Morning Emma. Im ok thanks, just having a bit of a grotty week really on the pain front, so have to take lots of strong pain killers that make me feel horrid! Hey ho, its all so monotonous, its driving DH & I nuts. He feels so helpless & you know what men are like, they have to fix things & he obviously cant!
Enough of me whinging....life is too darn short to be moaning! What sort of clothes are you looking for? x

Sorry to hear that you're in so much pain, must be terrible for DH not to be able to help you! Anything nice planned for today?
 
I prefer rum and diet coke but apparently it's very nice straight too. Havn't seen it in any supermarkets yet but we have a nice specialist booze shop that sells it or available online. My next favourite is lambs spiced very nice also. If you enjoy spiced rums definitely worth a try, think wetherspoons sell them both if you want to try before you buy ;-) x

Mmm, might have to have a try! DH is more of a rum man, he drank copiuos amounts in Granada & tells me all his funny stories about drinking it on the beach! x

They have started selling this in wetherspoons on the new menu! X

Fantastic :)



I understand what you're saying and I know I probably haven't done as much damage as I thought. My concern is that I literally ate until I felt sick and I wasn't enjoying the food, and that's the kind of eating that made me big in the first place. I need to learn to have little bits of what I fancy and stop when I'm full rather than just attack it like a rabid dog! It's not what I ate that I'm worried about, it's the quantity and the lack of enjoyment :(

Im sure its more of a psychological feeling towards food that make us do that, or we wouldn't be doing SW in the first place! But I suppose one binge wont do any harm as long as SW food takes a priority afterwards!

We're having a garden day today. I'll just potter, but the problem is once I spot one weed I cant stop!
Having an EE day today......pork scollops with a mushroom sauce, SW chippies & petite pois. Whats everyone else having? x
 
I'm off to OH's mum and dads today. A little worried as she cooks in oil. I've just had a sausage sandwhich just so I don't eat so much whilst there. OH had cooked a cook to take with us and 1 6th of it is 1/2 my points for the day!! I'll resist it though :) I've put a tomato and red soup in the slow cooker for when we get home too. X

Oh no that's so rubbish. Am so impressed that u can stay on plan when u feel like that. The pain must be so debilitating. Really hope there's some light at the end of the tunnel for u soon.

On a brighter note it sounds like you've got a nice day planned and dinner sounds yummy.

I'm just off to the shops now. Not really sure what I want. Did quite fancy a new outfit for a wedding I've got but think I'll save my pennies. Just fancy picking up a few general bits to freshen up my wardrobe xx

Cant describe how horrid the whole situation is, but Im sure I'll get some answers soon after the MRI! Thats where I went wrong last year, I got to target, started having problems with another disc, had surgery.....ate too much!!! So this time, I knew I had to follow SW otherwise I would be the size of a bull elephant! It would be too easy to look at food as a comfort, so I do have to be disciplined or it will get out of control again & I WILL NOT let that happen again....Im a stubborn mule!

If I go out shopping looking for something in particular I can never find anything I like, so sometimes its best just to potter & something will pop up & say 'buy me'! Hope you have a fun day x

I really admire your attitude! Good for you on being so strong Kim. X
 
Sooooowee it's ok I realised I got Jeans on!

They must weigh at least 3lbs! Fingers crossed for official WI tomorrow.

I think I must be the abnormal one, coz I never jump on the scales mid week, Im too much of a scaredy cat to see the natural fluctuations. I have to force myself to get on them on a Friday! x

Aaw thanks Shellie. I dont feel strong, but I suppose I have to be to a certain extent or I would have gone cuckoo by now! It just seems as each day comes & goes I have a new neurological symptom.....yesterday & today its a breakdancing thumb, its twitching that fast sometimes I cant see it, as its going faster than the speed of light lol! Ooooh, had a thought, would that thumb be burning calories lol!!! Thank goodness I still have a sense of homour! x

Defo. Just had a wee n lost half lbs lol. Hope I get 1/2 off tomorrow for my 3 stones x

Haha! Good luck for tomorrow! The things that we do before WI, must be mad!
Kim, yes, your sense of humour is obviously strong! I have visions of a breakdancing thumb. Not too long before you see your consultant now? Must be so frustrating for you. I will try not to moan too much about going back to work as it must be awful for you, wanting to but not being able to right now?

It has gone soooo cold! I'm about to tackle the clothes mountain in my bedroom and then go for a blustery walk by the sea. X
