Stan's Diary

Thanks for visiting peeps - all your support helps :)

Breaking News: OMG! Stan has ribs! How long have they been there?

I just had a stretch, reached to scratch an itch in mid-stretch and bang, there's a rib right where there used to be flabby fat. Okay, so it's only one on each side I can feel and they're right at the top of the ribcage, but it's a rib! :D . Just gotta work on the rest now! :cool:

I'm off out (wearing a shirt I wouldn't have worn before 'cos it was waaaay too small) to buy a new pair of jeans. I'm only going to go one size down from the ones I have on at the moment, but these used to be really tight and now they're falling down quite a bit. It feels like a real result!

But, I was naughty yesterday. In one of the ad breaks in the film I got up and grabbed some naughties from the fridge. I had a sausage roll and a scotch egg and munched them without a care in the world. It's not exactly a diet-busting level of consumption and wouldn't have pushed my cals too high, but it was unplanned and naughty :( . I guess I need disciplining, girls :p :p ;)

I've just finished my walk (3.8 miles) and had to take a photo when I was half way round - the sun shining through the cloud and reflecting on the water with the birds in the foreground swimming around was just soooo beautiful. It's just a shame the camera on my phone is such poor quality - it didn't do it justice really. I've attached the pic.

And then, right as I was about to leave the park, on a piece of heathland about 20 feet from the path I was on was a small herd of fallow deer just standing there, watching me. I'm no deer expert, but I think they were all doe's 'cos none of them looked like a stag - there were about 8 of them. I would've took a photo but I didn't know how they'd react to me approaching them waving my phone around! lol. It's been the highlight of my walking so far - hope I see them again. :cool:
 
Hey congrats on the ribs!!!!!!!!!!

I have recently rediscovered my hip bones, I LOVE feeling them when I'm lying down, they feel so cool!!!!
 
I betcha never thought you'd be so excited to feel ribs, huh? :)

I loooove that picture, I wish I had a view like that around here, I would walk 3.8 miles too.
 
Thanks for visiting :)

Just a flying visit before bed...

Cals today - approx 1700 (had party food again!)
exercise - 3.8 mile walk

I promise to catch up on some other diaries just as soon as I get some time to myself! lol.

take care peeps :cool:
 
Ribs!! Wooohoo, look at you Mr. Sexy! ;):D:D
Love that photo! Such pretty scenery! We have a little area like that not too far from my house. I love going there in the fall when everything is turning colors. I forgot to go this year and it's too far gone now. :(

Hope you're have a great Sunday!! Oh!! And don't worry about the naughty day - sometimes your body just knows what it needs!!
 
Another flying visit I'm afraid :rolleyes: . I will find time to visit more diaries asap, I promise! I love finding out what people are up to and seeing how well they're doing :)

Okay, didn't count the cals today but I reckon I've come in near my usual target. Here goes...

Breakfast - weetabix 190
Lunch - went out for a meal with family
snack - beetroot sandwich 240
late tea - ham salad 170

The ones I know total 600, the meal was a turkey dinner but came in pretty meagre portions and with a scarcity of veg, so I'm confident it wont break the bank.

Did the ol' 3.8 miler in the morning too. :cool:

Morning Aussies, night Brits & good afternoon yanks. See you all soon :cool: :D
 
Hey there Stan,
Yay for rib's,I felt a couple comeing threw under my
boobs! I can't wait to notice all of them along with hip bones.
I love the picture what a beautiful view! Keep up the good work
Stan and have a gr8 Sunday,Tammy:D
 
Hey Stan--keep it up you're doing great. I know how the flying visits go. Its been a rough few weeks for me with visiting.
 
Ah, bones! My collarbone is showing up better than it has in ages, and it feels amazing, all solid and immovable. Wonderful!
 
Stan the man with the sexy ribs! Congrats! I laughed at you when I read that, but it was a happy, proud laugh! :p I'm really happy for you.

And that picture! :eek: It's BEAUTIFUL! I looooove nature scenes. When I looked at that I felt like I was there...I just stared at it for a few minutes. That's some clarity for a picture phone, how many megapixels does that baby have? I need that phone! :)

Have a great day! :)
 
Right here, CFL :)

My phone is a Nokia 6600, OHD. I got it off a mate when he upgraded to the newer model - I think it's been upgraded again since then, but I'm quite happy with what I have and besides, I'm too tight to buy a new one! :D No idea what the mp's are on it though :confused: sorry. Everyone is clubbing together to get me a decent camera for xmas, not sure which one they decided to get but it's going to be either 9 or 10 megapix - so look out for more photies once santa has been! :D

Right, I'm really tired, so I reckon I'll post this, do some visits then hit the hay *yawns loudly* *inserts matchsticks to keep eyelids from closing*.

Breakfast - weetabix 190
lunch - ham salad 200
tea - beetroot sandwiches 300
snack - 2 pickled eggs 150
snack - flapjack 156
snack - celery 20
supper - ham sandwich 280

total cals = 1296

There was lots of post tea snacking today when I realised how low my cals were. I must make a better effort to spread them over the day some more. I would eat something else to push me up to my total - but I'm stuffed! :rolleyes: :D

Did my 1.6 miles lunchtime walk pretty quickly today - I forgot my hat and crikey was it cold! :p

I'm pleased to report I'm down another notch on my work belt AND my jeans belt is now comfortable rather than tight on the next notch along. Woohoo! Progress rocks! :cool:
