Silence · 4th October, 2008

I'll be studying business and accounting. I'll still be able to go after I move, it'll just be a half an hour train ride. Don't worry I won't spend the week worrying about it, I know that I have to go. I'm already telling myself that I'm going to learn, if nothing else, it will improve my French. I've also had a lot of time to get used to the idea.

That's all good news then *hugs*

Silence · 6th October, 2008

My mum called me last night, she's booked a flight to come and see me in 18 days time

The homesickness as kicked in big time.

I also really want to lose some weight to look good when I see them. You know I've been "dieting" for 2 months and I'm the same weight cos I keep yo-yo-ing on and off. It's driving me crazy. I honestly do feel like such a failure, so stupid and pathetic and weak. You know what the most predominant feeling is though? Desperation.

I said to myself last night, tomorrow morning - restart. We'll see how this one goes.

Morning Silence.
Great news about your Mum coming to visit. Know what you mean bout the desperation thing. I have slipped a bit, so have to get my act into gear and try and at least get rid of the squatters before my next hol!!!
Have a good day.

caws · 6th October, 2008

I'm so pleased your mum is coming out ~Silence~ - maybe that's the inspiration that you need to help with your determination (turn that desperation into determination - you can do it !!)

Clarri - another holiday planned already ??

Gemstone · 6th October, 2008

Hi Silence and everyone else. Just got back from my weekend and have eaten crazy food all weekend. It started at my grandson's birthday on Friday - just picky food all day and continued through the weekend. I don't know what I've done but I'm sure it's not good - the scales will tell me the truth of it tomorrow and I will probably not speak to them for the rest of the week - Nasty scales!!! I'll update you on the squatter situation tomorrow. Night night all x

Silence · 7th October, 2008

*Sighs* Nope the desperation remains, in fact, I would say it's all the more intense.

I keep telling myself that I can do it, but I don't believe me. And you know how it goes, if you don't think you can do it, then you can't.

I think I need help

clarri · 7th October, 2008

Silence
What a lovely piccy of you!!! Im hearing you on the desperation. I keep thinking, well I should get back on track, but there is a little voice saying, but you are going away again in 2 weeks, whats the point!!
Well, so far today I am doing better. So far!!

Silence · 7th October, 2008

Yeah, my little voice keeps saying, wait until after you move to Colmar and things settle down again...

Where are you going in two weeks time Clarri?

clarri · 7th October, 2008

Um, lucky me., I think we are going to Tunisia!!! Its OH's birthday hol!!! Mind you its as much for him as it is me!!!

Gemstone · 7th October, 2008

Ha ha, I'm away again in 3 weeks too and a party to go to the week before but I KNOW I have to be good in between. You see, if you shift the squatters and then a couple more, it's not gonna be quite as bad next time round.... and so on... and so on. It's that one or two steps forward that makes the steps backwards not matter as much as they would. The main thing is to go the right way - generally x

tara66 · 7th October, 2008

Hi Silence, I so wish there was something I could say or do to help cos the desperation is really the pits. I can only say on the weight front I have been where you are now so have a hug.

Don't put pressure on yourself to lose weight before your mum and dad arrive, it doesn't matter to them and I doubt that more pressure at the moment is what you need.

I love your new picture, you look really great in it x

Gemstone · 7th October, 2008

Silence. The piccy is lovely - you are very photogenic - I wish I was x
