Subway...yum!

Well Ive pointed my food today, and it included some alcoholic drinks later this evening!

I even had a foot long subway sandwich all within points!
Also, have booked flights to go and see my friend in London later this year, so I'm really excited about that! I've also been to see the GP about the GP referral scheme that weight watchers has. She didn't know anything about it, so I've given her some information so maybe that well help me save some pennies!

Am feeling pretty good today, going to wear my beautiful Bettie Page dress tonight....its truly beautiful! I'll get some pictures taken and put on here as soon as I can.

Heading off to the start of the Great North Run 2010

As you can see I've got a picture from Sunday uploaded, I've got my Parkinson's UK vest on and my Moonwalk 2010 hat on (from when mum and i did the moonwalk marathon walk this year). Am hoping mum will do the GNR (walking) next year as well.
There is a picture of me from the finish on a camera somewhere, so I shall get that sorted and uploaded!

End of the day....kind of

Been having a very points wise, being generally quite good up until when I go to the meeting on thursday for the official first (this time) weigh in!

Just having a glass of wine at the moment before going to meet one of my friends. Just hoping my willpower appears soon. I really want to do it this time, so I need to get my head in gear.

anyone got any willpower bottled for me?

sorry its such another short entry, but im a busy lady!!!

Great North Run

Well I finished the full 13.1 miles.

Official time 2 hrs 44min 58sec

I AM SO HAPPY!

didnt think i'd be able to do it this quickly, so aiming to do it even quicker next year.
Im very achey today, but still feeling amazing. Already to sit down and plan my day of food to make sure im within points but not feeling hungry.
I had a few pints last night, but i felt i deserved it lol.

THE DAY HAS COME

The weekend

Had a random evening out last night with some mates. Went to see a couple of bands, and home by 11. Had 4 pints of cider and some chips...not very good for a weight watcher is it?!

So today, I was up for work. Had 2 boxes of fruities and a packet of Quavers. Then me and the husband went out for lunch. I was going to have a pizza, but we decided to have a starter so i changed to a pasta dish. It was so filling I couldn't even finish it! I usually would have shovelled it in anyway, but the way I'm thinking is changing, so I decided to leave what i couldn't eat.

Am getting very nervous about the Great North Run, but I can only do my best right?

And I've had a few people asking what the 30 day shred is. Basically Jillian Michaels, the female trainer from biggest loser, has done a fitness DVD. and its brilliant! The work out is only 20min!

But yea, the weekend is going well so far :-)

30 day shred - day 1

Started the day very well today, I've just completed Level 1 of the 30 day shred and signed up to weight watchers monthly pass...again.
I'm going to go back to the meetings i used to go to. I loved them and did so well.
Obviously people will be skeptical about  me doing it AGAIN, but it has to work!!

Have had a chat with my lawyer friend about my pay/contract, so have been in touch with my boss. I'm yet to hear from him, but i'll keep you guys posted!

A productive day...mainly

Had a productive morning in the office.

However, i've now realised I'm earning less than minimum wage. Which really annoys me, especially as i've asked for a pay rise previously. Got my kick ass employment law buddies checking out my contract. I'm a bit worried as it came up in conversation with some of the mums at the pool, and they were annoyed and shocked i was getting paid so little for the huge amount of work i do. Then my boss was talking to them, and i think they mentioned it to him. I think hes going to want to see me tomorrow and tell me off.
Feel like i'm always screwing up, but i really do work so so hard and come out with such a pittance of pay. I teach private lessons, cover group lessons, sort out all the admin, deal with all the crap from parents and come out with less than the teachers.

Urgh....just pees me right off that I work so hard, and there are scummers out there who do sod all and get more money than me to live on. Dont get me wrong I love my job, but i feel i deserve more.

On a more food related thing, today has been a good day. Made a tasty Quorn chilli for tea served with rice and lettuce. Was yummy!
Also I rode my bike to the office, to the pool and home again.

so yea, the day has ended well!
Hope you are all well :) xx
