Time to get organised and get on with it!

I was at a family gathering yesterday and, though self-praise is no praise, I resisted the tempting goodies on offer in the buffet and contented myself with cold meats and salad and a couple of sausages. My lost pound has stayed lost. :A

Yesterday I saw people I hadn't seen for a while and I got loads of compliments. I was wearing a nice dress that I've had for ages but I hadn't worn before (it didn't fit) and my lovely nude Kurt Geiger shoes. To be honest, I am now only the weight I always was - the weight I was in November - but I think I am less bloated. Also I can really see a difference in my skin, thanks to the healthy eating. Someone told me I had the secret of the youth and to tell them what it was.

Anyway, enough of the bragging - just want to say if you are thinking of adopting healthier eating - when you are resisting that biscuit or that hot cross bun - the results are well worth it - I felt so good yesterday.

Hi jwil

Hope you feel brighter later I'm here if you need to chat

I actually managed to sleep last night for a good few hours so feel somewhat refreshed I've loads to catch up on though but currently am decluttering surveys Best get myself listing some stuff on the bay of e soon though! x

Hope everyone has a good day x

Yay for a good night's sleep - I too had a good night's sleep and then spent another couple of hours in bed finishing off my book - naughty!:p

Lots to do today, need to get a few more bits for the kitchen as the nice man is coming on Monday to do some minor renovations. Pity about the horrible rain.

Have fun doing your surveys, DDFW.

jwil

Thanks guys, I'm slowly improving

DDFW - glad you got a good night's sleep, it makes a big difference I know.

peaceandfreedom - well done on the weightloss, and what great comments you got! Do be proud of yourself, and you should be pleased with what you've achieved. It's things like that that do keep up the motivation :T :j

There's also nothing nicer than staying in bed with a good book

I am completely shattered today.

We've spent all day continuing to sort out the stuff we started the other day. So progress has been made and we have got a load for car boot now.

I'm disappointed that I haven't achieved as much as I'd hoped this holiday - I'd hoped to make a lot more space, but we have achieved good stuff anyway. I'm also disappointed that I didn't get a day where I could just sit and read all day, but I might try for that one tomorrow

I've had a few sales on ebay tonight, so that's all good. I got a rude message from someone earlier about something I was selling, so that annoyed me :mad: I just told them to politely sod off and blocked them

Hope everyone has had a good day.

Do, you deserve it. :T You have achieved a lot and I think often we set too high a target for ourselves and that's why we feel we haven't achieved enough. Jwil, you have achieved LOADS - well done. You probably feel a little bit down because your holiday is nearly over as well - that's always a bit of a downer.

Well done on the sales and well done on telling the stoopid ebayer to sod off - honestly some people should just not be allowed to communicate online until they have proved they are not ignorant tw*ts.

Jwil, I command you to have a lovely day cosied up with a good book tomorrow. And this is for you because you are wonderful. :kisses3:

Hi DedicatedDFW :-). Thanks for reading my ramblings ....... I know what you mean about just reading, some days that's all we have time for Xx. Looking forward to getting to know you all better.

Have an Enchanting day!

peaceandfreedom

Hee hee, well after feeling so good about myself yesterday, today I'm having a fat day - you know those days where you just feel and look, well, FAT.

Oh well, never mind, no-one is going to see me today - loads of stuff to do - stripping wallpaper in the kitchen and generally clearing it out, as well as various other jobs.

It's very cold out but the sun is shining - have a great day everyone. :j

Sorry you are having one of those days. All that wallpaper stripping will soon burn off some calories though


Have a good day, and it sounds like you'll have a completely new house by the time you are done!

It makes a huge difference when the sun is out, doesn't it.
