Lose Weight 12

jojilufc

Evening all.

Sorry but rant coming...
Went out last night to DS football presentation night (he got 3 trophies:D ) and there was a buffet. Was helping uncover food when the coach said "quick you can go first now!" I was so good and just had some salad:D but my so called mate I havent seen for a while said "why have you just got that?" I said I didnt want to sabotage my weight loss, to which she said "why have you lost some weight??" When I said I'd lost almost 2 stone she looked my up and down, "Where from??" was what came out of her bi***y mouth...:mad: :eek: I was gutted and went crawling back to DH for some moral support:o

He said she's just jealous, cos she's put some on!!

Feeling a bit better today, went shopping and got some stuff for my hols... one skirt was a size 10!!!:D Think it was sized wrong tho:rotfl: :rotfl:

Thanks for listening, OH says just forget it but it's not that easy once you've heard someone say something like that to you:mad:

jojilufc I just wanted to say try not to let it get to you - there's always someone who'll want to bring you down...she is probably just jealous. You've done a fantastic job, losing almost 2st and you should feel very proud of that!

Its hard to forget hurtful words, but you managed to get into a size 10 skirt today, and I'll bet she didn't!

Take care

Hiya,

Like you Ishtar, I had to respond.
Jojilufc, after reading your post, my mouth was hanging slack in shock! Honestly, some people :mad: :mad:
It never ceases to amaze me how pathetic/insensitive they can be.

Please bear in mind that your 2 stone loss is impressive, and the will power that you showed by piling you dish with salad was even more so, expecially as you had every reason to celebrate with your DS's success! Goodness know to celebrate I would have tucked into the prawn vol au vonts!!

Just hold in your mind what a much better person you are... in every respect. :A

Hi all,
just thought I'd pop in. Well done to all the losers and welcome to the fellow newbies. Can I just double check that Wednesday is weigh in day if your doing it on your own. I've had some good days and some naughty days so I'm not holding out much hope for a loss. Gonna have to be extra good for next couple of days.

Hi Mistywoo - yes, the chart is posted on Wednesday evening, so if you post your weight loss before then I'll include it.

Thanks, LL

Good Evening All

jo It never ceases to amaze how nasty so called friends can be when it comes to their friend losing weight, a true friend would be pleased for you. I am in total agreement with your DH and would put it down to jealousy, you could have so easily made a hurtful reply, but you didn't, and good for you! Keep your chin up, you are a success :beer:

consultant How nice to see you here again :j , I hope everything is well with you, and that you're here to stay, as your advice is faultless. I think I scare people away :rotfl: When is your DD wedding? Did the dresses get sorted out okay. Are you back on track etc etc


I hope everyone has had a good weekend. I tried on a 'sun frock' (as my mother calls them:D ) which I bought 2 years ago but couldn't wear due to porkiness, but today it fitted :j and I felt so comfortable in it, so at least something has gone right!!

Evening all :wave:

It's been absolutely gorgeous here today, but now it's chucking down - still, it saves me watering the garden!

Jo - your so called mate is just being b!tchy, she is probably jealous, as your DH says. People can be really unsupportive when they see people achieving something and try to undermine when they should be complimenting them. You know how well you've done, so don't let her get to you.

Connie - welcome back, it's good to see you, how are you doing?

Victory - major retailers often reject clothes because they haven't been made to the right size, so it's always a risk buying these factory seconds at boot sales or on ebay. Do you make a profit from them on ebay?

poohbear - don't beat yourself up over half a slice of cheese on toast, it's not the end of the world! Are you following a plan? The reason I ask is that sometimes if you just try to cut back you risk not eating enough, and if you deny yourself everything you think is 'bad' for you, you'll soon fall off the wagon because you're so hungry and feeling deprived. SW, WW and calorie counting help you choose healthy options and help keep track of what you're eating.

Have a good week everyone.

Hi all

I wonder if I could join?

I have recently joined Scottish slimmers and weighted in at 10st 8 1/2lbs, target is 8.13. I have lost 1 1/2lbs so far. My weigh in day is either a tuesday or thursday depends on which class I can get to. I've just joined a gym and finished my induction so I've done a session myself on friday. Aiming for 3 sessions a week.

Let me know if its ok to join you all on your journeys, i look forward to chatting to everyone and getting some support and giving some support on here, and at times I know I could do with it, stopped myself from eating a slice of cake not long ago, thats how I found this tread.

Fabdee.

Hi

Please can I join the 2lbs club. I have eaten my way through the fridge tonight and feel it's time I took myself in hand. I have tried all of the usual slimming clubs and lost a couple of stones and then gained it again. I love the SW diet but hate the image therapy (I am a bit shy and usually find that I do not stay to class to avoid having to take part)

I am not good at going it alone and hope that by checking in here regularly I can keep a bit of motivation going!!

Thanks

Hi everyone,
had an good night out on Friday night - got a bit tipsy and complained to most of my friends about my OH. Unfortunately I haven't counted a point all weekend. My saving grace has been I've been reading the Bad Mother's club and laughing myself silly (had a terrible case of the munchies and was using MSE to distract myself!).

I have been to the gym today though (on a Sunday morning! who'd have thought it.)

Welcome dicktracey and fabdee, you'll find lots of motivation here!

Good Morning Lovely Peeps :j

I'm pleased to say that my scales show that I have lost a further 1.2lbs :j :j

Well done to ctfg for losing 2kgs :T

FabDee and dicktracey (and any others that I've missed over the weekend) You'll find this thread to be of great help, any time that you feel the urge to eat something that isn't necessary just come here even if it's only to browse, as you'll find the time passes along with any craving. I found some classes intimidating and wouldn't stop either, but some were great, it all depended on the person running it, but here you are the only judge of yourself.

I must say that I'm very impressed with all of you who can plan menus for a week. I am so disorganised and an impulse buyer so if I see something reduced/on offer/or just 'that'll be nice for a change', I buy the stuff and then end up throwing stuff away from out of the fridge to make space for it If I could plan ahead, and stick to it, I could save £££s. How do you cope with the changes of weather etc., for eg if you've planned a hot meal but the weather turns hot too?

This is a rant which (I hope) will be for cathartic purposes only so don't bother to read it. I'm still having problems with that delivery of the 2in1 cross trainer thingy and things are now turning ugly. It really boils down to the fault of the delivery firm (DHL) which says that they've tried to deliver but there was no-one in and were waiting to hear from me. ALL LIES as there has been someone here all the time. We've had trouble with them before. As the supplier chooses to believe them and not me, and I wasn't getting anywhere re my refund I contacted Google support (as the sale was through their checkout) who contacted the supplier who state that I've never been in contact with them :mad: I was livid, so copies of all the emails have been forwarded to Google etc. I hope it sorts itself out pdq because it really is getting to me and I feel so low, I have enough problems without something as petty as this. I known this reads somewhat disjointed but I'm so upset, but I'll fight this to death.

A relevant-to-slimming post will follow shortly by someone nice. For once in my life my weight loss is one of the more successful things.
