Went to the football yesterday, and drinks etc afterwards which was good

Been at work today which was very booooooooooooooring - came home early!

Just put pizza in the oven then going to find something to watch on iplayer - probably last night's Corrie

Need to close this diary and start one for next year but I'm not feeling motivated like everybody else seems to be (on diaries and SAID) so I haven't really got a plan for next year :rolleyes:

Work very dull at my end too....I hope they don't check how much internet time we had today or I will be out of work :eek:

Shoegal, don't feel bad if you don't have a plan. Sometimes I read your diary or others and am super-impressed with all the good intentions and great plans and meanwhile I'm just bobbing along like normal and not really feeling like committing to any great changes.

Why not just start a new diary without any great plan or even just put down your long term plan of clearing debts whilst having a life?

Hey Shoe Gal,

feels like ages since I've been here.

I wouldnt worry too much about having loads of new plans or diary. I'm keeping my same old diary because I love the title which you came up with

There are so many areas I want to change or improve but am not so hot on the multi tasking so have just decided to focus on losing weight & being frugal & keeping the home clutter free & tidy.

Glad to hear that you have been out & doing a bit of socialising :j I was very excited when I first started work at the thought of possible new bf's, then got rather despondent when realised that eveyone apart from me & one other guy was already in a couple :rolleyes:. I'm now taking the view that any one of these peeps may have a single friend so have decided to take up any social opportunities that come my way. Have been in the wildenress too long .

Need to lose 20lbs & start new healthy eating plan tomorrow. Not going to try any faddy stuff, just aim to lose 1lb per week by only having occasional treats until I reach my target then will only need to maintain that weight/size.

Measured myself this morning & it's no wonder I cant fit into any of my jeans; my hips have expanded by nearly 5, yes 5 inches :eek:

I've also accepted that since turning thirty-ten means I will have to work a bit harder at keeping trim but am determined to succeed. (more determined than paying off the debts actually but :shhh:)

Keep cheerful oh fabulous one & never forget that :A

Don't worry about the hips - I now weigh the heaviest I ever have
