Slimpip's Sleeve Jan'14

Fantastic news :) well done. I'm stuck for last couple of months at 4.5 stone x
 
Thanks everyone. Literally just got home from work. It's been an incredibly tough week!! But...I have that Friday feeling and I have a weekend of nothingness ahead :)

I'm pleased with my steady losses, some really good weeks, other mediocre weeks, all balances out in the end!

Ali 4.5stones is almightily impressive!!! Well done you!!! x
 
Happy Wednesday everyone. Weigh in day again...-2lbs this week. Happy with that, knew the big losses couldn't last haha. For some reason my ticker won't update which is a bummer, will try and later or tomorrow but my loss makes it 87lbs. Seems nuts, in a stones time I will have lost over 100lbs eeeeeek!!!! Come on stone...get off my hips and thighs! x
 
Woohoo!! You've done AMAZING! So proud of you! :D
 
Thanks Jenna hun!!! I'm a bit bummed about something but I'm sure I'm overreacting. My best friend messaged me yesterday asking if me and my other half would like to go to the cinema tonight with her and hers. Of course I said yes, and was really looking forward to it. Then a few days ago she messaged me again saying her other half had mentioned it to his group of friends and how did we fancy going for a meal before hand then a film, with them and 20 others. Well at this point I was a bit miffed, it was supposed to be the four of us, now we'd feel like we were tagging along with their group. So, as we are trying to pay off some debt and were only going to the cinema because it's 241, I said no but maybe we could meet them afterwards. Then, they basically said that the group had ordered their tickets so if we ordered ours, we wouldn't be sat next to them. So at this point I sacked it off as I basically felt they had totally changed our original plans and almost felt they didn't really want us to go anymore.

So my other half made other plans, he's gone canoeing tonight, GREAT for me. I have some work to do and can just chill out a bit. Then a text comes through from her husband while I'm sat here watching tv saying...we have a spare ticket, someone didn't turn up, do you want it? I texted back saying aww thanks, yeah that'd be awesome, I'll just get ready. So I do, and I'm halfway down the street (the cinema is a 10min walk away) and I get a text...STOPPPPP, sorry the ticket was refunded, I didn't realise. Sorry.

So in the middle of my street I have to turn around and go home. Am I justified in feeling a bit upset??? Probably not, but I am! xxx
 
Not only are you justified, but I'd seriously be thinking twice before accepting an invite from their direction next time or two! I always had friends like that and I always felt like if 'I' changed or didn't say anything they'd start to treat me like their other friends, but it never happened. Say something if it bothered you. Even if it's just to tell your friend that you were really looking forward to having it be an intimate double date and having the plans change like that not only ended up putting you in an awkward situation, but you also felt it robbed you of some friend time. (Or however it actually made you feel.) Not saying anything means she may not even realise the weird situation it put you in.
 
Thanks Jen, the thing is I don't think it is her, it's him. I like him on the whole but he is a very domineering character and I think he decided he wanted to go with his friends and that was that, plans changed. I do feel a bit hurt by it, but she's been through such a lot lately (she's the one with bulimia and fertility issues) that I just think I would be adding to her stress. I won't say anything, but I'll definitely rethink making plans that involve him in the future :( X
 
Sad, but probably the best of the options. The more times these things happen the worse you end up feeling to the point you end up avoiding said friend. :(
 
First of all big congrats on the loss Hun :)
Now down to your friend it sounds to me like she really wanted to spend time with you and her partner changed her mind for her....just hate when they can't control situations when men are wanting to rule the world ( well domineering ones I should say) he knew that you would have made an effort to get ready and go so what he did was out of order. He should have just left it alone. I really feel for your friend as having any eating disorder is hard and I should know, and I'm glad you won't mention it but if she asks then be honest with her because she won't feel good if she thinks you're hiding things. You are a true friend to care how she feels Hun. Well done you. X
 
Thanks Cupid. I did message her today but I just said I was a bit gutted about it, not that I was miffed. Like I said, I don't want to add to her stresses. She's the kindest, sweetest person you could ever hope to meet. I think with everything that's gone on in her life of late, he has just swooped in and taken control of everything, which she probably needed at the time, but I hope she finds her way back out of it so I can have my best friend back!!!

TGIF tomorrow, jeeeez what a week. Not sure if I mentioned it already but me, my mum and the dog are driving down to London on Saturday morning to stay overnight with my brother as he's just bought a new house. I can't wait for some peaceful family time! X
 
Sounds nice! We're off to Norfolk with the dog for the weekend... hopefully it'll be relaxing. ;) ENJOY!
 
You too hunny xx
 
Just a thought and I know there are some bad ones but try not let the dog drive for too long it's exhausting poor thing ;)

We'll make a few stops, but she needs to learn to pull her own weight! ;)
 
I had to re-read that then! You two are too funny x
 
congrats on the loss slim as for the friend if her fella is that domineering i would stay clear for a couple of weeks until things die down again then try and make a double date and see what happens
 
Thanks for that advice princess. My friend texted me yesterday and asked if I wanted to do something on Thursday, so I will. I really don't have the energy to cause any sort of drama, it's not really my style lol.

I just wanted to share an NSV with you. I tried on my mum's entire size 18 wardrobe and it all fit, even the next work trousers (no give). The tailored dresses didn't look good as my spare tyre is not yet ready to be shown off haha. But they fit and they WILL look nice in a short while. The silk dress that was one of my initial goals fit with ease. I am so happy right now. I've eaten crap this weekend but it's a very rare occasion and I had a lovely family weekend in London, visiting my brother at his new house.

Hope you've all had a nice weekend xxx
