The Delay in Diet Blog Was Due To Snow On The Line..

Well, it works for public transport so why not me?

My apologies in writing a new blog post but was jolly busy, what with work & dieting & having a life outside, which I have to say, is awfully stressful.

Right, on to the good part.. I lost 7lbs last week! Which puts me at 15 stone 10 lbs & my BMI classifies me as overweight & not obese, which is nice.

So, 2nd week back on track & am feeling fab, it is nice not to be bloated & have energy & ultimately, be in control of what I eat again.  I bought some weightwatchers scales, as I know I can do this without meetings & to be honest, the meetings held me back..

I found that going to the meetings each week was very stressful & that stress manifested itself into bad eating. So remove the trigger & it suddenly becomes easier.  So am doing well & the scales are fine to use, they show my weight, that is all I need.  I believe that some technology hinders progress, but that is for another topic.

We shall see what wednesday brings.  New blog post on its way with an actual weightwatchers topic on it, gasp!

Stay Frosty x

When Ideas Aren't Best Thought Out..

I am currently waiting on weigh in sometime next week to start the diet.. So why dont I start it now? It is daft, that I need an exact point in time to commence something that I could start today & feel better in a couple of days.. the logic is blinding.

And the funny thing is I am sick of eating crappy foods, I just don't feel it anymore. I am at that point now where my body is physically to used to the junk food.. where the points between junk food & comfort correspond & healthy eating is just a blur.

I could start the weightwatchers tomorrow with the greatest of ease, but I am waiting for a time when I can go to a weigh in.  Maybe it is the point of finding out how much I have inhaled which is stopping me from dieting now, to shock my subconscious into realising what damage I have done. & by not dieting now I have an accurate representation of the scale of destruction my falling off the wagon has done, maybe.

Or maybe it is that I am scared.

Either way, next weigh in I am going & 2010 is going to be the year I get to goal.  I have too much to look good for that I cannot be a fatty.  Vanity? Oh hell yes!

What Manner Of Time & Space Is This?

Where am I? & for that matter, where have I been?!

Oh it feels an age since I have been here & I have missed it too.. So allow me to state that I am okay & just been too busy, but am getting things on track again x

I managed in November to get to 14 stone 10.5lbs, from 20 stone 8lbs, but have epically failed & been off track for what seems like aeons ago.

But am going to go to the New Year meeting & finally get this back on track, because boy! Am I feeling it now..  I feel grotty & bloated, but most of all I miss the implemented regime that helped me back on track.

I miss blogging, so am starting again to put down my thoughts & somehow make sense of this life..

It has been too long & I have missed you all x

It has been awhile..

Where were we?

The last Blog I posted was saying I had a sneaky peek on my friends scales & showed I had lost 8.5lb.. So was quite pleased with that.. I was 16 stone 10.5lb & happy.

Well.. I went to official weigh in the week after & was actually 15stone 12.5lb, so if you remove the sneaky peek & take into account I was 17stone 5lb last official weigh in, that is 21.5lb loss!! Over the moon was an understatement..

& last week went again & lost another 4lb, so that put me at 15stone 8.5lb.. half a pound away from a 70lb loss, which is not bad if I do say so myself x

So went to weigh in yesterday afternoon.. & lost another 3lbs!!

So currently I am 15 stone 5.5lbs, which is more than I expected. I am now 19.5lb from goal.. I am aiming for that by christmas..

So all in all, it is has been worth it x

Well, what a nice surprise..

I wasn't intending to weigh in, but was at friend's house last night & the scales was calling me..

Well, bearing in mind, that I last weighed in on the 8th July after a week off the diet & weighed 17 stone 5lbs.

I am now 16 stone 10.5lbs, so a loss of 8.5 lbs which I am really pleased with..

So am keeping it up & seeing what the next 3 weeks brings :D

Subway :D

Walked into a subway in the city centre after work, to get something for my dinner & the manager saw my uniform.. I got a foot long meal deal for £4.49p, which is a bonus.  And  I got a privilege card, so as long as I go in my uniform then I get this discount.

I knew why there was a reason I enjoy being a nurse hee hee x

I always like subway, as for 10 points I can have a foot long chicken breast, lettuce & light mayonnaise on Honey Oat, & it fills me up until tea time.. Also, having 30 points a day gives me some freedom to enjoy it & not think about it.

Weightwatchers is going well, & when in work I have a structure now so it helps with the diet; & I plan much better now.
Am looking forward to weighing in mid august & seeing how much I have lost.. Am resisting sneaky peeking!

Absence makes the memory go funny :D

Dear blogging fellows

I am writing this letter to say with deepest regret, how sorry I am for not blogging in what seems aeons ago.. Sometime in the far far distance I posted something to which my memory is a little hazy, but now am back.

The reason for this absence is that I started work 2 weeks ago after a long period of unemployment, I am so glad I now have a job & finding it fun, frisky & frolicky, not to mention fundamental, fantastic & something else beginning with f.. I feel great & my diet is going wonderfully well. 

Furthermore can I apologise for the accidental alliteration which persistently pops up unintentionally in this brilliant blog..  It is with saddened surprise that the actual alliteration is caused by magical me to alleviate anxieties about my death defying disappearance.

I have to considerably confess that I haven't weighed in for 2 weeks now as I have been working shifts which means I can't get to meetings, however I am still pointing & tracking, & am throughly enjoying the diet in question.

I hope to get to a meeting after pay day so that I can do monthly pass (okay, so that isn't until 18th August), but I have to admit, not having to weigh in each week is less stress & am finding it easier to just chill out & enjoy weight watchers, rather than having to stress each week about how much i have to lose.

Where I am working there is 3 floors & being a nurse I have to keep on the go, which helps with my fitness.. I am finding it easier to get about now I have lost some weight & in all, the job is helping my weight loss.

My apologies for the disturbing delay in blogging & also, this long letter.

I hope I find you all well & that this letter finds you all in superb spirits x
