3.5lbs down & no alcohol? WHOOP!!!! :D
 
:hurray::hurray::hurray:yay well done on the 13's :D
I got so close to it before Christmas and it then went all to shite and today I weighed in at a whopping 15st 11lb. I knew it was bad but not that bad. Maybe drinking a bottle of baileys on both xmas day and boxing day (apparently I drink it like milkshake :eek:) as well as 4 bottles of prosecco and two bottles of red inbetween then and the cocktail binge that was the new years eve fest didn't help, oh yeah, I haven't even mentioned the food that accidently fell into my mouth all day every day lol. Hopefully i'll be joining you in the 13's soon.
Well done again sweetie. xx

Edit.......I am having a dry January and February!!!!! lol
 
Had bamboo socks once. They felt very nice but lasted no time at all. Spent some time at my parents' place last week and now my towels feel soft as chinchilla fur :p
 
Kate - You gave me a run for my money with your boozey Christmas!! EmilyRose is right, Baileys is the devil. I had it in my coffee to begin with and then just on it's own and out of the actual bottle at several points! Lovely boozey creamy stuff. Sorry your weigh in wasn't a good one - the first one never is! You're here now and making changes! That run will keep you so motivated.

LaMaaa the bamboo towel is insane. It dried me in like 3 seconds. I am quite in love with it. I love my bamboo socks too! Very nice til you wash them..I will avoid washing towel til I have to and make sure Yank never uses it and then use lots of softener..Or however you are supposed to wash lovely things.

Thank you Cate! I'm feeling amazing.

The 3.5lbs has stayed off and the scales still read the same this morning! I'm up bright and early, have put on new swanky little black dress and am off for hair cut (haven't had it cut since two months before the wedding! So over 6 months! I fail at being a woman.) and then a meeting with my new boss for my placement. It's for Uni so only for 70 days and part of my degree but means leaving my lovely team for 5 months ish..Get to go to the team that works with Adults with learning disabilities though..I did a lot of work with them before I started at my local authority so should be good. Will pop in later with my food - I have a day off today so gonna get some jobs done :D

Have a great day everyone.

Smugly, Sunflower x
 
Hi Hana,

Wow - look at you go!!!! Isn't it nice to see the restraint and hard work is paying off. Glad things are good with you!

Yeah, the comments are so annoying. I remember years ago calling over to my neighbour after I'd been away and gained about a stone, and her comment to me was, 'What have you been eating?' I honestly think I have avoided her ever since.

Your neighbour is an asshole .Sorry but just being honest!
 
*facepalm* Give it up, hunk!

Today has been good - went and got my hair cut *cue lots of throwing my head about like a film star*. I have trichotillomania so one side of my hair is always way shorter than the other so had it cut a bit shorter and some layers put in to disguise the unevenness. Then I walked to my new workplace to see my new manager and caught up about my new role. So much new! Sounds good and I'm feeling really positive about it :) Dropped in on a friend on my way home so didn't get back until 1500 and decided since I hadn't eaten anything to just fast until dinner. So did a little 24 hour fast today before dinner just now. Then I took The Judge to the vet and made some dinner with Yank :) Enjoying a glass of wine with my dinner at the moment - feels like to have a glass and not a whole bottle!

Breakfast:
Lunch:
Dinner: two quorn sausages, home-made pasta sauce with a ton of veggies, olives, 1.5 cups of rigatoni, half-fat cheese & 1 slice garlic bread (683)
Snack: 1 glass chardonnay (123)

Total: 948 (realise this is way too low -will be eating breakfast & lunch tomorrow!)
Steps: 14,500
Alcohol - 187mls white wine
 
:D:D love the photo of your hair. And, I hate you (;)joking) you're so stunning :)

I know Bailey's is evil but it's so lovely. I have it in my coffee over Christmas instead of milk too and it's just the most yummy thing ever. I do only have it over Christmas but the problem I have is that I got given 2 bottles on top of the two I drank. one is open and the other isn't but there is no way I'm bloody giving it away. Maybe I can have a Bailey's Saturday when I have lost my 1st stone and for each stone after that. That sounds totally acceptable doesn't it?!!:p

Well done on the glass instead of bottle :D
 
Lol, this place makes me laugh.

Lovely haircut Hana. It's great to have loads of new stuff going on for a new year.
 
Hey LJ! Nice to see you post my darliiiing.

Right, will post food after dinner but I must vent first.

So, went to the soup kitchen to volunteer tonight - Remember the little old, uber religious lady who roped me into writing this "book" with her? I did 4000 words before Christmas with her, spent hours and hours in a coffee shop with her in my spare time, went out for an incredibly awkward meal with her and Yank and then hinted that I was really busy and would have to see her in the New Year. So, show up tonight and we are being filmed for the BBC (the only bits they filmed with me were with a rottweiler getting it's face allllll up in my vag.) for a documentary about the homeless. I was on dog sitting duty so just look like crazy dog lady. Least hair looked banggggging. Anyway, the lady comes up to me straight away and is like "you look so tired, I'm going to pray for you" and I'm like "fuck yeah I'm tired Hil, I work 50 hour weeks and am doing University full-time as well as this shitting circus every Thursday" and she's like "I'm glad to hear you can still spend a few hours a week with me on the book" and I'm like....*blank, tired stare*
As I was leaving she said "I've got your number...shall I call..orrrr?" and I said "I'm really busy Hil, I'm sure we'll find time (WHY DID I SAY THIS) but we'll talk about it next week".

So then I was a massive coward and came home and called her at home knowing she's out still and left a message saying that University is super crazy at the moment and I can't commit to the coffee dates anymore but can still help her on a Thursday when I get to the soup kitchen (i'm there 1.5 hours early every week as I go straight from work). She is likely to be very unhappy. I do not like being mean. I feel very awkward. I am the worst.

End of vent.
 
You are SO not the worst. You are the opposite. Hana you are entitled to some time for yourself & yank. Stretch yourself too far & something has to give. Let her down gently. You can do it sweets xoxo
 
Heya I totally get why you left her a message. I too have a massive problem with saying 'no' to anyone and it stresses me out totally when i end up doing way too much. at least you told her and you are being honest. You, like me just can't bring yourself to actually say it to their face. that is a really really hard thing to do so don't beat yourself up about it. deep breath and move on. She'll get over it. You do sound like you have a crazy busy life and you volunteer every week on top of work and uni. That in itself is enough.
I am an Explorer Scout leader and sometimes its just doing stuff on a Friday night but most of the time i am spending hours doing stuff for them like organising camps and dealing with idiot parents so i totally understand how we can let ourselves get into doing to much.
Don't beat yourself up about it my lovely. xoxo
