New BBQ
What a night...
It started really good, good news from the doctors for my husband whose diabetes is becoming more stable. My test results are as expected I have PCOS and he's sending me for a scan now so all is moving along..
Went swimming with my friends Amy, had a really good time and felt better for going. Came home and my husband is trying to assemble my bargin BBQ I brought from ASDA yesterday. Its huge 4 burner, reduced from £200 to £125. What a knightmare to assemble, DIY is not my husbands strong point so there was lots of swearing. It's almost done now but he's finishing in the morning, gone to bed now !!! lol
Men...
Well got an early start tomorrow myself..
Oh by the way I lost 2lb at weigh in on Tuesday bringing my total to 25lb, I am so pleased, I am aiming for 3lb this week as it will make me my 4th silver 7. wish me luck x

My first weigh in day since I started Blogging
Here we go I have less than 1 hour until i have to go stand in the long queue to be weighed.... I am hoping for a 2lb loss, I've had a 80% good week so we'll see might not be that lucky.
I've had a really good day today with my food, and tonight I am going to the pub quiz so I'm looking forward to having a glass of wine with my saved points...
Will update on the weigh in later x

Red Pepper Jelly
Just uploaded some photos of the dog show yesterday, found this on of me, its pictures like this that make me think, omg I really am fat...
Well I brought a jar of Red Pepper Jelly from a food festival at the weekend, just tried it and its devine, not sure if thats a good thing or not!! So I am cooking Salmoln and potatos with red pepper jelly... yum yum
Feeling very positive today pointed all day and so far I have had 10points which means I still have another 19 to go. Think I am going to save 4 as we have Carnival on saturday and a Birthday party which means alcohol!!
On a plus point I have carnival flyers to deliver tonight so will be getting a bit of exercise.

My first ever blog
Its July 5th 2009, and this is my story....
I've never blogged before, but wanted a way to remind my self of the huge journey I started back in Feb 2009, I joined weight watchers.....
I have been over weight for all my life and at school I was always the same weight at my age. In 2006 I had a gastric band fitted, I weighed almost 26stone and was 25 years old. I had the Operation privately, my parents paid the £8k. Within about a year I had lost almost 6 stone, I went to have my band tightened as I noticed that I was starting to increase portion sizes.. They tightened it that much that I couldn't even drink water, it scared me, so after it had been rectified I had the fluid taken out. I still have the band in, but it is not doing anything because it has no fluid.
So here I am Feb 2009 joining weight watchers with my sister and cousin in law weighing 23st 5lb.
I am so disappointed in myself, to have put back on over 3 stone, I've been kidding myself for 2 years that I wasn't putting weight on, well no hiding from it now the scales don't lie....
I am the biggest person in my weight watchers class, and I envy everyone in there.
Its now July 5th and I now weigh 21stone 11lb. I am starting to lose my willpower, had 3 weeks of staying the same, I know the reasons, I haven't been pointing and only been to the gym twice in 3 weeks!!
Tomorrow is the start of a new week and I am determined not to stay the same again this week, I weigh in on Tuesdays, so I have 2 days to be very good (I have had quite a bit of alcohol this weekend).
I am determined to loose this weight my first goal is to see 19stone 12lb on the scales, I haven't been that since I was 19 years old 9 years ago...
I have a very very supportive family and friend network, not that I always appreciate it :-). I am married (9th Aug 08) we have no children, I want children one day ( soon ).
I will succeed even if it takes me a long time.......
