Going nowhere....

I really dont feel like i have done much this week. Its been a god awful week personal life wise and i have expecting * week for over a week and was 4 days late. So my belly is HUGE and i dont look like i have lost the weight i have.I feel bloated/windy and to top it all i am starting with tonsilitis and a cold...So just want to eat ALL the wrong things. I also have a HUGE headache which makes me want to eat cr*p too.

I go on holiday in 9 weeks and just think i am going to be a huge heffer on the beach...i havent dared buy myself any holiday clothes cos i was hoping to fit into last years.

I am also having a case of unrequited love...like a lovesick teenager. My bestest friend in the whole world is male and i am head over heels but scared to say anything in case he runs in the opposite direction....

Someone slap me please....:cry:

Hi Kim

sorry to hear that you are having such an awful week. It's hard enough to be on a slimming journey when things in our lives are on an even keel but it takes alot more effort and determination to follow the plan successfully if we are experiences frequent stresses in our lives.

In my experience there is nothing more that can affect our weight loss than pressure and by putting yourself under pressure hoping that you will fit into last years clothes. It's like you are going to be hearing the clock ticking and the days flying by - try to relax that pressure a little and you might find that things come a little easier for you.

It's a tricky situation with your best friend but I would hope that if you are such close friends and you do end up telling him how you feel, if he does n't see you as more than that, that you can just continue along the path that you are already following.

Keep posting here, we are all here to support each other through difficult times and to offer support and ideas when things are not going exactly according to plan.

I think in these circumstances a hug is more appropriate than a slap

((((((((( Kim))))))))

Firstly, why are you 4days late?

dont beat yourself up. Why ruin your holiday by making yourself feel crap? so what you may not be were you wanted/expected to be, but dont put yourself down by forgetting what you have done. The only one who's critising you like this is you. No one else is gunna think your a heffa on the beach! Its all about the confidence, so hold your head high and be proud of what youv done.
Plus 9 weeks is a really decent amount of time. So what its your * week. some times you sts, sometimes you might gain, somtimes you might even loose.. you dont know till you hit those scales at Wi, so why work yourself up (and risk falling off the wagon) before you even know?



The thing is, * weeks gunna come month in month out for the rest ( or most of lol) your life, your going to have to learn how to cope. Sw is a life change, * weeks are part of life. Gotta work your way round it. Go and cook a massive bowl of sw chips. Its carbs you want, not sweets.


and yes *slap* thats a recipe for disaster! Either suck it up and tell him, and hope for the best.. or stay shhh and appriciate your friendship for what it is.. You never know untill you tell him.. and do you want to look back and say what if? but you may risk the dynamics of your friendship changing for ever.

Plus, you may find that you dont really feel that way about him, its just that when your that close, its a very special relationship and esp as a bloke.. its what you want in a partner.. but there are tonnes of blokes out there who'd be lucky to have you.. and given half the chance you can find someone you feel even stronger about.

Sorry i should add a hug in there too.. was going for the 'tougher love with a loving approach' here..


((hugs)) i know it sucks. xxxxxx

I blame my daughter for messing with my cycle... She is 14 and since she started about 6 months ago i think we are trying to get into sync...lol Unfortunately her 23 day cycle is messing with my 26 day cycle making me 4 days late this month which i think has just intensified the whole bloating/feeling cr*ppy part of it. Nearly over thank god...

Thanks for the hugs and slap

Chin up and onwards and upwards. Gonna look forward to my very thin slice of birthday cake tomorrow. Am not having pizza, am gonna do myself adobo pork...yum yum

Thanks again

Why is that.... you get more than one woman in the house that has a period and the cycles change and get into sink - I so pity my poor husband cause there is me and my two daughters all in sink together so 3 lots of pmt at the same time, he keeps saying he's going to get a tent and sleep in the garden at that time lol

I have no idea...lol

Apparently it happens when women work together as well, there used to be 5 of us who were all PMTing at once.....The only bloke on the team used to get it in the neck.....
