somethings got to give!

Grrrr...1/2lb on! Yet another bloody gain - whats happening to me?

I need to find a way out of this slump - my head knows what it should be doing, but my hearts not in it.

Not good.

Bug-ger...

woke up this morning with a vile headache, spent most of the morning on the loo (perhaps I should WI again today!) and the rest of the time feeling sick, dizzy and very tearful. Hmmm, a bug methinks - might also explain why I havent been myself this week!

I forced myself to have 2 x crumpets for breakfast, as I thought the feeling sick/dizzy was down to not eating.
wrong.

I've been drinking herbal teas, but its now gone lunchtime and I cant bring myself to eat anything - not a good start to my being 'back on track', but cant be helped I guess. I shall aim to keep up my water consumption in any case, if nothing else it will help flush me out...

Thank goodness for the weekend - nothing planned for this one, so intend to just go with the flow and hope this bug passes quickly.

have a good one people!

Lardy Da...

WI this morning brought everything into sharp relief, with a 1.5lb gain, how did that happen? (rhetorical question)

OK its been an bit of an emotional couple of weeks, and I know some of it will have been comfort eating, but even so, no one force fed me the KFC I had last night.....which I didnt want, and was hideous btw, and when all else fails there is always the word 'no'.

meh.

I desperately want/need to motivate myself, and I am trying, but nothing seems to be happening! What is wrong with me!

I stayed to meeting today, and even that had no effect. I have a WW magazine here that I bought a couple of weeks ago, and I have yet to read it. I've thought about reading it, but I just cant pick it up - its almost like I have a mental block. Twice today I have thought - I'll go and read that in a minute, but then I dont....and I am not even sure what I have done instead!

Does anyone else ever get like this? How do you get yourself out of it?

I really need to get back on my game, but while I know what I have to do, and can sit here talking about it, I cant seem to put the words into action.

tempus fugit.....

yikes - so long since my last post!

Its been a busy few weeks, and I seem to have got out of the habit of everything 'weightwatchers'.
No planning, no pointing, no tracking, no drinking of of water- losing that first stone was more luck than judgement I think!
The only thing I have tried to do was go to meetings to get weighed, but even that wasnt always possible. I'm just thankful not to have put weight on!

Exams and interviews over, my young people can now quite deservedly relax and enjoy their summer, and I can hopefully get myself back into the habit of tracking etc - and more importantly blogging. I didnt realise quite how much getting my thoughts and feelings down, helped me make sense of it all!

The upside is, I feel that my body shape is changing and people are starting to notice....possibly because I am not wearing my usual big, shapeless, baggy t-shirts over jeans, and am actually making a bit of an effort! I still reckon I look like my Dad in drag (love him), but hey, baby steps!

I need and really MUST start staying to meetings, rather than the rush in, weigh, rush out regime of late - it cant be helped, or at least in couldnt be in the last few weeks, but I had no excuse for bunking off last Thursday.
I had intended to stay, really I had - I'd even got myself a cuppa, but then something (or should I say someone) happened.
There is a member who (quite irrationally) bugs the sh*t out of me...she would dominate the whole meeting if the leader didnt shut her up. I am sure she is a very nice lady - certainly she seems very popular, and there can be no denying she has lost a lot of weight, but her nasal whiny voice cuts through the air like a knife, and I swear will make my ears bleed if subjected to it for too long.....btw - did I mention I am hormonal?!
Oddly enough a Gold member who knows everything there is to know about WW and who has lost and kept off a mahoosive amount of weight for years, seems to annoy most folk, yet I find her very interesting....horses for courses eh?

RIGHT! I need to get over this silliness and FOCUS ON ME, not anyone else.
