Katybumpers - Lose a stone in 6 weeks!

[MrsSeanSlater]

Welcome to the new thread!

9lbs for me but we haven't given up yet!

whilst i signed on in hope, reality set in quickly and i opted for the slow but steady approach...have lost 6lb so far

webbs is a big garden centre with a toy section and a hobbycraft and a nice cafe bit susie

katy...any night is good for me....

we have a had a right laugh along the way though
how about thursday?

yes, santaslittleb...i was thinking that after i'd posted...i'd never have done a naked nork swin if not for this thread!

ps thurs good for me...i will bring the bar...yes the whole thing, i'm sure i can get one on ebay

Susie - ouch! I hope you have slept ok. DP would advocate something a little stronger than Baileys (a good single malt!) but depends how you feel about BFing of course. Hope you got some relief anyway. There's a couple more small slugs of Bailey's left - I shall bring it to the party tomorrow!

Katy - will do running today too, good idea. What shall I do with dd, I wonder. Hmmm. I shall not take offence at being called a pain I have been called much worse! Glad you are all well... are you getting some sleep and everything?!

Polly - confused about what I want them/ anyone to do (make it all stop!!! sometimes I wish I was an untrained patient) and not very reassured by the "it's very understandable" line. But confused because it's not like I actually want to go in/ start antipsychotics/ anything else drastic-sounding. So I am off to the middle of nowhere in Scotland at the weekend still regularly, terrifyingly, hallucinating
Sorry, far too much detail. And abusing your position too. I hope you are well dosed up and feel better soon (another situation for which DP is very evangelical about the benefits of whisky!)

i put dd in the laundry basket at the bottom off the stairs and she laughed her head off as i tear arsed up and down

if you bring the bar i'll supply the hunky barstaff wearing nothing but loin cloths

dd slept from 10.30pm until 6am ! long may it continue xx

hope you are all well

just found out my uncle died in the night

littlebumper - I'm so sorry to hear that. Were you close to him? Had you been expecting it? Cliched as it is - it really is tougher to lose someone at Christmas. I hope you are not by yourself all day today.

not close to him,he was my mums brother but we didn't really see him.my other uncle died 2 years ago and his parter this year.all to cancer.he was only diagnosed 10 days ago.it's my mum i feel for

Oh katy, sorry for your family loss. i know what you mean about your mum... my mum has 4 brothers, all older than her, I dread the day we lose any one of them. she is close to all of them. So am I really. Horrible time of year too, as it will always remind her of it. I'll send some comforting vibes and a cuddle her way.

MLP: the worst thing about being trained is when we have to be patients... you have to somehow, let yourself BE a patient, and listen to what they have to say and what they want to do for you... really difficult I know, and I am the worst at it myself, but so important. We are not objective enough when it comes to our own health, so someone elses opinion and views are really so important... I do hope the New Year brings a bit more hope for you, less symptoms, and maybe some treament that yo will feel happy and confident about.

I think the party should be tomorrow night! I'll bring some chocolate!! if there is any left

katy also, birlliant news on your LO sleeping better.. mine woke last night at half 3am, but, 3 out of 4 nights sleeping all through can't be bad... i'm hoping for another whole night tonight, as I'm so tired i reckon i wont be waking to go and check on her ever 2hours!

SO, for me, new year will be a new start on my diet. I am giving myself the new goal of a stone by easter!!! feel free to join in with me, though some of you may be onto your 2 stone by then... maybe, just maybe, i'll be part the wat to it too!

xxxxx

lovely ladies, keep it all going.

I have to say...

I am going out for the first time with my girly friends since dd... in a pair of size 10 trousers!!!! They even do up (though I have to confess they are snug). Should have seen the look on DP's face... I am dressed like a proper person!!

Thank you - all - couldn't have got this far without you all

Sorry for the bad news and i'm happy for all the good news. Keep posting, girls. It's so good to have so many of you sharing what happens in your lives. I've decided to try to have a lot of different things so that I don't get stack with large quantities of healthy stuff which effectively makes my stomack bigger. I'll see what happens and hopefully will loose some weight, perhaps after Christmas.
breakfast - poridge
lunch - tesco chabatta with mozarella, chicken and mushrooms, cup of unsweetened tea with milk
2:30 - tea with jam, dried cherries and fresh grapes
dinner - moroccan style pork chops (put my recipy on a recent pork chop thread)with potato and peas cakes and baked beans; coffee with 2 sugars and unsalted nuts. Well, not the best diet in the world but managed to avoid those chockies calling me from every corner.

WELL DONE MYLITTLEPUDDING!!!! you slinky fox go shake your thang girl

WOW Mylittlepudding!!! have a fantastic time, and dont let them lose you, being so slinky slim and all

I'm SO pleased for you! oh for it to be me though...

i'm having a large glass of red.anybody want one?

evening all!
have managed to get a fully stocked bar off ebay....postage was a bit steep but it did come with a dancefloor with a big mirror ball and lights so bring your fave music! Are we allowed to bring fantasy partners?

katy...sorry for your mum...it really is awful losing people at christmas...

mylittlepud...ra ra ra on the slinky malink trousers! Hope you enjoy your night BTW i haven't got a position to abuse, i'm retired i've hardly prescribed in years,do you not want to take an antipsychotic because of breastfeeding, if so is there anything safe now? ....it's awful having to put up with hallucinations and frightening.....is the scotland trip with dp (and his malt) and will that feel helpful? I'm with susie and you on it being difficult to let yourself be treated like any other patient but sometimes i think i've needed that...when i've been really unwell i've hated that "what do you think we should do?" moment and have always wanted someone to say x is the best thing at the mo' and get on with it....

here come the girls...........going to put on my party clothes tomorrow,need some cheering up

forgot my food list...went round macro today...they had samples of everything out...limited myself to baileys creme caramel and ordinarybaileys (for comparative purposes only) and a mr kipling christmas pudding cake

I am just having a mug of horlicks and a snickers!!! It has been whimpering all day, to me, from the kitchen pleading with me to eat it. I should have just gone to bed at 10 o'clock, then it would not be heading towards my mouth now

ok,i'm pissed off!! so have eaten 5 quality street for my breakfast
i'm looking after my nephew this afternoon so that should work them off.sorry for swearing x

I see no swear words there Katy

I dont feel SO guilty abut the snickers now! well, maybe just a bit.
