OOOooooppps
So… this week I’ve slipped a wee bit…. eh….. just not watching what I was eating. Doing slimfast, but having toast with my meal bar at lunch and my main meal was definately adding up to 600cal which is a bit much for late at night.
So I gave myself a kick in the bum this morning as I stood on the scale and took a sneaky peak (I’m where I was last week). I’ve written down all that I will eat today and worked out the calories. Then just to give myself a bit of a pick-me-up, I’ll have another sneaky peak at the scales tomorrow morning to see what a day of staying on track does to the number.
But I’m not discouraged. I’m actually pretty happy at the minute. My weight counter says 9lbs lost which is the most I’ve lost at one time EVER!!! Normally I lose, and then gain, and lose and then gain over and over and over again. This time, I’m more than ready to kick my own ass (I’ve been working on the old flexibility) if I mess things up. I’ve got a strong enough kick too…. The plan now is - finish this week with slimfast. Then do 2 weeks of weightwatchers points and then 2 weeks of weightwatchers core and then repeat the cycle. Might help with the boredom, which is starting to creep in.
Anyhew…. enough nonsence. Went to see the new Indiana Jones film last night with himself. He got popcorn and a fizzy drink. Everyone in the cinema was eating popcorn or nachos VERY loudly (I hate it when people eat with their mouth open and you can hear them crunch food…. really really hate it). I sat there with empty hands and a tummy saying it wanted popcorn. But I resisted. I didnt even take some of my boyfriends, eventhough he kepĀ his bag on his lap, with the opening facing me so I could smell it… ! The film wasnt great to be honest. I got the impression that Stephen Spielberg decided to make another one just for the heck of it, and he likes aliens and like Shila LeBoeuf (who was brilliant in it, as per usual). Yeah, I wouldnt hold my breath for a 5th one…..
Today at work is BOOORRRRING. Such a change from the last few days. Oh, and I did win the battle with the photocopier in the end. I ended up having to manually feed in 780pages to the scanner…. it took an hour and half….. say no more. On a plus note, I get to finish at 4:30pm today instead of 5:30pm (going to an info evening at the college I’m starting in at September) AND my half day on Friday has been approved because I’ve worked up 4 extra hours. AAAAND this weekend is a long weekend in Ireland!!!! Oh que la vie est belle!
Tag rugby is starting up in work on Thursday. 6:15pm to 7:15pm after work. Should be good craic. I’ve never played rugby before. With tag, it’s all about speed, so the lads say. Oh and if a guy gets a try, the team gets 1 point. But if a girl gets a try, the team gets 3 points! I’ve been told that I’m the main gal in the team because I run…. eh…. none of them have ever seen me run….. sure, I’ll give it a go anyway.

That’s great! Couldn’t reply to blogs yesterday for some reason, but was hoping you won your battle with the copier! I bet you’ll have a blast with the rugby. Have a great weekend.
Sounds awesome. You’ve got a plan and that’s the first step. I so want to visit Ireland, it’s always been a dream of mine. Someday I hope it comes true for me. Keep up the good work.
When everyone is eating popcorn and having a drink at the movies try bringing raw almonds and a bottle of water. You won’t feel so left out if you are munching on something too. I do it all the time
You can do it!
