Before After

I'M LOSING MY FOCUS ....

WW =

My exercise is down

I haven't had a run since I hurt my back

I am not weighing or writing down my food intake

It doesn't help that I now weigh the lowest I have ever weighed as an adult, it seems to have turned a switch in my head as if I don't need to be so careful anymore 

But thats not the case is it ?  I don't want to put the weight back on, so I must find a happy medium ....

WI tonight, I expect a gain due to the above, but so long as I keep going to my WI's and so long as I eat wisely hopefully I won't go backwards.

ANNIVERSARY =

Thank you all for your anniversary wishes.  The evening before our anniversary DH took me to a lovely restaurant in London, very posh, but gorgeous.  It was lovely getting dressed up again.

Unfortunately we share our anniversary with my MILs birthday, unfortunate because she died 2 years ago, which makes it a difficult day for DH. However it was made more difficult by the fact we found out on Friday that my FIL is getting married again.  So with that on his mind my DH was on a real downer, and was not a happy person to be around.

I spent my anniversary doing housework and sitting on my own watching tv, whilst he went to the cemetry and then went for 'a drive' on his own in the lovely sunshine  He didn't want to eat, he didn't want to drink, he didn't want to talk, so when he got a call from his  mates asking if he was going to the pub to watch the football I was quite happy for him to go.

Not the nicest of things for your DH to do on your anniversary, kick off was 4pm, the exact time we got married, but as I say, he created an awful atmosphere when he was home, so it was more comfortable with him out - unfortunately 

I did hint to Shelley that I had a secret, well it may not be happening now (Oh dear, no wonder I am so down at the moment, this post isn't a happy one is it !)  As I say my FIL is getting married, in Las Vegas on 06.06.08 and when we first found out my DH said we would go out there to surprise him, which I know his FIL would absolutely love.  It was a secret as we didn't want any of our family to let the cat out of the bag and tell FIL by accident, but now it doesn't look like we will be going.  DHs brother has 2 little boys and he can't get a baby-sitter, which means none of us will be going to LV I guess.

Oh well, I can't complain I have had a lovely year so far, but I know it would mean so much to my FIL x

Anyway, I now need to get ready for work, I haven't had a chance to see how you guys are doing, I am sorry, I will call on your all after my WI

Have a nice day, take care

OH Hun....

Sorry its all a bit Pete Tong for you at the moment will e-mail later.

Meanwhile HOW MUCH WEIGHT SO FAR?   exactly!

((hugs))

Could you maybe think in terms of doing one day on plan and seeing how you find it?

I certainly don't think you should beat yourself up about the exercise...sure, try to find something you can do, and make sure it isn't an excuse now, but it is normal to find it hard to get back into it after an injury.

Ok...now something you might think is selfish but I don't...can just you and DH go to Las Vegas? If it would mean a lot to your FIL...

Just imagine how good

It would be to reach goal!

You can do it for the few weeks that would take, can't you??

Good luck at WI

You can get your focus back!  I lost track for two weeks but here I am, on track everyday again. 

I think as long as you go to WI's regularly you wont necessarily gain the weight back because you will see changes as they are happening instead of being suprised when all the sudden nothing fits (atleast thats what happened to me when I stopped getting on the scale)  But even still, just a few weeks of being really committed and you could be at goal!  I know you can do it.

Im sorry your anniversary didnt turn out so pleasant    That has to be a hard situation...trying to be understanding of why he's not in a good mood but also wanting to have a nice anniversary together.  I hope things look up soon.  Maybe vegas would be a nice get-a-way for you two.

I'm sorry

I'm sorry you're feeling rather blue. Sometimes just getting it off your chest is really helpful! It makes you see the good things, too.

Can you maybe go to Vegas without DH's brother? That would be so much fun to go again sooner than you expected.

I hope you feel better soon! Take good care of yourself and I hope that weigh in goes well. But more importantly, I hope your mood lifts soon!

Heya....
