ok INCREDIBLY sorry, not had time to look at thread, so apologies for no personals... just wanted to say, have weighed and lost 4 lbs!!!!

Am in slight hurry as we are going up to newcastle to be with DH this weekend. He has to work saturday night, so enough was enough. I told him i'd had enough. I've asked if we could go up there every week for the last 3 now, and he's said there's no point as he's working odd hours all the time incl days and nights. Which doesnt bother me, even if we see him for an hour day and are under same roof for some of bedtime...

Anyway he called this evening to say he's got to work saturday night again so he can't come home, but would be taking wed-mon off of the following week. I just said, really coldly, and calmly ( which shocked me a lot) that we are no longer really having a relationship are we. He cried, ( unusual and ) and said immediately please book the first train you can tomorrow, doesnt matter how much it costs, or fly if you'd prefer.

So, I booked the train. we can't afford the plane, but would have been quicker. I just can't justify it, when the train is prob easier and so much cheaper at short notice. ( still bloody expensive though (£99 )

I"m really really excited. I was shocked at my lack of reaction to him saying he wasn't coming home. So i'm pleased that i feel excited to be seeing him. If that makes sense?

He told me he's been distant because it helps him cope with not being here as if he thinks about it too much, and lets himself get 'emotional' about it, it really hurts to be away from his girls and he can't cope with the hurt. Why can't I just switch off like a man can? makes perfect sense to him!

so will love you and leave you all ( with another epic post ) and see you early part of next week.

Take care, be good, keep up the good eating.

xxxx

Sorry, not read all since got back from our hols 2day. OMG SO need to lose a MASSIVE amount of weight to even have a healthy BMI. What do we all know about the Cambridge Diet plan? Any positive thoughts most welcome, Thank you! Looking to lose a few stone. Anyone else?

katylessbumpy · 25/01/2008 08:12

blanki i joined ww and have lost 9lbs in 3 weeks.i don't know about the cambridge diet .other people on here are doing different things and all being successful.i think whatever diet you choose it ha to fit in with your lifestyle that way you are less likely to fail

hiya susie,have a great time with dh xx

blanki - I have been following Rosemary Conleys Hip and Thigh diet and I have lost 7 pound in 3 weeks I got her book from sainsburys for £3.99 I think, it has got a diet to follow in the back along with very tasty recipes (even DH has been commenting on how nice the evening meals are now) and also exercises to do too

You are better off following something with healthy normal food rather than any faddy diets as you will stick to it for longer.

katylessbumpy · 25/01/2008 09:00

aaarrrgh dd just been sick again i've phoned nhs direct and they have advised a&e if she hasn't picked up by lunchtime fingers crossed she gets better quickly

hello all
katy i can't let paul m claim credit for my eating 1 crumpet as there was only 1 in the cupboard! still...

thinking of you mylittlepud...feel free to vent on here..

well done annie!

have no experience of the cambridge diet myself is it the very low cal one? am just trying for a slow sustainable weight loss by cutting back what i eat across the board, so eg still going for a curry but having smaller portions/sharing naan etc eg always using med sliced bread and very low fat spread instead of thick and flora, having a few crisps rather than a packet etc. it's working but it is slow compared to the likes of the lead pompom shakers katy and annie and all. i am toying with paul mckenna at the mo' to boost my willpower.

enjoy your weekend susie.

katylessbumpy · 25/01/2008 12:01

maybe paul hid the crumpets polly so you could toy with him instead

Sleep is the best medicine and Calpol also helps in the sleep department. Watch out for tomorrow though, she is going to be a bundle of energy if she has started to recover.
