    I'm such a glutton, I blew it, such a dimbo. Not regained it all, but enough of it. Totaslly focused now, I was too smug and thought I'd got it sussed..... no more arrogance.
    I ave a dodgy H, so sometimes I will sound dead common, on occasion dead stupid and rarely, pig ignorant. Sometimes I may be these things, but I will always blame it on my dodgy H.

    Sorry, I'm a bit of a grumble weed today, no offence intended ... well it might be, but I'll be sorry.

    Sweet, choose two heathy eating a, and one or two healthy eating b daily, on either original (red) or green, along with all your free food (depending on whether green or red) plus your daily sins.

    Thanks, that's clear as mud to me!! :o:rotfl:
    Sorry, I think it's just the wrong time of the month for me to actually understand anything, maybe I should wait a couple of weeks :o

    Up far too early this morning :( Hubby got up to go to the loo at 5am & I've been wide awake ever since :mad: I really wanted a couple of good sleep-ins this weekend as well. Grrrr.

    Oh well, off to play chicktionary :wave:

    Booo me too, i'm off to work also.

    Was a really long day yesterday, didn't stop as we were extra short staffed, my legs were throbbing and my feet felt like they had pins and needles so had a shower, lay on bed and put feet up the wall (higher than heart) for ten mins, sposed to drain excess fluid away, and it really works!

    Feel fine this morning, it'll take some getting used to though.
    Dont think i'll have much of a social life, 10am-7pm every other day, i'll be working one and sleeping the other :sad:

    Good for my diet tho, shake for brekkie, meal in work and was too tired to eat when i came home :T

    Booked in for "aqua challenge" at the local pool on Tues. Have roped in OH, sister and her hubby in too. Don't like the sound of the "challenge" bit. :( Now where is my lacy body??:D

    Sweet, I used the think of SW Healthy Extra "A" as fibre. It is usually cereal, wholemeal bread, ryvita. "B" was calcium - so milk, cheese etc. There's a bit more to it but that is pretty much why you include two portions of "A" and one or two of "B" every day.

    Off to do my wii personal trainer thing now. The computer sprite says things like "keep it going, just 5 more reps" so I like to hurl abuse and curse at her. very cathartic. Hope I don't do that at aqua fit. :o

    Afternoon peeps :wave:

    well i still don`t know what i`m doing lol, went to Aldi and bought loads of deli meats - the stuff i`m supposed to be using up before the SW woe!

    Looks like i`m doing another week of lcing now :p

    I also have lots of salady bits too so todays food so far was no brekkie as i was out at the shops with Dad doing the supermarket run, dinner was cheese, salami, garlic sausage and pastrami and tea will be tuna salad.

    I think that tomorrow will be much the same but with scramblies and mushrooms for brekkie.

    We don`t have an Aldi close by so when DH offered to drive to the closest one yesterday i couldn`t say no, today was Morrisons so we have tons of food in now and i`ve not spent half as much as i thought that i would. Need to tally up the receipts later for the GC.

    Managed to get a pair of sandals yesterday for the hols,couldn`t find any clothes though so looks like i`m stuck, DH decided to try to find some bits for me to try on, gawd knows why he picked what he did - needless to say i came home with nowt *rolls eyes*

    He picked out the type of stuff that i could wear years ago, not a chance now. Wish he`d be a bit more realistic. I couldn`t even find any jeans that fit me either.

    I can`t seem to sleep very well atm so i think that i`m going to have a nap and then make the salad, some wine needs fiddling about with later and i need to clean the bedroom as the bedding is on the line and i`m not putting it back on until i`ve dusted and hoovered!

    Feel very disorganised today so hopefully once i`ve had a nap i`ll feel better and my energy levels will have bounced back.

    Sarah - Sorry to hear about your Mum (((HUGS)))

    Sweet - I used to have a scanned copy of a SW booklet which explained everything. I`m not sure if i`ve still got it but if i find it i`ll let you know.

    Have a good afternoon guys.

    Planning on starting the GC again soon :p

  • Hi everyone!:hello:

    I hope you don't mind if I stop lurking and join in a little. It's been really good to read about everyone's diet adventures. :)
    I am hoping to drop a dress size before my holiday at the end of August but I am finding it really tough. The diet part isn't so bad (I'm broke so can't afford chocolate or crips lol:rotfl:) but I know I need to get of my butt and do some exercise!!:D

    So that's my little [STRIKE]moan[/STRIKE] story lol! And I really hope you don't mind if I join you all. :cheesy:

    It's horrible being in that phase.. So hard to get out of. Wallow in it for a while, but keep all your senses pricked ready for anything which you could manipulate into helping to drag you out of it! :)

    My day was pretty rubbish, but I got through it and ended it with a lovely walk with the boys (dog, boys, OH). Didn't bother about food: a few peanuts and a couple of oatcakes lasted the day and some nice chicken with crackers before we went out.

    Life's like a circuit course heh. From depressed to happy in a few hours. Wonder what tomorrow will bring...

    Psh! Just realised I tried to quote 4.. will it only do 3? Welcome Mystery-Lover. They didn't seem to mind me joining in, so I think it's safe to say that it's nice to have you here too :)
