Hi everyone just a flying visit while my emails download and then I need to get to work

Thanks all for the birthday wishes...I had a fantastic time doing just what I wanted to do....They did manage to get me to have a meal in the end, but it was at the pub where I wanted to go to in the first place, but they told the pub how many people were going and they closed off the top floor of the pub for us..so those that wanted to eat could and those that didn't could still stay up there and just drink without disturbing anyone else not in our party who had gone just to eat..which was really nice. I was very good and had a salad and a jacket potato.
Afterwards we all went back to my sisters, where they had decorated the house with birthday banners and balloons, it really was great.
my hubby had made the biggest chocolate cake I have ever seen for me, he said he looked to find a recipe for a low calorie cake but couldn't find one and he thought...oh what the heck..she wont eat it anyway so he went all out and made one for everyone else to enjoy....I swear there must have been about 100000 calories in that cake...but I did eat some of it and I don't regret it at all....I cut down on my calories for 3 days before saturday and I cut down again on sunday so I think I have made up for anything that I ate over my limit on saturday...If I have gained anything this week I am not going to beat myself up about it...it was worth it and I think just this once I deserve it...now I am going all out to reach my final goal...this is definitely the home stretch

Today is also my 20th wedding anniversary and I am cooking a meal for us both...no danger in me overeating today

I got the new digital camera that I wanted and took some pictures on saturday night I will try and get them posted on my webpage when I get home, but being my wedding anniversary I'm not sure hubby will be too thrilled if I spend it on the computer so it may be tomorrow before I get it done.
Well better go...work calls

Have a great day everyone

Ali :wave

Cheated a bit here and stepped on the scales, buI have good news cos it showed a four pound loss from last week...wonder why it showed today after one day of being on track, after a bit of a naughty weekend?
Have a great week everyone. Ali, your hubbys chocolate cake sounds scrummylishus, I'm glad you ate some and enjoyed it, cos you certainly do deserve it

Chris.

Smiling Sal · 10-01-2002, 12:26 PM

Chris, I have decided that scales are more tempremental than men !!

Glad you had a good time Ali, wish I could be as focused.

WW today, new offical weigh in day, Gained 4.5lbs - thought it was 5.5 - said so on the other thread, but it is only 4.5 - just checked with my footnote. So I gained this week and will no doubt undo everybodies hard work in the group total, but I think most of the gain is down to the different scales, different time of day and the fact that I couldn't strip naked in the church hall to weigh in. So onwards and downwards to next Tuesday.

BritinNJ · 10-01-2002, 05:43 PM

Carol, well done on going to WW. See how your weigh in was less than you thought, that's a nice way to start back on programme isn't it luv. Glad you did it, cos you do sound focused to me. I love the fact that you're brave enough to post your journal, I have had a read and you not only make me laugh with your ways of words but the fact that you are so honest about yourself is such good character

I truly reckon you are back on track so here's to you and a great week.
Take care.
Chris.

Posy · 10-02-2002, 02:40 AM

Carol its nice when you don't gain as much as you think you have...don't think of it as a gain anyway, just take it as a new start...you are doing great ...just hang in there

just popped on to let you all know I have put a couple of pictures on my website if you want to go and take a look...I was having a bit of trouble getting the main pictures to download properly last night but I managed this morning so I will add some more later

Ali

BritinNJ · 10-02-2002, 06:57 AM

Ali, just looked at your new pics. You look absolutely wonderful. Your dress is fantastic.

Smiling Sal · 10-02-2002, 01:49 PM

Ali you have so much to be proud of, those pictures are gorgorous.

I bet people you haven't seen for a while walk right past you.

BigPhatBooty · 10-03-2002, 05:18 AM

Ali - you look amazing! Now where did you say you got those shoes......

Posy · 10-03-2002, 02:47 PM

Thanks everyone

I just put a few more pics on the webpage which was more of a challenge than it should have been...all the files kept getting corrupted as I tried to upload them...I spent hours trying to figure out what was wrong I saved them all to different formats and still no luck. I finally gave up and went off to check my emails and found one from angelfire telling me they were having trouble with the servers ...it wasn't me at all...oh well...it kept me from snacking which is a good thing...TOM is due this week and I always used to get really hungry around this time...over the past few months I haven't been too bad, but this week I seem to have gone back to how I used to be and if anything looks remotely like food, I could eat it...the dog is starting to look very worried

I haven't given in to any temptation though...I've come to far to blow it all now

Thanks Chris I love that dress too...the only thing I don't like is that it shows off all the flabby loose skin on my upper arms...but I can always wear a cardigan to hide it

Carol there are loads of people who don't recognise me now, especially as I now have very short red hair...for the last 20 odd years it has always been very long and Black.

BPB....I got the shoes off a stall on the local market...only cost me £10 and I love them :

Sorry that I couldn't post this earlier (computer down) but the good news is I lost 2lbs this week - I am now 16.9!! I know for a lot of people that is still huge - but for me I feel positively skinny!!

jingo · 10-04-2002, 03:00 PM

No loss to report I'm still stuck still never mind it will shift.
Well done to everyone who has lost something this week. Have a great weekend.

tupperware queen · 10-05-2002, 05:26 AM

Oh I am so peed off, I have gained a lb, now i tried to be cheerful when 2 weeks ago I only lost 1/2 then when i stayed the same last week I thought well it will be a good loss next week..........and now I am a lb heavier so that means I am half a pound heavier than I was 3 weeks ago, i hate those bloody scales...sorry for my swearing............help me.

Strange thing is I have on my tightest trousers today and they glided on, no lying down to fasten the zip etc!!!!!

Delaney · 10-05-2002, 06:25 AM

Hi Michelle - I'm sorry you gained 1lb - but remember how well you've done - you've lost about 5 stone for heaven's sake!! and don't those tight trousers feel great???
