Stubbseys Diary - back in the zone!

^^^ Doesn't sound at all like tosh to me, diem. Sounds like the truth, and very well put.

Stubbsey, I found that fasting was a very mood-lowering experience so if you're already low I wouldn't advise carrying on with it today. As ML says, it is not part of the Atkins plan, so you've no need to feel negative about eating.

Chin up, hun :bighug:
 
Thanks everyone! This particular friend is a very arms length person in any case, she used to be qite supportive and initiated texts etc but now it is always me that ends up texting because she has left it so long, or arranging a meet up, she is maintaining now, sometimes i feel that it was ok when she needed support n diet buddys but now she doesnt. Maybe i am too sensitive at the mo.

i like the fasting, really want to do it! Feel that it has brought a lot to my life, my back has been easier, the losses have been more stable and constant, and i generally feel brighter, just sometimes when we feel emotional the tendancy is to reach for food, and doing a fast might cause more emotion, but then it will at least stop me comfort eating!

i am usually quite happy go lucky and have a reputation as a 'bit of a laugh' people rarely see my down side, i am good at hiding it. I guess i feel glum because i dont make friends so easilly anymore, i used to but lack confidence in myself now.
 
yes thankyou Diem, i value everyone on here its such a great place!!

i think it might be where i spent so long oveweight, i was either the workplace clown, or someone who faded into the background on a night out with them. never, confident enough to really be myself and enjoy it. i would always make sure i had to drive so i didnt drink and really embarress myself (except for once, that was totally another story, but interestingly coincided with when i first did Atkins the first time and was losing a good amount of weight) that is deffo another story lol..

i have always found workplace friendships very cliquey in any case but the place iv worked more than usual. that is the only thing i can think of, it just makes you feel like you have nothing to say that anyone would actually want to hear x
 
did my day of fasting made curry noodles and omg they were awful!!! i didnt have any left so had to eat them, i think its because i had an indian tasting curry rather than a chinese tasting curry but i have sussed it for next time.

it wasnt too hard today. had a good chat with my sister online earlier which was nice, we are actually getting quite close lately, she confides in me more now too which is nice.

think i am going to have an early night (well early for me)... watching a copied Mock the Week, and cracked up over one silly joke.... Uri Geller, surprisingly hard to stab! and when the guy that invented tetris died and was burried the whole row in the cemetry disappeared... it tickled me out of my grumps anyway..

night night all

b. nothing
l. curry noodles
d. curry noodles
s. hartleys jelly & 1 tsp cream... and early cup of boulion
 
Lol! I've got the xl episode to watch later so I'll lol all over again. Nice to hear that you're getting closer to your sister. Have a good day.
 
Morning hun - how you feeling today? Some days it's hard to shake the maudlins, eh? But we are absolutely here for you, all the time, no texts required :)

I have a 'friend' like that - we were really close, then she just stopped speaking to me, later accused me of saying something nasty about her OH (eh what???), then couldn't understand why I was wary when she wanted to be friends again. I can't be bothered with that guff anymore - be with me or be somewhere else, that's my motto :D
 
Hi lady Su, yes feeling bit brighter today tho i just got a text reminding me of the last part of my root canal on thursday ughgh its a lovely bright sunny day so that always lightens the mood!, still no sigh of the curse starting yet.

b. 2 soft boileg eggs
l. Roast chicken breast quarter, tbsp mayo

Afternoon, glad you are feeling better, well done on the down day when feeling miserable ...not eating your feelings, that has to be a great NSV!

Well done atkins and DD seem to be writing you
 
Had a good day, got a nice lip balm gloss from debenhams n some clarins stuff i had run out of. Went to a nice little pub and spent a few hours being given the eye but some gawjus guy, he reminded me of the singer of Mr. Mister back un the 80s. I kept thinking surely there is a nice looking babe sitting behind me, but no he smiled at me and spoke a couple of times, i am still in shock! Good little ego boost i guess the old trout can still almost pull lol i left when he went to the loo so nothing awkward happened.

then went to f&b for a steak. My hands were so cold, they seemed to have no heating on and the loos brrr they never heat them, one of my major bugbears, when men wee its ok for them they can keep their clothes on but we cant and i have freezing cold loos, stingey *******!

got nasty root canal in the morning, then meeting a friend in the afternoon, then bingo with my gay friend in the evening, full day!

food today
b. Half piece king of cakes
l. 3 slices ham
d. King prawn skewer, sirloin steak, mushroom, salad, mayo, 2 cherry toms
 
This Mr Mister? Corrrrrr :D

And good on you for getting some glad eye :)

Good luck for tomorrow - just keep thinking "Bingo!" :D
