It is a lovely feeling yeah and I have a sneaky admission I'm afraid...I weighed this morning. I'm sorrrrrrrry, I'm so weak haha. Hope you're not mad!! Official weigh in is tomorrow though, I'm not ready for not weighing. I feel like a naughty kid haha.

I am an open person in a situation like this, but I've learnt from past mistakes in over sharing at work. My colleagues know as little as possible about me. It's lovely to have some close friends on here though because we are all sharing very similar situations and can offer support that other family and friends just can't.

Just thrown a strop with the other half. He is so placid most of the time and then he just snaps over something really stupid. He doesn't mean anything by it but I have to teach him a lesson don't I? I do the silent treatment really well, he's scarpered off upstairs now but I'm sat down here giggling. Aren't I mean? X

*shocked horror* YOU WEIGHED YOURSELF?! *sniff* I can't believe this!
Now I get to weigh-in on Sunday! Woohoo! I'm dying to know if I've lost anything.

My work colleagues have already started rumors about why I was gone and why I'm now losing weight, and I have nothing to hide so I just told them. I don't really care what they think anyway and a majority of the time I'm on my own (well as 'on my own' as I can be working in a prison). They can judge me all they want and it won't bother me a tish. They're neither my family, nor my friends and since I don't care what my family or friends think either, there's no point in hiding it (for me).

I don't do so well with the silent treatment... In this house it could go on for DAYS and I like my hubby too much to not speak for that long.

oh Jenna were two peas in a pod then i open my mouth before i put my brain in gear most times and like am not private at all, your right it scares alot of people away but i figure those who can accept me for me are worth having around
i waffle for England some days and am quiet others but always try to be upbeat and positive so Yay!!! I love having buddies

I completely agree! I miss kindred spirits.

Hey Pip dont beat yourself up about getting on the scales LOL i couldn't last the week and had a sneeky peek earlier this week!!! Just remember a loss is a loss no matter how small, its all in the right direction and 14 of those wee ones make a stone I think we've got to accept a slowing down after the first couple of weeks being good, give our body's time to settle down and get over the shock, then hopefully it will be slow and steady all the way down.

I agree with this whole heartedly!!! It's always the turtle that wins in the end.

Pmsl....it's the tortoise lol lol xx

Pmsl....it's the tortoise lol lol xx

Nope cause I never run races near the sea/ocean so mine are always fresh water turtles.

 

[Crystalrainbow]

LOL

Haha girls, I've just logged on to find a very surreal conversation going on about turtles, you nutters. Jenna, that's the reason I told everyone, it's not that I care but I thought, they'd soon see the weight dropping off so would guess anyway seeing as they've seen me try umpteen diets in the last 2 years and only get bigger!

Yes my willpower is terrible but I'm coming to terms with my small losses, I'm just hopeful that random parts of my body are shrinking instead, maybe a cankle?? Haha. I've had to fasten my bras on the middle or tight hook rather that the loosest ones, so there you go, perhaps it was back fat!

Last night we went to watch Dallas Buyers Club with another couple. What a film!! Incredible acting by both Matthew Mcconaughey and Jared Leto (frontman of my fave band 30 seconds to mars) and an amazing true story. Although I would say, if anyone fancies Jared Leto (like me) and want to continue to do so...do not watch this film lol. He plays a cross dressing, aids infected gay man...it's not his best look that's all I can say.

We went for drinks after, I had an orange juice which was lovely and managed the whole (tall) glass without feeling like I'd had a whole load of sugar which was good. Then after we were feeling a bit naughty and went to a takeaway, I got some chicken nuggets and could only manage 3 but they were scrummy and just made me feel normal!

Go figure, this morning I'm 1lb down!! Who flipping knows what this sleeve wants lol, X

 

[JennaMeri]

I wish I knew what mine wanted! I weighed this morning (not official day, but I missed last Sunday) and I've gained 2lbs!
Yay you for losing though! One pound is still one less for later.

 

[xkirsty88]

I found that from August to November (not an amazing time) I ate a LOT of Ben and Jerry's and drank a LOT of toffee apple cider, but I found that I lost more and also didn't go to the gym much as I was I'll a lot then... It's so stupid and not recommended but that's not something that will be happening now!!! Well done on the extra 1lb!! I've lost 3.5lb in the last 9 days xx

[slimpip]

Kirsty that's a good loss! Well, better than me anyway haha. Jenna, a gain?? What the actual heck? How you feeling? X

Not feeling too thrilled to be honest. :sigh: Though it could have just been TOM's leaving gift... *grumble* So, I may get a loss come Sunday (which is weigh day). Today I spent about 6 hours cleaning the house (it desperately needed it), so I figure that has to count as quite a bit of exercise as it was seriously 6 hours straight, even ate while I mopped the kitchen/utility! If I haven't had a significant loss (as in 2lbs or more) I'm going to go back to basics and only eat a little bit so that I have lots of time to drink more.

Hope your day has been a nice one!

Hey I've had a weird day today as it goes. Porridge for brekkie as usual, a fish cake for lunch (had it for tea last night so wasn't that) and then started to feel really bizarre. I came home, went straight to the toilet (sorry) and then slept (as in coma) for 4 hours. Felt fine once I came round but very bizarre thing to have happened!

Jenna I do hope on Sunday it will have righted itself. I've been upping my intake this week just to see if that's been the issue, then next week I think I will go back to basics also, maybe my body just needs a shake up??

Kirsty...fingers crossed x

Bizarre indeed! Glad you felt better after a sleep though. I know that my body always gets used to things quickly so a shake up is in order for me. Hope you're feeling alright today.

 

[wenny]

sounds like the fish cake I was the same with highlights hot choc realy odd you can have it one day but not the next x

 

[slimpip]

Hey ladies, I'm just checking in. Had a nice chilled day today, did some food shopping, cleaning and made a shepherds pie with mint mash topping (yum). Nothing much to report except that I only have 1 day of leave left before going back to work. I am sooo sad about this. I've really enjoyed being off and getting to know my new self and my sleeve, but perhaps getting back into a full time work routine will be a good thing? I'll just keep telling myself that x

 

[wenny]

do you feel ready to go back to work ? I am def not fit enough but miss work greatly what do u do ? well I lost a stone in 2 weeks so I am chuffed hope you get on ok at work let us no how things go x
