LRO...name needs to change, I think ;(

[Less Rotund One]

How nice are you all????? Still posting in my diary even when I am being THE most lax person in the whole world. Thank you so very, very, much.

Well. Been bad, been lazy, been off my diet....been gaining weight...that about sums it up really.

Haven't even weighed myself in ages cos I'm too scared....

Back on plan today rolleyes: - heard it all before, I hear you shout!) but I am so annoyed with myself - but being annoyed won't shift the weight....only getting my fat butt in gear will.

So, I am not weighing in - I am using my clothes to tell me how I am doing - yes, all those lovely clothes sitting in my wardrobe which just wont sit well on my body anymore. I am down to about 2 pairs of trousers that I can still wear without it looking too obscene for words - long tops have been my saviour.

I seem to put most of my weight on round my boobs - OH not complaining....but it means that my nice new coats wont fasten properly without a gapping bit....joy.

So, send me all your diet willpower vibes - I will need them.

Had a very nice Christmas and New year. Hope you all did too.

Welcome back.

 

[Twiggy]

Welcome back Rosie ... I'm sure it won't be long before you're impressing and motivating us all again with your exercise stories

Twigs

[fitz]

Hey you - lovely to see you xx
Happy New Year & Welcome back

 

[Less Rotund One]

Thanks again for visiting me and not sulking cos I've been awol! You are all stars.....

Welcome back Rosie ... I'm sure it won't be long before you're impressing and motivating us all again with your exercise stories

Erm, yeh, right...exercise....what's that again???? Maybe break myself in gently methinks!

Well, I actually got on the scales this morning - I thought that being scared of a number was just stupid - and I know how motivating it is to see the number change (in the right direction of course....- just need to be careful if it doesn't )

So, publicly declaring that I am officially a fallen dieter - I am back up to 10st 8lbs!!! So that means that I put on 8lbs in my splurge (I had already put on 9 if you remember way back when)

So, I need to get a new ticker sorted out. I did have a good day yesterday so all good there.

I reckon I need therapy for my lack of control on food. I seem to have a switch that is either ON or OFF - for food and exercise. When I am in ON mode, I am like a total obsessive and can lose quickly, easily and do my exercise - then when the switch goes to OFF its like a different person. Weird. Buy hey. Feeling positive that by this time next month, I might actually be wearing a different pair of trousers!

Hi Rosie

I can relate to the On Off switch! Lets hope we can both keep the power going this time around!

 

[Less Rotund One]

Day 3 and all is well.....feeling good and motivated. Thank God for mini's keeping me sane!

 

[fitz]

Well done !!!
You'll soon be shifting those few xmas visitors lol

 

[mommyB]

[Kater-tater]

[CCPM]

Thanks Bev - fingers crossed. another good day today.

Hello Rosie, only just realised you were back-good to see you and good luck with your restart !!

Cant get rid of me that easy, Janey. Back with a vengeance - determined to get back to 9.7. I will, I will, I will.

well done for havign a good 3 days. i agree with the switch thing,i think mine goes off at 9 o clock each night as have gone voer my points after a good day. although mine seems to never be on for excercise!

Thanks for popping by Katie - your name is way too tempting though for minis

You are here now and we'll help keep that switch turned off, just keep popping in

NO, M. Switch needs to be ON - that's good...ON is obsessive dieter and exerciser. Its kind of half on at the moment

So, Day 4 and all is well. Just had a mushroom omelette and I feel really bloated. Not sure why - usually fine with eggs

 

[blackwidow]

so you're WW'ing are you? good luck - you can do this and you'll have those pounds gone in no time

just remember how amazing you looked without those few extras last year you looked fantastic!

lovely to have you back xxx

 

[Less Rotund One]

Thanks, Rach - I seem to have gotten my head in gear this time - so keeping my fingers crossed that it lasts.

Friday went well - nice quorn stir fry for tea - used the beef style ones for a change and they are really nice - they were reduced in Waitrose so thought I would give them a go. So low in points.

Saturday - cold and snowy outside so getting on with my knitting. I will post a pic of my aran cabling as I am very proud of myself

 

[CCPM]

You should be proud cable knitting is no easy feat. I think I might follow your example as I used to knit a lot. Perhaps if I can get some wool and a pattern via the internet I could get going on one for OH for his return.

Keep on going Rosie you will soon see those pesky pounds off
