exercise

30 min walk with dog
2 mile run

will def need to do more exercise tomorrow...keep saying this..loll!
 
30 minute walking the dog AND a 2 mile run...and you're saying you need to do more tomorrow? Damn my ass needs to get more motivated! lol Thanks for the movie info...think I'll convince my hubby to take me to a movie tonight. If nothing else I can tell him to park at the far end of the parking lot so I have to walk :D
 
Hope you get to see your movie :):) The reason i want to do more exercise is because i bought a monthly gym pass and i have only used it twice in june! Not really worth £50 but the first week of my hols has been hectic (excuses, excuses....lol)

Have some of my close friends coming over tonight but they want to order a Dominos pizza and have a dvd night....arrgghhhh!!! Ok plan of action to avoid excessive pizza consumption (i can honestly eat a whole large pizza - how gross is that??!!). I will have oven chips and coleslaw instead (which i love and are much less calorific) and will allow myself to have ONE slice of pizza. I will also squeeze in an extra walk with the dog later tonight!

exercise
2 mile walk with dog
and that's abt it!

Will need to get my ass moving now and get ready for tonight!
 
My fiance LOVES pizza, its his favorite food - when he orders it i can't even let myself have one piece because i can't stop there! You've got willpower to only eat one!

My gym is really expensive so every time i think about not going i just think about how much it costs me and how i'm not going to let them rob me and get my ass in gear! You can do it!
 
Hey Allie, yea I got to go see the movie, and you were right, "Wanted" was really good. And didn't have to even ask hubby, he parked us at the end of the parkinglot, lol. Too bad we blew off our diets at dinner :X Funny how food tastes so much better when you cheat and don't do it often, lol.

So btw, you won't realize until you go back and look but you had me laughing so hard today. Go back and look at your post and how I read it and my response, lol. I needed a laugh though cuz I'm so stressed so ty :D
 
You had an extra "O"..so it reads like you could be accusing me of "pooping" by your diary, which I flatly denied and thought of blaming somebody else but figured that'd go over like a lead balloon. I'm silly I know....I just had this image of poo sitting by a paper version of your journal. Blame it on being an only child, I am very easily amused, lol. Hope you're not offended, I typo ALL the time and enjoy a good one when I see it.
 
LMAO!!!! I thought you meant that it was in my diary and i was scouring it to find what was funny! That is bloody funny - wish i had meant it!

<snipped>!
Have you tried DiGuorno's (sp?) pizza for one? I like their chicken one, on a thin crust. The whole thing is 550 calories and since it's a self contained serving, you have to stop or cook up a second serving. I bake the pepperoni one for BF (it's 770 calories though) and the chicken/spinach one for me.

If i have the willpower then it's well hidden! I did indeed have one slice...and then three more :angelsad2::angelsad2: Oh dear....must get back on track properly. Might have a quick detox blitz tomorrow to try an get rid of all this crap!

Leaving for the hols on sun night so i have a few days to get rid of the inevitable bloat that i will get from the delicious pizza!

No regrets!

I forget that you're across the pond. I suspect you have something similar there though.... I'll see what I can google up...



This is the site for the pizza...and they have an international link..but I can't see that it does anything.



And this is the pizza that I'm fond of.... :)

Shit shit SHIT what is the point of dieting and exercising if your arse is still too bloody fat to get on a plane? Im totally stressing out cos i just found out that the aeroplane seats are betwen 16.5 and 18 inches wide. WTF???? Of course i measured my own fat ass and of course it requires a width of around 19 inches. Now assuming i get an 18in seat i should be ok. A bit of a squeeze but im sure il manage. If i get one of those 16.5 inch seats then i am screwed. There is no way il shave 3 inches off my ass and the thought of spilling onto someone elses seat or having to buy another seat WHILE IM ON THE BLOODY PLANE is just too shameful and embarrassing....and yes i am now worried sick, its 4am and im crying like a baby cos im so afraid of what will happen when i get on that plane on sunday night...

Im so ashamed of myself. I have no one to blame but myself and i know that some half arsed attempt to slim down was never gonna make me skinny - but i thought i would stop being so humiliated. Obviously not...sigh....
 
Nope there is no way to check and even if i try to book seats for my hubby and i to sit together, they cant guaratee that we will be beside each other - we might be sitting in front or across an aisle. I am sooo worried and now i cant relax all. I havnt slept a wink and i just know that i will be mortified on that plane. If i could afford to buy the extra seat then i would so that there would be extra space...but i cant and if they ask me to do that on the plane then that will be a massive chunk of our spending money gone....it's my own fault I should have tried harder.

So today i weighed in at 226 which is a 2lb difference from last week. Still not my lowest weight tho...at one point i was 224 so go a little way to go to get back to that. Im so depressed at the mo and i have lots of stuff to org for the holiday - i just cant find the motivation to do it all. Im not even excited anymore. I bloody well hate myself for what im putting myself (and my husband through)
 
Hi Allie

I really suggest that you chill out and try not to worry too much about the plane seat situation until it happens.

There is every chance that the plane will not be full. It is early summer and they tend to get more full in August. If there is a seat that would be empty they will move any person next to the biggest person away so that they are not squashed.

I was pretty big you know and remember - my husbands is cuddly too. It is a little embarrassing when they move people about - but it is over in a couple of minutes. In our experience the plane crew are good at handing out seat belt extensions - so that bit is no problem. Often the armrests move up and it is always a good idea to move the armrest between you and your husband. Cuddly or not - they actually are pleased to get closer to us.

We often believed that it helped to get a bit extra early for check-in and explain that you wanted to be together and want bigger seats if at all possible. Some seats have extra space and some planes have a couple of rows where there are two seats across.

Remember - it is called an obesity epidemic for a reason - there are lots of obese people about. The fact is that the flight crew are used to dealing with obese people every day. They know what needs to be done and they want it to all go well for everyone.

The notion that it would be nice to not have this concern will be a great motivator for losing weight before the next holiday - but try not to let these concerns marr this one before it starts.

Have a nice holiday.

Take care
Love
Margaret
 
Tink, I suggest you check in for your flight as early as possible. Some airlines let you check in and select your seat online 24 hours prior to take off. If not, I would try to get to the airport early to insure a shot at getting one of the more generous seats.
 
Hey Tink, don't stress. I flew across the U.S. last summer to see family weighing 295 pounds and I'm only 5'1. I fit into all the seats even in the smaller ones. After everyone got on everyone was usually exchanging seats to sit alone or with family so I had no problems...even the few times I didn't get an empty seat next to me it wasn't bad. The only problem I had is the seatbelt wouldn't fit across my huge stomach so I just made sure everytime I got on I'd quietly ask the stewardess for an extender. Honestly it will be ok...you should be more worried about the the kid who's going to be behind you kicking your seat, lol. Oh and my best advice...bring music and headphones for sure...it saved my sanity to be able to block out the noise sometimes.
