Feeling much better today thanks x got it out of my system and what will be will be.
Only managed to get the gym once this week but have been cleaning the house like mad in prep for my sisters and parents coming over to mine at the weekend. Nothing like a visit from your mum to get the spring cleaning in action
Got a couple of busy weekends ahead with family over this weekend and my daughter's 9th birthday party next weekend... 16 girls at home I need to entertain for 3 hours I don't know what I was thinking.
Mindy I applaud you for wanting to help your daughter... it was only when my mum suggested the gb that i even considered it and she even paid for half to get me to do it as the only thing holding me back was the money aspect of it. Having support and guidance around you is half the battle x
I've discovered these noddles called ilumi, they're 245cals and have 0.4g of fats/5.2g of protein per pot and are so filling, I can manage about a third of a pot and I'm full. That's my lunch sorted for today and I think I'll go for chicken breast for dinner with a nice avocado salad
Hope you're all having a great day x

Hellloooo everyone! Sorry haven't been on here for a couple of days, been having a bit of a hectic time and to be honest my eating hasn't been the best either which makes me feel sad and ashamed. I know we all have ups and downs, I haven't put any weight on, or been eating really badly, but I just havent been focused because I had so much to do! Anyway, I went food shopping last night so now I'm back in the zone! My boyfriend is being sent away to work from mon-fri next week, then we are off to a hotel near stansted on saturday night and off to portugal on the sunday so I REAAALLLLY want to get my eating straight this week! My students have a huge deadline on the 7th so i'll be at college everyday helping them with one on ones (bloody needy so and sos ). Sorry for the down post but was just so on track and then life got the better of me for a few days! Made me smile reading through these posts and so so glad Blossom that you are doing so well, and Neticak, nice pictures! you look much happier and slimmer already!
Crystal your jewellery is really lovely.. do you sell it online? I havent done much today, me and my bf watched Chicago which was nice.
Mindy, your post really struck a chord with me. I was never that big but at around 23 stone I really couldn't imagine that anyone found me attractive, even when they generally did and that too lead me to putting up with a lot of crap which I would never put up with now! It was my own mum who suggested and then paid for me to get the band and I have to say at first I was so offended because I was seriously in denial, then I spent days and nights on here and I can never thank her enough for suggesting and paying for it for me, I will always be grateful. I often sit down and just think about how much I would weigh now if I hadnt got my band and how many years i must have put back on to my life by my weightloss. I think your daughter sounds very lucky to have you, just think of all the support and advice you will be able to give her when she starts her own weightloss!
Sounds weird but I really missed coming on here. It was literally like two days ago but I think this forum is really helpful in maintaining normality when youre on a weightoss mission!
Hope youre all well

I actually had a roast dinner today .. I could not resist it .. I had wanted to eat in this particular pub for a while now .. The Bath Arms at Horningsham ..
My daughter and I shared a free range whole chicken roast for 2 . Omg the chicken was so good , I ate both legs as I prefer leg meat , I had 1 roast potato , pickled red cabbage , cauliflower cheese , cabbage and gravy ..
Chewed small amount slowly and had plenty of gravy .. Handled it all perfectly . I needed this meal let me tell you lol ..
I didn't drink anything , not even water . But ... I did have a dessert , but because this is a boutique hotel the portions are small and it was laid out in single persons on a large plate . I had sticky toffee pudding with stout ice cream with a homemade walnut whip on the side ... I didn't eat the whip though , but I ate all the ice cream and half the pudding ..
It was a little bit of heaven ..
That's all I have eaten today as I didn't want to,push it any further and I don't feel the need to eat anything else ..
She sprung a surprise on us also . She has had her eye on this 17th century cottage for a little while , it's a proper postcard , rose front thatched cottage , in need of full renovation .as it been empty for over 5 years and not been touched for well over 50 years before that I guess .. It's owned by her boss , and he's given her first refusal on it , as he only wanted the land behind it when it became empty , hence it been left for 5 years ..
She had the keys and we went to look around it . Wow .. It's damp , cold , full of cobwebs and spiders , but magical ..
Should find out by the end of the week if she can and her partner can mortgage it .. I hope so , as she would just be so happy to get her teeth into something like this and so will I when I can get down there !
On a sad note though , this morning her beautiful , beautiful big fat fluffy cat , Weazel , was found dead on the road , which is up the top of the long drive way . He was just the most beautiful cat , large as a Maine coon and as fluffy .. So sad and she is heartbroken ..
Animals I think can break your heart like nothing else on earth ..

Hi everyone I'm messaging from the campsite...We are all happy campers!!
Sorry to hear about your daughters cat but nevertheless very excited by the cottage. Renovating properties is my absolute passion and I can just see the roses climbing the walls already...how exciting. Fingers crossed with the mortgage x x x
Well Mindy you've just woken up every single taste bud in my mouth. The food you've had today sounds mouth watering. So glad you enjoyed it x x x
As we are at the seaside I've been surrounded by the smell of fish and chips and donuts! I had mushy peas, mushed fish and gravy at lunch. It was heaven!
Just had jacket potato, cheese with loads and salad cream.
How funny...A few years ago I'd be on a bottle of wine by now and def a pudding of huge measures and here I am watching my daughter and OH play pool feeling like I've just had Christmas lunch!!!!
Love to you all x x x x

Super cute shoes Blossom !
Just seen this yummy recipe on Facebook ..
http://www.delish.com/cooking/recipe-ideas/recipes/a46832/cauliflower-hashbrown-egg-cups/
High protein , low fat . Perfect ..
Thank you Neticat ..
We bought him as a suprise gift for daughter when she moved about 6yrs ago .. She cried as soon as she laid eyes on him and instantly bonded . He slept tucked up in her jumper like a baby kangaroo for about 2 months until he became to big for her carry him around . I bet he weighed the best part of 15lbs so he was a big boy .. If he decided to lay on you , you knew it . He would place his butt in your lap and face upwards with his paws around your neck and run away at your chin with his head .. Such a shame .. This is him ..
But enough sadness !
Tomorrow is weighing day ! Yeahhhh rofllll .. Boots scales here we come !
Oh and I'm planning on making some homemade piccalilli .. Had a small amount of homemade piccalilli at the pub today when hubby and daughter had a hand raised pork pie . Omg it was yummy ! So thought I'd have a go at it .. Found a BBC recipe that included pears !
