oh my days i have had one hell of day. Hubby has had the whole weekend off work which he has not done for I don't know how long. Felt like my space was being invaded LOL Spent the day packing up orders so hubby was left looking after the kids, not always a good thing when the little ones don't want to do what he wants them to do. Anyway when I am busy food is always the last thing on my mind so by 4pm I had drunk 3 litres of water but had no packs. Grabbed a Nut and Raisin Bar while I finished up then more water and my porridge around 6.30. Will have a shake around 9.30 tonight.
The scales saga continues and I know I am being irrational and emmotional but I just can't get a grip :cry: my scales today are showing anything between a 2lb gain to a 5lb gain which is just impossible. I have been 100% TS, had at least the minimum required water. I actually want to cry despite knowing that the scales are messed up. Hubby proved that to me, he stood on them 5 times and each time showed a different weight. I have been in a foul mood and everyone was driving me mad. Hubby does not get it or maybe it is just me - weigh day is so important to me, gives me the drive to carry on another day, another week and now i wont be able to weigh first thing in the morning and will have to take a different reading off different scales. I actually feel traumatised, it is ridiculous I am feeling like this. I did slimming world a couple of months back and lost 7lb on the first week and despite being 100% the second week I gained 2lb. I actually left in floods of tears and sat outside my house in the car for about half an hour before I could compose myself and go in.
The plan I have from now is I am not buying another set of scales. I am going to go to Boots each monday and weigh there, stops me standing on t scales every time i go to the loo. At least I wont be in a bad mood when they show me something I dont like.
It is funny how despite all this I have still not once been tempted to eat - that is the usual defence mechanism for me, get stressed and eat crap and loads of it.

You're a beautiful human being that needs to be as compassionate to yourself like you are to others.
