Already had a blow out ....

Already logged out. Didn't get my walk today as I attempted to but was slipping everywhere on blackness.  Had to turn back. 
Did have many visitors so I ate 3 slices of fruit cake. I had had a fried egg toast sandwich at 1030 as I was starving. Then husband made us stuffed pasta and put a whole bag if garlic bread on as we have no room I  fridge. I then had a mince pie and brandy cream. Then to top it all off I ate a whole big bar of chocolate. I weighed myself tonight feeling heavy and bloated and was 13.3. Aaaah if I hadn't had that pig out I probably could of been under 13 by xmas in Sunday. Think I will draw a line under it. The goal is to get under by new year anyway.

(76-10) 66sp

(81-11) 70sp actually had more

I went to garden centre for lunch to meet nct girls after health visitor left. Baby was 12 2! He is  58cm.
Had tuna melt wrap with no crisps. 

After dinner I polished off all the truffles pictured but I've only counted it as 24sp. I reckon it was a lot more. I'm not really caring tbh. Could of been worse.

(80-16) 64sp walked 7 miles

Walked more than planned as I left my credit card in aldi.
Was doing so well until I went into the fridge and scoffed 4 truffles which I'm counting as 12sp. The Hot Choc was tgat instant stuff.

5 week challenge 13.3 (3/4) (58-7) 51sp

Ok the last fresh start didn't go to plan. However in 5 weeks we have friends visiting and I really don't want to feel rubbish for the next year. The weight loss has stopped as the only thing making it go steadily down was breast feeding and walking however I am gorging on chocolate every night. Have a really sweet tooth just now. Think I am going to have to buy popcorn to snack on at night. It's pretty low cal and fat. It's also got fibre. I am also going to use ww . I am allowed 52sp a day ( technically 58 when you include the 42 weeklies) . I am also going to use my fit bit to earn activity points which can go towards food once yiu have earned 3 in a day.

I was 13.3 (3/4) this morning.  I think I'm a bit bloated. Didn't go to toilet yesterday as night before I hurt myself going and was worried it had something to do with episiotomy. I was down to 13.0. So shoukd get down to that quickly. Two weeks until new years day. It would be nice to be into the 12s by then.

Feeling really motivated to do this today. Had breakfast bar and a banana while feeding baby. Lunch was a tuna mayo wrap. Walked to tesco with husband , baby and dog to pick things up for dinner. I had a persimmon and 2 kiwis gor a snack. Had a huge baked potato, beans and cheese. Later tonight I had a decaf coffee and half a bar of fudge minis.

Fresh start 13.0

Was 13.0 (3/4) this morning.  Think I might loosely follow ww not sure. The aim is to be under 12.6 for my birthday. Then I only have to lose half a stone to get in the 11s.

Screw this let's end the year well

I'm sitting here having had 2 toffee tarts and a packet of giant buttons too much. Feeling really uncomfortable and getting angry at having to wear a bra to bed. Time to get a grip I think. I was 13.3 tonight before I ate the second tart. Time to eat better and I really mean it. Can have a healthy 12 days until xmas. Then try and get under 12 10 for new year.

Friday 9th

5 weeks post partum 13.2

Not got much time to make myself food never mind take photos. However I would love to be under 13 stone for Christmas. I feel that I need to up my fruit and veg aswell. Also not have so many sweet things at night. Just going to try and take photos for 2 weeks.

4 week post partum 13.3

Was 13.3 this morning. Got a lot of sleep last night. 12-6 then 7.30 to 10.30. Walked to homebase and garden centre tee then tesco with my mum. Bought some light up sticks and a mini xmas tree.

Really tired

My mum cleaned my kitchen this morning . Woman u used to do car share with popped in to see baby then walked to tesco with pram . Made stovies for dinner.  Picture blurred as holding  a crying baby .

Another long walk

Got up and fed baby with tea and breakfast bar while my mum cleaned our wee  toilet after the leak was repaired on Sunday.  Also cleaned our hall and did a ton of washing. Once ready we had a cheese salad sandwich then walked down to tesco and marks for groceries. When we got home I gad a nice chunk of m and s xmas cake slice.  Mum made us paella for dinner. gD another slice of cake later.

Longest walk for months

Husband went back to work  today. Fear not my mum was due to arrive at 3.30. Baby went back to sleep until 11 ish so I did too. Walked down to train station to meet my mum. Picked up stuff for dinner from Marks on the way. Walked back home. Mum made chilli while I ate my lunch at 4. Had chilli for dinner followed by lemon tart.

Not bad really.

Couldn't be bothered with sp today. Well I could but I had hit 59sp after my 4 slices of pizza.  I then counted the calories I had eaten today and it was way under 1800 which I need to eat fir milk supply so I had 4 profiteroles and cream.

Fresh start 50sp

I have started a fresh today. Especially since I attempted to try on my pre pregnancy jeans. Obviously none of the size 12 fit but I had 2 pairs if size 14 which are too small.
We went into mothercare today to buy a baby carrier. Also picked up some Christmas clothes for the wee one. Next is next to mothercare so I picked up a pair of size 16 jeans. They can do me for now.
I has porridge for breakfast.
Grabbed lunch before we left. cheese and pesto bagel. Dinner was provided by the inlaws. A mish mash from m and s. I had two southern fried chicken pieces, Potato rosti, coleslaw and salad. When they left at 10pm I had skinny popcorn and tea.

Disgusted

In laws were here and I over indulged. God knows the smart points. Thinking I should make weigh days Thursdays as that's the day I had baby boy. It also gives me just under a week to sort myself out.

Thurs husband cooked 73sp

Husband made steak woth black pudding amd dauphoinause potatoes. Very high in points however it was out of my control. Husband spent a lot of time making it. Just as he was plating up the baby who had been sleeping for the last hour started crying. I had to wolf down my dinner.
I actually had two oranges even though only one is pictured.
I polished off some scooshy cream.whichnos not pictured oops.

Had such an upset stomach tonight. Was convinced I had a stomach bug. I'm. Actually writing this the next day so can safely say I was not sick. Thinking my diarrhoea was down to the Chinese the night before as we tried a new place or the two oranges.

62sp

Cleaned upstairs this afternoon. Felt good and it earned me some sp. We had a chinese for dinner. I've counted it as 30sp. bathed the bambino tonight and  did some skin to skin.  Was still hungry so had a plum amd a pear.

Back to ww (13.4) 54sp

I am going to follow weight watchers again. I am allowed 52sp a day an 42 extra sp a week because I am breast feeding. That's 58sp on average a day.
I tried on my next size 12 jeans that I lived in before I was pregnant and was around 11 and half stone.  I can't even get them over my legs!

Sunday

Parents came to visit

Hungry

2 desserts!

We or should I say husband made a sort of katsu curry thing at my request. seen someone make something similar on insta gram.  It was just a breaded chicken on rice woth katsu curry on top. Made a carrot aoy amd honey side . 

2 weeks post partum (13.6)

Well I gave birth to a baby boy exactly 2 weeks ago on the Third of November. I have lost a stone since my due date. I could of lost more but have been eating rubbish all week cakes, bicuits etc. I M breast feeding do hopefully that will help shed the weight.

Best moment this week: hmm Mmmmm

Miss anything? The ability to walk more than a mile

Movement: feel movement all of the time. The past couple of weeks I have had to sometimes move onto my big ball to sit just to give baby some extra room to move and give me some comfort.

Anything making you queasy or sick: I'm fed up woth chocolate. However still earing it!

Labor signs: well.... last night I woke up at 2 am with really strong period pain which felt like ot was coming from my back and my stomach was tight. Then it happened 20 minutes later. Then it started happening every  10 minutes. I thought I was in the early stages of labour. So I read my book and started timing the contractions. Every 9 minutes I would get a 40 sec contraction. Then between 330 and 4 it took 20 minutes. I then fell asleep..so it all stopped after about an hour and a half. So weird. I now think I know the kind of pain a contraction will feel like.

Symptoms: feeling pressure in my pelvis. The false labour last night. Spots on my bum. Seem to have a a big lump/in grown hair on my personal area which I am trying to get rid of with savlon.

Belly button in or out? Still in

They just hooked me up to ctg for half an hour. Everything is fine however by the time a doctor sees me.etc we didn't leave until 2am.
