Surfhunny's Countdown to Florida

So chuffed for you Surf, I downloaded a hypno app last night. One by Darren Marks? I listened to the 3 minutes intro, then put the main on and dont even remember my head hitting the pillow?! The only thing I remember is 'imagine you are releasing the stress through your head' and imagine all the nerves are releasing the stress' or something along those lines. That was it?!

Will continue to listen, how long do they say it takes to begin kicking in? Is it 3 weeks or something like that? I'm completely sceptical, but we'll see.

Haha, you're snidy manager needs putting down a peg or two me thinks!
 
Mums got the Defoe one and I think mine is Andrew Collins. I manage to get through the induction bit then zzzzzzzzzz I hear nothing, remember nothing lol. But apparently thats the idea and it all works at a subconscious level. They reckon about 3 weeks to really see effects, I'm not hurting anyone with it, I'm not losing money or anything, so I'm just going to keep going, I get a damn good nights sleep and feel really relaxed so we'll see :)

It feels very weird concentrating on myself this much, it feels very indulgent. But maybe if I'd paid more attention to myself in the past instead of believing I was a waste of space I wouldn't be in this mess now!!! Project Me is very much underway!! I like it, I'm like my own little clinical trial lol ;)

I'm going to go and read some Carr.... Ooh but first plan for tomorrow:

Fruits of forest shake
1.5 litres water
Lemon Bar
1.5 litres water
Choc mint shake
Can Dr Pepper zero
120g chicken (if I want it)
 
I never got the people who used to spend the evening doing their nails or having a facial etc, I was always too busy running around for others people or tending to animals etc. But those kind of people are usually slim and look after themselves in all aspects. Maybe there is something to being a bit vain and it isn't as selfish as I maybe thought it was.

Maybe that's why food is my treat, because I don't know any other way to indulge myself?

Calfs are killing by the way!

Maybe you've just hit the nail on the head!!! We need "me time" minus the food!!! I might buy some face packs and pampery bits tomorrow and treat myself to a spa at my house.... Oooooh and I'll borrow my mummy's babylis bath spa bubble maker thingymajig!! Hmmmm why in my mind did I automatically include fizzy wine into that equation??? Baaaad Sally (at least chocolate didn't feature lol - progress)
 
Progress indeed! :)
 
I think Kez is right --

It does seem as if thin people take better care of themselves (over all).
Chicken and egg thing?
Taking care of oneself comes first then being fit and attractive -- or -- because you are fit and attractive you take care of yourself to preserved it. Hummmmm.

I hope you two go and get some pampery things. And, Sal, definiately use that new bath with some lovely Lush products or the like!

MM
 
This morning my tummy is gurgling and rumbling something chronic. I'm not even hungry, have had breakfast etc so I don't know what the problem is!?!? But it's very annoying!!!!

I'm just reading Carr now, I'm still a bit sceptical about his claims but if his smoking book has worked for everyone I know that's read it then really there's no reason this shouldn't work either right?
 
Hmmm so far I'm not sure what I think of Carr, it's very waffly and I'm easily distracted from it but maybe that's because I haven't got down to the nitty gritty yet (I hope). I think I've got such high expectations of this book, because of the success people have had with the smoking book.

I've put it down for now, distracted by the Wizard of Oz, one of my favourite films :D
 
I think I like Carr better than beck. I stopped reading beck when I dragged out Carr. Maybe that's his style, waffly, might be why it works. Maybe it's also a subconscious thing!

I never hear my hypnotherapy app. I'm too fast asleep. I hear the first bit bout relaxing then I've gone.
 
My app is hypnoslim. It also says 3 weeks too.
 
Mines Andrew Parkinson. Just had to have a look :)

I've started taking more care of how I look. New hair cut and colour then there's a facial and eye lash tint at saks once a month. Loads of exercise and I even put a bit of eyeshadow on occasionally if I really feel like it. It's a 5 min job but still it looks good.
 
I'm STILL waiting fir thus damn toilet roll holder to arrive!! Apparently it's on the delivery van, I'm going to have to put off buying my pampery bits until tomorrow unless it turns up in the next hour or so.

With Carr I'm still at the Creator bit, I think once I'm past all that evolution, god, creation bit it'll be okay.
 
The infamous toilet roll holder has arrived!!!!! I'm off to get pamper things!!

Is that it? What on earth took so long to get it? Did they have to mine for it, for the raw materials?

Just back from rango. Hubbys birthday today so he took this pm off work and I managed to get dude in to nursery for the pm session. Good movie but I don't think Ems was impressed. She got bored when her sweets ran out.
 
Ha ha exactly, they were chopping down the tree and starting Corus back up for the stainless steel, BUT it's here now and bathroom is all complete!!

Been out to get some nice things, bought some mud packs, some bubble bath, body scrub etc so I'll be having a nice pamper day tomorrow!
 
oooo :D LIKE! now i feel like i want one. i must do something nice like that when we get paid next, only 2 weeks to wait.......:eek:
 
I totally deserve the pamper day, that toilet roll holder was a b@st@rd to put up!! I'm still not convinced it's all that secure either :(

Going for a nice bath with new bubble bath to relax, my stomach is still gurgling away and I've had all my packs, and a 2 medium egg omelette. I don't feel hungry now but the noise is annoying. Going to have a long bath and read Carr! :D
 
Aaargh, I'm so desperate for Carr to work for me but I'm becoming less convinced... Eat natural food, fruit, veg and nuts??? No chance mate!! I'm a fussy b*gger and only like certain fruit and veg, so limiting me to fresh (not frozen) peas, butternut squash, parsnips, leaks, onions, apples, grapes, blueberries, pomegranate, pears and nuts is a sure fire way to send me screaming to the biscuit tin!

That can't be the answer surely?? I'll have to read on just to see... I think by now I should be won over but I'm not and I'm disappointed :( Am I being unrealistic, I wonder?
 
My tummy has been grumbling but not hungry too ... weirdo Friday!! Hope things are going well, just got my Beck book today so off to read the first couple of chapters. Like the idea of a task every day!
