Food.. its soooo last year..12 pesky pounds till goal :D
- Thread starter punkass
- Start date
Thanks Nic.. think our fat brain tells us to eat so that we can't get rid of the last stone once its within our grasp.. maybe it is something to do with not feeling worthy of being a super slim person! Although if it is it must be totally subconscious.. coz personally i can't wait (hehe weight) to be under 11 stone! It is definately odd to be so committed to SS - to the point that I feared that I never wanted to eat again.. and then just when it seems to be going so well it falls apart in a week!!!!!!
Erm when is the brummy meet? I could do that one.. especially as I will live near there soon!

Busy busy busy!!
You've done really well Kirsten and I'm sure you'll get that last stone off soon. Wow you go into ketosis quick - I'm envious!!
Good luck on the last bit of the journey ... the finish flag is in front of you!

..the wondering whether we are worthy is a possiblity, all those years of feeling fat will take a while of being slim to turn those emotions around. Hope we can do it..we CAN do it!
This last stone has been playing with me/me playing with it(only myself to blame) for longer than it took to lose the original 4 stone!! ARGHHHH!!!
Brummy meet is 24th march i believe! Im hoping to make it, gives me a goal date..need those and lots of, although they usually involve socialising=eating/drinking....yipeeeeee!!! This is one crazy journey eh?

I don't go into ketosis quick i don't think.. It took me until yesterday to think i was back in ketosis.. so that was 4 days... but of course i messed that up by eating biccies! So will buy some stix and check out over the weekend.. hope to be in ketosis in next 3 days.. so it makes my committment a bit easier!
I'll go find the thread and put my name down... the plan is to get the last stone off me by end of feb and then providing that stone goes to plan - stick to SS for another 4 weeks.. before going on maintenance.... mainly because i the 11stone goal was only my first plan.. i then decided to go for another 1 1/2 stone.. which i think I would rather SS towards rather than lose through maintenance.. so 24th March should be perfect!
Have been a good SS girl today, not been hungry - although I feel sure i'm not in ketosis..no dodgy taste in mouth - can't check coz no stix!
Just getting ready to go out and Ms Unreliable just rang to say she fell asleep and hasn't started to get ready - which is sodding ridiculous coz i'm nearly ready - she does this all the damn time - I wouldn't mind but I had given her lift home from Wakefield at 2pm, so she has had all afternoon to get ready! Can't believe she is doing this to me for the 3 millionth time after I told her to try and actually be ready for when she says she will be. She knows i'm not happy coz i told her - i hate sitting around the house practically ready to leave because I can't relax! I could have watched a bloody dvd! Feel like telling her to forget it.. but that is kinda cutting my nose off to spite my face! Also I had just drank my last shake of the day as she rang - I could have left it an hour and thus had it just before I left the house making sure I never felt hungry!
On a lighter note, been planning my leaving huddersfield do.. hopefully (if people are more reliable than my mate) there are lots of people coming.. looking forward to it.. its going to be a meal (I will be at target then) and then drinks in my fave bar (hopefully with my fave barman behind the bar.. or better still my side of the bar!!!)
Oh and update on mysinglefriend.com... well i emailed them to say it was strange that i hadn't heard anything... they emailed me back to say... guess what, ms unreliable never filled it in correctly!!!! So they never received her description!

Hi Kirstin,
So glad you are back on track, I am going to be hard now BUT no mucking around, you are an inspiration to me !!!!
Seriuosly, it must be so tempting to eat when you only have a stone to go, I can just imagine how hard that would be.
Biscuits are one of my very favourite binge items so I know I will never be able to eat them again as I can't stop at one...packet that is ! To visit a biccie factory while on this diet would be torment.
Hope you got a good evening out in the end !

Bed now me thinks!

Had a brilliant night out last night, was a bit quiet when i first got to my fave bar, because i was recalling my drunken email to S from two weeks ago..but he waved and smiled hello.. so i relaxed after a bit. He kept glancing over like he does, and one of the times I went to the bar, he gave me change for a tenner, when I had only given him a fiver.. I pointed it out to him and he said I'm not going to give you money now am I, it was a tenner... I checked with my mate and she said it was a fiver (She had given me the money so I could have excuse to go to the bar!!!!).. so I went back over and gave him the extra change back... he was still saying it was def a tenner, but his boss agreed with me... I told him he should pay more attention lol.. my mate said his problem is he goes to pieces when i go to the bar
A bit later he came over to thank me for my honesty... later on when I went to the bar he rushed over to serve me and his boss (who also rushes over to serve me sometimes!), said "have you noticed that no matter how many people are waiting to be served I never have to wait"? I laughed and said they kept me waiting sometimes, the boss said I don't think so!
I spoke to S about my leaving do on the 24th and asked if he was working, he said i may take the night off.. so i pulled a sulky face and said what so u can avoid me.. he said no, so i can join you for drinks SO i said okay... and checked that either way he would be there... he said he def would, and then tried to persuade me not to move south!
Meanwhile his boss checked the bars myspace page and came over to say I shouldn't move too! I said they needed to expand their bar down to the midlands... hope i'm in for some free drinks on my leaving night!! I left the bars myspace a comment earlier yesterday explaining when i was having my leaving hudds do!
S kept wandering past and we kept meeting on the stairs whenever i toddled off downstairs to the loo.. right at the end of the night.. we'd met on the stairs as I was going down and he was going up.. I went to the loo and came out to find him sweeping the floor in the bar down there (that bar was empty and closed by this point).. he never looked up, but it was kind of planned i think, he knew I was there, and that was why he never looked up.. anyway i made a joke about him being on his knees (oh i so wish lol!!)... a bit later when he was back upstairs, he got on his knees again next to the sofa i was sat on... just to pick up my empty bottle - so a little unnecessary me thinks.. he said look u have me on my knees again - I said that its good to have a man clearing up after me
Spoke to him a few more times, assured him I would be visiting Hudds lots when I've moved, hes shocked that i'm going in two weeks, bless he looked v sad... i was too for that matter - OMG i don't want to leave!!!!! Was time to go about 1.30 ish or something so i returned my glass and shouted goodbye to him... he has the most amazing cheeky smile!!!! For the record none of my mates can understand why I fancy him like mad, but I just have odd taste maybe!
Not sure if i'm out tonight, that was the plan, but i'm kinda skint really.. and I still need to go out next friday for my S fix!
Said i'd email him today with full details of my leaving do and try and persuade him to book the night off and come out with me.......... (SO Lottie u may not only see him.. u may actually get to socialise with him... bloody hell my concentration skills on the 24th are gonna be soooooooooo poor!)

Just got back from gym.. ran 3 miles in 30 mins on the random hill program (because it mimics running outside as best as possible).. and I soooo could have carried on - it is the easiest run I have ever done..... even when I ran half marathons and trained regularly I was still probably 1 1/2 stone heavier than I am now.. so this run was just sooooo damn good!!!!!!!!! Think I may actually start my marathon training now.. was gonna wait until end of Feb when I hit original target.. but I may as well start some preliminary training ready to start the hard stuff end of Feb! After my run I did some weights and a few lengths of the pool.. before relaxing in hydrotherapy pool and sauna.. Been at the gym since 9.30am!!! Totally loved it!
Still not done any house packing! Must do some today at some point.... but now i am seriously in need of a shake! Not had any foodpacks yet today!
OH I ate yesterday.. had chicken with a few chips.. but think i have burnt them off now.. plus i am still 1lb down on last monday.. so all being well I can record some weight loss tomorrow and get my ass back in gear!

OMG tired just reading about ALL your exercising, you go girl, jeez exercising is my one downfall, ie I don't do any or not enough to count, my excuse is the weather ha ha.. made a new years resolution few years ago to NEVER rejoin a gym and i'm sticking with it...LOL...
got a humongous cross trainer taking up half my bedroom but since I got the flu I've not been back up on it, actually think its time for a NY resolution for that too...Ebay here I come...problem is I don't know how I'm gonna get it back downstairs, how do you post something like this ROFL...
Your doing brill Kirsten, not far to go now to your goal....
Karen.. i totally agree.. can't believe the wonderful willpower i had over the first 12 weeks up and left for the last 2!!! I know that realistically i only need 4 more weeks of SS and i'll be at target (although I still want to go on a bit further after that - maybe another 4 weeks of SS afterwards and then maintenance)... I'm fine at home really.. but I keep craving meals out!!!!
Maybe we should do a last stone thread and motivate us all..we can all put our names down and help each other?

Hi Kirstin,
Just caught up again with your thread. Can't believe the cheeky barman is still mooning around but not quite doing anything about it ! He will lose his chance if he doesn't sort himself out. What happened to YL ?
1 stone to go, SO pleased for you ! Can't wait to get to that kind of place. I am moving and having to swap to CD and am not looking forward to only having 3 packs per day. Did you find that ok ?
