Lilt and Jellytots most excellent adventure...

BILLIE

Heh ... Lilty, but more importantly Jelly tot how wonderful - sun came out about half five! 2 homemade macaroons from market (coconut and lime hum hum) and 2 savaloys - and not enough steps.....

Try some burpees, missus! You can always step back into the plank bit for now...but do remember to do a press up when you are there.... :j

:T:T:T Well done Jelly!!! :T:T:T

Levi-

I know I can't talk as I still have a 4.5 yr old in nappies @ night but is it worth a shot to try or move to the pull up?I have a strong feeling it won't be long in her case to get it on lock-down Have a good night Liltster you are an amazing mum! (not that you need me to tell you that) and have a great Sunday x x x x x

Ali-OK

Brilliant news on Jelly's progress to wee wee's on the toilet - did I read that right - your Mum watching her doing her thang on Face Time? :rotfl:

Sounds like night will follow daytime progress quickly too. :j

You're zooming along on the steps and weight loss - well done mrs :T

Hope you've got some R&R planned in too

:rotfl:Read Levi's comment as meaning you should move from jumping jacks to pull ups! :rotfl:I'm one of those who had a child who decided SHE wanted to sleep naked at night and therefore had no nappy. Only a couple of accidents. I was lucky!

Burpees. I tried one the other day when I finally googled what you were on about woman. My back just hasn't go the strength. Imagine next to no muscles from shoulder blade to hips, front and back. I am like wobbly wobbly jelly in the middle - hence the light strength training and epic scales of just trying to sit with the correct posture which gives me really nasty backache!! I will get to burpees eventually. Him tried it and even he struggled after 10! Can't even do a plank for the minute, and as for push ups... seriously woman. Jillian Michaels I am not!

Lovely neighbour was home at 10 to 9, and knocked on the door to see if I wanted her to house sit! So I jumped on her and went out stomping the coastline which was beautiful it got dark whilst I was out and I cared not one bit! I did 4 miles or so. Lots and lots of steps. I'm way out of ketosis this morning so I have so far eaten a couple of pork scratchings and am just trying to cook some egg/bacon and cheese muffins I can jump on those and hopefully get back to it before evening falls. I need to stop this once a week diversion from the menu. There is no excuse. I don't NEED the rubbish food. Mind over matter.

In that respect, I baked off the remaining cookie dough this morning and have made a pack up for Him. Jellytot and I will take it down and drop it into him at work once he is open at 10am. Freshly baked cookies for Him, so he won't complain, and only enough left at home to feed Jellytot.

Speaking of Jellytot, we are 0 for 3 this morning in the toilet training stakes. So relieved it is half term, no pressure to try and wrap this up within 2 days. But it does mean we can't go far without an accumulation of *stuff* I haven't had to carry really in more than a year. MIL & FIL are coming on Tuesday and want to take her out for the day. I am willing to let them, but nappies are not on the agenda so I don't think they will stray very far at all. They will have to take the potty and spare clothes etc etc.

Levi - sods law I went and bought 200 nappies :wall: on Tuesday this week. Wondering if they will let me take half back and switch for pull ups! At the rate we are going though I think it will be a long stretch of nappies to knickers.

Hugs all. From a bummed Lilty trying to clean the floor again. xx

Keep with it - the fact that she doesnt want to wear nappies means she is making the decision herself and shouldn't take too long -

my fingers are crossed for you and Jelly - time to get some lovely princess knick nacs :-)

Hey mate

She was being a contrary little madam this morning (wonder where she gets it from :rotfl:) and up was down and down was up and she didn't want to make me happy or any of the usual tricks. We were 5-1 with accidents winning majorly by 11am. However her mood melted away and since then she has gone a perfect record. Not a single accident. The whole shebang just seems to have clicked with her. Now to start the pre-bedtime wrestle of trying to convince her a nappy is required for sleeping time.

Nursery will be in shock. Only a couple of days before the weekend we had a discussion about the fact that she just wasn't showing any signs whatsoever and how her tummy issues complicate matters so much. She could't really have decided it on a better day either. First day of half term holidays. Methinks we shall have it licked by the time she goes back...

... If only we could graduate to knickers without accidents, let alone trousers.. :rotfl: it's been naked Sunday today!!

As for the knickers... we went out last night after she was in pyjamas and fetched 2 packs of peppa pig ones. She didn't like the princess ones or the frozen ones. Shame she's gone through half a pack in the space of this morning :rotfl:

Not a lot else achieved today. About 20 minutes of weight training included weighted crunches and kettle bell lunges as well as arm exercises and some to strengthen my back. 30 minutes of aerobics. And 35 minutes to plump my gigantic much neglected sofa cushions back to some semblance of their former glory. Of course now neither Jellytot or I am allowed to sit on the sofa now... :rotfl:

Basically I just stick to Jelly like glue playing and when she asks, we trot off to the bathroom. Not that I am counting or anything but 23 trips so far... LOL. xx

:j:j:j:j:j for you and Jelly!! Bless her. DD was the same, I took a week off work when I thought she was ready and she cracked it in the first three days she spent most of the time naked I like to remind her about it frequently :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

You are doing better than me at the low carb eating I've had a yorkshire pudding today with my roast lunch, and it was delicious!

please-let-me-be-lucky

I remember the days of accidents well! I promise one day soon it will just click and that will be that. In the meantime, your washing machine will be worn out :eek:.

Well done on resisting the cookies! You deserve the yorkie pud though Xx
