I am having a shit-ola day of the highest magnitude.

  1. Spent all day trailing round shops trying to find something to wear for interview tomoorow with toddler.

  2. Have chipped a fucking great chunk off one of my teeth, the same one that has a crown and that I have root canal on recently, so chances are its shagged, and they will have to take it out... making me look like a guest on Jeremy Vile

  3. Parking ticket, as ds (3) turned the ticket over as he was climbing out of the car. 30 bastard quid

  4. Pulled over by rozzers on the way home as back brake light is out like how the fuck was i supposed --to know.

ARGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

Normally I would want tea and cake but actually I want wine and cig, if it wasnt for the fact that I had to drive to dentist in an hour would be indulging in both.

mrsjuan · 24/03/2010 15:34

That is one shite day.

Can only help number 4 but if you've kept parking ticket you can send it to them as proof that you did have one.

dinkystinky · 24/03/2010 15:52

Geordiemix - that is one hell of a day! Definitely appeal the parking ticket! Have your cig - is calorie free - and hope the anaesthetics from the dentist give you a nice buzzy feeling...

BO - I've lost just under 10lbs since start of January (when my official lost the lard attempt began) and people have only just started noticing. 6lbs is great - keep it up!

Have had my daytime quota of food have planned and brought with me for today to stop me going off plan- and snuck in a bodypump class at lunchtime- but am still hungry and having to mainline peppermint tea to stop myself from trying to find something else to eat...

MamaGoblin · 24/03/2010 15:52

Geordie - bloody hell, that's a lot of crap for one day. Agree re. sending parking ticket off. Did the police fine you?

Hope tooth is as ok as can be expected, and that your interview goes well tomorrow.

geordieminx · 24/03/2010 15:57

No, thankfully no fine from police... think I would have sobbed uncontollably if they had

largeginandtonic · 24/03/2010 16:01

Geordie there are no words for a day like that! Have wine but be good with the rest.

It will make you feel worse tomorrow.

I am hungry. Hate this time of day.

MmeLindt · 24/03/2010 16:07

Georgie
What a shit day. Hope your appeal works. Send a photo of the offending child looking angelic to soften them up. Or send child.

I find encouraging the DC to smother everything with ketchup is a great way for me to avoid eating leftovers.

Just went on a run with a PE teacher friend. She is better than a personal trainer, really fired me on. Ran much further than I normally would. Feeling chuffed.

Even more chuffed when I found a Godiva choc in my handbag. Friend gave it to me last week and I forgot about it. Have just eaten it with a lovely cappucino. My treat for today.

Shopping next. What can I make for dinner?

gherkinwithapurplemerkin · 24/03/2010 16:09

I feel confident I will not be shouted at today - god it was scary yest, like Miss Trunchbull in Matilda (Bakewell wasn't processed BTW, was handmade by artisans in Cheshire)

Today:-
item: Back MUCH better, have been to work and everything
item: Gorge Fly London wedges (red!) have arrived, q foxy yet comfortable with skinny jeans
item: dry Special K w/raisins; delish waitrose caesar salad (398cals) and a corn thin, apple. Omelette later.

Back hamster have scurried off. Have a pair of back dormice at the mo (i.e. smaller and cuter than hamsters but hoping thet'll clear off soon.

gherkinwithapurplemerkin · 24/03/2010 16:11

Oh poor you Geordie. That is un Jour Merde.
Hope tooth gets good prognosis

SuSylvester · 24/03/2010 16:27

hi everyone

Rules? Mmm Not really just a sort of common thread.

  1. Everyone is trying different things - but you need to stick to your plan. PLAN EVERY DAYS MEALS OR SNACKS
  1. No excuses, no sympathy. DOES IT MAKE ME HAPPY? IS KEY WORD
  1. If you don't you get your arse royally kicked by Sue. Unless your transgression is funny.( NODDY!)
  1. Some people are weighing in and some aren't. I THINK FRIDAY NEEDS TO BE THE DAY WE ALL POST TOTAL LOSS. SOMEOEN CAN ADD IT ALL UP. PLEASE WEIGH AND POST LOSS SO FAR
  1. Got to wake to shake every morning.

ouch, poor you Geordie. Hope dentist goes ok.

I've been good thus far today - a fistful of dry cheerios for breakfast, half a tin of Heinz lentil soup for lunch, and c'est tout! Dinner will be salad with maybe a leedle bit of mozzarella, and then that's it.

I'm now firmly in the zone, I'm not even hungry at the moment and I wouldn't have physically been able to last on what I've eaten today about a month ago. Jeans don't feel looser yet, which is my only gauge while I'm without scales, but hopefully that's not far off.

I might treat myself to a salmon fillet tomorrow night, all the recipes mentioned earlier sound delicious!

CheeeseOnToast · 24/03/2010 16:39
