Hello mini friends, I'm doing well resisted temptation of the scales and slowly chugging away at the water :)

My sis has given me a bagful of size 12 and 14 tops and a couple of dresses and they all fit!! To say I am amazed is an understatement, one that they fit and two (for all you peeps who remember the issues I had with my sis) that she even gave them to me lol.

I think it's her way of saying "well done, I am proud of you" :D She just asked, are you in size 14 yet? Then when I said yes, gave me the bag.
I have never been able to share clothes with her and they are lovely. She is now a size 10/12 since she started training for the moonwalk and running. But she's never been more than a 14 anyway. I'm the one who had mum's genes lol.
Poor mum has always battled with her weight.

I feel fab, cold but fab! Lol

Well done Ali... and i have to say that one of the nicest posts in the quote that i have read for a very long time.... so positive and heartfelt xxxxxxxx
 
How's it going Ali? Hope you're having a lovely Easter :)
What a great post about the size 12/14's! I know that things are tricky on that front with your sister so I can appreciate how significant it was for her to pass on those clothes to you. And WOW - a size 12!!! I am nowhere near that yet, but I can't wait!

Thanks Marge! That just put a big smile on my face :D
To be honest, I don't think my head has caught up with the progress yet. I see it in photographs, but mostly when I'm comparing against old ones and I have 'proof' of the difference!
That's probably for the best though, I don't want to get too comfy at this size....I want to join Ali in the size 12/14s ;)

You won't be long Alex. I didn't dream I would fit into the size 12's now but it was worth trying;)
 
Good morning and it's a sunny one so far in West Wales :D

Been a pretty hectic weekend in work and in a way worse than Christmas. One patient's family in particular had hot cross buns or cupcakes ready for us at every visit. I managed to sneak one away every time saying I'd have it later after my tea and took it home so DS was very pleased lol

I have been chugging on the water and black coffee. Been out and about a lot and discovered even more pee break stops in the County :D

Enjoy your day peeps xx
 
Have a good day Ali :)

I'm off the rest of this week to try and get some things sorted in the house - hopefully the builder will be here too, but not sure about that.
 
Forgive me diary for I have strayed!! What IS wrong with me. I get on the wagon, bouncing along quite nicely then BANG!!

I started and didn't stop. I'm not even going to write down what I have eaten for fear of triggering inner cravings AGAIN duh!
I blame Easter, but then again I blamed Christmas, then birthdays etc etc. I must get holidays under control. Thankfully it's a long time til Christmas and my birthday is in October lol

So! I need a new goal. An incentive to stick it out. I have no holidays, occasions or anything coming up this year to motivate me. I like myself for the first time in years but the scales are cruel and put on 4lb already. I know (well I hope) it's glycogen stores but I need to get in the 11's to give me a safe buffer. I refuse to give in and I have ordered another mixed box of shakes. No more porridge for a while and get back on track.

Thank you for listening to my rant, any tips would be gratefully received :)

Now listen up Nursie - you get straight back on that wagon, right now!! :D

The sun is shining, the blossom is out - all is well with the world, and you ARE going to be slim this year!

I have 10 sacks of ginormous clothes going out the door - you have new size 12's to strut your stuff in!


Together, we can do this thing!:)

lol this really made me giggle. Thanks :)
I have had a shake this morning and I have lost count of the decaff coffees.
Need to up my water intake so I've just filled another 1L bottle, hope to have at least 3 today.

Writing down my moan helped me get my head straight too as I can't talk to hubby (he REALLY doesn't understand)
I think I got bored with just choc shakes and porridge!

I still need that goal tho so I might go and find something nice in a charity shop that I can shrink into ;)

:character00182:look out I'm on the wagon, right next to the loo ;)
 
OK! I have had a fab suggestion from my txt buddy Sarah. Her words were 'start a second chapter'! Now why didn't I think of that? lol

I have got over half way and get plenty of compliments about how far I have come etc. I need to focus on how far I still have to go then look back on the whole journey when I get to goal. (Notice I said WHEN I get to goal lol)

I am going to make a second ticker called phase 2 which should keep me motivated to get to my goal.
I haven't moved my ticker for ages as I keep losing and regaining the same 4-6lbs for months. I am maintaining really well at 12st 7 but I need to do this and get to 11st.

Thank you for your help guys xx
