Quick post to say good morning I'll be back later.

Hey Nicki and Kelli,

Busy trying to break the cravings today. Doing ok.

Hope you are having a great day!

S/C/G: 197/191/145 1st minigoal 180's



Hey Ash,
Could you explain the above to me. This is what I think it is: 197 is starting weight, 191 is current and 145 is goal.
Yes?

Then what is minigoal 180.

That should be the "C" now, right?



Well, I just want to post and say, and hello!

Will be able to post more next week, when it hopefully will be calmer.

BYE

KELLI

Hey Kelli,

Minigoal is 180's because that is the 1st goal I have set for myself. and as you can see 189 has eluded me so far. But I will get there!

Hope next week is calmer.

To cut a long story short my DD went missing from her SummerScheme. They'd gone to the cinema and whilst it was dark she just got up and left. The whole cinema complex went into allert, all films stopped showing, the police were called, my DD had taken herself to Macdonalds. Now my DD is Autistic and can't ask for help. She has no fear of danger and unlike some people on the autistic spectrum she loves cuddles and will hold hands with any one. You can imagine what I've been going through. Luckily for her noone abducted her. She went to Macdonalds because she knew that was where we were going after I'd met up with her after the cinema. To get to Mac's from the cinema meant she had to cross a very busy road. All I can say is thank God we drilled it into her to wait for the green man before she crosses the road. In fact she won't cross that road without the green man, and if we try to get across without it then she will literally scream. That green man could have saved her life today.

Needless to say watching my food has been the last thing on my mind.

Nicki,

I am so sorry. I cannot imagine how frightened you were. Hug them all close and take good care of yourself too.

Went to my first Slimming World meeting tonight and my new starting weight is 258 not as my bathroom scales had been telling me 246 this week. Before anyone asks I weighed myself fully clothed in what I was going to wear to be weighed at the meeting. Either my scales are completely out and need replacing or I need to chance the battery. I'm thinking it could be the later, because when I came home and weighed myself again on them it showed that I weighed 68lb.

Hope everyone is ok?

Nicki

Life is a real roller coaster ride sometimes. Going along just fine and dandy and then, oh my gosh, the curve, the severe turns, the straight down, arms in the air, screaming section..........

Nicki, my heart literally jumped to my throat as I read about your daughter walking away to McDonalds.
Oh My Gosh.
Consider yourself hugged because I'm sure you need one after going through that.

My DH?
You hit it right on the nail.

I don't know if I mentioned, but I'm going to make an appointment to go get some free legal advice about divorcing. I think that I've had enough. Especially with my son starting to do very odd things.
I have to nip it in the butt......NOW, before it's too late.

Well, ladies, life goes on and we just need to dig our heels in and deal with what comes our way

Kelli

Kelli in all honesty I think that at last you're making the correct sensible choice. After all what message were you giving your children before. 'It's ok to be emotionally and mentally abused'. Or to be the one emotionally and mentally abusing.

Have you a good support system, people out there in the real world that you can rely on?

Nicki

It's me again, am I alone here this weekend? If so I'll keep the thread going until you get back.

Managed my first official day on my new eating plan yesterday. I've been semi doing it earlier but had certain food items that had to be eaten up first. I can't throw food away, it's not in my nature, or maybe that's nurture having been born in the 50's. There was still rationing when I was born.

Nicki

Hey All,

Just got back from vacation.

Kelli, Take care of yourself. Taking care of yourself is the best gift you can give those in your life you care for. imo

Nicki, Congrats on Slimming World first day!!!!

I am back to eating OP. I did enjoy my vacation food. Tried to eat when I was hungry and to not overeat and to only eat what I really wanted. DId ok with that. We also walked about 4 hours!!

Best to you all.

Good morning Chickies,

Had a good day and a crappy night. I feel yucky so maybe sticking to plan will be easy today.
Wishing you both a great day!!

Ash

2.5lb loss this week! I'll post more tomorrow, but right now I need to go to bed and get some sleep.
