So I was all excited about going tonight to get our flowers sorted out for the wedding, made the mistake however of bringing my mum!!!!!
Honestly just casually mentioned the meeting this morning and shes like
"u have to get ur aunty a flower for the wedding, SHES MY ONLY SISTER!!!!!!!!"
that was her first point
then it was "U HAVE TO GET UR BROTHER A FLOWER!!!!!!!!!"
So in total I need about 20 buttonholes... might as well give everyone who is coming to the day time a freakin button hole as there is going to be more with than without!!!
My impression was that its only the ushers, best man, groom and dads that get one.... but NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO my mum wants my uncle to have one and my brother.....
Girl wise (they dont even technically need one) theres my mum and his mum (apparently they should be different to everyone elses) my nan, his nan, his stepmum, his sister and my aunty!
Im so annoyed!
Im not made of money!!!!!!!!!!!

Takeaway???? hmmmmmm............
Hey all
Haven't been very well over the last couple of days, caught this sickness bug thats been going round :(
But by last night I was starting to feel a lot better when I got a text off my fiance.... "I fancy a chinese tonight"
Its prob the first time I've thought to myself that even though I really wanted one, I turned it down.
I ended up having a weight watchers spag bol meal instead! GO ME!!! haha
But even though I haven't been very well I don't think ive lost any weight this week which is quite gutting.
I got weighed yesterday morning and the scales still said the same as they did on tuesday :(
I know I would definately loose a lot more weight if I did exercise, but honestly I just cant be bothered and I know thats an awful attitude to have!
Everyday when I'm at work I'll be thinking "yes definatly going to do a workout tonight" then I get home, sit on the sofa and watch tv!
If I had some spare money Id go to like a gym or start zumba again, but im skint!
Xmas/Wedding has taken away every spare bit of money I had left, so its down to me and my living room!
I think after reading this back all I can think is that I am being lazy, so once again I will tell myself "I WILL EXERCISE TONIGHT!!!!!!"
Will let u know how it goes!

Weight Loss - week 3
omg im soooooooooooo happy!!!
another 1lb off this week which means im now 6.5lbs down in 3 weeks!!!!
had an okayish week too so I think looking back if I had been a little bit better food/drink wise I would of lost more!
ate well all week then on wednesday night went to an italians and a concert - ended up eating potato skins for start with garlic sauce and 1/2 pizza and salad for me main - 2 glasses of wine and 1 pint of fosters.
To be honest looking back I could have had muscles or bruscetta for starter and a pasta or salad for me main and that would of been a lot less fattening! But then I suppose if I was eating healthy all the time I might just get sick of it and end up coming off the diet so I'm trying to balance it out as much as I can :)
would love to hit the 1/2 stone mark next week but im not going to just aim for 1/2lb as i would like to loose a bit more! so my goal for next week is 1.5lbs - best be good!
got plenty of veg/weight watcher meals in the house so just need to make sure i stick to them. no takeaways etc!
out on saturday night for a few drinks so i think ill just stick to single vodka soda n lime :) as thats only 2 points each!
wish me luck!!! x

WEIGHT LOSS!!!!!!!!!!
So I think the last time that I was on here I mentioned that I joined Weight Watchers.
Well I had a REALLY GOOD WEEK! Tried to stick within my pro point limit of 27 and weekly limit of 49 and lost............
5 LBS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Omg I was so so happy!
But I dont think ive lost any this week, I think after the initial drop my body is adjusting and I think I will probably stay the same when I get weighed on Tuesday - but u never know! I may just loose weight - fingers crossed!

Update on Wedding Plans :)
So sorry I haven't been on here for a while!
But a little update on wedding plans :)
On Sunday 7th October me and my MOH Amy went to Newcastle Racecourse for a wedding fair!
Saw some really good and interesting ideas!
For instance - theres a company called "Pod Shotz" which is basically a plastic pod, filled with any shot of our choice and its sealed with a plastic lid which has a personalised message on it. Thought it would go nice in our favour boxes :) They also fill them with sweets for kid ones! Only £24.95 for 28 which is a fab price I think!
Other than that to be honest there wasn't much of interest!
Two suit companies were there - which were Slaters and Moss Bros - but my other half does need to go himself to work out what kind of suit he wants.
BUT
and I think the main part of this day was that the room they had set up was done in an AMAZING pastel colour theme - green and pink - which I LOVED!!!!!!!!!! So instead of my posts and our wedding theme being light blue it is now going to be............
PASTEL PINK & PASTEL GREEN
It looked lovely all set up so I was having a chat with my other half and we thought that the lads cravats would be in the green colour and the bridesmaid dresses would be in the pink.
Then the tables and chairs would be a mixture of both colours, but I will have to check with the chair cover company that is included within our package to ensure that they wont charge us any extra to have the two colours rather than the one!!!

Week so far! :)
Hey all!
So my week so far......
Been very healthy!
Had ham salad in a brown pitta bread for me lunch tuesday and yesterday, chicken and veg for me tea tues night, gammon peas and tomato last night for tea and just been eating weight watchers bars for my breakkie so ive cut down on my bread in take too! YAY!
Trying to drink a lot of water so feeling quite bloated maj of time but ive been told this feeling passes after a while!
Just got this new workout dvd too - Sean T Insanity Workout - its meant to be amazing if followed correctly so im just waiting on that arriving - hoping by tomorrow and I will get started :)
Went to see Dirty Dancing last night - it was immense and I resisted the usual chocolate and ice cream from the overpriced stalls lol so i was good!
Working tonight until 9pm though so not sure whether I should have tea when I get in or not! Dont really like eating at that time of night but im always hungry by then, so may just have a little weight watchers meal!
Feeling quite positive! People at work today had pizza n chips etc from the chippy but i just had a 7 point sandwich, a ww yogurt and a peach!
Hoping it'll last!
-----------------------
Wedding wise - theres a massive wedding fair on sunday at the Newcastle Racecourse so im looking forward to going to that with my maid of honour Amy! Must not sample the cakes though! MUST NOT!
I will let you all know next week how that went! :)
Slightly closer to finishing our guest list - by that I mean ive wrote down who I think is our guests ha just waiting on jay doing his bit!

Weekend.........
So quite disapointedly I had a bad weekend.
Outa sheer boredom and I guess lack of money to go and buy food we just ate what was in the freezer all weekend and unfortuantely that was pizza, currys, chips etc!
Quite disapointed in myself thinking about it, I need to plan better money wise for the month so that I am not worrying about not having enough money towards the end therefore not being able to buy salad, veg, that kinda thing!
Joining weight watchers tomorrow and although payday is not until friday I'm going to borrow some ££££ off my mum so that I can at the very least buy some veg or something!
Looking forward to joining weight watchers actually. Going at 6pm, so that I can stay for the whole class to get intructions on how to do the diet and hopefully a bit of inspiration!
I can still loose a stone by xmas I think with the right planning!
Also going to be exercising at least 3 times a week to begin with! Even if its just a little bit its more than I am doing now so anything will help :)
I think when I get bored or feel down I eat as comfort as im sure a lot of people out there do! Need to try and get out of this habit! And maybe go for a walk instead? Maybe if you read this blog and u do the same u cud let me know how you got out of that habit?
Speak soon :)
