Random ramblings :)

Good afternoon!
Hope you have all had a good day and been good on the plan... its a bugger isnt it!! Weekends are going to be the worst for me with everyone home.. food is such a large part of family life and I am missing out!

Anyway, day 2 today and feeling ok - also bought a proper blender and enjoying the shakes! *am I mad?*... makes a HUGE difference!.. I have a frozen one in the freezer in the hope I can have 'strawberry icecream' with a movie later on... hmm we shall see if that works or not! Does anyone know if this 'changes' the shake?

I couldnt help but get on the scales this morning.. this is what I do.. as bad as it is I weigh every day, sometimes a few times a day and i cant stop myself! .. I had my first official day yesterday but Thursday I was also 'dieting' and being good so I thought I would see... anyway, it indicates 4lbs off already! I knew some had gone as my belly has shrunk.. its not so bloated.. noticeably different so must be the water I guess... will be fab if that carries on! i am not going to cheat and will be 100% all week! i cant wait for weigh-in...

One thing that has really got my goat is that the other half and kids have been using my new blender to make delicious milkshakes today in all flavours and all of the 'ooohing' and 'aaahing' is driving me mad! Would a slap offend?

Anyway, thats me for today.. OH got the new Saw 3d flick to watch tonight and I will be gagging for m&ms n crisps.. torture!!

have decided that i am going to keep a diary and write down my thoughts n goals to reflect back on when I want to give up - not sure if i should do it on here or on a blog group.. undecided yet - any tips? Also going to take terrible undie shots of before n after, never done this before but figure it must help as I would love to look back and see how bad I looked 6 stone ago!!

Good luck to everyone else tonight too... weekends are all about behaving and not enjoying lovely food it seems! Staying in is the new 'going out'..!! LOL!

Wow, you seem really focused which is great!!!
I would write a diary on here and maybe a blog too.... ive found writing a diary on here so helpful and reading other peoples diaries is great as you know youre not alone in this!!! The people are so friendly and offer any advice they can.... and not judgemental!!!!

The first few days is hard watching people eating nice food and treats but as soon as the weight starts coming off you wont care for it anymore!! Well done on the 4lb already, thats great!! You are going to have a great first weigh in!!!

I too am a bit like you.... i love buttery popcorn which we used to have on at least a weekly basis watcing a movie either at home or the cinema!! OH has asked many times if he can have some and ive said no because there is too much for just him in a bag and it would be far too easy for me to just reach over and have some!!! Get goodies in for the family that you dont like. Eg i dont like nuts so OH has been eating cadburys whole nut instead of plain
Good luck

good luck to you, yes it seems weekends are worst specially if you have a family

i have found this weekend really hard too, im on day 7 today and been 100 %, weigh in tomorrow, lookin forward to that hopefully it might spur me on.
i cant believe i havent eaten for a week! lol, normally i cant manage an hour!!
well done i say to all those who have stuck to this for weeks on end, takes some willpower to do that, i will try my hardest, im doing 8 weeks of this then coming off for 2 parties, a diamond wedding of my in laws on 1st may then school reunion on 14th may.
