Surfhunny's Countdown to Florida

[Surfhunny]

iTunes update complete, windows update in progress, then the dreaded OS update on my iPhone I hope it works perfectly this time!! Not like last time where I ended up with no software at all on my phone. Hope my brother is on standby to bail me out like last time!! If not I may be AWOL for some time!!

 

[great things]

my iphone just died on me! just had to do a hard drive boot. top power button, power and home, then home button. it's broken my mobile dream about me swimming with it and then not been able to use it. i now need to plug it into my mac! away at in laws so not going to be on as much.

 

[Surfhunny]

I've managed to update mine successfully, I've been putting it off for ages because I lost everything last time! But it's done now I'd be lost without it!

8000 calories is probably a birthday cake, a cheesecake and a few bits such as cheddar cheese and nuts! And maybe Danish pastries lol.

I am ashamed to say that I could eat 8000 calories at a sitting, particularly when overwhelmed by the binge monster. By the later stages of the binge I would probably not be in great shape - maybe bursting full and sickly - but I really could do it without too much effort.

Makes you think, doesn't it? About those who eat that much and more every single day. Scary. It can only end badly.

Good morning Sal x

 

[Surfhunny]

I've got so much to do today and absolutely no motivation to do it!! I need to Hoover the whole house and I've been putting it off for days There's various other household chores that need doing, washing pile to tackle, washing up to put away and the car needs washing too.

I hate wasting my days off on housework!! At least it'll stop me thinking about food! And my 5-htp is starting to kick back in again, my cravings for everything savoury seem to have gone away again!!

 

[*Shanny*]

Sal start cracking on.. Try not to waste your day u must catch this hot sun!

It's lovely I'm on my way in town..

Your doing very well on the diet.. Keep going x

Snap! I've just been cutting the grass and I'm knackered now! Still got the hoovering to do.

Never mind. Looking on the bright side I've still got two days off after today. I don't s'pose you have, cos you probably works shifts, don't you?

Hope you get to enjoy at least some of the sunshine!

 

[Surfhunny]

I've abandoned the housework in favour of sitting in the sun!! In theory I have another couple of days off but I'm on call so can't really do much or go far!

Typically as soon as I've come outside the sun has gone in but it's still hot so I'm staying out. And it's good to see that both sets of neighbours have cleaned up their doggy do!!

 

[Surfhunny]

Well sitting outside didnt last long, had about an hour then it started to rain so I came in and tackled the housework, that's all done now.

Got a phone call from work, thought I was being called out but it was just someone asking advice (made me feel special lol).

Now I'm just standing at the back door enjoying our thunderstorm. After sun the thunderstorms are my favourite kind of weather. It reminds me of South Africa and makes me a bit home sick. The only downside to thunderstorms is that the electricity to our village is temperamental and often gets knocked out in storms but so far so good

I need to go to Sainburys to stock up on water but don't want to go just yet and miss my lovely thunder!! Yep I'm crazy lol

 

[Surfhunny]

At work now boo

 

[Surfhunny]

Aaaargh, I've screwed up again!!! I got called out to work earlier, I'd only had one shake, didn't have time to get another before I left, have to be at work within half an hour and I live half an hour away so it's tight anyway.

To make matters worse my on call ended at 7 but it was so so busy with 2 theatres running it left no-one in the department so I couldn't just leave at 7 and go home. I ended up having to stay back until 8:30. I still had to go to the shop after that, so it was 9:30 before I even made it home, by which point I was starving, shaky and I ordered an Indian I only ate a bit of it tho, usually I can polish off the lot but I didn't I was beyond hunger and shouldn't have had it at all.

I'm rubbish with unplanned events like that, even if I'd had a shake in my locker I couldn't have had it because it was just so very busy and it's not the kind of job where you can take yourself off for a break. Oh well here I go again with day 1 tomorrow, better come up with a plan in case I get called out again.

 

[MinnieMel]

Hi Sal,

How about carrying some bars with you? Or even a bag of nuts?

Happy Easter!

MinnieMel

 

[Lily]

Never mind, hun. You didn't really even eat the Indian, so no real harm done, I bet.

I think you need some bars too - you could always eat one of those while driving to work (from experience, I don't recommend drinking a tetra while driving - long story, but I ended up with a lovely brown patch on my trousers and smelt wonderfully of gone-off chocolatey milk for the rest of the day...).

 

[Surfhunny]

Brrr I've just been outside and it's freezing even in the sun!! So I've come back inside it looks so lovely out there too!

Right so here I go again, trying to make it through 1 day on SS+ without going off the rails. I'll wi next Sunday as it's completely pointless doing it today, I'll probably have a gain.

If I could just get past day 1 and then get as far as ketosis I'll be fine, I just seem to come unstuck everyday at the moment

 

[juju_doll]

Hello luv, I'm on day 3 again and in a horrific ketosis headache mood! This bloody diet .... onwards and downwards .... Hope you're ok, one day at a time xx

 

[Surfhunny]

Thanks chick, well done for getting to day 3!!! I wish I was there, I'd take the ketosis headache!!! Pop some painkillers Hun, don't put up with the pain. Xx

 

[*Shanny*]

Right so here I go again, trying to make it through 1 day on SS+ without going off the rails.

you can do it Sal.. in my CD diary booklet from my cd.. each page has a motivation quote underneath.. well cool

So today sal your quote of the day is...

"Instead of aiming to be perfect just
aim to be a little bit better today than you were yesterday.."

 

[Surfhunny]

Ah thats a fab quote!! I always aim to be perfect then get annoyed when I'm not!! So a bit better than yesterday will be good

 

[*Shanny*]

That's the spirit...:hug99::hug99: xx
