Big day ahead

I stayed up late creating this new look and today I am going to pay for it.

I want your honest feedback on the redesign. If you don't want to leave a comment please email me at suckingitin at g mail dot com.

The idea of the banner is that you are being given free movie tickets to my journey with weight-loss, and that popcorn is airpopped and light [because I say it is]!

I am so tired my eyes sting!

I have my appointment with an occupational physician today and I'm scared. I am shell-shocked from the other specialists I've seen. After that I have my physio appointment and my psychologist appointment to finish the day off.

Told you it was a big day.

I've been eating almost completely to plan for the past 3 days. I started off with the first 3 days being lower in kilojoules than needed so I could kickstart my body. I snuck onto the scale earlier and the commitment has paid off. I've almost lost a kilo already! Let's hope my motivation doesn't wane today when I am tired.

Now I have to get off of here fast because I still have salad to chop for lunch and I only have around 45 minutes to get myself out the door.

Happy Thursday to you!

Oh and please tell me if the page looks good on your monitor (whatever size it is).

Smoochyboochies.

Sorry to be the voice of doom, but I use Firefox, and it's a mess. At the top, the text is floating over the images & rendering the words unreadable. Also, the bar with the stats in it floats in the middle of the page, blocking the main text.

Yup, I use Firefox too and it's all over the place.f

Um...hate to say, but in Firefox, the page isn't readable at all anymore. The yellow box runs right down the middle of everything....

Looks great in Internet Explorer, but no good Firefox (like the other Firefox users said).

I loved your old design, and love this one too!

heya sweety! gr8 to see you back and in yellow! much more you. Now i get the popcorn and the tickets but the lizard...............? he he! I really do love it, but I am wondering whether there should be something on the right hand side of the page? Someone said they had stats running through the middle of their page? I can't see stats so I am wondering whether that is what is meant to be on the right hand side?

One kilo? yay!
Love it!

Much more you.

It is also much easier to read with bigger spaces between paragraphs. (My eye notices things like that)

You've done a great job. :-)

A trip down memory lane

Hello to all of you all of you coming via Michele , thanks for stopping by and I only hope it was worth the trip over. I began reading through the questions on the Slimmer of The Year application today. Of course there are so many things I want to include, but I can't possibly write everything I want to or they will be getting a novel. When I started thinking of how long I have been overweight and the reasons I struggled for so long with food and weight issues a lot of memories came back to me. I've been challanged by my weight for most of my life. Granted some of that time I only thought I was fat when I really wasn't. The point is that I have been fat inside my head for as long as I can remember. One of the most shameful and embarrassing moments was when I was 15 and some of the boys in my class thought it was funny to sing "thunder, thunder, thunder thighs hooooooo!" when they saw me coming to the tune of the cartoon "Thunder Cats." That experie...

Life happens

I wish I could tell you guys that everything is on track and that the reason I have not been writing is because life has just been too good. Unfortunately, this is not the case. Winter is generally a crap time of year for me. I thought that this one I could get a handle on it and not have it get the best of me. I was wrong. Exercise? Who me? Eat healthy? Um no. Last night I wanted chips so mr. ralph went out at midnight and got us chips and dip and we sat in our pj's watching the England and Portugal quarter final stuffing our faces. Am I painting a pretty picture? For the most part I eat well. I do. I do not stock my house with these kinds of foods. I have learned that because I am an emotional eater, it is better if I don't. But mr. ralph is too easy. Where I won't go out and buy something at midnight, if I ask him too he will go for me. Yes, I do believe we are in a co-dependent relationship, even where food is concerned. We both eat when we feel emotional....

Unbelievable results

You may have noticed that I changed the 70 to the left to 71. I don't know how it happened, but I actually gained weight this week. What is happening to me? I don't know what is going on, but the scale did say 71 two days in a row. Yes, I am at the end of my TOM and that could contribute to some of it, but a whole kilo? I looked at my calorie count from this week and I went over 1500 only 2 days, Friday and Saturday. Although I did much better this weekend than last, I still struggled with eating more on my off days than during the week. Another reason I had a horrific week was the heat. We had 4 days of over 40C in a row. Now that is just wrong. I can't handle heat very well. I did go for a walk on Saturday and when I came home thought I was going to die from heat exhaustion. Not good at all. I almost declared this week a no-weigh week due to my TOM but have decided to take it as it comes. So I weigh 71 today. Excuse my language but that number really scares the ...
