Oodles' Weekly Weigh In

I've only had about 1h sleep, but I'm in a great mood today. A four day week and then I'm off for Eurovision! Yes, we take a whole week off. My friend's talking about actually going next year. That is a huge step! I don't want to go to an actual show but I'd like to go to the parties and events around the shows, then perhaps fly home for the final. But we won't go if it's in Russia (the rightful winner), and I don't want to go to Paris (but I want my Amir to win). Come on Serbia!!

Usually we plan our week around local activities - go visiting some landmarks, have a mini holiday, then of course decorate the house and then watch the shows. But this year it's all a bit odd as I will be driving back and forth between my parents' house and my best friend's house, in different counties. The responsibility of being a cat owner! So it all feels slightly disjointed this year.

A new NSV today: I'm rocking the flesh coloured tights. For the first time in what seems like living memory, it's actually going to be warm this week, so my phone tells me! I feel I'm a picture of spring. I haven't actually seen another living person today, or indeed my reflection in a mirror, so I might look a total mess. But I'm somewhat colourful and my legs are officially out. Woop! Good old grey skirt, pink and green top, green cardi. What's odd is that this grey skirt that I wear all the time is feeling a little loose on the waist. Significantly looser than it was last week. Perhaps I have it pulled up a bit (hussy). There is zero way I'm smaller than this time last week as I have eaten so much in between. I look noticeably bigger than I did; I'm convinced. Also the aforementioned hip bones have disappeared again. But my feet are shrinking! Not in size, I will always have massive feet (thanks mum) but I can see the bone reaching from my big toe to my ankle. Skinny foot!
 
I'm with you on the feet thing . I have baggy feet.. And if I was to let my toe hair grow they would be Hobbit feet without a doubt ..:0icanfly:

Your sounding so bubbly Hun it's a joy to read your updates ..
 
I wore the cutest outfit yesterday to work. I felt like a summery princess! It was a blue and green and white patterned linen dress with a white shrug over it. I hope to wear it to dinner on Sunday so I'll bag a photo if possible.

I'm decidedly less bubbly today. I have soooo many meetings to attend (on the phone) next week I might as well cancel my week off. I'm so upset about this!! I refuse to cancel my holiday. In fact I'll just email my new boss to tell him I'm unavailable and they can all deal with it.

I cleared out all the biscuits from my cupboard last night (kept the wotsits, but that's the last thing to go now and if in little bags it's easier to limit myself than having a whole open packet of biscuits nearby) and having a bad food amnesty. All the supernoodles, gone. I even made some jelly to deal with my inevitable sweet tooth craving tonight. It's so weird, I don't crave chocolate, in fact it really doesn't do anything for me anymore. It's so sweet and cloy-y. I want biscuits. And plain sponge cake. Plain digestives or rich teas or custard creams... I want them all. If I can kick this biscuit fetish by not having any in the house (the cake thing is easier as I don't think I've ever had a cake in the house; cakes have always been for special occasions only) I think I'll be ok. My eating otherwise has been good this week: Skyr yoghurts and turkey mince, with the odd Ryvita and Philadelphia and a gherkin and some fruit. I've even been drinking a litre of actual water every night instead of tea and coffee. I still daren't weigh myself after last weekend! I'll wait til I come back after my holiday :)
 
I'm with you on the biscuit front first day with none in but i have seen some individually portioned weight watchers ginger and lemon so might try those defo been my downfall since surgery just to easy to eat xx
 
I don't think I will eat biscuits at all . I'm not sure I would be able to stop until the packet has gone ..
 
I think I am related to the Cookie Monster Niccie lol .. They would disappear down my throat without thinking lol !
 
I have seriously hairy toes if I was to let them grow ! A side affect of Poly cystic doodahhhsss I guess . The extra hair .. Though shaving doesn't help the matter but I'm damned if I'm ever having my toes waxed again ! I'd rather have a baby than go through that pain :)
 
You could have your toes removed!! Long term solution! At least they are not webbed..that would be pretty bad x
 
:banana_dancer:Ah but I'd be a good swimmer :woohoo:
 
Mindy to be honest my big toe has a few hairs too :( sad times.

So! Eurovision week hath begun. We went out for dinner last night to a seafood place, totally gorge. I had kale to start (it must have been dry roasted) then lemon sole which I asked for without sauce. It came with prawns baked into this buttery stuff on top, but to be honest it was a blessing I could scrape it off and leave it to one side as I was worried I wasn't going to eat all the dinner. But I ate about 3/4 of the fish and about three weeny new potatoes. So another success! Then I reeeeeeally wanted a dessert but had a cappuccino instead. And had a sugar free wafer once we got home.

Today we're going to the seaside, which I'm excited about! And tomorrow my best friend's parents are coming over to watch the first semi with us. I've not seen them since the wedding in Dec so I'm sure there will be comments... It'll be reet.

Have a good week all! Oh and when you all inevitably watch the grand final on Saturday, look out for my face on the screens behind the uk act during the first chorus of the song ;)
 
Ah I love time off. Done so much great stuff.

Went to Blackpool, was a bad girl but I allowed myself a holiday day. Had sausage and beans at a fish and chip shop, a calippo on the pier and a slush puppy. I haven't consumed that much sugar since before the op. Also bought some sugar free sweeties. Although I munched quite a few during a meeting on Tuesday and all that sweetener messed with me for the rest of the day!

My best friend's hubby cooked every night so I ate mussels, steak and Indian food but kept away from the carbs. Yesterday had a reminder of my pouch in that we went to an old house and I had hotpot and only managed about half the lamb and nothing else. So it's still there! Also discovered I may have gone off lamb... Previously my favourite meat!

Did very well this morning re: breakfast. My parents went on holiday last night so it's just me and the cat here now (I came home from my friend's last night so I could look after him). They left a whole loaf of white bread but I resisted a fried egg sandwich and had just two eggs on their own. Willpower! I might just have to throw that bread away to remove temptation.

According to my parents' scales I'm now in the 13s and have a BMI under 30 now. Woop! Also totm this week so that explains last week's biscuit fetish. Not felt the need at all this week.

Got the murder mystery tomorrow and I'm so damned excited. I'll post pics once I'm beautified!
 
Can't wait to see the pics ! Sounds like a damn good time all round missy !
Xxxx
 
Wow. Woooop,woooo !
