16 something

Well the scales said 16 something this morning....like that....away from the 17....hopefully I can keep it up.

Good day food wise yesterday. Had rice and kung po chicken for lunch and some cheesy pasta for dinner.

Also had a dentist appointment yesterday. Escaped the root canal, thank god! Still not a lot of fun. One mega deep filling and the other tooth prepped for a crown. It's still sore...ouch!

Made my lovely frittata for lunch today and had fruit and yoghurt for brekkie. Just had some more fritatta with some chips.....and a greggs pecan swirl for desert.....and finished it off with a wee rocky road for good measure....oh dear....I should really go for a walk, but its blowing a gale out there and my mouth is still sore....not sore enough to stuff my face lol.

The real challenge still lies ahead.....the weekend!

Day 2

It's my 2nd day back on plan....so far, so good. Had the same food as yesterday, obviously besides the tablet lol.....however I'm munching on a wee pack of choco pops just now. But been really good at work today, luckily it was nobodys birthday, leaving do, wedding or whatever lol.....lets just hope, nothing crops up this week.

It's group night tomorrow, will be going, but not getting weight....

Haven't walked today and yesterday, lazy cow that I am....Thursday, hopefully it stays dry and I will defo go out.

A new beginning

Well, after being a complete pig the last few weeks and engorging in mucho mucho naughtyness....I'm finally getting my backside back into gear. I've still got two weigh ins holiday, so it gives me two weeks to loose what I've gained. I weight myself this morning....17st 1 lb.....disgusting....I can't believe I've let myself get to this....I was under 15st for feck sake! But I guess after all this time I needed a wee break. It just pains me to see some of the newer members in my group loose all this weight, and I'm putting it all back on...not that I'm not happy for them....I'm just angry at myself.

Training for the Kiltwalk is well and truly on. Did 9 miles yesterday....my poor feeties were really sore afterwards, but hey, 2 weeks from now, I will have done nearly 3 times as much in one go. So I'm not going to ruin all this fitness with gaining more weight.....plus, whatever I loose in the next 2 weeks....I don't have to carry 26miles lol.

Had fruit and yoghurt for breakfast, Batchelors Supernoodles and a baked potato for lunch and pasta with cheese for my dinner....and not to forget some tablet I 'needed' to buy for charity....

Ah feck

Stuck in a rut....taking a few weeks off slimming world and just have what I want to have.....hopefully that will sort me out and I can get back on plan

I hate weekends

AM weight: 16st 6lb

Breakfast: Fruit & Alpen Light
Lunch: Tony Roma's
Dinner: 1/4 Lovely Fritatta
Snacks: Fruit

What a week....work was absolutely crazy. Non stop all week...my brain still hurts. When I came home last night I should have really went to spinning, but opened a bottle of wine instead. It was lovely....all 3 glasses of it lol....

Went spinning this morning and then me and Mr. B went out to Livi for some retail therapy and decided to go for lunch at Tony Roma's. Did I take the healthy option of Pasta Arrabiata? Of course not....Went right for the burger lol....I really piss myself off sometimes....why can't I just stick to it?  I managed to count every little syn for the last two weeks, but this week is just out of control. Not syn wise really, but I'm so busy at work and also pms'ing....all I want to do is comfort eat. I need a kick up the bum. Hubby is no real help, he's just as weak as me when it's about food. And MIL is just not listening at all. I told her 2 weeks ago not to bring us anything anymore....come wednesday, of course she brings us something, and yesterday FIL stopped by, with a pack of wagonweels....WTF? I could scream!!!

Anyway, will finish that bottle of wine now.

WI day

AM weight: 16st 5lb

Breakfast: Porridge w. apples and cinamon
Lunch: 2 sl of WW bread w. spread
Dinner: Pasta w. cheese
Snacks: fruit

Went to spinning last night, which was good. Was a huge class, but non the less a great workout. Really enjoyed it.

Work was busy as ever....one meeting after the other....the good thing about this is that I don't think about food as much. When I sit behind my desk all I want to do is eat and I think about food constantly. As soon as my routine changes at work, ie meetings, I'm fine....strange thing that eh?

Just back from my weigh in....stayed the same...16st 10lb. Quiet dissappointed about this really, but then again I had pizza on Saturday....and some more nibbles on Sunday....maybe just a few too many. But anyway, I'm on track, and at least it wasn't a gain. So hopefully next week I should be ok again (if MIL stops bringing cakes that is lol)

Eggs & Pasta

AM weight: 16st 5.5lb

Breakfast: Fruit & Yoghurt
Lunch: Lovely Fritatta
Dinner: Batchelors Supernoodles
Snacks: Lots of fruit

Yesterday has been a good day. I've been on plan. Got home from work and my lovely hubby left the box of chocolate on the table....the b*st*rd. Completely threw me and I picked two of the lovely seashells. However I then thought better of it and hid the box in it's usual place. Then continued to make myself a wee bowl of Batchelors Super Noodles and settled down in front of the computer.

Decided to go to the gym early and did 45mins in the gym before doing an hour of BodyCombat which was fab. However I probably shouldn't have had the supernoodles as I was feeling very heavy with all the jumping about. So I might reassess if I have any noodles when I get home later. My lunch is massive, so it will probably last me all day, as I'm nibbling on it all the time.

Usually I would go to Circuits on a Tuesday, however since I'm in love with spinning at the moment, I will make the treck to another gym and spin there. Yeh, I'm sad....

Oh, when I came home last night, Mr. B was nibbling on pretzels and hoolahoops....and I wasn't even tempted....yeah me!

New year new start....ahum...with a slight delay

AM weight: 16st 5lb

Breakfast: Fruit w. Yoghurt
Lunch: 1/2 Lovely Fritatta
Dinner: tba
Snacks: Apples, Grapes

Ok, yes, I admit it....my beginning of the year was less than ideal weight wise. I just couldn't seem to lose any weight. So frustrating. Kept fighting against my own body and my sanity to be honest. Anyway, finally made an appointement with the doctor to have my blood tested again and my meds changed and presto, in the last couple of weeks my thyroids are back in business and so am I .

Whats been happening? Well, I've been back to the gym and talked my lovely hubby into joining as well. I've even managed to drag him to a few classes, which he enjoys strangely enough lol. But it's good that he's going. It gives me a kick in the bum when I'm feeling like I don't want to go. I'm back to a tough regime:

Monday: Body Combat
Tuesday: Gym (or Circuits, depending on how I feel)
Friday: Zumba and Spinning
Saturday: Gym
Sunday: Spinning

I sooo enjoy the spinning classes. Eventho my behind hurts like hell during the second session, I love it!

SW wise I've been back on track as well. Decided it's enough faffing about. I'm back to basics. Writing every single thing down. Cause lets be honest....I'm only cheating myself if I don't write it down. And last week I had a loss of 1 1/2 lb loss and I'm hoping for the same and more this week.

I've also opened a group on Facebook together with my consultant. I will post a link to this blog there, which should give me an extra kick in the backside to update this blog more often *waves at the girls that found their way here* and keep me on the straight and narrow.

Tales of the unexpected:
Hubby took me to DiMaggio's this weekend. Did I do the sensible thing and order Pasta? Ha! Had a Pizza...which was absolutely deslish.....but went over my syns slightly....Been a good girl the rest of the week tho, so hopefully I don't take a too big hit on the scales on Wednesday.

New year, new start

Well, after being a complete lazy pig the last two weeks I've decided to get my backside back on track....my trousers are too tight, my bras are too tight and I just feel horrible. Eventhough I want to eat and eat, I shall not give in. It doesn't really help that Mr B opened the Toblerone this morning....I could kill him! But I'm at work, with no money on me, so it's just the healthy stuff I brought to work:

BF: 2 sliced Bananas with FF Yoghurt and 2 Alpen Light bars
L: Baked Potatoe with Beans and 42g Mozarella
Snack: Pineapple, Yoghurt, and Grapes

Planned Dinner: Pasta with 84g Mozarella

Beyond ridicilous

Well, weigh-in yesterday....and I'm now 16st 7lb.....7lb gained in 2 weeks....flippin heck!

Fell off the wagon

Yes, I've not posted in ages....and I've been hiding from myself....and kicking my own backside....but well, what can I do.

We got snowed in really really really badly and no way of getting to the shops....or getting something healthy out of them for that matter lol. Of course I could have tried harder....but I didn't....and of course I'll pay the price for it on the scales. But I've decided as long as I don't get over the 16st I'll just poddle along till this whole christmas malake is over and then have a fresh start....

So there....

Tired and depressed

Woke up this morning...well, can't really say that I'm awake, I'm just so tired...I want to go back home to bed and have a good ol' cry in bed. I constantly have the urge to tear up.

I had applied for the district managers position for East Scotland with SW and already had a chat with one of the managers last week. All seemed well, and I was encouraged to apply, so I did. I was very very exited about this position, because I don't think there is anything better than to work for a company that you truly believe in. Anyway, got a reply that my application would be forwarded for shortlisting last week. However, yesterday I came home from work and had a letter from SW....the usual bog standard.....sorry, you were unsuccessful.

I could have cried....well, actually I did. I really wanted this job. I'm soooo annoyed. I really thought I stood a chance....but I didn't even make it to a face to face interview. This really sucks.

Needless to say I really wanted to have a good old comfort eating session, but luckily I didn't. Had my soup as planned and then went to the gym. My morning weight was no were close to where I want it to be, 15st 10 1/2lb to be exact, but heyho, nothing I can do about it. Will go to the gym after work today and hopefully can keep it at that for tonights weigh-in. Having a fruity brekkie and brought leftover soup for lunch.

In hiding

I haven't posted in a week....I just couldn't face it....I can hardly face myself at the moment. I feel so lazy and unmotivated. I don't even know why. Haven't been to the gym in a week! I've sticked to the plan mostly, but had some slipups....tomorrow is weigh-in day. Yesterday my AM weight was 15st 9lb....today 15st 11 1/2lb....and to be honest, I have no idea why. I've been on plan 100% yesterday and yet I've gained. I'm clueless. I don't want to have another gain tomorrow...I couldn't face it.

So tonight I'll go to the gym, even if it kills me. The plan is to make tomato soup for dinner. And I'll defo stick to that as well. No naughtyness in the house, so hopefully hopefully the scale is tipping towards the 15st 9lb again tomorrow morning.

Day two

AM weight: I forgot!

Well, yesterday went rather well. Got home from work, made my cheesy pasta and stayed away from the treats. Did go to Body Combat at night, but didn't manage to go to the gym beforehand. Oh well, better something than nothing.

Had my fruity breakfast and Batchelors Supernoodles for lunch. Also made some potoatosalad last night, which I'm nibbling on throughout the day. Dinner tonight will be either leftovers of the salad or cheesy pasta again.

Plan is to go to the gym tonight, lets see if I succeed.

WTF is wrong with me????

AM weight: 15st 10 1/4lb

Well, after hitting my weight at 15st 11lb yesterday, I've decided it's enough. How can I gain all this weight again? I'm so annoyed with myself. So from today on, I'll change my strategy.

I will have my normal fruity breakfast as usual, but if I get peckish, I'll have some Ryvita with Laughing Cow Cheese as a mid morning snack. Today, this worked fine, no crazy hungerpangs mid morning. For lunch I had Batchelor Super Noodles. Dinner I have planned is Cheesy Pasta (2 HEA choices). And definetely will go to the gym tonight. I know it's rotten outside and it will be a challenge, but I just need to drag my fat bum out!

Fat Cow

AM weight: 15st 7 3/4lb




Thats what I feel like.....my weigh-in last night was shocking...15st 11lb....thats another 1/2lb on....I could cry. But its's my own fault really.....didn't go to the gym yesterday.

I have no motivation, just got myself a portion of chips.....I give up, I really do!

Weigh-in day

AM weight: 15st 7 3/4lb

Today is weigh-in day. I managed not to bring my money to work today, so the vending machine and a chilli burger will not lead me into temptation. Had a fruity breakfast and porridge with apple and cinnamon for my lunch. So far so good. Got two apples left for later on if I feel peckish again. Planning on going to the gym after work, hopefully this will help me getting something off....I can't deal with another gain. But only have myself to blame really. It's crazy how much I've lost track of things. I should be ashamed of myself. But the problem is, I've been doing it for so long....and it gets tough. Maybe one day I'll get my willpower back.

On a lighter note, I've sent an email regarding the district managers position for SW. Had an email back that she would really like to speak to me and asking for my number.....that was yesterday. No call as of yet. Oh this would be an exiting opportunity. Working for the company that helped me lose so much weight. Working for something that I'm proud of and believe in.

I shall post my weigh-in results later (and if I actually went to the gym lol).

Sooo tired

AM weight: 15st 7 1/2lb
PM weight pre dinner: 15st 7 3/4lb (huh)

Gosh, I'm tired, I don't even know why. Just sitting here on the couch (when I really should be in the gym), and can hardly keep my eyes open.

Been a busy day at work, but nothing out of the ordinary. Had my usual brekkie and then a baked potato with the last bits of Ragu for lunch. Wanted to make soup for dinner, but opted for cheesy pasta instead....yummm. Too tired to go to the gym, been to Body Combat and Zumba last night, just cannae hack it tonight. So chillout time and hopefully I have enough energy after work tomorrow to do some serious cardio.

I'm a happy bunny!!!

AM weight: 15st 6 3/4lb
PM weight pre dinner/gym: 15st 10lb
PM weigh post dinner/gym: 15st 9lb

Oh I'm a happy bunny. Just ordered my tickets for Bon Jovi next year. I'm soooooooooo exited! And they are great seats too:

Oh I can't wait....roll on 22nd of June 2011!!!!

Well, yesterday was not quiet as relaxed as I thought. Chilled out most afternoon, watching some movies, waiting for shopping to arrive...only problem there, it didn't arrive. So I called Asda and apparently there were some delays and I would be called back by the store. Yeh, at 6pm they finally called, after I actually made dinner, to inform me that they can't get it out till Tuesday as they had a system failure. Grand! Just told them to cancel it. So we had to get dressed and go to Tesco.

Anyway, today is a new day, a fresh start to the week, and hopefully to me being on track a bit more. So far I have managed to stay away from the vending machine. Had my fruity brekkie, am nibbling on grapes and have a baked potato with leftover Ragu from yesterday for my lunch.

Suuuundaaayyy!!!!

AM weight: 15st 6 1/4lb
AM weight post breakfast/gym: 15st 5 1/4lb

Ok after my we rant yesterday morning, all went well....Mr Beaver shaved, and we trodded off into town. Had a look what movies were on, but didn't really fancy any of them. Went to pay off the credit card and had a tea and a wee treat in Starbucks. Went to Buchanan Galleries and down Buchanan Street.

Had lunch in TGI Fridays, which was ok, but not as good as it used to be. But oh well, we had a great time. Went to Pets at Home to get the weans something to eat and then to Tesco to get some nibbles.

Our night, we spent watchin X Factor, eating cheese and drinking wine...it was lovely.

This morning I went to the gym...an hour of Body Jam and an hour of Spinning. Shattered now, so having the rest of the afternoon in the usual position on the sofa lol
