben is nearly 5 now so can just go off and play and Daniel loves watching what's going on. Ben has been in a foul mood this week though so it was just horrible. Plus some kid did a poo in the ball pool so they had to shut half of it down! Haha. I think we will definitely move somewhere Coastal in the future and Eastbourne is definitely our top choice at the mo, we just need to sort out money situation etc. I really want to move before ben starts secondary school as the schools here are awful!

How are your girls?
 
Oh lizzie. Your dad sounds like a good man! I really need a fry up today, ryvita for me though. :(
Are you having a nice weekend though?

My Dad really is amazing! I'm having a lovely weekend, thanks. Got to see my 2 year old nephew yesterday too. Back in London now, so can hopefully focus on losing my last 1lb! Hope you're enjoying yourself. x
 
Ok, time to get back on track. Saw a photo of myself yesterday and wanted to cry! I think i suffer from that body dysmorphia in reverse. I look in the mirror in the morning and although I'm definitely not ecstatic about how I look, I don't look too bad, but when I see photos I look awful!

The heat makes me want naughty things, plus 'time of the month' isn't helping.

I don't really crave cold food so don't fancy salads, I don't like lettuce either so that doesn't help. I need to make up a batch of soup today I think, need to raid the fridge for some veg.

Hmm, they don't inspire me either. I just don't really do cold food unless its chocolate. Haha. Luckily I'm at home so I can make hot food, I'm just feeling a bit uninspired at the mo. I've got some pasta n sauce in the cupboard so think I will have that today. I'm fancying a curry for some reason though! Haha.

How are you getting on cai?
 
Gaining weight at a 'steady' rate lol.

I've already gained more than I wanted to for the whole pregnancy and I'm only 29 weeks! Ooooops lol. However I am only intending on doing this once as I am hating it! :-( I said to hubby the other day if h wants a 2nd we should adopt!! :)

Just sat in the doctors now having glucose tests and doing some work as have to wait 2 hours for bloods to be taken again! I am seriously thinking of going to costa on my way bk to work to get myself and the other year6 teacher one of their new smoothies! Something cold will be nice! Then of course there's all the other staff but the yr6 teacher has volunteered to practice our end of year assembly without me which is a stress lol.

Is it wrong that I am excited to join a group once baby is here and hope to loose weight at a steady rate again lol x

I had to have the gtt tests too. It wasn't too bad though, hope its over with for you soon. The smoothie sounds nice! Definitely good in this heat. Are you having to go back to school after?

Wow, 29 weeks, this is the bit I hated as it seemed to drag so much, although looking back now, it did actually go so quickly!

As you say, you are only pregnant once ( even if its twice its still a short time) so do what you can to enjoy it. I had massive chocolate cravings and I know they were pregnancy related and not just greed as they have subsided massively now. I gave in to the cravings and glad I did as it made the whole thing less stressful! You will have loads of time after to lose weight.

How did wi go? Hope you got to your target!

I went shopping with my mum today which took longer than expected. We were starving so ended up having McDonald's for lunch. Gaaaa! It was that or a Burger King. I've decided to go back to baisics tomorrow and start from scratch as I'm really not getting anywhere at the mo. I am happy that I'm not giving up as I usually would have by now!

I got it! Haven't been this excited in ages! Can't believe I've actually done it. I'm sure you'll get back on track. I'm now worried that I'll lose motivation and get back some old habits! x
