  • 3 stone award tonight :j:j

    Got my interview done and it all went well. I was more nervous about getting weighed than anything else as I was so desperate to reach that 3 stones. I actually went 0.5lbs over so am now at 42.5lbs lost. How awesome is that? I am so so so thrilled
    Poor SW leader was a wreck but I think we did okay. So I was interviewed, I won slimmer of the week and got my award. Quite a night.

    I am not in work tomorrow as heading to Perth. Never been there before so am looking forward to it. Going by train so will need to pay for tickets and reclaim the cash. As far as I know food is being provided so no cost there hopefully.

    Meeting my friends tomorrow night so that'll be great as not seen a couple of them for ages. Been texting and phoning but we haven't managed to get together. Really looking forward to seeing them.

    Verbatim I am really focused on the weight loss. I eat loads and loads of food but just make sure it is the right stuff. I'm also making an effort to try some of the recipes and everything I have made up to now I have enjoyed.I am doing 2 nights dancing and most weeks I am doing 2 cleaning stints which get me sweating and is about 8hrs between them BUT 8 hrs cleaning means £80 towards my debt and also a weightloss :D. It's a win win for me.

    I am out every night this week and then working Saturday and Sunday doing some hours cleaning so a busy busy week. But hey I am going to be slim, debt free and have a fab kitchen. That's my goals xx

    I don't Post very often but I just HAD to come on and say WELL DONE for your 3stone Award....that's FANTASTIC!!


    I'm also doing SW as well :)
  • Aww thanks guys. I love the support on here

    Went out tonight for a long walk with friends. Stopped at pub for an hour ( diet coke) and then continued walking. Really going for it this week as I only have 4 weeks to get into my dress and I am truly having a panic about it. I can't even look for shoes or anything until I am sure I am wearing it. I might do the speed diet Saturday until Tuesday and see if I can boost things this week.

    Went to Perth today and the small bit I saw looked lovely. Gorgeous day in Scotland today so hopefully my solar panels are generating some electricity. I'm not getting any benefit from them yet :mad:

    My friend's funeral is tomorrow and I am dreading it. It'll be very difficult for us all. Nothing in comparison to her poor family though. Work will be hard going tomorrow.

    Another friend of mine in work announced today he is getting married. His civil partner died last year and he had a really rough time but he has met a new man and is completely loved up. I am delighted for him. Maybe I should take a leaf out of his book.

    So I have dancing tomorrow night and also Friday night. I am then going to a charity night but I will take car so I am not tempted to eat and drink. I am working Saturday morning and Sunday evening cleaning so another busy one for me. It's all good though as money for debts and also mega exercise.

    Heading to bed now as I'm whacked xx
