Thank you everyone for posting on my thread even when I wasn`t here :heartpump: I tried to keep up with you all, But don`t know my pw so I couldn`t log on to reply :rolleyes::(

I have been totally rubbish this week :(

I know I`m harping on, But the porridge thing really threw me and I`m STILL suffering the after affects of it now :cry: and I think it just put me totally off track and I`m just not "there" :(

I`m more or less just doing "healthy eating" with a couple of shakes thrown in at the moment, But other things have been creeping in this week and the water and shakes have gone out the window :( I`m dreading WI tomorrow as I KNOW I`ll have gained because I`ve been having a lot of carbs this week/end and they`re what make me balloon :cry:

I went to Portsmouth to see friends I haven`t seen for nearly 2 yrs and we went for an indian. Where I live, When I ask if they use flour to thicken the sauces etc they look at me as if I have 10 heads as they don`t understand what I`m saying about the wheat/gluten thing, So I haven`t had an Indian for a long long time! The restaurant we went to were brilliant and explained what they put in the Tikka Masala etc so I thought sod it, I am going to have this meal and ENJOY it as it`s been so long.

I also had half a bottle of Shiraz Rosé as it was cheaper to buy a bottle of that than buy a glass of Coke! So my friend and I shared it. OMC I was WASTED!! :eek: :rotflmao: as it`s been so long since I`ve had a drink, And I hadn`t really eaten during the day before the meal.

Last night I made a home made Chicken & Veg Dhansak and home made "Pilau Rice" so yet more carbs etc :(

And twice during last week I went to Starbucks after work wth friends and had their gluten/wheat free sandwich, A Skinny Latté and one 1 of the days, Also had a GF Choc Brownie :(

Another day during the week, I had some Cadburys chocolate :(

I am a big fat FAIL at the moment :( My head just isn`t in it :(

I`ve still been under my calorie goal to lose weight for my height/weight, But it`s not what I`m sposed to be eating on 1000 plan and has been more like 1200/1400 cals :(

I`m off out later to celebrate a friends birthday. We`re going to see Black Swan at the cinema and are sposed to be going for drinks too. There was talk also of a meal.

So far, I`ve only had 1 tetra today. I am going to have a small bowl of my GF cereal but won`t have anything else until I go out and will stick to Coke if we go for a drink and at the cinema. If we do go for a meal, I`ll suggest Frankie & Bennys so that I can have Steak which I think I can get away with - Along with a small salad.

I`ve also been rubbish at taking my Thyroxine this week :eek: So I feel all bloated :( Though some of that will be from all the carbs I`ve been eating :/

DREADING WI tomorrow :( I KNOW it`s going to be bad :cry:

Sorry this is such a whingy post :(

You`re all doing amazingly, Well done :D Proud of you all! Xxx

 
Ah, Lise --

It's okay. You'll get back into it... and you'll be fine. We're not facing any deadline but ones in oue own heads.

MM
 
Thanks MM x

I`m just annoyed at myself because when I`m "in the zone", I just get my head down and I can do what I need to do.

I think I also get complacent when I`m nearing my goal :sigh: It`s like some sort of self sabotage?? I did this last time. I got to where I was nearing my goal so I decided to continue on my own, But didn`t quite do it and let the carbs creep back in :(

I really am dreading my WI tomorrow now :( Usually, My wedding ring is so loose it`s hanging, But today I can hardly move it as my fingers are so puffed up :cry: I`m now suspecting that there may have been some sort of contamination at the Indian as I`m so bloated :( But a lot of it will be due to having so many carbs this week.

I`ve decided to make either an omelette or some scrambled egg for "brunch" (not eaten yet today) instead of the GF cereal as I need to lay off the carbs now for a bit!

Sorry for whinging again :rolleyes: x
 
Hi Lise,

No need to apologise -- it's all good. Yes, cut back on the carbs and you'll debloat in no time. I think the sodium in the Indian food is the culprit.

I self-sabotage... I know I do. Losing the weight will not fix everything in my life that needs fixing -- so, if I never lose it all, then I keep fixated on this issue and not deal with the others. I am working on this.

MM
 
I wonder if I can claw things back as long as I`m good today/tomorrow? :sigh:

I have an earlier WI tomorrow - 5.30pm. I usually do it after I finish work at 9pm.

I`ve just eaten and had 100g of low fat cottage cheese with some florette salad and I poured some of the Dhansak "gravy" from last night over the top of it. Looked a bit mingy LOL but tasted nice! :D

I think tomorrow, I`ll make some vegetables and pour the rest over to make a sort of veggie curry for lunch :D I don`t know the cals etc in it as it`s home made and has a bit of everything in it lol

If we go for a meal after the cinema, I am going to have steak with a small salad :D

REALLY hoping I can pull things back :( I don`t mind if I get a STS but I really don`t want (but am expecting) a gain :(

*boo*hiss* at us and our self sabotage. I hope you can get your issues sorted Xx
 
Good luck with your WI today....
 
Morning Lise -- I hope work goes well today.

MM
 
Shanny,

She posted on FB that her daughter is poorly and she stayed home from work today to take care of her. I think she said that her husband was unwell, too.

MM
 
Sorry for being so slack on here :(

I`ve been bobbing on and off but only just had time to catch up on diaries, *think* I got to them all now ;)

Well, I have come to a decision this week, My heart just isn`t in it to do CD anymore. I`m more or less just doing healthy eating with a couple of tetras thrown in and for what they`re costing me, I really don`t think they`re making a huge difference to any weight loss really.

I have decided to try the RC classes. I will still do my own thing re healthy eating, Won`t be buying the RC food or anything. But I will still have the discipline of being weighed and the clincher for me, Is that I will also get to go to an exercise/dance class where exercise is something I need more than dieting and I can do all of this for £6 a WEEK as opposed to £4 a DAY and I think I will actually lose more weight this way as I will be doing a lot more exercise (I hope!!!).

Especially as they have an offer on at the moment where you can join and get the firs five weeks for only £29 which includes free portion control pots (another thing I need guidance on I feel), a tape measure thingy, a dvd and books.

Not sure my family will be impressed mind you as I`ll be using the portion pots for them too :p;) Especially hubbie!! :p

I am hoping I can stay here with you guys though? You`re my lifeline and I`d miss you all, Even though I`m sometimes patchy with my posting.

I should have more time on here for a few days as my little one has been dx by the out of hours dr as having tonsilitis and scarlet fever :( Therefore, She is going to be off school which means I will have to take time off work. Obviously I`m not going to be neglecting her to sit on here :p But I will have more time than usual to jump on ;) :D

I think I will do one more week of CD as I don`t want to just dump it on my CDC that I`m not going to do it anymore as she is lovely and I don`t think that`s fair. I`m dreading WI tomorrow night as my scales have STS and she usually weighs me heavier so I`m hoping hers don`t show another gain :( Last week showed a 2lb gain which I know will have been water from the indian/rice/alcohol etc but still meh :rolleyes:

Hope everyone is having a great weekend Xxx
