[Not2bObvious]

Just in case we run out of space

Have the helped happier? The antibiotic?
All are still in bed here. CBA today

I've not sat up yet which is when the smokers cough hits I'm not a smoker
Sore throat this morn too, work stress & back to school stress with ds not settling at breakfast club taking its toll I guess.

I'm going to have to spell it out at work, it's too much for one person

Hope you feel better soon happier and sorry to see you still haven't moved. Your ds and mine are similar age aren't they? It's horrible to think of them being upset I hope he starts to like it.

No weigh in today as had Chinese last night.

He's been refusing to get out of car, then clinging on to me & not letting go of me but worse than that I discovered on wed that he was locking himself into toilets there & also took apart the taps one of the days which was falling into child protection issues then. One of the staff is an acquaintance been through similar time with ex h etc, she suggested he could watch YouTube for first 30 mins then have breakfast to see if we could come around him & it worked on Thursday so fingers crossed for next week.
I was debating asking their older sister to have them instead & bf even offered that if ds came to work with me he'd collect him & take him to school but that would be an absolute last resort, ds wants me to drop him to school as I do on Fridays but it's not practical with my job.
He's going on 7 in nov wreck
Also starting to go dry at night & back to school & au pair leaving, there's a lot going on for him. Schools good though happy there

You sound run down happier, I always found antibiotics knackered me - used to invest in some actimel when I'd be on them. I believe there's a sore throat thing doing the rounds. I hope you're able to speak up in work and get a bit of the pressure off. I left my last job because of that, they just ignored the pressure I was under & I thought I'd crack. I was lucky enough to have other choices, turned out a bit frying pan into fire but hey ho, I took my chances.
Stupid calories last night, cross at myself. I'm not going to weigh again until Monday or Tuesday, as I only officially record Fridays weight makes no difference.

My brother takes terra nova life supplement, it contains fungii which I'm sensitive to, couldn't get a sample anywhere so contacted them directly & they sent me an entire tub!! Took it thurs in juice it's rank, will see about making it into a smoothie, but my stick blenders broken & I'm hoping to sell pressure cooker & buy soup maker/smoothie marker with the money, missed out on the Aldi one, tried lots of Aldi's

I'm going to have to speak up again at work, my words are falling on deaf ears, short of walking out I'm at a loss as to how I'm going to make them listen

I haven't eaten well today and it's not going to be pretty, so I want is crisps

I haven't eaten well either and we're going to Pizza Hut tomorrow. Limited menu so no salads. Ah well back to it Monday.

Seems like there's a gang of us, I've had chinese I'll definitely be over but managed nearly 8,000 steps so that's something at least (grasping at straws!)

Thursday & Friday l was just awful
I have been fine again today but feel such a failure

Had blueberries, apple & clementines for lunch, no breakfast.
Bacon, toms & crispbreads onight , tea & coffee all day and just had a fibre one carrot cake bar.

Lunch wasn't good (cheese sandwich, crisps and a kitkat) so I had a really light dinner - a lovely salad with lots of herbs, lemon, nuts, vegetables, leaves etc. Now I am starving. Have brushed my teeth so no snacking but I wish I'd had a bigger tea!

Sounds like we've all been a bit challenged over the weekend, nothing new there for me for sure! My weekend starts on Thursday most weeks, so hats off if you just went a bit off Friday/Saturday. We can make better choices today, put everything else behind us.
I now have to what was planned for yesterday so as not to waste it. Mix mash of bits that'll work well as an outdoor lunch if the weather holds. Teen is haunting me about what we're going to do today, uggg, I take that to mean she'd like to go shopping. Uggg

Lost half a lb this week
Yesterday I ate a share bar of chocolate to myself, a small brownie, dessert out & drank a bottle of Pinot Grigio on top of my meals so we're all in the one boat

Well done on the loss happier! Next weekend will be better for me, ok that's unlikely but have to have good intentions at least. Going to aim to hit no more than 2,000 cals & I'll get up shortly and get a decent brisk walk in. Back to 1500-1600 cals Monday to Thursday, the weekend includes a child's birthday & babysitting so that'll help reduce the amount of Pinot G I imbibe so maybe I'll have more success. Sick of looking at my gutty middle

Afternoon everyone
Am feeling sick from scoffing Shortbread serves me right! l was doing great then a blip then back to it then a blip , am blipping today

Chips mushy peas cake ice cream biscuits and salted peanut. Hhmmmm. Not the best

Wedding definitely on, best get to it. 16100 steps though

Haven't quite managed all my steps today which is annoying because I have for the whole week up until now. I have had a very busy day doing DIY and gardening though so I haven't been lazing around!

Huge bloat today. That's it gonna be on track to end September

I've checked the damage and it's not good. Hopefully a lot is bloat. I'm not going that again. When will I learn it's just not worth it?

Similar story for me this morning, it's not going into my Fitbit app

Breakfast was slice of pineapple, one raspberry(rest of pack were mouldy) baby yogurt, oj, strawberries & life supplement think I'll root out protein powder & see if that'll mask the taste

Didn't bother ruining my day by standing on the scales - the guilt & shame from weekend gluttony is enough to bear. Very bloated too

No scales here. I’m at spa with dh. Bikini is on. Am not 100% happy with the way it looks but two babies lots of biscuits and I’m 80% happy. One day I’ll get my flat tummy back (before I’m 40). That’s not to say I’m unhappy. Two babies and lockdown biscuits and booze. I’m feeling confident enough to wear bikini so that’s a start.

#justbloodywearit

Having quinoa salad for lunch. Am waiting for my massage and facial and am drinking plenty of cucumber water. I love spa cucumber water. Somehow it tastes so different to when I do it at home. Must be the aromatherapy oils in the air and the plunky plunky music.

Enjoy the day em
I went through my phone at the weekend and found ds had taken a photo of me on the loo where belly was definitely hanging out

108 days to end of year according to my sis
