Gaga's Bulging Epic Battle......

[Little-Miss-Perfect]

Yeeeeeh me gaga's back
Bloody hell gaga don't run off like that again, I've missed ya hun

You moan on here as much as you need to, that's what we're all here for int it? And I bet you'll never be able to moan as much as me lol

Your doing fantastic and whatever weight you reach for your holiday will be a million times better than when you started right? So not a waste of tine at all.

Hugs xxxx

Ahhhhh...thanks so much ladies. Elmer you hit the nail right on the head when you said about giving advice but not taking it. It's been a testing week for sure but not as testing as what other people have been through.

I just didn't want to moan. It has been tough and the lack of support from friends and family is really starting to grate. You guys are the only true support I have. Hubbie has still said nothing and his suport to all his mates and not to me is just causing so much agro and tension. My friends are of the opinion that as I lost weight before then gained it then I will do the same this time so why bother and they just want me to eat and jeopardise my plans. Family think the same and just want to 'feed' me. Hard being surrounded by so much negativity. Just getting into size 18 tops and 20 bottoms is massive for me and for someone I know and see to comment on how I look would mean so much as inside I still feel huge and the mirror still looks like a 26/28 to me!

I know it's just the wobbles. I will get there and Clair you are right- whatever November brings I will definitely be smaller than the 20stone 10lb starting weight.

So positivity will retrun and fun gaga will be back....I promise. Sorry for being such a wuss xxxxx

You are so not a wuss! You are brilliant! I could never do as well seriously and the amount if times you've helped me, supported me is too many to count. So glad you're back. Big massive hugs, stay strong xxx

Ahhhh..... Your back
Now I am happy

Before I logged on today, I thought to myself that I needed to do a wee line on your diary.... And here you are

This is the place to come an moan Gaga.
Get it alllllll out on here.
We all know what you are going through. Someone always puts a different spin on it for you, and you can get your head straight.
You know it works.
You, yourself are one of the people who is very good at putting a different spin on things for others..... to help them get through a difficult patch.
I bet the very fact that you do this so well reaffirms your own thoughts and wishes to keep YOU going

You have done the right thing to break down your goals a tad.
It sounds like you have been getting overwhelmed by the bigger picture.
You cant open a jigsaw puzzle up, and put it together all in the one go.
Building the picture up, bit by bit, pound by pound will help your head catch up with the amazing loss you have already had

Someone turned the witter mode on this morning on me .
But it is good to have ya back

Welcome back miss positivity! I know what you mean though about people trying to put the spanner in the works and being unsupportive. My DH, as much as I love him, doesn't talk about my diet and once a week (when I remind him I had a WI) he begrudgingly asks how much I lost and when I tell him says 'OH'. Where's the well done or the 'never mind next week will be better'??????????????

I secretly think they are jealous. DH keeps moaning that he needs to lose weight but never gets around to doing anything about it.

Onwards and upwards for us girlies and stuff the men!! (sorry any men doing Exante )

:wavey: x

Whoop whoop she's back!! Missed you gaga x

 

[ladygaga]

Thanks again ladies. Your support is second to none and I could not do this without you all. Just having my first shake then have a lush 2 hour facial to look forward to. Then gonna pop and see my besties then got Dr's appt at 6pm as my eczema is driving me crazy! Not sure whether it's the diet or what but it's back with avengeance. I'm sure it's all the stress. Will see what he says but am not going to mention the diet that is for sure. Can't wait for the facial tho....will be nice to have a treat. Was meant to be my 6 stone loss treat but hey ho. Hadn't the heart to cancel it and this way I will have to get another treat at 6 stone now xxxx

Thanks uber-beautiful Carly. Hope you are having a good day too. Just taken some photos so may upload them later if still feeling brave!

You're doing so well Gaga - we seem to have synchronised wobbles this week - but together we can keep following this journey. I think it's hard when you have so much to lose, it can seem like a never ending road; you're doing so well though. It's great that you've set yourself some goals, and just think how amazing you're going to be when size 16 bottoms start to fit. (The first time for me, I kept pulling the label out just to check - really I should have just stitched it on the outside!)
I'm sorry that your family and friends are being so unsupportive - it's strange the way others react to our weight loss. I've got a lot of people that are now trying to 'feed' me... it's hard holding on to our goals, and knowing that this is really helping you to achieve them. But stick with it, we all think you're great, and you're doing absolutely brilliantly Just think how fantastic you're going to feel on that holiday, and you'll be proud of the photos of you while you're away

Hey Hun in regards to come zero andthe like, I'm pretty sure I drink way too much but it's the only thing that keeps me vagely on track so I'd say just go for it!

I also have days where I just have 3 bars, I know its not ideal but it's better than ordering a takeaway or something because I don't feel like shakes!
Well done for 2lbs! Xxxx

Morning hun

 

[ladygaga]

Thanks ladies. Was just concerned about the coke zero as haven't had any until 3 weeks ago and now seem to be addicted. Not drinking any this week to see what effect that has just as a comparison.

So today is Wednesday and here's hoping today is going to be a good day. Bad gaga ate 3 bars again yesterday!!! Slapped wrists I know so can only have one today! Should say none but know I just couldn;t do that! Off for a hair cut in a mo and a wander around town. Seem a bit addicted to clothes buying on ebay too. Fed up of buying new stuff which doesn't last so now onto second hand bargains and had some really nice things. fab size 20 jeans which fit like a dream and next 18 tops which I don't think will last long as seem on the loose side already which really shocks me! Would love a new dress so may have a browse in town for one.

Only got 4 weeks now to write an 8000 word essay too which I've left until last minute so will aim to get busy on that one today (well note I said aim- I have a very full sky planner to get through too don't you know essay markers!!)

Happy Wednesday folks....will diary catch up later xxx

 

[valentine]

Hiya huni have just had a good ctach up on ya diary...Them pesky bars are sooo moreish aint they lol ...good luck with your essay hun xxx

 

[DustQueen]

Oh no damn those bars!! Do we need to stage an intervention?

 

[ladygaga]

I think so Carly....can you please come and stand in my kitchen and slap me with a rotten kipper every time I go to my drawer of bars please? Zero willpower.

Today Gouda slices are my enemy......why oh why did I buy them?? So much for no Gaga Food Week.......

Town was a succesful trip- well pending on my branch of thought. Had a lovley spend up in my favourite Paperchase (feel free to send me freebies Mr Chief Exec if you read my diary) however Exante have killed my joy. I placed my used shaker bottle from my lunch shake within the bag of said purchases only to find the bloody lid has leaked all over my new staionery and ruined my yummy 2 books. Now they smell of the yukky choc shake .....not impressed.

I paid Gap a visit lured in by their 75% posters and have 'stupidly' bought a linen summer dress in a size 12 and a pair of short dungaree type things in a medium both reduced to £9.99 ready for Jamaica. The woman must have thought I was crazy as she asked me had I bought the baragins as a gift but I thought sod you- I told her they were for me and when she looked bemused- I said I was wearing a fat suit for an experiment!!!!! Man I am CRAZY!!!!!!!!!!! I have now placed them on hangers in my wardrobe in the vain hope they will fit by November (???) Not convinced but hopefully they will spur me on. Think I should take a photo of me trying to squeeze in them now and then compare in Nov.....

Well at leats my hair looks nice. My hairdresser reckons I am a size 14 now.....that made me pmsl!!! She couldn;t beleive my trousers were a size 22!!!! Hey ho- was sweet of her. I've known her years and been all sizes so asked her to be honest. She reckons my hair is definitely thinner but not as bad as last time I did VLCD. It is thin all over so no definite patches which is good. She doesn't think it is noticeable as my hair is short but she said if it worsens she will just cut my hair even shorter and advised against growing it as it would look worse on my head. So my short hair will remain and hopefully baldness won't get me just yet!

Much love peeps xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

 

[Little-Miss-Perfect]

Pmsl you tell her gaga

Yep defo take pics, will be great to see your progress xxx
