AEveryone 
Japer Thats the trouble, after a week of eating badly you just lose your food guilt and don't care any more. And its really hard to change your mindset back into healthy mode.
I only had 1200 calories today, and I am feeling super mega extremely god-damn happy with myself!!!!! And no hunger either!!!
I did pinch three of Nicks chips earlier on, didn't strip naked while I was eating them, but I did lift up my top and examine my blubbery tummy in the mirror lol. He brought me back a huge bar of chocolate from the shop and I had no choice but to mock beat him up with it, then I told him to eat it before I could have any. I talked myself into having just three squares of it, but luckily he had eaten it by then.
Think I will photograph everything I eat including breakfasts and put them on here every 2/3 days in a collage.

AIt is strange how our bodies and appetites work isn't it.
Just a quickie as I am zonked.... Did well in terms of calories, but had a bit of a bad dinner, but that's because I was starving, we have no food in, and Charlie wouldn't let me finish cutting his hair, and there was no way I was taking him to the shops like that. I dread to think what his school are going to think tomorrow
Wrote a to-do list today and DID things on it
Lost 4 pounds according to the scales!

Four pounds is really great!!!
As for your boy...maybe the teachers will think he was attacked on his way to school by a gang of angy mice who nibbled a bit of his hair off? Well...maybe not. Never mind.
Also- I had to LOL a bit when I saw the EIGHT coffees in your food diary. My friends think that I drink a lot of coffee....but you are far worse than me, girl!!
But hey- it's those low-cal indulgences that get us through the day sometimes. Amirite?

AAh, Rox, he gets the school bus so I couldn't even use that as an excuse! Its just a few inches around his ears that needs to be cut, he hates his ears being touched arrgghhh. Youareindeed right I tried drinking diet coke instaed but its not the same! Just love having a fag and coffee together. Tis nice. Thinking about maybe trying to get in a couple of green teas a day tho.
Princess I was like that yesterday after the chocolate situation, all I could think about was that. I think you should plan to treat yourself on the weekend with something small but scrummilicious, like a gu chocolate pud. My theory is, treats are sort of okay when planned, but never okay on impulse.
Well, fuck me, sailor, I have done nothing all day but paint and sand and caulk and I am ex-bloody-sausted. Just need to do a few hours of wallpapering tomorrow, and paint my dining room floorboards, then I will be FINALLY done! So much for time off eh?
I just weighed myself again, and I am still 12 stone 3! (171 pounds, 77.5 kilo's), thought that maybe it would creep up towards the end of the day, so I am chuffed with that!
Got my jeans through the post today and they have sent the wrong size! Its a 30 waist, which is size 12. Boohissss. But on the plus side they are really nice, even if there is mammoth fat overspillage. So I think I will just have to buy myself another goal outfit.

A I had a brilliant food day yesterday, but tonight it has gone a bit pear shaped eeeeekkkk.
But, as I was ordering the pizza, I was feeling diet strong, while I was eating the pizza I felt diet strong, and now that the pizza has gone, I STILL feel diet strong! Lol. Nicks mate came round this afternoon to fit some carpets and lino, and Nick went out for "One drink" with him, and asked me what I wanted for dinner so he could buy it on the way back as we have nothing in. So I told him to get the ingredients for a tuna nicose salad for us and a tin of tomatoes for a pasta sauce for the kids. A few hours ticked by, and it was half 8 and he still wasn't home, and I thought that I can't drag the kids to the shops at this time of the evening cos its bedtime! I had told lily we were having her favourite, pasta (What a boring favourite?!), and the only place that does it is pizza hut. I was completely starving. So I got it. I have also been going out of my mind for a fag all evening. Wish he'd just said in the first place he would be going out. Fuckwit. I bought a film on pay per view as retribution lol. I always did that
I have decided that I am going to get a boob job and tummy tuck and my eyelids done in Prague in January. I paid for my cheeks with two student loan installments plus a bit extra, and tummy, boobs and eyes and flights cost the same as just my cheeks, which is ker-azzzzy! So, here's my plan- Lose 15 pound in the next two months which will make me happily slimish. Then in June I am going to get a four month gym membership over my summer holidays, and I shall get fit. Then I will only have two months before I get it done, and hopefully I will be in the best shape of my life and be able to go on a fabulous holiday next summer, and be able to saunter round in a bikini (BIKINI!), unashamedly That's all I want. To wear a bikini!
This is going to be my goal dress... I think its a lovely mix of innocent and sexy (Material is slightly sheer so you can see your leg outlines)

AIt must be curse of the pizza this week!! O well its the weekend and tomorrow is a new week.
I have been slowing researching a tummy tuck too......its so expensive tho....like 5 to 10 thousand usa dollars depend on how much is done and with 2 high schoolers and college not to far off...I don't know if I could swing it.
Have you ever had stomach surgery? I know it was hell with my hysterectomy in '09....and that was only a 2 in scar! I wonder what the recovery time is on a tummy tuck?

AIm sorry, but Im not liking the idea of making ur boobs done or tummy tuck.. or eyelids done. And even less when Im hearing you would make them happen in Prague. Im so pissed off about people looking for easier way to happiness. Plastic surgery isnt it. PLUS it is fucking dangerous Ruthie! I know a story about woman who went to make her boobs done in Latvija, everything was supposed to go well, she was young, happy and healthy. All she wanted was bigger boobs, but guess what happened? When surgeon was operating they had complications, she stopped breathing and when brains are too long without oxygen it makes damage. So this woman became so called "vegetable". She is alive, can open her eyes and breathe but thats it. Noone knows can she understand but she cant talk or show her feelings. Absolutely terrible destiny. Im telling you as a nurse that do not put yourself into those plastic surgeries, please. You've young kids and they need you, dont take any risks if you may lose your life! You have to find another way to happiness. And Im not trying to be rude to you, I dont want to insult you. I just know that surgery is always surgery. A huuuuuge encumbrance to body, anything can happen.
So you better think carefully young lady.

AHello my lovely
I am so sorry i haven't been onyour diary for ages, i've got 13 posts to catch up on!!!! So i will comment as i go along
Lovin' the fact that you beat Nick with a bar of chocolate. Mark made a point of noisily eating cake in from of me, instead of shouting at him i should have shushed it all over his face lol
Yay on the 4lb loss!!!!! Well done you
The jeans can be an interim goal and you can then move onto another goal
I am not gonna comment on your choice of surgery as it is your decision and you will do what you need to do. I hate my boobs and tummy too and would get them done if money was not an issue BUT I am lucky that Mark is lovin' my new body and has said that he doesn't want me to have a boob job as he prefers natural one's. My mum has offered to help towards a tummy tuck and i will think about it but only when i have saved enough money for it and i am at a weight i am happy with and have stayed there for 6-12 months. I said i wasn't gonna comment and then i did lol whoops!!!!
Anyway, i am up to date now, i aim to keep up, sorry for neglecting you sexy, Oooooh, love the dress by the way, very sexy

First of all, I adore your goal dress and I know you will look really smashing in it! So floaty and summery!!
As for your surgery plans... I know you'll be wise and weigh the risks and benefits.
I am of two minds on this issue. (not that you've asked for opinuions, but you can take or leave my comments as you wish, of course!)
What Eerika said is right- it's not risk-free and you do have your little darlings to think of.
On the other hand, I know loads of people that have had cosmetic surgery and are super-happy with their results! My own mum has had lots of work done (after losing over 100 lbs!) and she looks and feels great even 20 years later. And now she's thinking of having a full face and neck lift done (in Chicago). And I would never tell her not to do it!! She knows the risks, but it's her choice!
And btw- if I had the money, I would SO get a breast augmentation!! Mine are so tiny and sad.
At any rate...it gives food for thought.
Speaking of food- watch out for pizza and keep thinking of bikinis, Ruthie-girl!! :biggrin:

AHeloooooo! Well, I haven't been doing too fabulously if I am honest eeek.
Right at the beginning of my diary, I said that the reason I am finally going on this diet and losing weight is because my debts were under control, my house was nearly sorted (even tho I've been too lazy to finish decorating till now lol), and I would have enough money to be able to save for a tummy tuck. It was that thought, that at the end of all my hard dieting work I would actually have a presentable figure that kept me going. I have wanted a tummy tuck since I was 20. I have been looking at before and after photos on the net, and I can't find one single before tummy photo that is as bad as mine was when I was twenty. I didn't even have a belly button when I could fit into size 8 clothes, just this disgusting mass of wrinkled skin that fell into four flaps around it. My tummy is bad now, but I know the more weight I lose, the worse its going to get.
I have had lots of anaesthetics before for ear operations, and my cheeks, so I know that its not likely I am going to die because of that. I have found a brilliant surgeon called Dr. Cerna, the web is filled with nothing but nice things about her, her results are fabulous as well. She won't do more than one operation at once, because she said that the healing time for each procedure seems to take longer, because the body has only so much healing capacity. And that makes me respect her even more, so even though I would ideally like both ops done together, I think that I will get my tummy done in January, then my boobs can wait till the summer. And the price is only £1746. And I think that price is more than worth it for the joy it will bring me. I have stretch marks above my belly button so I know my tum will never be perfect, but still. I think that cosmetic surgery is a wonderful thing. I have to live in my own body my whole life. I want uninhibited sex, there is no way I would show my tummy. Ever. So in my opinion, the risk, and the money is worth it for that alone.
I went on to "face in hole" and stuck my head onto a bikini ladies body, photobucket isn't working for some reason tho. But it looked good
I ate about 1900 calories at a guess yesterday, and about 2500ish today. I think the problem is that I haven't done shopping online in ages now, and I've been leaving it to nick to buy dinner. But the good new is, that the shopping's coining tomorrow, yeehaaaaaa.
I feel quite miserable for some reason, hopefully I'll snap out of it soon.
I started an April weight loss challenge if your all up for it.... http://weight-loss.fitness.com/t/54076/april-challenge#post_825913.

ARigghhhht, sooooo the diet has failed again.
I am going to try and do a holiday home swap in Spain/Turkey/Greece/south of France for after weeks in July. Even though I will probably cry when I see bikini clad women on the beach lol (that happened even in Butlins :/). The reason for this is that the first time I went on a successful diet it was because I thought I was going to go to the Dominican. So I think it will give me the push I need. Obviously there won't be a bikini however much weight I lose, but still. Three months to get in shape.
