20 somethings

Wow everyone! Fabulous losses/minimising of gains this week!

I was away at the weekend, camping, and someone else was doing the food so I didn't have a lot of say. I took wholemeal rolls so I could swap out the white burger buns and count it as a HEB. I even pre-mixed vodka and Sprite Zero so I knew my maximum alcohol syns! Despite that and a full day of paintballing (which was bloody knackering!) I was still up another couple of lbs. I could've cried. Pissed off but not going to let it throw me off the rails.

My OH is away this week too and I'm finding it so much easier to stick to plan. I need to work really hard this week as I'm away next week with little control over my food. I'm on a training course at an Army base and staying and dining in the Officers' Mess. I'm going to take some Mullerlights and bagged up porridge oats with me to stick in the fridge for breakfast. I could live off Mugshots for lunches and potentially dinners but the meals are quite key socialising time and it might put people's noses out of joint if I don't partake. They do jacket potatoes at lunch so I could have those, but the cheese isn't measured, and dinner is always a bit of a mystery!

I've been working really hard this week. I have been doing an hour of Just Sweat on Just Dance every other day and the past two days have been solidly spent spring cleaning and decluttering the flat, so plenty of body magic! I've gone back to green and red days as I think I prefer the structure (and the extra HeB!) so hopefully I'll see some result on the home scales tomorrow. I think Aunt Flo is about to pay me a visit which may explain all the 'weight' gain lately. Fingers crossed it will disappear pretty sharpish!
 
I meant to add - Laura, you're a star! I'm on a mission to get back to my lowest weight and beyond and your determination is really spurring me on. :) Let's do this!
 
Well done on your loss camz :)

Haha Fran my sweet tooth is my biggest problem! Had to syn some banana bread I munched on last night as I was cutting of the excess to make it flat. It's the most calorific cake I could have made so will def only be a small slice.

Thanks Hun, if I lose 1lb a week for the next 13 weeks I'll be in the 10s - totally doable and I LOVE having something to aim for! Want to lose as much as possible before I start my new job at the beginning of September as I'm going to need a whole new (smart!!) working wardrobe!! So it's nice to have something to aim for! Even better if I love 1.5 some weeks - but I will take what I can!

Thank you Danni Hun, I'm really pleased, and would love another decent loss this week to really set me on my way into the 10s...have been in the 11s forever - AND I've not got a single shiny on my 'new' WI book which I've had since Xmas!!! So would love a slimmer of the week!! X

Bloomin star week came and surprised me yesterday 2 days early :( for the first time in my life I had spot on 29 day cycles since having jack (used to be about 40 days long before jack) and now since the miscarriage ive had a 30 day and a 27 day cycle. Didnt expect it to mess my body up so much with it happening so early on :( hope my body sorts itself out again soon for when we start trying for the next bubba. Its been a hard week for me this week as I would have been 12 weeks pregnant and telling everyone. A friend in a group im part of from when we were all trying to conceive before (we've kept the group going as all such good friends now so can watch the kids grow up) found out she was prefnant the same day as me and shes had her 12 week scan. In a way its nice to see that a baby will be born around my due date, but its hard watching her progress through her pregnancy knowing I should be at the exact same stage :( so im just throwing myself into my exercise and trying my hardest not to comfort eat anything over my syns. I need to keep myself healthy for the next baby, thats my goal now. Xx
 
Aww must be hard hun but im glad your managing to get through it with a positive attitude and not just diving into bad foods to cover up the pain, I always think everything happens for a reason and maybe it just wasnt the right time yet but you have a lovely life to look forward to and a beautiful son who is gunna grow up proud of his strong mummy :)

Aww thanks so much hunny that really means a lot. I know everything happens for a reason, and that reason doesnt always show itself right away, but there will be a reason and I'll know eventually. Xx
 
I'm a VERY bad person...have just nearly wee'd myself laughing after witnessing a dinner lady skid and land in a child's sick...feel very sorry for her, but it was sheer comedy gold!!

Xxx

Well I was wrong to think my diet would be easier without my oh here! Our other lodger must think im unable to look after myself or something and decides to cook for me, without even asking me, he doesnt even think to ask me if I even like what hes making! Im so annoyed with him and more so that he thought it was ok to slap my arse yesterday! Does this man not know about personal boundaries!
 
If he slaps your arse grab his balls and tell him if he does it again you will take them and put them in a display cabinet so he doesn't have to display his masculinity by slapping your bum again.

Laura, it is great to see you so on plan.

Sammy, that must be so hard to see your friend pregnant, you are allowed to feel angry and upset, it is normal.

Star, retraining sounds great. I'm sure you will be brilliant :) nate's poo, snot, wee and sick doesn't bother me at all, but other kids'? Ew.

I got the keys this morning! Signed the agreement, so the house is mine :) Eeii. It doesn't feel real still, I think because it has been dragged out for so long I kept expecting them to turn around and say actually I can't have it and to bog off.
 
You sounds very strong Sammy, hope I would be like you when dealing with something so hard xx

Fran so exciting for you today! And laughing at your grab his balls comment :-D
 
Would rather not touch him he might enjoy it lol my oh nearly text him until I told him not to
