I'm getting dizzy - round and round I go!


So we had a visitor​ to my office. Now this is not a forum for politics so I shall keep my opinions to my self but I will say that Mrs Sturgeon was a pleasant lady. This selfie was not supposed to see the light of day. I look absolutely atrocious! But I made the mistake of sending it to a pal. Next thing I know it's on Facebook! And that is one reason why I hate social media - but again this is not the forum for that either. Though it is my blog so technically I can say what I like, but I will keep it to my weight loss/gains adventures.

So I had a fabulous birthday weekend. I didn't think about my weight or my plan or healthy eating or slimming world. And it wasn't just on Saturday. Started early with a drink on Friday night. And ended on Sunday with an impromptu BBQ at my in laws. After all it was my birthday and you just go for it. Only happens once a year let's face it. As does Christmas, and valentine's and anniversaries and family birthdays and holidays (ok, several times a year lol) so you can see what I'm up against ha ha. Just one excuse after another. Oh bloody hell. I hate this. I so very much want to lose this weight - so why on earth can't I control my eating. It makes no sense at all.

My weight changes at slimming world differ to my Friday morning blog weigh ins. Obviously ones a Tuesday and ones a Friday. Ones in the morning and ones in the evening. Ones naked and ones clothed. Don't get me wrong the slimming club is the clothed weigh in, but I am so tempted to strip off! So far resisted... But watch this space. At my club is a gentleman who has special needs. This week he put on 2lbs and my goodness he didn't like it. He thumped his hands and stamped his feet and was very vocal that he didn't like it. I watched him and did so very agree with him. I didn't like putting ½lb on! And inside I was thumping and stamping. He was lucky being able to let it out. But I think most of us know how he felt. Losing weight is the utter pits and I don't like it.

But let's not dwell. This is another week. And only one week to my holidays. Since I have the ability to gain 1lb a day I think my post holiday weigh in will make this weeks gain look tiny 😂

Let the evening be gin!
