Binge day
The day started off ok. had a driving lesson. went ok apart from the 10 cars beeping me as i kept stalling going up a big hill (ok its only a little hill but its very steep and right on to a main road and they kept beeping and jeering as they speed past me! then i fucked up again 1hour 40mins ok driving to mess it up in last few mins!)
Then we went to Skipton North Yorkshire to see my granparents and i saw some sheep - ekkk i hate sheep , after some deep breaths i managed to take some pics
The Sheepdog sheep it think it quite good, there was also a coronation sheep like bet lynch and this photo sheep
I lost its nose as the man in the pic above pushed me as i took the pic, i'm amazed its in focus!
Food ekkk B A D!
i didn't eat til 2.15pm a butty and a salad and a bag of grapes from Morrisons, then we got home and i have had a white muffin with cornbeef, white bread and turky, some mini jammy dodgers, a mini dairy milk bar, some mini mini cookies, some jam on toast. i can't stop!

half a world away
Song lyrics seem to be the theme of the week - you guessed it i've got oasis on itunes as we speak.
Yesterday i meant to talk about my title, there are three sides to this story. Then i rambled on.
What i was going to say was that i think those words apply to weight loss, for me they do and for people in my slimming world class as well.
I am the weigh-in girl and i notice what people tell me at the scales and what they tell the consultant vary wildly. I also know my self on my weigh loss journey i constantly lie to myself!
when people get on the scales there is a wide variety of emotions and lots are pheeeew i managed to lose/ only gain a little bit it was a bad week, then in class they say they are devastated and don't understand sometimes i want to put my hand up and say you confessed x y z to me at the scales and you were bloody happy with what the scales said. then on the flip side people who put loads on who don't get it at all, then in class the full confession comes out, because they have sat and chatted with people and realised what they've been thinking of as "free" food really needs to be counted and they they are ok with the gain, then there are the people who get that really shock when they think they've had a bad week and get on the scales and lose and sometimes lose good! i love the look on their faces and often say i nearly didn't come, my scales at home made me fear the worst! In class those people are often very modest and tell the truth and say i don't know how i did it.
as i've said before i often kid myself, tell myself that its ok to have 3 pieces of bread instead of 2, low fat spread doesn't count etc.
so my three sides are
What i tell myself - it won't make any difference
What i tell the world - such as i don't know why i've gained
The scales - the all knowing wise wisdom of the world - if i've had a good week, i will lose, if i've had a bad week i will gain!
Ok sometime but only few and far between times when the scales don't know everything, such as water retention.
I also believe although this contradicts what slimming world tells us. they my body doesn't know i weigh in 7pm monday nights so it has to lose and gain between that 7 day period. i believe if you have a truely bad week and lose it will catch up on you no matter how good you are the following week and it think its important not to get complacent if you have a few bad weeks and still lose, it will catch up on us in the end. i also think if you have a fab week and gain not to lose faith that goodness will catch up if you have another good week.
my 4lb loss has spurred me into action.
i have gone over syns today as i had a krispy kreme doughnut for 14.5syns i didn't enjoy iy very much plus i'd already had other stuff and i still haven't had my tea!
one bad food choice does not need to lead to a bad food day / week / month
Happy bank holiday people and i might post again later with todays thoughts and food diary

Ok Diet wise - another good day.

Snack
Mullerlight yogurt
plum
slice of turkey
Tea
Sw Lasangne Free + 1 HxA (cheese)
Filo and Cherry tartlet 5 Syns

Everybody, Rock your body right!!!!!!
Everybody
Rock your body
Everybody
Rock your body right,
Backstreet's back alright!
Oh my god we're back again
Brothers sisters everybody sing
Gonna bring the flavor
Show you how
Gotta a question for you
Better answer now
Am I original
Yeah
Am I the only one
Yeah
Am I sexual
Yeah
Am I everything you need
You better rock your body now
(Chorus) Everybody yeah
Rock your body yeah
Everybody
Rock your body right
Backstreet's back alright
Now throw your hands up in the air
And wave 'em around like you just don't care
If you wanna party let me hear you yell
Cuz we've got it going on again
when trying to think of a title this song got stuck in my head - so now its in yours!!!
Sorry for another absence - you guessed right i was off the wagon!
But here i am reporting for duty again.
Diet wise i'm still FAT! but not miserable. yes i am still over my current lowest weight but hey ho - worse things happen at sea!
As of WI monday i am at 16stone 8lbs (232lbs) i'm 2lbs away from 50lbs loss (3stone 8lbs) i'd really like to get that this week.
Last monday i lost 4lbs - not quite sure how, all i can think of is that this morning Mama nature arrived with a little gift and i wasn't wrapped in a red box with a bow like the tv ads show! Also another lie of TV ads they always say you feel really hot at that time of the month but i'm the opposite very very cold!!!!
Speaking of TV has anyone else noticed when ever they record (i have recordable freeview) on Channel 4 there is always an episode of friends going off!

Celebrate Sucess not Mourn Failure
I have been a bad blogger and a bad dieter and i have said time and time again when one goes the other one goes. BUT i am here and i am blogging so i must be half way back on track.
i feel like i want to do this not just that i can do it.
On slimming world website there is a members area for people who go to the classes we get a new "secret" password each week. within the members area there is a page to record your weight loss and when you reach an award (each half stone / 10% / target/ Slimmer of the week) it gives you a virtual award - see my side bar for my awards, when i logged on this week i spotted my 3½ stone i cliked on it and it made me realise how far i've come.
i have:
its spured me on i want more awards!
There are 19weeks til Xmas - or so facebook says! How far can we get by then?
My main goal for this year is to have lost more than 26.5lbs which is what i lost last year (it had been more but life got in the way!)
on SW website it also gives you a predicted weight loss if you set a target my target is set at my 2nd 10% weight of 16st 3lbs and on 4th jan this year sw said i'd get there by 23rd Aug. in my mind i thought it'll be way before then but its 3 wi's away and i'd really like to get it by then!

Here's to everyones sucess to date!
AND
Here's to our future sucess!
We can do this!!!!!!
