Varied day

Went to school with R in morning. Slept in afternoon. Went for walk round marine lake with Colette in evening. Ok, did have lovely salty chips………..

Scoffed when I got home too
But
Have prepared a very low calories tasty veg soup for tomorrow to start the 5:2 diet.
Onwards and downwards! (Weight).

Colette and I at the lake.

Still on the soups! ?

Ahhh the relief when the painkillers kick-in. Seeing dentist tomorrow.
Been doing salt water mouth rinsed which is yucky for me as I can’t stand salt. I never ever use it in cooking, never have.
Had chicken roll for lunch, soft roll. Soggy cornflakes for tea and a ham sandwich in evening, not exactly a balanced diet.
Got a sparkly dress from eBay, felt quite lovely in it. The photo’s though………….oh my goodness, how to look short round FAT and flabby in one go.
Years ago, ok a decade ago. I was at my heaviest of 12 stone. Felt enormous. Felt awful.
I am only 11 lbs below my heaviest ever weight now. Weirdly I don’t feel as big as back then but I certainly look it.
It wasn’t until I got nearer 10 st that I started to feel better.

I am determined to get healthier, fitter and slimmer again.

As in the 3 photos above, all taken round 2003/4.

Supper cooking

Have cooked a lovely chicken soup for lunch tomorrow. Chicken, carrot, leek, touch of chilli and ginger, stock.

Think I will have scrambled eggs for breakfast.
Feeling motivated
Feeling positive

Love my family so much.

Stayed the same

Just got weighed in work by Nurse Karen, and I have stayed the same 72.2 kgs. Not sure what thst is in stones n lbs but it doesn’t sound too bad!
Whoooo hooooo am going away for the weekend tonight with friend/work colleague, who asked if I would like to go along to cottage in Lake District.
Of course I would.
Ok, work time (8:15 am). Oh and the sun is shining and I’m stuck here, boo hoo!!!!

WHOO hoooooo

Whoo hoooo. Been super good today. Made a fab chicken broth/soup last night and had some for lunch today in work, with a large satsuma. Then ok, a bit samey but had the rest of the chicken soup at home after work for tea. Today I have the feeling that I CAN do it, I really can!

Feeling spotty so hiding away! OMG saw myself in the mirror at work, how FAT is my butt…………..Arghgh. where’d that come from????
