Scotsgirl - my life story write a post then wipe it have to repeat done that A LOT its annoying, hope the cortisone injection helps
Phae1963 glad you came back and posted after logging out - I would have rewritten probably something shorter like Scotsgirl did - but wouldn't have confessed to it.
Terra1984 - HI - wearing old clothes YAY!!!
RubyLeprechaun Your feeling better about it both in the head and the body I would say - means your improving with this you will get to those 5000 steps then you will find time to start doing 10,000!!! Playing with your children is a good workout for you and great for them and does not feel like work - love that fact
Went to the home-show with sister her daughter my two girls and our mum (Nana to the girls)- her daughter ran off Nana chased after her with help from my youngest - we walked around the show - missing the outdoor area where the face-painter and food court was found the danish delight ice cream - cheat day here had planned this ice cream into points from ww very low points day and almost no weeklies used to account for this tracked as best as able to hopefully got it right maddeningly high allowance of pretty much all the weeklies and half the dailies gone on 1 ice cream but **** enjoyed it!
My eldest stayed with me - Finally caught up with Nana and girls to get grumped at about taking off on her - excuse me - we did not she disappeared on us this time - we kept an eye out for them, if we had gone to/found the face painter would have found them the two girls had there faces painted with beautiful butterflys around the eyes little one was pinky purple she has shocking red/ginger hair and it looked amazing my youngest is a dark brown like mine she had a bright blue and sparkly one done - made her eyes look an intense bright blue instead of gray blue the blue sparkle lips was brilliant too!
anyway after that Friday night
Saturday /yesterday went to Waihi beach for a memorial and ash scattering of an unlce that passed away this time last year
didn't go to the ash scattering part as it has been raining a fair bit which means it was up a muddy track and we don't all have gumboots
so we met the family at the local pub restaurant /cafe section for a coffee (mocha for me - hot chocolate for the girls)
and a late morning tea.. hot chocolate was too rich for the youngest - wow her tastes already starting on the sugar being not so great -just by her choices alone ... having said that she still likes lollies .. just not too many of them
managed the whole day without blowing out my WW points ! really not easy in perspective it was very well done
after that went to the beach
had girls togs in the boot of the car - no towels oh bother - ended up using polar fleece blankets as towels it works and they dry fast so not to bad need to grab them out of the car and wash them now though
and put new togs into the car... sister got a photo of all 3 girls running back to shore in the waves looked like a baywatch scene photo !
stopped at MacDonald's on way home for a late lunch had a create your own taste burger - seared chicken , grilled pineapple 4 long pickles tomato and beetroot wrapped in lettuce no dressings so lighter points then any other options ....
dinner was 2 rice thins and a can of tuna
as only wanted something little later on by then
today is the last day of school holidays all 3 girls are currently at their Nana's need to go get my two and take the other one home..
Warning - Not about weight loss but about the children...
My little one is learning Violin and needs to practice she is also doing theory had homework for it but isnt so sure about doing it - she figured out its because she can not just ask her teacher at the next lesson about it .. normally she does more then is set but because its so long between lessons she is a bit nervous that she wont figure it out . ... so cute...
eldest is doing guitar lessons and loving it ... she can now play
our national anthem quite well has mastered Frère Jacques , In the hall of the Mountain King, Love me tender .. and a few others to busking standards
where her teacher would go busking with her now - so cool! she is 12 at the end of the year had a few different teachers been learning since 8 and is doing beautifully
also is learning Queens we will rock you
We have all been doing so well (me with my weight loss program them with music/swimming) going to see Pete's dragon with the girls as a reward

. I was not there for the formal meal, however when the night time buffet came around, I was very very good I only had a couple of sandwiches and a very small slice of cake. I had two fruit Ciders and a vodka and sprite, these were quite high in calories, so I made sure that I drank them as I danced 
. This meant that somehow, lucky me, I weighed in at the exact same as yesterday morning. Woohoo! 
I felt awesome last night 
I bought a small packet of diced British beef, threw it into the wok/frying pan with a whole pack of chopped mushrooms and about 2 cups of broccoli. I then added some Chinese 5 spice and some light soy sauce. It was awesome!! I couldn't believe how filling it was for such little calories.
