So I went to Weight Watchers again last night and found that I have not gained a single pound while on holiday, shocked me especially after being in the States. Anyway I am happy, that mean I still have lost 23 pounds so far, and I will hope to extend this over the next few months as I really could do with loosing at least 100 pounds all together, more is possible, but I am not holding up to much hope of this as I am held back by my own cooking from time to time. I am aware that I might gain a little this week because I gave up hope of not gaining before I weighed in on Monday e.g. I gave into the cake monster (someone's birthday (David S) at the Quaker meeting house's staff meeting).
One of my friends changes the name of WW so that people don't know she goes, but to be honest I would be happier to let people know so that I don't keep being offered things I can't eat, which i find more upsetting. 23 pounds is just over a stone and a half (14 pounds to the stone), which for those of you using kg is 10.45kg (2.2 pounds to the kg). Stir fry's have been my main saviour I think, although soups and stew related dishes are doing well on the list too.
In other news my brother's mortgage people have stopped being such bastards and have finally decided it is time to pay me (fingers crossed), so hopefully on Friday the flat will no longer be mine, but will actually be Seb's. Also this will put my mind at ease when signing contracts this week or next week as I will have the full amount of money in an account so I can pay them. Mind you they only get a deposit till we actually exchange on my new home. I am hoping to get into the house on the 23 August, all so exciting, then I will just have to find a way of collecting all my stuff which is spread out in Chichester and London. At the end of next month me and my brother are sorting out the remaining stuff in the flats loft, to many plates and things, I do think that we might have come to an agreement about the paintings at last which is good, as it was my main worry. I do have a lot to be pleased about when it comes to having such an understanding family, I have been worried about my brother recently because of the stress he has been under but I am hoping this will of passed more not that mortgage bastards are being a bit more understandable.
I hate being pathetic, but I really miss sleeping next to someone I love. It is hard being honest about feelings sometimes, but I am getting used to this. Since leaving the States only 2 days have gone by where I have not spoke to N, we are being so bad about this, but then it is hard. At least it is only 7 weeks till we see each other again (here is Manchester), I guess so of you will meet N, too.
