Treated myself, feeling really down.

my leg is still bad - infact it seems worse today than last weekend - have had quite a few bad days this week ? Don't know why, but I have - fed up and unhappy. So I treated myself to this:

It's fun to play with - actually tackling a LO using it now.

Don't know whether to go to SW this week ?

With Olivias 21st Birthday I've had chocolates and chocolate cake and a huge meal out at the World Buffet - that was a sight to behold I can tell you - how disgusting that our eyes light up when we see so much food ! So reckoning that I've gained - at least 2lb's - I've also had frosted shreddies in the house - NIGHTMARE havne't been able to leave them alone and have had 3 bowls and semi skimmed milk too !!! Plus for some reason this week I have longed after TOAST - and so I had it - with thick butter on the top. To say it was devine was an understatement - but I realy shouldn't have had it. Hopefully all the naughties are now out of my system and I can get back to Slimmning World Properly as of tomorrow after weigh in - Hope it's not as much as 2lb's on - but praying it's not more. See ya.

Dyed my hair - at long long last

still didn't feel like doing it - not just the doing of it (which i hate anyway) but standing up on my leg in one place whilst putting the dye on has been 'too much' to bear. Thankfully the leg is definitely improving and as it's Olivias 21st birthday tomorrow and we are going out for a meal - then I needed to get it done. I am 5 weeks behind doing it - it was disgraceful - was going to take a pic but don't think I could have beared to look at it myself. Whatever people have been thinking about me I do not know. Did try on two occasions to ring Korins hairdresser to get it done but it was always last minute and she couldn't fit me in. Ah well - hopefully it will turn out ok as I've only ever dyed it when it's only a cm roots - this time it was 2 and a bit cm roots - AWFUL.

SW 6th weigh in = another loss - at last

struggled the last few weeks - week before last I stayed the same - week before than and the week before that ONLY lost a pound............last week I gained a half a pound even though I switched to red as I felt on EE I couldn't tolerate the carbs in with my meals. FINALLY today I lost 2.5lb's - so 10lb's in 6 weeks - not too bad. COULD - I hope be over a stone lighter by week ten - AND another half a stone lighter for Christmas although my goal would be 10.10 for Christmas Day - I am on track I think it's 17 weeks to Christmas so if I only lost a pound each week I would definitely be at my goal for Christmas Day. Fingers crossed eh.

Olivia is 21 - 28th...........

Had the builders in !

We have a new house - well we've been here 2.5 years now and from day one the floors to the bedroom (above lounge) and the bedroom on 3rd floor above my bedroom the floors creek and crack something rotten..............impossible to sleep when my daughter gets out of bed or when my son and his GF get up to go watch some films on the 'big' TV downstairs - the floors wake me EVERYTIME. Anyway, cutting a long long story short I rang the house builder and apparently they've had the same problems on this small estate at other houses - and so they sent in the builders............... I dreaded them coming, the disruption (because of my bad leg and worried that I would be on the go all the time) but I needn't have worried they were very curtious and professional - got on with the job, cleaned up completely and have done an excellent job to the floors - THEY aren't 100% - didn't expect to be completely 'noise free' but I must admit that sons and GF's floor is probably 90% better and DD's floor is around 75-85% better - can't be bad eh. AND - although my leg is still bad - I was able to rest on my bed - at my computer and not do an awful lot really. Thanks chaps - you were excellent. Will have to send a report David Wilson.

even more depressed - half a pound on at SW

6th weigh in and I gained half a pound - stayed the same last week - don't know what the hell is going on !!!!!! should be losing. BUT I'm not excercising. When I lost on SW before I was working 28 hours a week and with my job I'm on the go most of the day - so no exercise is definitely a contributing factor to maybe not losing as easily but to gain when I've basically had a very good week - can't say excellent or 100% but a very very good week. very disappointed in myself. Never mind eh, can but try a bit harder - see how next week goes. Will have more fruit and veg and cut down on meat and carbs - hope that helps a bit.
