Monday again and I hanging on!

Monday, 23 Aug at 07:10

Morning all. Well another weekend gone by and I still trying oh so hard.

Been good since Thursday and managed with cooking a meal for friends as well as having partner around for two day sand my grandaughter ove rthe weekend again. I think what has helped is going shopping for 2 days for holiday stuff. Shouldnt have really but the next few weekends running upto hols are going to be busy.

Got jeans on i had gotten into to but god they are killing me. Still i am going to keep them on as it will remind me how desperate i am to lose the weight i have put on before the holiday. Plus if it hurts too much to sit down i will keep busy and motivated.

2 weeks on Tuesday is my holiday so really need to buckle down. Going to take it day by day but try oh so hard.

Hope you are all doing well and keeping to the plan. I am going to struggle now partner left again as he acts as my food police....lol

Thinking of you all.

Hugs

Elly

oh I so relate to this Elly,

I just cant seem to do right for doing wrong where food is concerned. I still have those, Oh it doesnt matter, in my head messages but I too had a trying on weekend and am desperate to get back into my clothes. Just tend to eat the house when I'm on my own, which has been for most of the time just lately... i am fine all day while finding things to do, but in the evening, well i am like a woman posessed. Even ate a whole jelly the other night, striaght from packet, all the cubes as couldnt curb sweet craving. If I drnk any more I'll float as always drink a pint before I indulge to see if I'm hungry? Just dont understand it......
My hol is at xmas so have a few more weeks grace but dont want to leave it all to last minute.... I so understand the dilemma and think when you've done it once it is so much harder 2nd 3rd and 4th time around...... Keep trying though.

Thinking of you. Big Hug. Lee.x

Its nice to hear that i am not the only one who get possessed when on own. I also done the raw jelly thing. I really feel i too need to drink more as before. But as you say its so hard as you get to the point where you are spending most of the day on the loo and with a glass in ones hand. I stopped putting my water in the fridge as its harder to get down when its so cold.

Good luck today and I blog you tonight to make sure you on track.

We was looking lsast night at the night club scene in Salou and plan on having a go even at my 52 years. So must focus on that or not only will the usual clubbers look at me for my age but will frown if i the size of a whale. I made sure fridge is empty and all the treats i brought for kids are locked up and in accessibe to me.

You keep strong

Elly

I know what u guys mean, I've stopped buying anything snack like so there is only food in the house that needs time cooking. Had one bar of chocolate at work and some cookies about a week ago as a treat for going under BMI 25 in ten weeks. Since a child I have been mad about chocolate, therefore its been a struggle with my weight (SECRET EATER). If 4 wot ever reason I am tempted its normally in the evening so I either go to bed or walk the dogs. I need distracking from the food issue. Another tactic is to look through the next directory and pick out my next outfit. If I need a treat I plan it for the weekend and only buy a small amount on the day. Good luck everyone, keep focused for the future and not just today. It's long term goal and i'm loving my new look and size. lol Caz xxx

I feel for anyone who lives with normal food eaters, I do not think I
would cope. On my own and don't buy anything other than
skimmed milk, cat food, toiletries and cleaning materials when
I go shopping, so if I feel like cheating, I can't! Works for me,
I could pop to the shops but that is a planned cheat and in the
time it would take me to get over to the shop, the need for food
will have passed!
Hey Elly, you are a 1958 model too, same here, we've got lots of
life left, go clubbing, don't worry about others, show them how to
enjoy themselves!!
Evenings are very hard, I use the evening to log on and
catch up with the blogs, I get soooo engrossed an hour or two
have passed before I realise it!
I can sympathise with 'tight jean syndrome', once they are on,
they stay on, I laugh at the jeans pattern that stays on
my skin for ages after I have peeled them off!!
Good luck for the rest of the week, keep strong.
