    Splodz - Pizza express have a new range of 'light' pizzas so you could always go for one of those - they also have the calories listed somewhere on their website which made me feel really bad when I looked at it after just eating there so maybe don't do that....

    A friend once told me that some of their pizzas are better than their salads :confused:;)... looks like the pizzas are between 700 and 900 calories total. After that much bread I'm not hungry enough for anything else. Got my graze box for tomorrow (if it turns up on time this time!) so if I have an egg and some strawberries for breakfast (not in the same bowl!!) I reckon that'll be me done. Just have to keep away from the sicillian lemonade which I love coz it's full of sugar!

    Definitely an interesting exercise putting calories next to everything I eat in my food diary. I know it's only my first day and giving up sugary foods is the challenge here, but it's making me think about everything I'm eating even my main meals which can only be a good thing I think! :o
    Life is all about the journey.

    OMG I AM LIVID WITH THE SCHOOL

    after the problems before half term, they got my letter today (a very strongly worded letter), and they called to explain there side of things. They first of all told me that BOY A had indeed broken his wrist in the incident, and wasnt in school today as he had a hospital check up, but assured me that all was being dealt with and they would sit down with the said boy tomorrow to sort things out.

    DD was called into a meeting with year head and teacher with another boy who was a witness and the whols story was gone over with witness boy confirming everything i had written in my letter. May i add that witness boy is very very good friends with BOY A so has no reason to cover for DD.

    Everything that was said was relayed back to me and so far i was happy-ish with the way it was dealt with UNTIL.....

    DD came out of school when she got home I asked her how everything went with meeting etc.. and how the rest of the day was.

    She got a bit upset and said that 2 boys have been picking on her saying that she broke BOY As arm and she is going to pay for doing that.

    DD told them to go away and they do seem to have slinked off!!

    I then called the school and spoke to the head of year again, to say what had happened with the 2 boys. to which she informed me 'well they are not lying are they, it is a fact that DD did break BOY As arm'!!!!!

    The fact that had BOY A not tried to strangle DD from behind and push her to the floor then he would of fallen with her on his arm and he wouldnt of broken it seems to have excaped them totally!!!!

    She said the meeting tomorrow was going to be about getting the 2 of them to be friends again and not a meeting for a punishment or anything!!! she said i would have to take it to the headmaster if i wanted punishment sorted out.

    I also found out toda, that BOY As mum does not know what happened at all. As far as she is aware he fell whilst playing on the field and broke his arm. The head of year also confirmed to me that she has had no contact with the boys mum at all.

    Basically they are trying to hush it all up and hope it goes away. And they also just keep saying well BOY A has come off a lot worse, we think he will of learnt his lesson!!! As far as i know BOY A has been thoroughly spoilt in half term (friends with one of his freinds mum) due to his family all feeling sorry for him breaking his arm.

    I did state to her that DD will not be apologising for anything that may have happened and i also said to head of year if they try and make her apologise DD has been instructed to refuse and ask them to phone us.

    I am calling the headmaster in the morning for an urgent meeting as it is disgusting that they are now feeling all sympathy for BOY A and basically saying DD is ok so get over it.

    To say i am livid is an understatement. I am so angry i could cry with frustration.

    In one sense i want her to have a happy last 6 weeks at junior school, but also dont want boy to get away with it. DD says all she wants is for BOy A to get punished and told off and then forget it, but the school have basically said that is not going to happen, and DD should just forget it.

  • Hi divadee,
    i'm really sorry that the incident is being handled so appallingly by the school - it seems completely ridiculous and i think you are right to speak to the head about it... i'm not surprised that you are so angry as they seem to be completely ignoring the way your daughter has been treated and feels.

    Hugs

    Splodz hun if you are doing calorie counting have a look at this it will then tell you how many calories you need to eat to stay your current size. In order to lose 1lb you have to have 3500 calories than the amount they tell you a week. So if it says 2250 calories a day you need to aim for 1750 a day if that makes sense. My dad did it and has lost a lot of weight but I forget about calories so its no good to me xx
    You never know how strong you are until being strong is the only choice you have.
