Hhhappynewyear Hic.

Yessssssssssssssssssssssss! 1.5 lbs off today so that is 3 of the 3.5 I gained at Christmas.
I had a cream doghnut at work. A colleague bought it for me as a new year gift!! By 5 pm I had had 12 points. I then went to mother-in-law and had sherry, wine and snacks followed by turkish delight. No idea how many points. I shall have a drink or two tonight and a Chinese meal with family tomorrow. Tomorrow is 2009 and I shall start as I mean to go on so shall note all points and try to be good.
I shall weigh in tomorrow and Friday.
HAPPY NEW YEAR....HIC - HICCUP...ZZZzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz. xxx.

6 Chocolates!! But 1.8 lbs Off.

There are two little mince pies sitting on a plate shouting 'eat me, eat me all up with some cream'. I have managed to ignore them but it has been hard. I am babysitting tonight so shall be out of danger. I lost 1.8 lbs today so that is probably all the retained fluid away. I have hogmanay and a party on Saturday to contend with so am happy about the promise to weigh every day.

Well Done 'Losing It'. xxx.

I put on 3 ½ pounds. I am pleased with this as I think I shall loose it quite quickly. It is so hard getting back into the’ Zone’. To help me get there I am going to weigh myself every day this week and report it. My friend Louise always says ‘if you keep within your points for two days you are there’.
Today has been a struggle.

Losing It has done so well that I am both inspired and sick with envy. (If she can bloody do it I can)!

Gawd! Hello Paul! Don't be too Critical!

Well I’m back and am afraid I haven’t fared well! 3 ½ days have been lost to an orgy of food and drink. I have been a bit more careful however and not eaten as much as I could have (or normally do at Christmastime) Today I feel crap. I could have a cold on the way. My fingers feel tight (drink) and I have no energy. I want to eat but am trying to get back into the zone. I have already had toast with butter and marmalade x 2!! 6 points? I’m going to take the dogs out for a nice long walk which should help. Now the question is…..should I weigh myself tomorrow or wait till next week? If I get on the scales tomorrow and find I have gained a stone I’ll be devastated and it might throw me right out of the zone. Oh I lost 1.8 lbs last Monday.
Am off now to see what shenanigans 'Losing It' has been up to!

I don’t think I shall be able to get back to daily blogging until after Christmas. I weighed myself this morning and found that I had lost 3lbs, I was thrilled to bits.

Lovely Losing it is Despondent. Keep Her Going You Lot.

I lost 3lbs this week! I can’t believe it! Mind you I didn’t have too much yesterday and I did go to the park with my granddaughter Lucy who made me run, jump, go down a slide (a bit frosty and I got icy pants but luckily did not get stuck! If I had laughed just a little bit more I might have!!) And pretended to climb trees. She is a free sprit and a pleasure to take out….umm and it helps me to exercise.

3 glasses water….I know, I know! Not getting my 5 a day either.
