Nobody
rises to low expectations. Calvin Lloyd
Back to reality with a bang! It’s
5.20am and I’ve not long been up, didn’t manage to sleep on the flight home so
went about 36 hours without sleep, managed 2 hours yesterday lunchtime and
finally got to sleep around ten last night, hopefully I can get another early
night tonight and sort myself out.
I had an absolutely amazing holiday and for those that are interested
here are the links to the many photos!
(me very happy after getting my first glimpse of Central Park in the background)

So enough about the holiday, I’m back and it’s time to
get down to business, I’ve had a quick squeaky peak on the scales this morning
and it’s only looking like a one or two pound weight gain which I’m over the moon
about, I’ll officially way this morning at the meeting but as I said in my blog
yesterday (if you’re receiving this by email I have been blogging a little about
my holiday whilst away you can read it here - http://wwbevsworld.blogspot.com/ ) it appears I have finally changed my
behaviour around food. At one time if I'd gone to a buffet I would not have
been able to stop thinking about food, at that Sunday brunch and the
Thanksgiving meal I had no problem resisting and ignoring most of it. I've
finally lost the "I've paid for it" attitude and I think I've
improved my "I'm on my holiday" thought pattern. I didn't eat things
just because they were there and I didn't eat just because it was a meal time.
I was happy to sit with nothing when the girls had cake, I didn't do it because
I was thinking about my weight - I did it because I didn't actually want cake!
Let’s hope this new thought pattern continues ;D
I struggled to get anything done yesterday, hadn’t slept for 36 hours
so functioning wasn’t really high priority, all I ate all day was two slices of
toast for brekkie followed two tins of soup with four slices of bread and low
fat spread, I’m back on track from this morning 100%.
I’m still undecided whether to make today a Filling & Healthy (F&H)
day or ProPoint, and if I ProPoint not sure if I’ll try 26 or stick with 29 –
decisions, decisions. I’ve no doubt you’ve
all got lots of questions for me this week and I’ll do my best to answer them.
I was disappointed last night by a comment made on facebook about Cee
Lo Green and his appearance on the tv (we saw him at the parade in New York and
I’ve seen him interviewed many times, he’s a lovely man) and it annoyed me
because it proves that racism and sexism isn’t okay but fatism tends to get
overlooked! I won’t repeat the posting
but it had the words “fat Bxxxxxxx” in the sentence, if that posting had the
work black before the second word there would have been an uproar but because it
said ‘fat’ apparently it was implied as ‘criticism’ (their words not mine) I
see that as an ‘insult’ not ‘critism’!
We all know how difficult it is to lose weight, it isn’t just a cut and
dry process, and some people are actually happy being overweight and no one has
the right to comment in a derogatory way about it.
Facebook is used a lot to vent and insult others, it’s such a shame
that people feel the need to be so negative - does it make others feel bigger
to make someone feel smaller? I’ve
always been brought up to believe, “if you haven’t got something good to say –
don’t say anything at all!”
On that note, I’m going to have a shower and get ready for my first
meeting, I’m so looking forward to catching up with all my members, I hope you’ve
all had a good week and if you haven’t we can sort it out.
