Hi and welcome back!
"The seeds that you have planted are beginning to sprout results"
As you have all discussed, some changes have been made...and the result of these changes have already brought results. Now it is more important than ever to remain positive and hold a clear vision of your desire and intention (reminder to complete your homework!!) and be aware of the people around you who encourage your positivity or those with negative mindsets. Even your best friend may want to sabotage your results by persuading you that one piece of cake won't matter!!
Daily action of acting as if you have already achieved your goal- even if it only consists of baby steps -is essential to keep the energy of your manifestation at a high level.

Morning ladies, well from the sounds of your blogs yesterday you all had a fantastic session with Sue and with some great results..Great news!
Apple.....FANTASTIC well done you!!! I'm so proud of you, you really are making it look so easy, you are so positive and encouraging. Thank you for your words yesterday, and funny, I was thinking the same thing, I'm going to take this week to clean out my cupboards room by room ready for a fresh start. I think I need something to focus on so it will be challenging and rewarding, something I'm not going to get from my gym sessions!
I had a bad day yesterday, I wanted to eat anything and everything I just felt so hungry!!! I wonder why after all this time? We even had a chinese takeaway last night and I struggled with what to order so I just ate what was ordered!! A bit of a set back, but today I've woken with a fresh mind and totally focused. I did make Sue's breadless pudding, so that will keep me going for a few days.
Right off to have some breakfast now as starving....but I'm going to chose the right thing!!!
Hi Everyone
Thank you to Sue, Jayne and Nat for brilliant session yesterday morning - so informative and great to discuss our demons. I think I actually established in my head that losing a weight is just a very small cog in the wheel to getting myself how i want to be - both in mind and body! So thank you for your honest exchanges. Sorry again I can't make today Sue - because of my hectic lifestyle, i have always made Sunday very special for me to do what i want to - it usually involves work (i have been writing reports this morning for my AGM tomorrow etc but it is my choice). Promise to work harder at our sessions this week. Off to walk the dog in a mo - such a beautiful day! Hope Pear to meet you this week. I have had a couple of setbacks with desserts too but back on mode now. Enjoy your Sundays y'all xx
Whoops forgot my food diary:
morning: porridge, blueberries, grapefruit
lunch: 3 ryvitas, humous, ham, banana
mid-pm satsuma
dinner: steak, mushrooms, carrots, curry sauce (checked ingredients) rice
Hi everyone
Another beautiful day today. I woke refeshed even though I had gone to bed at 1.45am as I had friends for dinner. I noticed the difference. If I had been drinking alcohol, I would have felt muzzy headed and lethargic.
It was my sisters birthday today and we had a family lunch at her daughters.
I refused a g and t when I got there and had tea.
She did a beautiful simple fish dish of grilled tilapia marinaded with lemon and
coriander, the downside was a small amount of salad that was only garnish size, the other elements were cous cous with roasted vegetables through it.
know cous cous was not meant to be eaten, however, I took the view that
there was not enough food without it to last me till I got home at 7pm and so
had the cous cous.
There were profiteroles for pud. I had no problem refusing, also pink fizz( a weakness of mine) but again I had no problem refusing. We went for an hours walk and then back for chocolate birthday cake and tea. Again it felt ok to say no thank you. No one even asked me why!
I have a manic March work wise and so glad I have extra energy to use.
Food today
muesli with yogurt, seeds,soya milk, banana
grilled lemon and coriander tilapia, roasted veg couscous, salad
1/2 natural juice bar
prawns, mixed salad, roasted veg, pear
Oh btw. Dark rye ryvita is 100% rye
also I wanted to tell you all about fresh lemon and gingerdrink. Slices of lemon and fresh root Ginger, pour on fresh boiled water and leave to infuse for a couple of minutes before drinking. I top mine up several times. This is my first drink of the day- a good liver cleansing drink.
Hi ladies, great to read your comments today!
Pear, the hunger might well be related to the fact that you were feeling less focused but good to hear you are back on track today!
Mara, some good positive self talk! Hope that you soon find the exercise we are doing so beneficial that you will want to do it...even on a Sunday!!:) Great food choices again, well done! Have to appologise for questioning the Ryvitas..not all of them contain wheat! And well done for checking the curry sauce..
Jayne, probabaly a very good idea to have thought carefully and chosen the cous cous..I agree, it was the best choice you could have made in the circumstances as if you hadn't had it, you may have found yourself hungry later and opting for the chocolate cake.
Sounds like you had a lovely day with your sister!
so, another day and some more steps forward have been achieved.... happy days!!
Hi girls! What a lovely sunny day!! Sue, quite amazingly your first comments today were exactly what I have been thinking about all day...people who encourage and those who are saboteurs!
I had the pleasure and challenge of experiencing both today. Firstly a wonderful friend of mine who has been SO supportive of my efforts. One of the best things about them for me is that they actually say very little about my Fat Scrap plan. Whilst they let me talk about it if I want to, they don't constantly ask what I've eaten, what exercise I have done, how much weight I have lost.... The message I get is that, far from not caring how I'm doing, they care greatly to make it not my main focus. They make me see it as something which isn't bigger than me, just a part of my life which I have gained control over. In doing so this person helps me move ever forward, closer to my goal. Thank you and if you read this, you know who you are and I love you very much xx
Secondly my saboteur of the day! Yes, someone who is totally and completely obsessed with food. The food they eat, but more so the food I eat. Someone who has lost a lot of weight over the last few years using Weight Watchers but for whom their 'diet' is definitely bigger than them and totally controls their life. Constantly looking for justification and acceptance of the food and drink choices they make and always wanting me to 'join in'. To have a glass of wine, to have a pudding, a treat. I was very proud of myself for being strong today and fighting off my saboteur's best efforts!!
I've noticed a big shift in my way of thinking over the last two months. I'm now considering all the time what things are really important to me. What are my values? What are my priorities and what are my goals? These sessions with Sue have really helped me to focus on these things and I have them stuck like little post it notes onto my mental mindscreen in front of my eyes. Always there to remind me!
Do I want that pudding?? No because I VALUE my commitment to becoming fit and healthy, it is my PRIORITY to do this right now in my life and choosing not to have it will get me one step closer to my GOAL.
I'm looking forward to a new week beginning and ready for all the delights and challenges that will come with it!!
So interesting about your friends, Apple..thank you for sharing this with us. It reminds me of the email being passed around about how some people come into our lives for a short time and others stay for much longer..my take on this is that we all have messages for each other and sometimes it may only take a moment to share our messages but sometimes it may take a lifetime! I'm so pleased for you that you are able to hear the messages you are receiving from your friends..I just hope they are listening to yours! x x
