breda's ww diary to good health

[Michillinwoman]

Hi Jo. Yes it was really bold and I know its a very slippery slope but you are right line is now drawn and focussed for next tuesday when I aim to be down and back on my journey ......................

Ellen .Its not really my goal to become a leader again . This is all about ME and my health. I have two kids with very different special needs and I need to be healthy and long lived !!!!!!!!!.

I loved being a leader at the time. I only ever did one or two classes a week but its a lot of work behind the scenes believe it or not. The satisfaction from seeing people reach their goals is amazing and I am a people person but as I say Its not my aim at the moment.

Delighted you are enjoying your class and never worry if your weight loss is slow . I never loose big amounts but its the consistant people that religiously come to class (and stay if possible) and loose their 1-2 lbs a week are the people who normally get to goal . That is a fact.
Will look forward to following your progress . See your journey as a new way of life not something to do for i.e 6 weeks and that will help

Hi Mazie,

Strength of will !! I dont know. I have my slip-ups as well as everyone else (see yesterdays diary for details !!Ahem ). I think its down to consistancy and having small goals. I really want to see my first stone down now. That has refocussed me today . I have to go to a retirement mass later in my daughters school and there is refreshments after !! . Thats not in my menu for today so watch this space to see how I do. Will be honest ....

Iwillbe strong, I will be strong, cup of tea only.......... lunch when I get home.

[Michillinwoman]

Ahh Thanks Mazie .Thats really nice of you to say. If I help anyone along the way thats great. I havnt been walking the walk for the last 3 years but i suppose you dont forget what you have been taught.Writing to others motivates me too. keeps me focussed...

Hi . The retirement function went on a bit .was supposed to be finished at 1.30 pm and finished at 2.45pm . I was starving so I had a gougon and a chicken wing.:cry:. Will put on 4PP to menu . Could have been a lot worse I suppose.. Bit fed up I didnt resist but at least I didnt overdo it.

 

[CarlyLanky140]

Defo could have been worse! Xx

 

[Mazie6]

[mrsm2007]

Hey to resist all that yummy food and only have a bit of chicken is fab, don't do yourself down x

 

[Michillinwoman]

Thanks Girls . I feel better about my day now. There was a lady in frount of me in the queue for food and she had her plate piled high (like she hadnt eaten for a week!!) and of course she was a stick insect !!!!!!!!!! . How cruel is that

I'm glad you managed to escape, it certainly sounds as though you had a busy day! Food looked very good too

 

[Michillinwoman]

Hi Guys , Have had a crazy last few days. We have had our local agricultural show here yesterday and today and I usually help out selling tickets for Daughters school there its been all go . Really hot today so have been tempted by icecream vans. . Have tried to keep off the junk like chips etc . Have to admit have not pointed . Cant wait to get back on tuesday and get back into routine. Missing the one week has thrown me. Hope you are all enjoying the sunshine whereever you are . On the good side I did walk around the showgrounds today for almost 3 hours. wrecked now.
