I only went and bloody did it!!!
I made sure i had everything i needed with me so i had no excuse to not go and ya know what, knowing that i was going to the gym straight from work kinda kept me going and i didn't feel knackered by the end of the day

I am really really pleased that i made the effort and i will definitely make this a regular occurance

Monday is a good day to go as i picked jack up from the theatre when i finished at 7.45 which gave me about a hour and 15 mins there.
Had a good day at work, i was on reception which was a bit dull, i prefer to nurse but covering people who were on holiday.
Oooooh, seeing as you have all commented on it, the black and white photo was taken at Bec's and Dave's wedding last month and it's champagne not wine lol. Jack actually took it! He took some lovely photo's that day actually of really random stuff while just messing around with the camera (he also managed to delete everything too and mark had to download some recovery thing to get them back, bless him)
Cate How can i not show you love
You are extremely lovable 
It is totally awesome what we have here. I can honestly say that i would never have managed to do what i have done without your love and support. FACT!!!!!! I have spend the last 25 years trying and failing to lose weight and you guys have given me what i needed to do it. I really can't put into words how you have changed my life. Love you Xxx
Greg You truly make me blush

and lost for words lol which doesn't happen often lol. Thank you so much, yes, it makes me feel like saying 'shut up' but it is good to hear it from someone who has read all my ups and downs and has also gone thru the same thing and experienced the insecurity etc that i have. I just can't stop that little voice in my head shouting 'OMG that sexy greg said i look gorgeous' lol you make me feel like a blushing teenager

Now i've probably made you blush too lol
My new running 'tights' should come tomorrow.....can wait!!! It's really pathetic how excited i am about it

probably a bit like you and your new treadmill lol
Sarah It's weird, i can't say that i like them but i dont go into total panic mode and delete them anymore, if that makes sence. I have a lot of my life that has no photographic evidence as i deleted every photo of me. I am learning to accept what i look like and i am really trying hard to not be too crytical. I too love the little thing we have going on with MFP it really makes a difference having you guys there to keep me going. I see that you or Cate have done 'under their calories' and it makes me want to do the same. The support you guys give me is just beyond words. It really amazes me that you guys count on my support, my self loathing part can''t stop thinking 'why, what have i done that's of any help' but i know that will make you shout at me so forget i said that lol I'm only to happy to be of any help i can be but you are truly a motivational god in my eyes lol
Jess Aww thank you sweetie

Yeah, it is sooooooooo good being back at the gym, i really have missed it. I was so pleased that i managed it after a days work

i am so back on it. I am gonna get this wobbly body toned if it kills me lol I'm loving being back in the zone, it feels good, i have hated myself recently.
Just wanted to say another huge great big massive Thank you I love you guys, you rock
It's really late now and i'm off to bed in a bit (going to the gym has taken up lots of my evening) so i'll catch up on your diaries tomorrow
