All booked and now on that road of no return

Did a measurement of my waist also .
Well .. Hubby measured his first and loudly said that the bloody tape measure must have been made in China , as it totally measures wrong and no way is he a 45 inch waist :8855: .. Threw it down and stamped on it ! I was laughing so hard it made my belly hurt Hahahaha ! First good laugh since surgery ..

My waist measures 54 inches .. My daughters pigs waists were that when they went to slaughter :rotflmao:

Has anyone been watching Vikings ? Good lord , some of those men !

Have a wonderful day !

I echo the being on holiday, I used to and walk around in black linen pants absolutely chuffing roasting as I daren't and not brave enough to show my legs!
 
I love pigs! X my dietician, taught me when measuring my waist to breathe out, relax, breathe out again, relax more then measure! It would be much smaller without that but I still measure it her way ;)
 
Beep I fully understand that one .. Very similar to me also ..
 
Oh and not appearing on any holidays photos as I was too ashamed of myself!

Hate having photos taken full stop because of my massive double chin and chubby face.
 
Thigh rub ! Yes !
I havnt worn a skirt for over 15 years because of thigh rub ..
I also don't like photos ..
 
I hate the way my clothes clings to every protruding lump, I hate the way my bottom strains to get free from the confines of my ever shrinking jeans, I hate the way I have to avert my eyes from the mirror when I get out of the shower, I hate the way my undulating waves of excess jiggle when I walk.
I have been on so many diets, tried so many things, so many times for so many years, it can hardly believe I have not done something about it.

But the biggest thing I hate; is the way I loathe myself because of my body!

I have friends who struggle with their weight, who tell me how much they hate themselves. I scold the, reminding them they are wonderful and fabulous. Telling them it's who they are that counts, not the packaging. Yet I can't seem to convince myself of this.

I have seen a lot of blogs about losing weight, read a lot of books and articles "Look at me!, This is my before picture and this is my after picture!" "Dear Diary, today I ate only 150 calories! Yippee!"

If all it took to lose weight was to count calories, who the hell would choose to be fat? Who in their right mind would choose a lifetime of self-hatred, trapped in a blubbery prison cell of their own making? Who would choose daily public humiliation as a walking, breathing example of weakness in our society?

Anyway...here I am world, a bloated tick of a human, consuming more of your resources than I have a right to, hating myself for doing it, hating myself because I can't seem to stop doing it, hating myself because I hate myself so much. Ahhh the beautiful cycle of life.

God I hate being fat.
 
Oh lovely Gemma
There are plenty of other human beings who are really not worthy of breathing the same air and even calling themslf human .. You are not one of them , don't ever think that ..
Being fat is not the worst thing you can be , there are so many more .
You are worthy , you are vibrant

Blossom , don't blame me if you get obsessed with Vikings ! Hehehe

Morning losers !
What a stunning day down here in the south .. It's a beautiful spring morning .. I'm seriously thinking of dragging the bike out of the shed and see how I get on ( or off it )
Last time I rode it , my right knee would not do a complete circuit turn on the peddle and I was half peddling along ..
The Navigation Walk near me , runs from Winchester right through to Southampton water front . It's so beautiful , and runs along a river all the way .. Most of it has been made into proper path ways now , as it had a lot of damage due the flooding over the years , so most of it is perfect for a bike .. Hopefully this summer I will get to ride the whole length of the trail and drag hubby along with me !
There is another beautiful trail not far from me in Wickham. , that runs all the way through to Alton along a disused railway track . That's lovely and flat and easy on the rump ! Plus a few very very nice pubs along the way ..
But my favourite trail is just the other side of Romsey and runs though to Stockbridge , not a long trail , I think it's about 7 miles each way along an old rail line .. It is so beautiful in spring , it's covered in primroses and bluebells and lambs ! And you cross over old wooden bridges with crystal clear tinkling water underneath , running over rocks and weeds with trout gently swaying in the slow flowing currents .. Then at Stockbridge after the smooth ride there is a fabulous cafe for a cuppa where you can sit outside by a tiny running brook full of brown trout .. Idyllic ..
I'm determined this year to do these trails again .. Even if I have to put a cushion under me bum !
Got the day to myself today as hubby has to work :( .. so I'm at a bit of a loss ..

Pftttt ! Guess who has the shed key then ! Yep .. His lordship has .. Oh well not today then .. Will go for a shuffle around the garden then ..

Later taters !

OMG i can see it all :) can i come??? i'd love to go cycle ridding.....one of those nice vintage looking bikes with baskets filled with freshly picked flowers and a basket on back with the picnic hamper in it LOL oooooooh heavenly :)

Its the most amazing feeling when you suddenly begin to achieve things you never even dreamed could happen.... we went to the local woods yesterday.... we passed 'the bench' the one i always sat upon looking longingly down the path further, saying one day !!! :) am now that's all a distant memory and the reality is I CAN..... and so will you sweetness x x x

HAve a great x x x x
 
Oh I love those bikes crystal !
They have a peppermint green one in Halfords that I've got my eye on .. Hubby says as soon as I am ready to ride again properly then it will be my first treat !
Today I feel like I can achieve anything to be honest . The future looks good and I am feeling positive ..
But slowly does it until my knees can cope . The. Ire I lose the better my knees ..
I'm hoping to be 19 stone by October .. So that's 4 stone and 7lbs to go , And a total of 6 stone 7 lbs lost ..
Think that's achievable ?
I'm going to set that as my mini goal ..

You will make it I am sure Mindy.
 
Anything is achievable Mindy when your so set on it :) reach for those stars hunni ..... we went to look at bikes and hub was eager to buy me one BUT not really the places to ride here, not off road really unless its round the cliff tops LOL there is a disused rail track which has since become a cycle path BUT we'd have to drive a fair way to get to it......

One day :)

Enjoy the garden... i've been weeding mine while hubby cooked a nice roast YUMMY :)
 
Crystal .. You live down West Country ?
If you do, then The Camel Trail is magnificent ! Runs from Bodmin down to Padstow ..
I'm gonna do that one again some day :)
