Experience: the most brutal of teachers. But you learn, my
God do you learn." C.S. Lewis
A long, relaxed, chilling out day was had yesterday, I did
manage to make our roast beef dinner but that was about all I did! Mom and I watched tv all afternoon, a Will
Smith film (Focus), bit complicated, one of those you have to watch, then some
crime shows (mom loves these) then we discussed and decided that we're going to
have a tree this year, never had on in this house in the 20+ years we've lived
here, we've always gone away so not bothered, then last year was our first at
home and we just didn't bother, but we're thinking a 3-4ft real one in a pot, I
have all the decorations because of a mix up (long story!). We're also having egg and chips again for
Christmas dinner as that's moms favourite meal and she gets to choose, with
frozen garden peas this year rather than the baked beans we had last year. Yeah Christmas is about spending time with
loved ones and doing what you want, making your own traditions and it appears
chips is going to be one of ours. Last Christmas was the first time I'd spent a
holiday week in my house at any time of the year, I'd always gone away
somewhere, looking forward to doing it again.
I've got a couple of books ready to read and I'm hoping some good
rubbish will be on the tv too.
Before that though, a week of meetings ending on Christmas
Eve with a 4 hours weigh-in session for those keen to stay on track and keep
themselves in check, we're going to be at Bloxwich from 7.30-11.30 so the
workers can nip in on the way to work and everyone else can pop in as they are
zipping round getting those last minute bits, we're going to have tea and
toasted teacakes too, with best butter - it is Christmas Eve after all!
There's still a week of weight loss but the running total
for 2015 is 22,410lb or 1,600 stone, that's incredible! That doesn't include all those non-scales
victories my members constantly share with my or post on facebook. I'm looking forward to seeing more of those
throughout 2016, especially now we have the hashtag #MyWWJourney for us all to
use when we're talking anything Weight Watchers on our personal timelines, I
love being tagged in those posts too.
It's been lovely seeing photos of my members in their gladrags going out
on the town to have fun, looking and feeling BeYOUtiful, warms my heart.
So busy, long day ahead for us, another trip to the dentist
later but at least she'll have her new crown in ready for Christmas and a nice
new haircut at lunchtime, so she'll be super BeYOUtiful this December!
Have a great week, remember it's okay to indulge at
Christmas, as long as we don't continue indulging till July! I've got to admit though, I'm ready for some
salad already!
Happy Monday BeYOUtiful!
