Naughty Giggles....its been so long

well I can't believe I haven't blogged for so long!!!

Its been a weird month. I have a month of staying the same or mini gains despite eating properly and exercising, but I have decided its just a plateau and tried to ignore the numbers and concentrate on feeling better and healthier.

I am always ho[peful taht the scales will catch up but I am focussing on NSV's ie people telling me I look like I have lost loads, and being able to complete workouts without dying through lack of oxygen (I still go beetroot red and sweat excessively but then again I am still almost 16stone.) I am managing to congratulate myself on how far I have come and still setting realistic mini goals so all in all its been OK.

Last night I was having difficulty sleeping and was reminiscing with the help of BBC4 on my fave pop icons all still going strong. Hence the pic of Suggs up top and hopefully Bon Jovi down the bottom. I can't help think about how much I missed out on because of my size. I think it affected me more when I was a teenager than it does now. I never had much confidence when going out anywher, and I still love being out and about but have the major panic with clothes and what to wear and have to force myself out sometimes.

I had a major challenge this week I had a 5 day course with 15 people I did not know . The course was full of up close and personal de-escalation techniques and is my idea of a nightmare but I found myself enjoying it and getting less panicky than I have previously (I have to do the course every year or so)

So all in all things are going good...slowly but good.....

Oh dear its not going to let me add JBJ :(

MMMMMMMM Team JAKE :o)

This morning went to Aqua fit with my friend from ww. It was great fun but turned out to be aqua yoga (which I had never done before) not as energetic but lots of stretching and some tricky moves and of course lots of laughter.

Went for lunch afterwards and I was good having a bacon and mushroom and red pepper salad :o) so well within points there...then it was a quick dash to meet another friend at the cinema to see Eclipse :o). I had a bottle of water and a handful of counters but managed NOT to eat a huge bagful.....pointed and written down and so well on track.


Really enjoyed Eclipse.....nothing better than a a movie full of teenage angst, love, oh yes and lots of lovely men :o). I am definately a Werewolf girl :o)
