Morning Katy - Happy New Year!

Sorry to hear your NYE celebrations turned sour, I am constantly baffled at how selfish some people can be - no consideration for others feelings, almost waiting for an audience to over react and over act. Hope there aren't too many repercussions from it.

As for moderation, not seen too much round here lately however it is the small steps we take that are important.

Keep strong, and warm and safe indoors!

You hit the nail on the head for New Year Wales... I don't know yet what the outcome will be, but suspect they will stay together, it is a pretty messed up relationship. Think it's the end of our NY parties though, I can't have her here again, not fair on other guests. We can't have a party & not invite OH's best pal, so no more parties, which makes all of us sad. Can't see another way though, and maybe be good to break the pattern.

Every time I think I'm a nutcase from now on I will think of her and all will fall into perspective!

Routine... when can I have some? The local schools are all closed today cos of the ice & snow, & we had more snow overnight, I am so OVER the pretty white stuff now. I need to find myself some routine, so it will be a proper work day, and aiming at 1200 with diet tracker as a way of pulling back some sanity. Scales tipped 11st 10 today so the shame of a stone gain from my lightest in May/June will hopefully keep me on the straight and narrow.

Hope you are all good and doing well... hugs.

Hey Katy,

just echoing what Wales said about your RUDE and SELFISH guest on NYE. I dont get it why some people when they are having a rough time have to spoil it for everybody else!

Now me and my OH had a humdinger of a row on NYE morning and we were meant to be going to a party with our kids and he said he wouldnt go as it wouldnt be fair on the hosts. to which i said you cant do that to the kids but he said no Im not going.

he unfortunately is a stubborn sh*t at the best of times and he sulked all day then said at 3pm he wouldnt be at home when we got home and he would come back the following morning. we then had long prolonged silences until me and the kids went to the party and he said see you later to the kids which incensed me as he was just playing mind and power games with me.

so we jollied off to the party and kids had a great time and I quite enjoyed it to and felt as if I had had a big weight lifted and was looking forward to singledom and not having to answer to him all the time.

Im sorry I have rambled on your thread but the whiole point of that was even tho OH was being a stubborn sh*t trying to puinish me he didnt inflict it on our friends on NYE.

On the plus side I was 95% good yesterday witht the moderation malarkey and am nearly 1lb lighter this morning so thats helping spur me on! and hopefully to make you feel better I'm 3st heavier than my lightest last year so you wont need to take that long to get yours off.

WE CAN DO THIS!!!
Love
Jess

P.S. Chelsea Lou - pass on my congrats to Jess on her engagement - lovely news xxx

Jess, so sorry you are having a rough patch with OH. I hope you come through it, hun... men can be so stubborn and grumpy, tell me about it. I hope things are OK again now.

Feel free to offload on my thread anytime, after all my stuff about NYE party wasn't exactly CD stuff, but important stuff to me. The woman is crazy, she actually did drive away in the end, about 5-ish, and we all went to bed, and I lay there worried sick imagining her crashed into a ditch or skidding into other people... she came back an hour and half later, sat outside in car in -8 temps for another hour... I was scared to go out to her in case she drove off again... she then came in and got her partner & daughter & they drove home about 8.30, she left a not saying 'so sorry if I spoiled your party' Um... If? There was never an 'if'.

However, I am glad in a way to have some kind of an end to it, I have put up with her madness for way too long, but mainly because I care too much about the people close to her, her partner, daughter, step-daughter... she makes their lives a living hell.

Moving swiftly on!!!!

Ten past ten and I am doing OK, by this time yesterday I had crashed and burned with my face in a box of chocolates... today feels very different. This is the year I finally learn the lessons I stubbornly refused to absorb in 2009, and put them into practice. Yay!!!

Apparently shivering uses up lots of calories so by Spring we should all be lots of lbs lighter. Global warming seems like a sick joke at the mo lol

Aw thanks Bess, I will certainly pass on all your good wishes to Jess. She has been engaged a month, planning to marry in Summer 2012 and is Bridezilla personified lol. Bless

She deserves to enjoy every minute Chels...

I know, global warming, huh... ice age more like!

So glad to see old friends and new here, it makes it all seem more do-able at a time when I feel a bit low, but spirits rising and you are right Bess, keep on keeping on, it's the only way. And knowing we are not alone helps so much.
