Here we go again...<br />
<br />
i have just weighed myself and I'm at my heaviest in a long time.. 10stone 9lbs... now that's not good.. i did have a pre-diet blow out at the weekend and ate and drank enough for a family of 6..lol anyway.. today is DDay - the start of my diet - i am going to follow a calorie controlled diet and reduce my calories to about 1200 calories a day.. I did fthis before following a Tesco diet and lost a stone in weight so i am going to aim for a stone for starters and see how that goes.. the first week i'm expecting to lose at least 4-5lbs.. oh and Today alan and i are going for a run... we are not going to mess about we are starting with a 9 miler.. it may mean lots of walking but even that will be better than nothing.. so off in a bit and feeling positive..<br />
<br />
Sun is shining, a bit chilly but we can handle that..<br />
<br />

<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: large;">so today, so far i have been a right lazy bones, i got up at 09.15, had tea and toast, followed by a long soak in the bath (after lots of internet browsing) at 11.45.. it's now 13.04 i'm dressed and hair done.. but have not done a thing in the house oh other than put the washing on.. The kitchen is a mess, as is the rest of the house so i guess i will start in the kitchen.. </span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: large;">This afternoon i have to go shopping, i don't mind it to much as Alan helps out.. At the moment Alan is at the Marina hotel photographing the opening of the Spa..I am desperate for him to come home soon as he has been offered an amazing opportunity by the hotels directors and i need to hear all about it.. i'm feeling really quite excited.. I know it's photographing 11 of their old peoples homes for brochures but i need to hear more.. xx</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: large;">Monday is going to be diet day again!! I have planned my meals and need to concentrate on getting nice and slim.. I have a couple of weddings coming up in the summer and i want to be slim and fit.. Running has gone out of the window for the last 4 - 5 weeks so i need to start that on Monday too. So Monday is the day (Alan will laugh because i always start diets and things on a Monday) My goal is to loose 1.7 stone and start running as if i'm going to be running a marathon.. watch this space..!!!</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: large;">Hannah is having a hard time trying to decide what to study at Uni.. she did decide on Nursing but now she is unsure what to do.. I never went to Uni, I am not the brightest spark and i really don't know what to suggest to her other, i can only support her decisions... For now though, she has decided not to go to Uni this year but to take take out and think about what she wants to do.. good move me thinks!!</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: large;">Right all those jobs i've been putting off i really need to start now..</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: large;">here's to the weekend</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></span>

I love it when the sun shines.. :-)<br /><br />I have not been blogging recently, it's not that i have forgotten, i'ts more that i could not be bothered... I have been tooooo toooo busy... :-( I am still on a diet..well ok, not so much a diet but more healthy eating than anything, i have cut out the daily bag of crips, the biscuits and all the other rubbish... My food portions are more controlled and hubby and me are running plenty.. 5 miles 3 times a week along with walks with the dogs at the weekend.... So whilst i'm not losing shed loads of weight, i'm not too bothered about it. To be honest, i've not got a lot to lose, if i had I don't know, say 3 stone, i'd be losing 3 or so pounds a week.. I could do with losing 1/2 maybe but that extra 7lbs is my choice, it's not as if i need to lose it, i've lost the christmas pounds i gained so that suits me just fine.. Besides with running, i'm probably staying the same weight as it's muscle i'm building, so muscle weighs more than fat....doesn't it?? My weight is the same as the last two weigh in's so no point broadcasting it...Hazelhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15549668791875332486noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6832626957761971730.post-4152731206370071212011-03-30T02:45:00.000-07:002011-03-30T02:50:50.755-07:00weigh dayOk so i have not blogged for a couple of days...blogging food plans does get a little boring.. The diet is still on track, mainly stuck to it apart from having a few glasses of wine, but hey you gotta live eh!!<br /><br />So today is weigh in day..<br /><br />It's the same as it has been for the last two weeks.. So i'm not jumping through hoops and maybe feel a little dissapointed.. But I guess everyone reaches a plateau at some point in their diets.. <br /><br />I am going to do a food plan but not today, have not got enough time....I will catch up soon...Hazelhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15549668791875332486noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6832626957761971730.post-8893728961686179832011-03-26T05:24:00.000-07:002011-03-26T06:45:56.380-07:00its the weekend<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-CxcKjp7zKW4/TY3p3dNwojI/AAAAAAAABm8/ghyyEmssB0I/s1600/pineapple.jpg"><img style="float: left; margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 221px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-CxcKjp7zKW4/TY3p3dNwojI/AAAAAAAABm8/ghyyEmssB0I/s320/pineapple.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5588379851581071922" border="0" /></a><br />o<span style="font-family:arial;">k this is the third time of trying to add an entry to my blog...Our PC appears to be playing up.

We took the dogs (2 black labs) for a two mile walk. Marley (who is normally naughty) was so well behaved he just stayed at our sides throughout, Bob on the other hand, did his own thing. I think he thought he was working... you see he used to be a sniffer dog, he worked for 4 1/2 years sniffing out bombs and stuff, he now lives with us..<br /><br />Ermmm the reason for the primrose picture is quite simple - I Like Them and have them in my garden. I remember as a child that could see hundreds of primroses in the woods, not so much now though and that's quite sad :-( I remember as a 8-9 year old, going to local woods with friends and picking bunches of primroses and trying to sell them to old people... I don't think we had many buyers to be honest...

This involved lots of little ones all under the age of 4 having their pictures taken, what a great morning it was too.. I loved helping out, trying to get the little ones to smile was hard work.. Lots of silly noises, games and puppet adventures seemed to do the job. I just wish i could post a couple of pictures on here but i can't :-(</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:arial;">This afternoon we popped to Westwood Cross, we were on a mission to find a blouse in Debenhams which i had seen in Folkestone but they did not have my size.. Anyway i was chuffed to bits to find that they had one left in my size...even more chuffed as i had vouchers to spend, so nice new blouse cost me £2..
