We Have Babies!
Actually there is only one of them ... and we didn't have them but BF and I happy just the same .... BF and I bought two cows a few years ago (Daisy and Jack). Daisy had a boy calf last year called Yellow (they live on my parents farm and we have adopted their idea of each year calling the calves after a different letter of the alphabet so we can figure out how old they are). We were not certain that Daisy was pregnant or when she was going to calf so were discussing what we would do if she didn't (as in give her another year to try and then send her away). If she was in calf we, while the other cows are due anytime now, were not expecting her to until next year.
Mum has a lovely habit of everytime a cow calves she rings up BF and yells "boil the water" down the phone whereas he hangs up and races around there. This time we were out walking so they drove around trying to find us. It was our Daisy and by the time we got up there (2 minutes away) she has already calved. So we are now the proud owners of a gorgeous wee girl cow called Zulu. Both Mother and Baby fine!
C2 woke up on Saturday and his ear ache had all cleared up. He is so resilient to bugs it amazes me. He is just coping with a very wiggly tooth which he is trying to wiggle out so he can get another visit from the tooth fairy! I will be broke at the rate he is going (second one in a month)!
I didn't eat as well on the weekend as I wanted to and didn't exercise as much either (although I did do an hour walk on Sunday morning) but have started the week anew and am doing rather well .....
Monday
1) track -DONE
2) under 20 pts - DONE
3) weights at home - NOT DONE
4) 1/2 hr walk - DONE actually did 1 hour 45 mins
5) 2+ pump bottles water - DONE
6) 3 servings - DONE
7) healthy snacks if nec - DONE
8) plan daily food - NOT DONE
9) no diet coke - DONE
10) update journal - NOT DONE - far to busy .. seriously!
7/10 ... not bad ....
I am not doing too badly today but will update that later on.
I have been getting quite a few compliments over the last few days. A woman at work stopped me and asked me what I was doing because she said I was 'disappearing' ... how can you lose someone my size!? My Aunty is looking after C1 and C2 during the school holidays and hasn't seen me for a couple of months. She told me I was too thin now. WTF! She also asked me how I was doing it. Maybe I should have tattoed on my forward "I lose weight by watching what I eat and exercising my arse off" ... seriously everybody does know the concept behind weight loss surely but yet everyone is always asking me. I walked into work today and two people stopped me and said 'we were just talking about losing weight and you have lost so much .. how are you doing it?' Now I don't mind giving people advice but these same people asked me about 3 months ago and I told them!
Took my fat clothes to Mum's on the weekend and she is looking at taking them in (a lot!) so I get more wear out of them! Oh my god they are massive. I had to constantly hold them up so she could pin them. It is amazing how much weight I have actually lost and how many clothes I have 'outgrown'. When I finished I put my trousers back on and she rolled her eyes and commented that they needed done as well. I have saved one pay of fat jeans just for me so I can compare with my clothes when I am at goal weight. One of Mum's friends gave her a pile of trousers for me to fit into. They are size 14 but all Just Jeans or Jay Jay trousers so quite small. I can pull them up but not zip them up so am hoping to fit into them by Christmas. My wardrobe is looking totally chocker at the moment!
I started my first day on credit control yesterday so was very nervous. My second call I got abused! Yay! Told my BF and he wanted the number so he could call him and abuse him. Told him things don't really work that way!
So that is me for the moment! I will pop in later and update how I went for today if I have time. I have so much to do tonight for work and can't seem to get any done as the damn phone is always ringing.....
Will catch u later
