Last Half a Stone Challenge! any takers?!

blimey Tara, we'd better be good or else Dobbie is going to be after us:D

Been to the town and ended up buying another pair of shorts - they are dark grey with silver pinstripes - size 10 - woohoooo! Also got a top from Jane Norman, size 12. Dont think i'll ever be a size 10 top but i dont mind about that! Now shortlisted outfit for tonight to:

1. new shorts and new black top with black tights and black patent shoes or silver shoes

2. dark jeans type trousers (kinda stretchy) with new black boob tube with swirly sequin type things on it, silver shoes.

Going to try both on now and see what i look like. I think everyones wearing jeans so if i go in my shorts i'll probably stick out like a sore thumb!

xx
 
JJJ both outfits sound lush!! you should never mind what other people wear and wear whatever you feel most comfortable in ;). I say wear the shorts and stick out, why not have all eyes on you and your fab new figure :D
 
eh hum ... Tara, how's that positivity going??? How was WI hun?
 
yea, Tara, where ARE you???? get back on here we want to know how you did.

I still dont know what to wear! Going to ask my friend's opinion when she gets here.

I dont really want all eyes on me Dobbie!:eek: I still feel big even though i know i cant be if i am wearing size 10. It is SO weird. If anyone looked i'd be thinking they were looking coz my thighs were wobbling! lol

Just been watching my Take That DVD - it gets me all psyched up!:D I'm going to see them in December and I CANT WAIT!!!! I've even started dreaming about Mark - one was quite saucy:D

Anyway, housework done so going to jump in a bath and then go to pick ds up from nursery.

Chat later

So Jo, do you think we should be scared of Dobbie?? lol,

As for outfits they both sound great, tough choice there you have , try them on and see which you feel most comfy in hun, and remember to post a piccie,so we can see how fab you look!!!

I can also feel a wonderfull cold starting!!! oh great joy!!! happy days
xx
 
How annoying to stay the same Tara, it is so frustrating when it sticks but i'm sure that next week you will show a loss. Our bodies are really slowing down now arent they? its such a struggle.
As you say the good thing is that you havent put on and that has to be a good result in my book.

ds back at home now so just waiting for sil to arrive and start babysitting - then i can get ready!
 
It is annoying to stay the same but would so much rather that than put on!, any how, if next weeks weigh-in stays the same then i will give up the bars and go back to haveing shakes and tetras, as it does seem weird that the last 2 wks i have been havein 1 bar a day and both wks stayed the same!, i no they shouldent make a diffrence at our stage but hay u never know!.

I havent had a night out in ages, make sur you have a drink or 3 for me hun!, have you decided what to wear yet??
 
Morning

Feeling abit rough this morning:jelous: Last night was good but not a brilliant night out. Lots of people went home early and the atmosphere kind of disappeared by about 12. Ended up coming home myself about 1am.

Can you believe that there was really nothing suitable on the menu except fish which was double the price of anything else! plus i have fish every night at home so didnt really want it when i went out! Ended up having a greek salad, a quarter of a piece of garlic bread, and a fair amount of vodka,lime and sodas. When I got home I felt abit sick so thought i'd better eat something! Had a brown roll with lemon curd (dont know what it is with me and lemon curd when i've had a few!).

Woken up this morning with a headache, feeling abit sick and starving! So i've just eaten a cd bar as i knew i could be tempted with some toast if i didnt have something.

ds has got me up so got to face the hangover full on!:jelous:

Coffee here i come.........
 
morning hun,
shame last night wasnt a brilliant night, especially as you were so looking forward to it.
Is bad that the fish was double the price,but it is good to have something diffrent to what you normally have anyhow.
you know what, i havent had lemon curd in i dont know how long!!
poor you not being able to sleep some of the hangover off babe, drink loads of water hun and hope it starts to clear very soon xx
 
yea its a shame the night was abit of an anticlimax really. Still, it was nice to see some old school friends that i hadnt seen for quite a few months so we had a good catch up.

Feeling better now but still got abit of a headache and SO tired. Also I am absolutely ravenous:( my appetite is huge today. I think the alcohol and bread triggered it. I am so hungry that i know i'm going to go over so i'm just going to do damage limitation today and then hopefully be back to normal by tomorrow. Already had one bar, an apple, blueberries, a banana, 2 quorn sausages and some cabbage!
Desperate for some bread but i shall resist!

My friend has an art exhibition this evening so i'm going to the private viewing which will be nice. I'm taking ds and my brother. Will probably only be about an hour so wont be a late one.

What are your plans for the weekend Tara?

I havent been hungry today or yesterday due to having a cold, which started yesterday, had a bad night sleep due to it, if i wernt hot i were dam cold felt fluie with it during the night!

We are going to a firework party tonight, the same couple have done it for the last 2 yrs,and it is always a good evening.

The art exhibition your going to sounds good xx
 
awwww poor you, colds are a bummer! make sure you wrap up warm tonight hun and have fun.

I'm not feeling hungry at all now:) yipppeeee! I really thought i was going to have a tough couple of days but luckily i seem to have got right back on track without too much trouble - phew!:coffee:
 
Have a lovely evening jjj and Tara....hope you feel better soon as well Tara..take care
 
Thanks Maggie xx

hope you had a nice evening Tara. Are you feeling any better today?

The art exhibition was good. It was nice to see my friend's art work up for everyone to see - if you get a chance check out her work on
www.heatherstuart.co.uk. She's just started illustrating childrens books too.

We were home by 7.30pm so just chilled out for the rest of the evening.

Omg, i had really bad indigestion last night after my dinner. It was probably the after effects of friday night still working through my system! I managed to keep to 1000 plan yesterday though apart from the extra 2 quorn sausages at lunch time. Having said that, i didnt have any carb with my fish at dinner time so i probably kept totally within the limits.

Dont think i'll be going out again for at least 4 weeks and by then i really hope to be at goal.

Its raining here this morning:( Hate days like this as it often means we are stuck indoors which is so boring.

Have a good day hun
xxxx
 
Morning Jo,
I am feeling ok at the mo thankyou, by the way hows your mouth now Jo?.
Last night was good, had food there dont know how many cals i had, but i hadnt eaten all day apart from my cd shake and bar, one being i didnt feel that hungry and two i knew i was going out, and had just one small glass of wine while i was there, see some people i hadnt seen since befor starting cd and they were amazed at my weight loss and really pleased for me too which was nice.
Am pleased the art exhibition was good, i will go and look at her site in a min.
Well done on sticking to the plan yesterday hun.
I hope we are at goal in 4 weeks time hun, but the way i am going with weight loss i will probally still be trying to get to goal next year!!! lol
Its really windy here right now and we are ment to get the rain at lunch time oh great joy!!, mind you i wont be going out today any how as i want to get preped for the kiddies ging back to school tomorrow!, h2b is taking his girls home today, has been lucky with that as he has managed to get a work friend to drive him there and back today, will give the fella fuel money, but it means its an easyier run, as the girls live in portsmouth, normally do it by coach which either means doing the trip over 2 days or if done in one day it makes it extremly long day leaving here at about 6am and him not getting home till about 11pm!!

glad your h2b has someone to do the driving today - that is a long way! wow!

i know what you mean about it taking forever to reach goal. I have a feeling i might still be trying to get there in 6 months time! This last bit is so difficult! Still hopefully our bodies are getting settled into gradually eating more and so at the end of all this we will be well into maintaining without too many problems.

I'm so pleased you got some nice comments about your weight loss last night. Its great when you see someone you havent seen for ages and they looked shock (but in a nice way ofcourse:D)

I used to stay in for exactly the opposite reason. I didnt want to go out as i was worried i would bump into someone i hadnt seen since i was slim and they would look shocked at how much weight i had put on!!:eek: My social life has been on complete hold for over 3 years so i'm trying to make up for lost time now:D
 
forgot to say my mouth isnt too bad now thanks. The antibiotics seem to have got rid of the infection but its still hurting sometimes.

I havent got my appointment at the hospital until December!:eek: and that will just be a consultation so god knows when they will take the teeth out. I've asked to go on the cancellation list in the hope i'll get an earlier appt
 
glad your mouth is feeling better than it was huni, but omg your not at the hospital untill december!!

h2b's journey should be about 2 and a half hrs each way by car today, which is drasticly quicker than by coach!!!!

yep this last bit of weight is so darn difficult to shift isnt it !!, but yes hopefully it will make maintaining easier well fingers crossed anyhow to that!

It is deffo very good to get comments about our weight loss, and its is so good to see them shocked in a good way, hehe

I too hated going anywhere when i was bigger was always so paranoid that every eone was looking at me for being fat!!! but hay my head needs to play catch up real fast as even tho i know i lost the weightfrom the scales and by my dress size now but my head dont see it yet, does that make any sence??
