Delighted to hear the weight losses and your news.
I've been on an eating fest, however it's Ash Wednesday tomorrow so I have decided to give up biscuits sweets etc for Lent. I hardly touch these kind of things at home but at work it's a different story. We have lots of stuff left from the goodies the patients gave us at Christmas e.g. big tins of Roses Mini Kitkats etc!! I may even try and get myself to mass tomorrow evening.
I'm not long in from work and just finished off the cold pancakes that my sons have left on their plates that my husband cooked and quite yummy they were too.
Gym tonight and fat night, Shameless is finished but new No Angels!!! Oh what bliss.
Smiler I took a photo of me at my heaviest in and I really looked huge especially since I am so small. Anyway the girls said blimey Michele that doesn't even look like you, your so fat!! I then showed it to the Doctor who works on our unit and she said """ oooh Michele have you a bit of tan "" not a mention of my hugeness what a complete sweetheart!!
Michele

I'm still sick! Superwomen should be BETTER BY NOW I'm worse - I've lost my appetite!! There is something definitely wrong!!
I'm giving up free days for lent I don't know why I ever had them in the first place Worst things ever!
Oh I need some TV!! I have David Attenborough on tape and a program about Munich, but that's about it... I might play some Eddie Izzard. It will keep me amused till DF comes home for his pancakes!

ARGH sounds a nightmare. Big tins of roses are impossible to ignore. It is my birthday next month I want no choc.
Gah, I've been in a meeting all day and haven't been able to eat my normal food. But I coped as well as I could. I had muesli, fruit and yoghurt instead of porridge when I got there (I had to drive to the meeting so didn't have a microwave), some (veggie) sandwiches and a couple of crisps, and then worked my way through the selection of fruit. Then I made some sweet potato and spinach curry which tasted surprisingly nice when I got in, so a good day overall. I'm doing a presentation at an event tomorrow so itwill be buffet food again. I hate buffet food. I'm almost tempted to see whether I can wait til I get back to the office, but I suspect if I do that I'll just reach for the chocolate on the drive back!
And because I was in the meeting all day I've just had to write my presentation. It would have helped if it was on a subject I know anything about
I ran this morning! I started off slow (for me) and built up because my legs felt like they wanted a bit of activity rather than seizing up when I sit down. I ended up doing 5k in 30 minutes, and my legs have felt fine since. So yay for running!
Micheleherts - I don't think I could give up sweet stuff for long! Still, I've been meat free for over a week now, so that will just extend into lent. I don't normally give anything up, but as I was going to anyway it seemed to fit nicely. I did ponder today though whether it was better to eat the vegetarian sandwiches with cheese or the chicken ones without. And then I told myself not to stress.
I've not given up anything for lent.......ah well.
I went and tried on a pair of trousers today. (yes I know no more clothes til May...) They are Matthew Williamson Debenhams ones and are gorgeous. And the size 18 didn't fit. It was too big. And the size 16 didn't fit, they were too long. And of course no other trousers I saw would possibly do, they are the only ones I want. And they have a cuff on them so won't survive being taken up. Must have been designed for Keira Knightly!
I do need a pair of work trousers, I am living in jeans and skirts at present.
no exercise today, I marched around the shops, and I have been walking to my main office every break, which is quite a distance, so should be helping the incidental exercise. I have been working out regularly, but not keeping up my level of activity through the day, so I am trying to rectify that.
Hehe, I saw this post and thought, WOOO Roxette avatar... but it's just you. Darn. Got a little excited thinking someone else knew who they were! Teehee!
Okey dokey Mands, maybe I could have a look at one of your diaries to get the hang of it LOL I did the online diary last night and realised I hadnt sinned my drink and benecol, so was going wrong there. I do have melon but not too many raspberries and strawbs, better get some in then
But if you left who would I get my cuddles from I didnt realise MT was still being stroppy, I have never really had much to do with him since he had his rant and rave at us .......... and I dont really give him much eye contact either LOL Take no notice of him Mands he's being a
tara for now folks xxxx Mary
No worries, I'll bring them in tomorrow if I remember!
Yeah, you need to get into the habit of syning your food before you eat it. My consultant said that was the biggest trap people fell into, ate then realised they'd used double their syns!
I had to have a white bread sandwich today in work. So bang goes my syns for today. The brown rolls had sausages and rubbish in them. I hate this dinner time, there is nothing left! I was falling asleep though in there! I was going without because I wanted a treat of pancakes when I got in. But I had to have something in the end. Ham and Salad... which is fine. But WHITE BREAD. Damn it to ****! Yeah, pack yourself silly with Superspeed foods. I seem to do better the weeks I do that. I have a melon I keep meaning to cut up but I keep forgetting. Doh.
It's getting a bit much with MT though when I get in there at start of shift, he's in the break out area and he turns his back towards me! He's obviously punishing me because Z isn't in the team anymore.
He was semi talking to me again, before the team changes. But now, he gives me right evil looks.
But Russ is still being lovely towards me... much to M's annoyance I think.
Awwww fank you kykaree, Mands is doing just brill I'm so chuffed for her, she will soon start coming out of her shell
What are you after Mary, Miracles!? Haha, Tonys face today when you were on about my shrunken boobs!
Leigh is well chuffed at me too. It's weird, he's really taken an interest in my weight loss bless him!
My mum said to me today when we go to the Lord of the Dance next year, I'll be a skinny *****, so she can see me up in the aisles dancing!
We'll both be size 24 before too long hopefully Mary... and then some!!
Z was eyeing herself up in the mirror today when I went to the bathroom. How does she do it? She could start a new diet, the pizza diet!
I know someone who lost 8 stone and went to a school reunion to show the bullies and she ended up calling them all fat and shouting at them Oh dear!
Thanks for the tip there hun!
I was severely bullied at school. So I had to leave and have a home tutor. Then I tried college, but those same bullies were there. Work I was bullied at. So it took me nearly 9 years to attempt to get another job.
Luckily where I am now, there is an anti bully thing in place... so I haven't *touch wood* had anything bad said towards me.
The chairs in work don't seem to be pinching my bum as much as they did. Could that be a good sign?
I've not at all suffered from it, but our workplace has a bullying problem on occasions. They have been fairly desperate for new staff and hired some young uns that have no sense.
No one would dare bully me, I ain't no victim. I spent 15 years playing the poor pity for me little bullied fat asthmatic. Not anymore!!!!
Off to work in a minute, I can't honestly be bothered this morning, but hey ho. I was in bed early but Col made a racket when he came in last night, really annoyed me. Selfish idiot, but that's men for you.
I'm still sick!
