Put that down, fatty!

I hope that the funeral (for your great aunt right?) wasn't too tough. :(


On a higher note, did you reach 203lb yet? :D
 
Fox, I'm not going to my great aunts funeral--it's too far away and I start my new job on Monday so can't miss my last few days at my current job. Today was the funeral of a 5 year old disabled boy I used to care for. Was very moving. Thanks <3 And will weigh in tomorrow and let ya know if I get 203!

Made dinner and it was disgusting. Not quite sure I managed to mess up a pasta dish I've been making for years. Was tasteless and horrid. Yank ate all of it though--good ol' Yank.

L: crackers and light philli (160) blueberry yogurt (60) twiglets (85) skips (86) cheese (80)
D: smoked sausage pasta (300)
S: seeds (200)

T: 971
E: 2 mile walk

Super low cals today so better have lost tomorrow! Got a private physio appointment tomorrow at 8pm (WHO IS OPEN AT 8PM!?) to see what can be done about my gammy ankle. Was walking downhill in the forest today and was so aware that that ankle feels weak and unstable. Hopefully he'll have some answers for me.

3 more days left of the new job. So sad to be leaving. Going to need my tissues on Friday I think!
 
Hope you have a few great days at the old job...

And happy to hear you're thinking about buying a bike, I approve :)
 
Hey! I'm back yet again! I'm glad and not glad to see you here! ;) How have you been lately??

I have been super busy with the two kids. My oldest is almost 2.5 years old! And my baby is 8 months old on the 11th! I am struggling with finding time for myself as they, obviously, are demanding and their schedules (like naps, etc) aren't the same yet. The only time I have is after they are in bed and then I'm exhausted! But, that's the only time... so, that's all I can do.

Anyway, hope to hear from you soon!
 
Risty! Hey sweetpea! It's been ages! 2 babies!? Brave woman. My friend got pregnant again 8 weeks after she gave birth so she has 2 under 18 months now! Not sure how she does it!

I've been fine--still fighting the fat as best as I can. Have had 2 perfect days so going for 3! Have been working out at the gym 3-5 times a week but it's not been giving me results so hoping to kick start it with some low cal days. Think I've been compensating for the gym by eating more afterwards!!


------------------------------

Right, new day! Going to be positive. Taking crackers and philli for lunch and having WW meal for dinner with veg and salad. IT WILL HAPPEN!
 
I couldn't imagine having two THAT close in age! I wanted mine close together and they are pretty close in age. 21.5 months apart and that's hard enough! It's not bad for the most part but my toddler has been HORRIBLE when it comes to naptime and bedtime. It's a HUGE battle. So we got strict and it was hard the first 2 days, (like over an hour screaming and crying at naptime and bedtime) but yesterday went well! Almost no screaming and crying, it was great! Of course she got up a few time with excuses but we put her back to bed easily. So hopefully today goes well again too.

And yes, stay positive!!!
 
Hey Hana! Just stopping by to say hello and catch up. You sound busy, busy, busy.
I also think a bike is a great idea... I have an occasionally wonky ankle, but biking is safe for it.

Oh, and I loved reading your Q&A a page back! You are so full of youthful exuberance. :) Go live that life, don't wait for everything to be perfect.
 
Thanks Don--glad to have you back and posting :coolgleamA: Youthful exuberance? I'll try telling Yank that next time he accuses me of acting like a teenager! :smash:

Today has been good. Food is decent so farrrrr and I went to the gym after work even though the weather is hot enough to melt my face off. Off to my physio appointment soon!

L: crackers and philli (150) apple x 2 (90)
D: bowl of plain pasta with a little butter (230)

E: 6 miles on the bike, 2 miles walking.
 
Looks like I'm going to need surgery for my ankle--being referred to a specialist to talk through my options but he said he basically can't help me. My ligament is so loose it's not supporting my ankle at all which is why I'm spraining it every few months. Massive pain in the ass. Or ankle. Stupid foot.
 
I'm sorry.

I would have the surgery and get it as good as possible... No-one likes operations - but if it was me I would have an operation to save me from the pain of all those sprains. I have hated it whenever I sprained an ankle (I did so a few times when I was big). Really painful!
 
That sucks! But fixing your ankle will be good for you in the long run, so it's a good thing. Do you have an appointment with a surgeon yet?
 
Thanks everyone :beating: No appointment yet--I'll be going through the NHS which takes FOREVER but it's free, right? So no complaining. Could take months just to get referred. Which is fine with me as I'm starting the new job and can't have any time off for a good while. Just fed up of spraining it so often. The pain when I do it always makes me chuck up and it's not very fun throwing up in the street and scaring people! Blurghhh :ack2:

My calories were stupidly low yesterday-I had 470 and went to the gym. So not fabulous. Down to 203 today though so quite pleased I was low-cal for yesterday :D
 
470 is too low - starving yourself isn't going to build the good healthy eating habits that will really help long term.
 
Sorry I havent stopped by in a few days- so much has happened! Really sorry for both your losses. I had something similar happen with losing someone young I worked with- when I was 18 I worked at Curves and we had a 12 year old girl that used to come in every day after school. She was way under the age we allowed but her mum signed the contract and I had to sign saying I would monitor her for her entire workout as she was there every day during my shift. So spoke to her every day for around a year and we became pretty good friends. 6 months after I left she passed away due to complications getting her appendix out. I think you don't realise how much someone affects you or leaves their mark and then something like this happens, so sad.

And your poor ankle, how frustrating! Hopefully you can get surgery sooner rather than later and get it out the way!
