Quick Catch Up

Just a quick update on where I am right now.

Still feeling pants, still got my ear infection and generally unwell. Went to bed at 6.30pm the other night, bed before the twins! and slept all night, totally run down.

Anyway I think I'm maintaing my weight in stead of gaining which is good but I must get into weighing myself once a week.

Running shoes are out and I will be jogging in the morning come rain or shine. First time since my Race For Life on 15th July! Time to wobble some fat off again me thinks.

I'm just not in the mood

What a a week I'm having!

Not well, have a ear infection and it's so painful and just to top it off I'm not sleeping well at all so I'm so tired.
Basically I'm feeling very sorry for myself and have just eaten half a packet of jelly babies! woops. Ahhh I really didn't want to di it but I had then and I did so I need to get over it and get back on track straight away.

I've not been weighed in a while cos I didn't go with Ray to see the nurse on Friday, which I was going to do and get weighed there. Anyway I will get weighed on Friday. Going to have to use the wii fit for my weigh in cos my scales are pants.

I feel like I'm really not getting back into the swing of things and don't know what to do. I've not started to exercise again either and I have a lack of motivation. I am really trying to just let things go though and gain weight, which I haven't so I guess that's one good thing, I know I can maintain if I want to.

Send me motivation by the bucket loads please!

This morning...

I got weighed whilst I was in with Ray to see the nurse. Now I know my scales are pants but they are all I have, so I weighed myself and I was 15st 4lb.
Anyway I'm not going to get weighed until we go back to the nurse next Friday now.

Ray has just found out the he's diabetic so we are both going to knuckle down now and make sure that we eat healthily. It will be so much easier working as a team. Ray has already lost 4lb in one week by just cutting out all the sweet stuff, I don't eat all the sweet stuff anyway so I can't cut it out to make a difference.

Anyway housework to be done :O)

Schools Back!

Woo hoo!

I lost half a pound this week which I am over the moon with it. I've not been very strong or motivated this week but I have still tried to keep control.

Right, this week I'll be getting back into a routine. This may be made easier by the fact that Ray now has to loose weight.
It's always been tough when it's just been me watching what I eat and Ray just eating what he wants, buying whatever food he likes.

I'm back at pilates today too, haven't been in months and am quite looking forward to it. I may even pop in the gym after class and hopefully I can slowly get back into the swing of things and get the weight loss going.

Lets see what the week brings!

Rant

I fancy a rant so here we go!

I'm so wound up at the moment with the kids, grrrr. Can't wait for Monday to come so they can go back to school and I can get my head on straight.

The twins fight at times but not too serious, but Jack hates Abi. He says he doesn't love her and that really upsets me. Me and my brother were never close but I loved him, he also hated me so I know how it feels to grow up with a brother who doesn't love you.
I obviously don't know what to do about this and it's driving me round the bend!

Just been shopping for the boys shoes so that I could get out the house for a while and get away from everybody.

I hate it when I have things like this on my mind because I can't seem to be able to concentrate on anything else and I struggle with my diet. I am going to have to try extremely hard to just put this to the back of my mind until I work out a way of dealing with it and just stay as relaxed as possible. I really am quite highly strung these days and need to chill out a hell of a lot.

I've gone from doing reasonably well on ww, jogging 3/4 times a week, pilates once a week, self defence twice a week and the gym on occasions to doing nothing. Just being stuck at home with the kids, not having any energy and wanting to stuff my face with rubbish.

I know what I need to do but I'm finding it hard to do it. What I need is a huge kick up the backside!

I am going to phone up and book into pilates class for Tuesday, that is one step in the right direction. I will also make sure that when Tuesday comes round I will visit the gym too. As far as everything else is concerned I will take it one step at a time getting back on track.

I lost a grand total of.........

1lb this week. Not quite what I was expecting but at least it's a loss.

Feeling really stressed out still and it's totm so I'm craving bad stuff, not giving in though! Hopefully I will have a bigger loss next week, my period doesn't usually make a difference to my loss but since I had the coil fitted I have been very swollen and sore at times. We'll see.

Kids are back at school on Monday, woo hoooo! They are really starting to get bored now and it's getting harder to keep them entertained. Think we're off to the cinema this week and maybe even swimming.

Here's to a good week :O)
