Size 10 screaming to get out!!

a diary blog is great!

I also keep track of my PH, sleep, exercise ect. Weight loss is about a healthy body.
 
Eeeeeee, a lovely cup o' tea :). Can't go on any longer without it so having a cup with skimmed milk. Won't have more than 2 a day. Had lots of comments about how nice I look today - must be the wedged shoes making my legs look good (just as well as can't walk in them). Despite Saturday's fall off the wagon still feeling positive about weight loss for this week and not very hungry so that's good xx
 
Awww well done jubbly :) not so good this end :( my little Monty is sick :(
 
I have had a terrible 'fall-off' on Saturday also, but I won't fill your diary pages with the food porn, suffice to say it involved a 5 course dinner at the dog racing (mega portions!!).

Sounds like you have done really really well upto now and easing off and allowing yourself the odd bit of chicken isn't the end of the world.

And as for suggesting an alcohol free lifestyle, you cannot be serious!!!
 
Oh no, get well soon Monty :(. Our Pilch has recurrent cystitis poor thing and I'm very ashamed to say that we haven't had the money in the last week or so to get her to the vet (she is my boyfriend's and he doesn't have insurance) but I have just ordered her some tablets online today. It's hard to make a cat drink cranberry juice!!

Teapig - an alcohol free lifestyle is seriously looking more appealing :D xx

Alcohol free lifestyle is a bit dramatic :p maybe just an alcohol reduced lifestyle? Though it's easy to say that sober, and harder to stick too after a few drinks! Haha. Poor pussy cat :( hope she feels better soon xx

Thanks Jen x
 
Another chicken leg from that chilled bit in TESCOs - I think I'm obsessed with them. I'm going to turn into a chicken at this rate. Bit annoyed as I wasn't that hungry, went to get meal replacement bars and then bought some on a whim. I wanted to try and 100% TS until WI. Ah well, nevermind. I've had plenty of water so that's good :D xx
 
Oh the weather is peeing me off tonight. The car is ALMOST FIXED yippee - there are 3 men doing blokey things outside whilst I'm curled up on the sofa with a chocolate shake. I've had to make 2 stupid trips out tonight, once for motor oil and once for power steering fluid.

Operation chiweenie has hit a snag. I went round to the neighbours and dropped in mega-hints about needing someone to come and let the puppy out for a wee in the day and all they said was that I should get a puppy when I will be around all day and can enjoy it growing up. Don't quite know when they mean exactly. Even if I had a baby (unlikely) then I'd probably be straight out to work!! I don't think I'll be doing much sitting around at home until I retire...

I have one more option - ask the landlady, who knows everyone in the village, if she knows someone who can come once a day and I come home once a day and then that should be enough until I get home. I might have to offer monetary incentive. It won't be for much longer than 2 months until I could come home just once in the day. Oh, what am I talking about, it's as if I've got my heart set now!!!

Bit fed up of diet today. Bit fed up in general. Want to eat something and curl up with Boo in front of the TV. Why won't the sun come back out???? xx

Aw love! I'm sorry you're feeling fed up today. Same here really, hence fell off wagon today lol!! And silly of your neighbors to propose something so impractical. Surely it does not take any effort at all to just let the dog out once a day. Honestly, some people. :rolleyes:
 
It usually is best to have a dog when you can be at home with him/her most of the day, otherwise some serious misbehavior can occur. I suggest a roomy crate and some music or talk radio for when you are away! My dogs are much more calm with something to listen to when my family is away for the day.
 
Right, operation chiweenie is back on. The amazing landlady has suggested that her and her husband, her parents AND the people who live opposite us, who we have never even met, can all help out. They have a "jug" (jack russel/pug) and it could even keep puppy company if puppy went to theirs to hang out (although worried it would never come back!!). I have also asked at work and it is possible I can bring puppy in in a crate and put him in the separate office (or under desk). This would make me feel so much better knowing it would have some company. Now to work on Boo.....!!

Lozza, I think it is the weather just being all rubbish and unpredictable making us feel fed up. Sorry to hear you fell off the wagon but I think we both have to credit ourselves with knowing that we are "normal" BMI and therefore perhaps these incidents are not all that bad. I ate/drank tonnes of carbs on Saturday but don't feel as it it's made too much difference to my losses. Don't beat yourself up. xx
 
Right - definite proof that the chocolate shakes are different. I just took one out for dinner tonight and it must have been one of the older ones in the cupboard as it tasted nice like the first batch. Wish they all tasted like that. I only have enough for about a week now...

We went to see the puppy. I thought it was adorable, really fluffy, well behaved, cuddly and cute. I would have happily have had it. Sadly though the owners (chavtastic) were annoying and saying we had to have him tonight or he would be gone tomorrow and I think it felt too much like the pressure was on to make such an important decision. Plus Boo says he didn't feel the love (don't know how not - massively super-puppy). Also, the mum was jumping all over us and all these people were in the lounge and smoking and it just wasn't really the best way of meeting him. Ho-hum, back to the drawing board although I now think Boo is just hoping I forget it. It's been a nightmare driving there and back tonight hence why I've only just had dinner....xx
 
Right, sneaky peek this morning and 9 stone 9 lbs so still lost 2lbs this week despite meal out. If I'm extra, extra good today and don't have any cheeky nibbles then I might even make 9 stone 8 lbs tomoz though won't get hopes up - happy if stay the same as today anyway. Picnic tomorrow - better get some chicken in :D. I'm making loads of coleslaw and bean salad for it - that's OK as I don't like either of them anyway.

Was going to go out tonight for dinner with Rach but she's cancelled and I'm quite glad as don't want to risk an extra lb tomorrow.

Appear to have settled into boring pattern thus:

First thing when I get into work - TESCO bar and can of Coke zero.
Followed by a skinny tea.
About 12pm - chocolate shake (although might have banana today and go crazy).
About 8-10 cups of water at work.
About 1ish - a cheeky bit of chicken.
When I'm home - another can of Coke zero.
About 7.30pm - chocolate shake. Another 2-3 pints of water.

Rock and roll!!!!

Going to have a little peek at puppies online now...xx

Ooh, 9 stone 9 lbs is also the lightest I've been since about May 2009 hurrah!!!
 
Oh, I was so going to be good. I did naughtily have 2 bars today as I thought that would be better than having chicken but then had to go shopping and ended up buying chicken anyway and, in typical bad eating kind of way, ended up stuffing 3 (chicken) thighs in my face really quickly and guiltily in the car park (hate secret guilty eating - used to do that with whole packs of cookies). Anyway, it's not so bad cos if I'm still 9 stone 9lbs I'm happy :). I just looked at the ingredients and that chicken has dextrose and brown sugar in it - the carbs are only 0.1g but surely the sugar may take me out of ketosis?? Ho-hum, I'm determined not to be so obsessed with ketosis this time - I haven't wee'd on one stick and I don't think it makes a jot of difference.

Made coleslaw - improvised and Boo confirmed that it was nice. Made bean salad. Just got to cross fingers for tomorrow's weather for the picnic.

Looking at a Jachuahua tomoz - 1/4 Jack Russell, 3/4 Chihuahua. Not really what I was looking for but kinda cute so I'm keeping an open mind. There's also 2 Jachshunds - 1/2 Jack Russell and 1/2 Dachshund - in Chelmsford but I don't know if they don't look a bit grumpy on the website. Work confirmed I can take puppy in yippee :).

Chiropracter told me I have very weak muscle tone in my stomach tonight - like I didn't know that!! He's making me do awful exercises to try and tighten it all up. Hope that's not chiropracter speak for "you're a bit flabby"? xx
 
Ooooh, Boo is totally in love with the chihuahua/JR mix we are seeing tomorrow and has already decided he wants it I think! Ironic really as I'm now thinking I'm not so keen on the chihuahua idea as I'm scared that they are yappy and unfriendly....x
