Be Good To Yourself - Part 1

[Albear]

Marie - thankyou for the ball suggestion. I might give this a go. Is there a DVD to follow? I don't know that I would do much good otherwise! Good luck with your weigh-in tonight.

Good luck with your target Julie. I am feeling more determined today and have been 100% good so far. It must be everyone's positive attitude[msnsmile2]. So thankyou everyone for your posts, I have really struggled this last couple of weeks to get going again and have not made it back to class since rejoining [msnembarrased] Not sure how that is going to look tomorrow night when I AM going to class!! And I am sure I have put some on in those 2 weeks, not lost any.[msnsad]But the jeans are really starting to feel tight so I have given myself a good talking to. Please feel free to nag if I haven't posted. Quiet = guilty of snacking!!

Hope everyone has a good week.

Hi Pam I am here Been very busy with the showroom which opened (unfinished) on Saturday. 2 bays need tiling on the floor and the product put in and then we are there! In between working 6 / 7 day weeks we are still trying to clear MIL's flat - which needs to be done by the end of next month. Food plan has gone to pieces although I seem to have managed to lose a few more pounds I put on in Florida.

So yesterday was the big day, whole family are now on a food plan, low carbs (so red days most of the time) as ED and I do have problems with IBS and I always feel better eating no bread and pasta. So today had large cooked breakfast, tuna salad for lunch and am cooking chicken in tarragon sauce with creme fraiche and broccoli and spinach. Tons of water is being drunk too, so my halo is shining today.

Was fed up with the muffin top coming back on my jeans, so am going to get it sorted! Also only 6½ weeks until my next op where I will a) be weighed and b) my surgeon will see the results of any lack of control in the tummy area so I am being shamed into it.

ED and I are feeling more focused now - and I am walking just the young dog which helps as we are back to our normal length whereas when the old one comes it is a quick (actually don't know why I said that as is painfully slow) 10 / 15 mins at best).

Forgot to say DH booked flights for ED and I to go to Florida 1 - 15 June and we went mad and traded in our airmiles to go business[clap]. Just looking for the car now - where a 22 yr old is covered for driving!

[canarypam]

Yes we booked our flights a couple of weeks ago 31 May - 22 June so we are both going all out to get rid of some of our ugly fat! We also have mostly red days because we feel that we lose more by not eating bread and pasta.

Maybe you can slow down and have a bit more you time once the showroom is finished Fiona?

Wow all this positivity sounds fantastic[clap][clap][clap]

Marie keep off your own scales mrs and wait until tonight other wise you may lose control before you even weigh in[grouphug] I really hope it's a loss I will be thinking of you and waiting for you to post later[clap] Well done on keeping in control last night[clap][clap][clap]

Julieanne you are like me and you just know how much you should weigh, keep up the good work I and I know you will see results soon[clap]

Fiona great to hear from you and as usual you are mega busy but sounding very positive too[clap]

Frances, Brenda, Jan, Pam and Ali you guys are all back on track by the sounds of your posts too[clap][clap]

Ali I can thoroughly recommend a core ball too[clap]

Paula hope you are on the mend[grouphug]

I think Sandra is on a cruise but I could be wrong - hope you are OK Sandra[grouphug]

I am having a red day today which is hard as I don't really like meat so planning on fresh tuna steak tonight[msntongue] So far today I have been 100% and have been making an extra effort to cut down on the little things too where I can.........

banana and actimel 1.5 syns
small skinny latte at Thorntons and I did not have time to drink it all and I gave the free choc to YS[angel] Made a pepper and onion omelette for lunch but used 1 less egg and only half the olive oil and did not have any dressing/sauce just some little gems lettuces which are so nice at the moment[msntongue] Plus a have had some blueberries too[msntongue]

Off to ring the hospital now that did my knee operation as things are just not getting much better[msncry]

Have a nice afternoon all, check in again later[msnsmile2]

i stayed the same at class weigh in, i was a bit disappointed but it will just spur me on to try even harder, seems to be a pattern with me at the minute i have a small loss, stay the same then lose a chunk so i'm going to aim for a chunk next week [msnwink]

Fiona good to hear you are going for it too and that halo is shining [angel] i think you more than deserve business class mrs[msnsmile2]

Ali, there are a lot of dvd's for core training, if you check out amazons website there are some great prices too

off now to eat tea, i'm starving
