Fingers crossed for you babes. Your gonna do grand, I feel it in my bones:flirt2::flirt2:

Scooterboy. I looooooove your scooter. My boys and I spent hours admiring them at the Isle of Wight rally aug bank holiday. We were mesmerised. The littlest one was really lucky. A bloke let him sit on his and DS3 had the biggest smile from ear to ear. They are hankering after going back this year just for that lol

Having serious words with myself today. My Mom (very selfish and bitter woman) started a fight with me this morning. Its her MO, Cause a fight, get a reaction, storm of crying, play the victim!!! There has been a lot go on over the last year and quite frankly if I wasn't an only child I probably cut her out of my life. She causes no end of arguments between me and my OH. It was so bad before Christmas he said that she wasn't to have any contact with our kids. Luckily I managed to talk him round.

Anyhow... normally after one of these episodes I would binge (did as a child). On anything, savoury/sweet/ alcohol wouldn't matter. As long as I could stuff it in. Don't worry I'm Not actually doing it!!! I'm thinking about it though.... Its there in my mind.... Like a great big cuddle....over the years my emotions have guided my eating/smoking/drinking. I've known that for a very long time. I only smoke in the car when I'm alone (when I'm board), I eat ALOT when I'm upset or bored (in the car again), I drink when I'm upset or bored (not in the car lol).


Today I'm fighting that part of me that needs to binge and by god it is hard. :sigh:

I'm doing this journey for me and my boys not anybody else. I've drawn a line in the sand and I'm stepping over and leaving the old me behind. Only I can make this change... For me and my family.


I think I'm going to go get my eyebrows done to celebrate!!!!!

I know exactly how you feel, I've suffered from terrible binges and bulimia and I'm over coming that now. It really is hard to break the habit you've always done as it used to comfort you.
Try to distract yourself, easier said than done I know. Big hugs to you hun xx

 

[babycake]

Ta Rae Rae. I'm distracting myself with Minimims at the moment. reading through some of the sticky threads. Just shown someone the post on fat to muscle ratio volume. Shocking how a lb of fat is the same size as a coffee mug. That means I've lost 6 mugs this week! think I might start referring to the lbs as that lol

That's a good way to look at it. Theres a post somewhere and it shows you how many pounds equal the weights of different things like a baby elephant etc, it's quite interesting but wouldn't have a clue whete to find it xc

So home from work and DS 3 is into one of his terrible 2's tantrums. I've been really lucky with DS1 and DS2 never experienced this before. Poor kid has met his match. I'm the most stubborn person I know. I will quite happily sit here in his room in the dark while he kicks off until he gives up!!! In fairness he is putting up one hell of a fight. No response is the best response!!!!

Lunch today was another omelette from the cafe but I think they got the orders switched because the mushroom where a bit oily. So I've syned 6 for oil. I'm still stuffed !!!

2 more days if work to go then we can do something fun.

[babycake]

I cant believe what a small world it is lol. I love the Isle of Wight. My best holidays as a kid were there.

Paul i've got the CBT just working on the confidence now. I'm still very hesitant of the other road users, I swear some car drivers use Jedi force rather then their bloody eyes!!! And your right WE CAN DO THIS xx


DS3 woke up full of beans, smiling and bubbly this morning. Not a care in the world. Just goes to show mommy knows best!! completely different child!

I however woke up grumpy, stiff and exhausted. OH says i was twitching all night!!! early to bed again tonight. tomorrow is gonna be a long day.

food wise i remembered to pick up some spuds for jacket potatoes and beans for lunch. I had an unintentional green day yesterday and think i'm going the same route today. 2 x HEb is good on a friday, can have 4 Hifi light bars then lol.
I just hope i get chance to eat them. We've got a mr Grumpy working today and he always works into our lunch hour and we cant leave him on his own with patients. It drives us mad. the number of times we get 5 mins or no time at all and his response is 'well they should get more staff' Some people just dont get it!!!!

I will survive!! I will survive!!

 

[babycake]

Where am I at today well after a morning in work (not happy) OH picked me up and we took the boys bowling. Omg how expensive!!! After the lane broke down for the 6th time. We asked for our money back as it had gone from fun to miserable!!!

What next well we side stepped to chiquito and we've had a lush meal. Syned it and it wasn't too bad really. The chicken and pepper kebab free as I requested it be cooked no oil, however the boys have ordered my favourite puddings and have said they are full. The plates are still on the table calling me!!! And waving at me!!!!

I will be strong. I will be strong
Xx

 

[Zafira]

Leave the puddings alone!
