Shame and disgust!

Hi Kate, I recognize your name, and I'm a fellow "here I go again" member. Good luck on your voyage - both the healthy one, and the one with the sandy beaches!
 
Hi All.
I hardly slept last night.....I was so excited. I felt like a child at Christmas :rolleyes: but I started getting annoyed with myself at around 3am.
I've had a lovely day at work today :) Everyone was so pleased for me booking my holiday. I think they were all rather shocked as all our holidays are camping in the UK.
Had another great food day :D 1118 calories today. Didn't go to the gym today, rest day.

Jen: Aww thanks hun. Thanks for the tip on uploading photos. I'll give it a go in a minute.

Allicat: I love the fact that you too worked out how long I have to make a difference to this body. I'd love to have lost 20lb by then but i'd be happy if I can get close to that :)
Booking this holiday has come at the perfect time, it has given my pathetic motivation a massive boost.

Little John: Heya :) 'here we go again' lol. Yep, that sums me up:confused: Hopefully we will both succeed this time!!

Ok, here goes with trying to put my photo's on.

Hi Kate,

We all mess up. You have done this before so you know you can do it again. In fact, you WILL do this!! I know you will!
 
I'm so excited for you Kate :D That is wonderful!!!! It's so good to have something to really look forward to & now you really do something positive to work towards, rather than dwelling on what's happened. GO YOU!!!!
 
Hi All :)

I have had a great day :D:D I am feeling really proud of myself today. Firstly, normally Friday after work is always when the wheels totally fall off and then I spend all weekend eating crap and lots of it. Well, today I didn't. And.....I had extra temptation to deal with too. I am an Explorer Scout leader and out meetings are Fridays, this week we met up with another group and there were snacks:eek: BUT.....I didn't have any of them. I took a punnet of grapes with me and resisted the crisps, Jaffa cakes and biscuits :hurray::hurray: Then afterwards all the leaders went to the pub:eek: and I had a diet coke. Mark messed up and ordered me a 'fat' coke and I refused to drink it so he had to go get me a diet one :rolleyes: I felt super proud. Oh, I don't think I've told you that I have given up alcohol for lent:eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek: I'm not religious but I always like the challenge of giving something up. This is gonna be a really bloody hard one for me.

Oh, and I went to the gym and today I had 1284 calories :)

I really feel I can tackle the weekend and stay on track.

Cowboy: Heya. Thank you for your faith in me :D

Cate: I'm so super excited about the holiday. I spent my lunch break at work today looking at size 14 summer dresses and tankini's on ebay. I am about an 18 at the moment and 14 is probably being too optimistic but hey I can use them in the summer or when I go to Glastonbury Festival!! if i'm not there by the time I go to Tenerife. I didn't buy any but am watching some. Aiming for a 14 will hopefully keep me on the straight and narrow :)

Jen: I really do love the view. I watch seagulls and flocks of pigeons as well as the odd ship going past. It really does make it less boring. Not so great when I go after work though as it's dark and I see my reflection of my massive bouncing boobs:eek::p

Night Night all. Hope everyone has an awesome weekend. Xoxo



 
Hi Kate -

Holidays are amazing. I find though that if I have 2 months to get in shape and say to myself that I will be 2 dress sizes smaller in an unrealistic amount of time, it takes away from the joy of actually going on the holiday.

I used to be an 18 and it's taken me around 2 years to get back to 14 (and I'm only just about a 14). I would suggest for the 10 weeks that you have action goals rather than losing goals - no alcohol, which is a great one, exercise 5 times a week, 1 slice of bread a day, whatever you think will help you. You will feel amazing by the time the holiday comes around if you take off the size pressure but have done some of the work towards getting back to peak fitness.
 
Nice job fighting that temptation! It's especially tough when its readily available and a "hey what's one more" situation.
 
Hi Guys.

I've felt a bit rubbish today :( Proper achy and just feeling crap. But....I still managed to stay within my calories and had 1381. I'm happy with that. It has been a struggle, I won't deny it. Like I said, the weekend is tough but I'm determined to stay on track.



 
Sorry your feeling poorly. Drink loads of water. It never hurts and it has helped me feel better for a remarkable variety of ailments. Remember the struggle is the victory. There are brief respites when it feels effortless to improve your health, but on teh whole it's a worthwhile struggle.
 
Heya.

Thanks guys.

Feeling totally bummed today. I've felt hungry most of the day, even though I've eaten well and i'm tired. I've managed to stay on track but having serious 'f**k it' thoughts.



 
Hang in there Runibunny! Great job on the big loss. Being hungry sucks, fight it the best you can with nutrious choices and a ridiculous amount of water. We're with you!
 
Hi Guys

Aww thanks for the encouragement :) and I did manage to keep on track!!! Yay me.

Sorry I didn't post yesterday I kinda got into crocheting and totally forgot. I picked it up again after a while because it stopped my brain wanting to go and eat. I'm crocheting a lacy kinda top thing for my holiday:blush5: I'm not very good, I taught myself last year by watching youtube tutorials. I'll take a pic and show you when it's done.

Had a day off (again) today as I had an appointment with the physiotherapist about my seratic arthritis. My shoulder and neck have been really playing up lately and I went shopping while I was in town. bought myself a new pair of trainers :D and a pretty summer dress that is too tight :) to give me some more incentive for my holiday :eek:

Had another good day, even though I was out all day I was a good girl and didn't eat any crap :Angel_anim: Yay me again.

Thank you guys so so much for all your help and support, it really is getting me thru.

Ok, back to messing up crochet ;)

Love and big squishy hugs. xoxo
