Oh dear Kel. Thats horrible. Here's somethin to cheer you up and give you (and maybe others) a laugh.

I think this is so true true true and very catchy tune.

Kel, you should have pointed at her and said "Rude"?

Oh Kel that sucks. I know how you feel - I was fat when I travelled through south east asia and the people there seemed to have no concept that it's rude to point out how fat people are!

I'd like to put my two cents worth in about our meeting place and say that Melbourne would be awesome. It's one of my favourite places in Australia and the shopping is great :D February/March is good for me too.

Good luck Ani with your "free eating" week. It'll be interesting to see how you go with it. Kind of like a maintenence test I suppose.

I had a good weekend. Diet was pretty good but not perfect and I managed to go for a 30 minute walk on Saturday. Did a big supermarket shop yesterday so have lots of lovely fresh food in the fridge.

Goals for this week are to continue the good work at the gym and to continue sticking to my points.


:twirly:

im back.. lol

Me and hubby sat down and had a big talk.. on wednesday .. we had done nothing but snap at each other since he got home sunday afternoon..
We both decided we had just got used to not having to answer to anyone .. lol or ask anyone else opion .. and i was sick.. which really didnt help at all.
My parents neighbopur died on wednesday and i sopent all day trying to contact my parents.. i forgot it was my friends babies 1st birthday that day .We had already celebrated his birthday the friday beofre at playgroup and his party was this saturday so i thought the next day .. oh well no big deal and me and John took the kids to the zoo on thursday..

Leah was fine.. she even pet the Kangeroos.. held the animal feed which had hay in it.. and even rubbed herface b4 washing her hands... no reaction what so ever.. hip hip hooray.. i have a normal child :) it just goes to show how much diet can impact on health.. it has taken 6 full months ( from stopping the foods) for her body to stop reactring to everything.. i know how ever she still cant have the food or back we go she gets sick again.. and everything makes her sick..

So anyway the zoo was fabulous. they have changed a few things around and the animals have much better accomodation.. I almost cryed when i saw the huge vegetation filled rope covered orangatang inclosure what they had lived in for so long was a small concreate inclosure with one rope tower and they were always looking sad now .. they have a huge maze of ropes.. and are wondering around it and seem happy . it was fantastic..

so anyway back to the friend and her baby ... like i said b4 we had celebrated his birthday once .. on the day of his birthday ( wednesday) i was busy trying to contact my parents about the death of a friend they had known most of my life.. and then we went out for dinner , took the kids for a night time stroll down the beach and too the boat ramp to watch the boats come in .. it was lovely . thursday we went to the zoo .

When i came home i had 2 messages on my mobilethe first saying" she was disapointed in me that i didnt ring for his birthday and i of all ****ing people i had to ring him.. how dare i ****ing not".. the next saying. "since I couldn't be bothered to ring dont bother coming to his party( which is today saturday) and that it may not matter to me if it was his birthday but it mattered to her and that it was a really good way to end a friendship".. .

I sent her a message that" i didnt need her **** i had had an uncle die and she needs to leave me alone.. and i wasnt ready to talk about it . and i was sorry i fogot to ring on his birthday and to give the baby a big kiss for me"..

So now she is not talking to me . and she has told my other friend that we dont talk anymore she has even gone as far as to delete all my numbers out of her phone .. she didnt even apologise for being a *****.. and then she told my friend she would let it slide if i wanted to ring her..
Like i have done something wrong?? omg what a *****.. let it slide will she ... **** her..

lmao dont you just love the drama in my life.. there is always something isnt there.. if its not the kids its the hubby if its not the hubby its my mother and when all else fails its my friends.. lol ... my life would make a great tv show i tell ya..


I would really love to see you all but .. me and travelling dont mix so i will have to give it a miss . :) I have really bad ears .. im a person who gets severe ear pain from just putting my head underwater.. airplanes make me cry for a 3 day minimum of pain.. so youre not gonna see me im afraid.. but i hope you'll have a great time :)

Kel i hope you find a really good day care for jem. you will know when you have found the right place/person.. and jem will love playing with the other kids .. I know at first it will be hard since at this age they get very seperational.

Vonni youre gonna be a very young nanny :) lol my mum complained when i had Cameron .. lol i was 19 and mum was 48 she said she was too young lol..
Ani its incredible to think you have almost lost a bbq :) lol

Julia great willpower not travelling again.. your on such a good mindset atm dont need anything to interefere with that.

Gen i agree the enighbour was rude.. So is this a new man your drueling over with kids huh??? lol you and Ani need to like people that are available you are both worth it :) .. hey just think you could end up with a man like mine... he acts like a child when he doesnt get his own way lolol... so most the time i have 3 kids instead of 2 .. lol

I know i was really mean about him early in the week but .. hes not all bad.. i was just really pissed with him.. as you can tell .. we had a really good rest of the week together though.. dinner walk on the beach, zoo, walk around the lake .. , fishing, oh b4 i forget to tell you guys becuase it was really funny..
At the lake there is a school and in the school is a giant super slide. you know a real old fashioned long skinny metal slide that goes down a steep hill side.. anyway .. Leah was screaming down the slide fast.. she had track pants on. And Cameron was barely moving his pants were making him go real slow.. So John in all his wisdom.. told Cameron to stop winging and he would show him how to go down fast..." Cameron this is how you do it watch and learn" OMG LOL>>>>> so John did a running jump onto the top of the slide landed hard on the slde with a OH.. and then went done so fast he couldnt stop himself at the bottom. He landed square in the middle of a mud puddle at the bottom.. straight on his ***... It was so funny i could stop laughing .. i was just aboptu wetting myself... I called up to Cam and told him .. that is the way you dont do it... lol . John had another idea however... I had carrieed the kids snack and drinks in a shopping bag.. When cameron came down again John emptied the bag.. put Camerons legs in the handles and tucked the bag up over his bum.. It looked like Cameron was wearing a nappy.. its was hilarios .. and Cam was walking like a penguin too .. so it made it even funnier.. i tell you what though.. it worked.. from then on he screamed down the slide as fast as leah.. :)

anyway i might actually shut up now lol.. cyas


Ps oh yeah.. i didnt go to the party .. nor have a rung the *****.. and i dont intend to either.. i dont deserve that ****.. ive done everyting for her.. even helped her clean her filthy house .. .. i am not putting up with her anymore.. she is mental i swear she is.. she crys all the time.. doesnt look after her kids properly .. and wont admit she has a problem.. ..

amy you did nothing wrong and you dont need high maintenance friends
you already have a high maintenance husband
dont feel bad, if she cares enough she will contact you, your friend has to realise the world does not revolve around her

ps -- my weigh in today = no comment = definately no carrot

omg.. hahahahahahah you said it Kel .. if only i could some up my life in the nice short way you do... LMAO..

I think I need negative carrots!

Havent weighed in today............ :D:D:D

wooo hooooo Nanny

everyone healthy and happy??

:bravo::welcome3:imogen

how long is she??

Awww congrats nanny Vonni :yay:

I weighed in last night and all I can say is that the past week of eating well and doing loads of exercise must have resulted in some muscle gain because I was up 700g :shrug: frustrating but I know that that's par for the course when doing weights so I'll just keep plugging away at it and I'm sure I'll get a good loss eventually.

Goals for today: 1) Stick to my points 2) Do 40 minutes cardio at the gym tonight.

Have a great day everyone.

:twirly:

I have posted a PIC of little Mo (I've been calling her that for ages) on my profile page.

Thanks for the congrats guys.

Congrats Vonni - she's lovely! ;)

Where is Ani?

Thank you everyone. I am so excited. I have like 60 photos already :dizzy:

Ok gory details. For those that DON'T want to know.......... look away hehe

They were over for dessert Sunday night. She looked at me burst into tears and said - When will it be over, I'm so tired (she had niggle pains for a few days). I said to her BF once you burst into tears like that it's usually time.:cry:

Sure enough 4.07am I got a phone call............."Mum I'm pretty sure my waters broke, what'll I do?" I jumped in the shower and meanwhile her BF rang in a tither saying couldnt find hospital number. So I rang the midwife to let them know we would be up when pains got closer. Then I went over to their house (his mum came to).

We went to the hospital about 6.30am.

She had the baby at 12.35 with NO pain relief. She was so well prepared. They went to antenatel, and watched hepas of austar birthing shows and read so much. They had a birthing plan drawn up which was like a text book lol.

She relaxed well and nanna napped between contractions and pushed for only 10 minutes.

Mother and Baby and a sore Daddy (he held her up) all doing very well. Baby feeding well too.

Nanny Von very proud of all of them. :bravo:

That's really cool Vonni, I'm glad it all went reasonably smoothly. You'll be excited to get to know the little one. I'm sad that my sister now lives in the north island as I don't get to see her as much. However, I'm going up again in a couple of weeks and will be able to see my new nephew for the second time :D:D:D

This morning I was up at dawn's crack. Went to the gym and did a hard weights circuit with my trainer followed by an easy 20 minutes cardio. Sadly his prices have gone up to $50 a session :( which I think is extortionate but he's great at what he does and I've decided to stick with it for a while longer.

Did well and met my goals yesterday. Goals for today are the same: 1) stick to my points and 2) have a good workout at the gym and that one I've already done!

Have a great day ladies.


:twirly:

Where is everyone?

:?:

Yesterday was okay. Went over my daily points allowance by 5 points :sorry: and I think it was probably because I went to the gym in the morning and the evening seemed longer so I nibbled more than usual.

Goals for today: 1) Stick to my points 2) 40 minutes cardio at the gym tonight.

Hope everyone's okay!


:twirly:

i thought that if i paid my trainer heaps then i would not overeat thinking that it was a waste of money to go and pay heaps for exercise and then screw the weightloss thing with eating badly - didnt seem towork but am working on it

BAD BADBAD BAD news - the worst possible thing that could have gone wrong has........... i have lost the whole family's passports
we fly out on saturday morning early
whoops

God, I'd panic. You can't have LOST them, surely, just misplaced? I'll give St Anthony a prayer for you, I think he's the patron saint of finding lost things.

OMG Kel ..... i bet Jemima has posted them somewhere.. :) lol.. I bet they are somewhere really strange like the bathroom cupboarde or the bottom of a toy box... between tedddy bears or in between her clothes lol.. dont you just love toddlers???? Leah went through a stage of posting items... the amount of times i lost my keys and purse was ridiculous only to find them a couple of days later in a stupid place.. like the washing basket lol or in the toilet roll keeper.. My mobile was once posted into the toilet... that was te end of that mobile .. lol ... IM sure you will find them Kel .. you might have even put them somewhere your self for "safe" keeping lol..

So this week i have been off plan pretty good.. I have been feeling crappy and eating crappy and sitting on my backside.. dont you just love hormones and cramps.. and back ache.. and migraines.. wow its so much fun being a women lol .. So anyway today i finally feel somewhat human.. i actually have some energy.. omg energy wow.. so i plan on using it .. porridge for breakfast .. then on the elliptical.. for me. cyas later :)

Thought I should pop in quickly. I weighed in this week and have only lost another 100g. We were very social last week though. My daughter turned 10 so we had a party for her, then my neice turned 1, another party, then a dinner party Friday night = not a very good week for weight loss, so losing 100g was a bonus :)

Haven't really had time to look at everyone's posts but I'll get to them. I noticed a gathering happening next year. I'd love to come to and I can visit with my sis while I'm there, takes care of accomodation too!

Congratulations Vonni! Your grandy looks beautiful! I can't believe you have one! Your a year younger than me and my eldest just turned 10 :)

Better go. Its school holidays here and my kids are nagging!

XX
Barb

they were in benji's wardrobe
i lost my day today looking for them
he found them when he got home

i dont care they are found
now i have to pack!
thanks for the thoughts i am sure it helped, i was prepared for them to be lost
it was going to take 2 working days and $950 to replace and then i had to figure out about changing non changeable flights etc BUT not anymore its all good

i've been eating a lot.....
not a good start for holiday

Phew! Kel you must be so relieved! Have an awesome holiday and make sure you give me a call if you have time to meet up when you're in Christchurch :D

I had an okay day yesterday. Was on target with my points but didn't get to the gym. Will go tonight instead.

We've had so much sadness in the news this week. A 15 year old girl from here in Christchurch went missing on 5th April and it looks like they've found her body. Earlier in the week 6 students and their teacher died in a flash flood that hit a river where they were canyoning. It's just heartbreaking. Puts things into perspective that's for sure. :cry:

I don't know if I've hit a plateau or if I'm eating too much… or maybe I'm building muscle in my new job. In any case I'm not losing any weight at the moment. I need to pay more attention to what I'm eating, because I feel like I've lost the plot a little bit.

I guess it takes time to work out your routine in a new job.

Hey Vonni you could have warned me about the petty politics and the games people play in retail ;). Honestly, some people seem to live their lives through work, and need manufactured drama in order to make themselves feel important. So far I've managed to avoid most of the little games, and I intend to keep doing that, but it does make me roll my eyes a bit.

More importantly I need to find the right balance of food for my more active days. I have SO not got it right yet, and have been finding myself eating wrong things because I just get too hungry.

Working all weekend, every weekend is a bit hard to get used to too.

But I'll figure it out. I've made myself a promise that I won't gain more than a kilo while I'm working through this - so as long as I manage that I'll be happy.

Sounds like everyone is struggling to lose weight at the moment. I wonder what that's about…

Anyway, gotta go and get ready for work. Sorry for being 'all about me' this morning.

Julia just wanted to say that I heard about that terrible tragedy with the teacher and kids drowning. It's awful when something like that happens.

OK Kel did Benji put them there????? lol.. kinda a silly spot to put them but at least Jem didnt get hold of them and they are found lol.. Now dodnt loose them while your on holiday or it will be very expensive to get home again .. :) lol.. Have a great holiday i hope the weather is nice the food is healthy and benji and jem behave themselves lol ....


Ani on the other forum i visit one of the girls on there has started an active job with horses.. she has figured out with the help of the skinny dieters on there that have already lost it all lol.. to have 200-300 calories more on the days she is working and she is losing at a steady rate. so maybe that is worth a try? It is hard when you have structured breaks .. which mean by the time you get to the break you are starving.. Its not like and office job where you can have an apple or something while your working.. try to eat something on your break that will fill you up and keep going till the next break..


Julia i dont watch the news... its never good news.. and i always find it sad..

Kel You have a WONDERFUL holiday (lucky cow :p)

Julia yes I heard on the grapevine, havent seen news myself yet. Usually busy doing something or other. Sad isn't it. I heard that they were told was safe but others say were told wasnt safe???????

Ani, hope you can figure it out, and a good goal to have at the moment... not GAINING more than a kilo till you work it out. Good for you that you can look at it realistically and not beat yrself up about it. Hows the clothes fitting though?

Ami my youngest is a royal brat when it comes to hiding stuff. I couldnt find a ring for days, and I had put it on my keeper. I found it under my bed almost a week later when I got a pair of shoes out. It was sitting in the shoe. And keys........ always losing the keys courtesy of children lmao.

The worst one for it though is myself. I am always in such a rush that I throw something down then forget where and rush around like mad cause its usually when I need it in a hurry that I cant find it.

Vonni

Wheres Lindor? And has anyone heard from Kylie?

Ps Barb my kids are 2, 7, 13 and 18. stepkids are 4, 5 and 9.

I need a :kickbutt:

It's Friday at 4:53pm. I finish work in 7 minutes. It's cold and dark and I wanna go home!

However ...

I will go to the gym. I WILL go to the gym. I will go to the gym. I WILL GO TO THE GYM and I will at least do my weights and 10 minutes cardio.

:frypan::frypan::frypan:

:carrot: Yay for me, I did manage to drag my weary bones to the gym yesterday. I did my weights and then 20 minutes worth of jog/sprint intervals.

I weighed myself and was most disgusted to find that I've gained even more since Monday! Oh well, I'll keep on doing what I'm doing and see what weigh in on Monday brings.

Have a great weekend everyone :D


:twirly:

im feeling really good for the last 2 days i have got off my butt and worked out.. 20 minutes on the elip yesterday and 30 minutes ojnh it today .. and my diet is improving too .. im not weighing myself becuase i have got the ****s with that .. but i feel like i have put some weight back on in the last week or two .. lol so im gonna get back on track and stay there b4 i weigh in... lol i have done tape measuremenst and i had gained 3 cm on my waist and 3cm on my hips.. which has really peeved me off becuase it is so slow to loose it from my hips.. for it to go there first is a real kick in the teeth. oh well that is what happens when you slack off and eat crap..

anyway i feel good and im eating good too .. least just hope its stays that way .. lol

Vonni arent kids lovely creatures.... lol Mine were drving me nutz this morning so i through them outside to annoy th dog lol .. Leah decided in all her wisdom it would be a fun game to steal Cameron hat and dunk it in the dog water.... eeeewwwwww then she dunked her own hat.. lol .. yummo slobbery dog water hats for mummy to wash.... lol .. they are both in the shower now getting clean after coming in from my dust bowl back yard
http://i28.tinypic.com/aku9ev.jpg

anyway better get the kids out the shower b4 we blow too much water .. lol cya later...

I bet you felt so much better after going to the gym Julia? I am thinking of walking to work again now it has cooled down a little. It is a 1.5km walk there, and I'd have to walk home in the afternoon too, so it'd be a 3km walk five days a week. And that is heaps more than I am doing now! :lol:

I am away for work all next week, so I'll have to motivate myself to start when I get back.

I have continued to stick to my daily calorie budget. And I still have not weighed in since returning from holiday. May 1 will be the day! And I am kinda looking forward to it now :)

Amy, you might benefit from less frequent weigh ins too, especially if the results are having a negative effect on you? I know I got very frustrated with weeks of little or no loss...and often it would trigger me to thoughts of 'what's the point' and then over eating for comfort. I have found by not weighing in, I am accepting the calorie budget as more than just a way to lose weight, but also a lifestyle.

Ani, it does take time to adjust to a major change - physically and mentally. I know when I went from shift work to 'normal' hours, it also took me quite a while to settle.

And your body has had the added challenge of having to adapt to a more physical job. Give yourself a little time mate, you still have that determination to do this, you will figure out a balance soon :hug:

Kel...enjoy the holiday!!!

Gen? How goes your challenge?

Barb, with all the occasions you have had recently, you have done very well to lose 100g! Awesome work!!

It sounds like Melbourne is a suitable place for most of us to go. I've never been there, but I am willing to explore! :)

Now we need to decide on what we want to do there - I think we should do something more than meeting up at a coffee shop for coffee. Most of us are coming some distance and would probably like to do something 'touristy'? Maybe a full day tour of some sort? I don't know? How about we all have a google and post what appeals to each of us and then we can pick and chose according to the response from others?

Once we decide on what we want to do, we can then work out whether we just want to meet on one occasion or over a few days?

Vonni, I think about Kylie often too. I hope she is doing well :)

Anyway...must go finish my book!! :)

Enjoy the rest of the weekend!

By the way...

...I have discovered Sour Cream and Chive Sakata rice crackers have the same effect on me as Sour Cream and Onion Pringles! But, with far, far less calories!!!

Wooohoooo!!! :lol:

LOL Lindor way to go for the sakatas. Have you tried the Vintage Cheese sohos? They're pretty yummo to. But they are hard to find here in this little hick town. And I agree on the google something to do. Just from researching my family holiday I know of a few things. Depends if you want adrenalin or calm. Luna Park, Phillip Island, V8 supacar experience, Hike in the Grampions etc etc etc..... Will keep looking. And I vote for a couple fo days to catch up. Hows everyone else feel about that?

I don't mind what we do in Melbourne - and I think two days is a good idea. Maybe if we throw a few ideas around, and talk about the things we like doing… that might help us firm up a few plans.

I'm having a tantrum with my scales and weight loss at the moment. Don't know why, but I have to get my head back into a more disciplined place, and rediscover my motivation for losing weight.

It's a bit dangerous when you move into a workplace where you're more physically active, and where your work hours are all over the place, because it's hard to find a routine. It's also true that I'm guilty of thinking: "Oh I can eat that, I'll burn it off this afternoon". And that isn't very real.

So it's time to set some goals for this week, and STICK to them.

• On work days, eat no more than 1700 cals/day;

• On days off, eat no more than 1450 cals/day;

• DRINK some bloody water!!!;

• Make sure I walk at least 10,000 steps every day; and

• Aim for at least five serves of fruit/veges every day.

• Eat no more than 150 calories/day of "treats".

I'm not going to weigh in for a couple of weeks, because I want to get my eating goals back on track before I measure my progress.

How is everyone else going?

:)
Ani

i bit the bullet and weighed my wrotten self lol .. i have joined the biggest loser challenge over on the exercise forum and had to weigh in .. I joined the Challenge becuase i think it might help if i dont lose weight i let a team down :) lol might be a good push for me.. I need some motivation man lol but .......... i knew i had gained but OMG>>>>> i have gained 5 pounds :P :P :P :P :P not happy Jan ..

I have got back on track so though im pissed at myself im not about to go drown my sorrows in food lol .. So at least the gain stops here.. I always gain weight when im sick ... lol its sucks.. I hardly eat anything when i feel sick then i do eat (and yes i know it was crap food hubby was home lol ) and i gain weight just like that and i didnt even go over my calories its just was crap food ..... .. 5 pounds that took me months to loose is back ........... What can i say but .......grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr... lol

Ok i have had my spit.. Im not going to sulk I'm gonna go work my azz off and some off those hips and stomach too lol ..

My food and exercise are 100% on track ATM so i should start losing again.. I will have weigh ins once a week with the challenge lol ... i know i was trying to avoid the scales but i spose once a week is ok .. wish me luck ..

Lindor you are 100% right i do get the whole whats the point feeling lol It must be hard to budget food when your never home lol ...

Ani i think we should have a scale burning bombfire lol ... I bet women from all around would come lol .. I wish i could come to melbourne .. we could all find a nice tall building to throw the scales off of .. lol ..

No throwing scales off the buildings lol. But we'd love to have you :p

Bad naughty scales! I decided to jump on them this morning and I have GAINED 0.9kg in two weeks. Excellent :(.

So - this stops now. I will NOT allow changing circumstances to stuff up my good work.

I realised this morning that this is Week 90 for me, so I have a new challenge. I have just come up with a 10-week challenge for myself in which my goal is to either maintain or lose weight EVERY week for the next ten weeks.

AND (this is huuuuuuuuuge)

I am going to try and give up chocolate :eek:.

Now those who know me will realise that this is a major statement. Sometime in the future I will figure out a way to incorporate a little bit of chocolate into my healthy lifestyle, but in order to do that I need to stop cramming chocolate into my daily calorie count - and still having it when I've reached my allowance. So for the next week I am going to try and eat NO chocolate, and see how I go.

Wish me luck :dizzy:.

"sigh" I've had a shocker of a weekend.......well Saturday wasn't that bad, but yesterday I ate like a pig. If it was edible I ate it. Why do I do this to myself. The kids and I made chocolate crackles and I thought I could have one. Just a little one. Just to see what they taste like. One turned into four. Then chips and some cheese and salami, a couple of glasses of wine. I felt really sick by the time I went to bed. Serve myself right! So I'm betting that there will be no loss for me this week.

Hey Lindor, I saw a commercial for Pringles Rice Sour Cream and Chives (I think).

Barb

Oh dear Barb! Feels yuk doesnt it. When you have a splurge and then feel sick later it makes you feel even worse. AND guilty. Just look upon it as a special weekend treat. I'd love to have a glass of wine occassionally but it makes me feel sick. Just one after dinner would be greast lol. I don't really drink much at all. The occassional beer. (I've been told I'm just one of the guys lol).

And Ani chocolate. OMG I never used to even LIKE chocolate, but after my last bub I can't give the stuff up.

Today and the past few days every day I have had a boost nutty bar, and twisties and upteen cups of tea n coffee. I MUST STOP.

I will make that my personal challenge to. NO chocolate for at least 3 days. And water upon rising and at least one glass morning noon and night.

I work in layby tomorrow and if quiet I am going to climb the stairs for 15 minutes. Just to get my body in exercise mode again.
