Toilet troubles!!!!

I went to see Caitlin sing at the Norfolk Music Festival. Found a seat right in the middle so i could see the stage properly and had Ollie sat on my lap (he was a good boy and slept all the way through) Well..... about half way through the first song i realised i needed a pee! (even though i'd been before i left the house) but being sat in the middle i had 10 people either side of me that would have to move if i got up to go! So theres my little girl stood up on stage singing her little heart out and theres me sat dead centre with my legs crossed really wishing they'd sing faster so i could get up and go. It then occurs to me that after carrying a very large Ollie around for 9 months that my pelvic floor may not be up to the stress of holding it in for that long and i start having visions of a puddle on the chair when i get up!! I started jiffling around in my chair like i had ants in my pants wishing that i hadn't drunk so much water this morning (only had a couple of glasses and a cup of tea) until i they'd finished so i could get up and leg it! Made it just in time!
Moral of the story - when doing Cambridge make sure you can get to a toilet - FAST!!
Anyway - now having a cuppa :coffee: & staying close to the loo! :8855:

will just had my first shake of the day. Banana and as usual it was yum. Had a glass of water also and I am now ready for the day. Off now to do a few jobs & sort out lunch for the kids.

 

[da-na-na-na]

2 shakes, 1 brew and 2 glasses of water down...
BRING ON THE COMPLETION OF DAY 21!
RAAAAH lol

 

[Rayven]

I know i'm not supposed to have the bars until week 3 but i was dying for something to eat & thought a bar and a glass of water would be better than cheese on toast and a bag of crisps! I feel better for having it so will have another shake for tea tonight.

Hey Rayven, I completely get what you mean about being addicted to this site! I seem to be on it all the time, searching, reading. I feel like I can actually talk to someone about this and everything else that goes with being overweight with people who understand.

Those ideas with the shakes are great guys, I think you should start a thread!

I'm in day 8 now and I'm feeling good but I have to stop living to do the diet and introduce the diet into my life instead. Doeas that even make sense? It seems like it is my first thought in the morning and my last thought at night. I suppose cos it's still early stages but my mind is constantly occupied by the diet, this website and dreaming about the future!

Anybody else feel this way?

Keep strong!

 

[Rayven]

Hey Sonya - i understand exactly what you mean. For me when i did it before i didn't want to go out and socialise because it would be too tempting to eat and drink with other people (nothing worse than standing in a pub sipping water while your friends are getting merry) & i get up in the morning and automatically wonder, if i step on the scales how much will i have lost today - think about getting that water down me - dreaming of my next WI and how much smaller i'll be......

OMG! We really should get out more!! :8855:
I spend most of my time on here reading stories, looking at photo's, playing the arcade because it gives me something to keep me occupied (i'm a BIG boredom eater)

 

[Twingo31]

Right hopefully i will be ok today - i've only had one shake and am off to a meeting until 4 so will not have the opportunity to have any more until i get home at 5:30 ish. Which leaves me with 2 to have tonight to keep me going through the difficult evening period.

 

[sonya]

Hey Rayven, I gather you have kids too. It's so difficult to socialise with kids. I've now become accustomed (a little forcefully) to feeding the kids, putting them to bed and then spending my evenings alone so therefore I need to talk to people which is why I'm on the internet and because all I can think about is this diet at the moment, all I do is come onto this website!!!

I did have a boyfriend and we split up last week (coincidentally when I lost my appetite) and therefore I'm missing so much that coming on here is great therapy.

Do you have a partner?

 

[bubblegomme]

Hi 100% Thursday people!

Just reading through your posts, just want to say to all the people that have children well done! I dont know how you do it. I live alone, boyfriend is still new so not moved in together yet and I find it hard enough! It must be so hard having to cook for the children and shop in the supermarkets!

This site is really starting to lift my spirits regarding weight loss. I haven't visited the site for so long I feel out of touch... I know I definately want to restart tomorrow, and I refuse to set myself up to fail...

I had a chat with my mam on the phone, and she said if I put it in my mind that I am gonna fail, I will. She has told me to do this for myself and no one else, and if I want to succeed and want this badly enough, then I will succeed...

Hope everyone is having a fab day!

 

[saraian24]

Its a pain having kids sometimes when doing cd, but i ve had better days then bad ones - yesterday was a struggle day. Today is a good day - gosh i better cook them their dinner actully its getting late!

Hey hun, yeah i have 3 kids! I must be mad!!! And a hubby (who loves his food even more than me - if thats possible!) My two girls are from a previous relationship - i split with their Dad 3 months after having the second & lost a LOT of weight over the stress of that tbh. I was then a single Mum for 2 and a half years before meeting my hubby (on an online dating site of all places...Don't laugh! lol) we got married last year ( the wedding pics are horrendous - i look like a marshmallow!) & i had our son just before Christmas.
I know what you mean about having to use the internet to socialise when you have kids - i'm on it all the time!! Its the only way i get to meet people!! (I'm soooo sad! lol) Plus the hubby does a job where he sometimes works nights so its good to come on when i'm on my own.
I put on 4 stone since my OH moved in with me - and its seriously time to do something about it - i still cook for him and the kids and sometimes the food bothers me - but i'm so determined to lose the flab this year that I WILL NOT EAT! (i've been saying that a lot lately!)

Sorry to hear about you and your partner - it is hard when you split up & are on your own with the kids and i don't want to sound patronising hun but it DOES get easier.......I'm always about if you wanna chat. :hug99:

Anyway - just got back from picking up the kids from school and did 20 minutes on the mini-stepper but now my face looks as red as a baboons backside!!!

 

[sonya]

Hey thanks for your support Rayven. My partner luckily (in some deluded way) is not the father of my kids and I'm used to be a single mother so that makes it easier!

I really hope you do succeed and I always think that a bit of competition always makes it exciting! I want to lose 4.5st by July. I'm sure I'll make it as I took the kids to MD's and I didn't have a single bite!!! Yay!

I have two children and they are both under 5. My girl the eldest is great, she has her moments of course but my son is a nightmare at times. He's great fun to be around and polite but then he'll go draw on the walls! Last night he did this and I told my daughter that he would be in big trouble. My daughter got up early this morning and together they had scrubbed it all off! I'm so proud of her.

Anyway, I've gone on and on but hey that is what this is for right? Do you have a facebook account Rayven?
