Slimming world advice please :)

Hope everyone is well. Sorry ex is being a prize idiot bailey. At least you can see him for who he truly is, not much of a man by the sounds of it! Pleased to see your still going strong :-)

Well done on the 1/2 angel.

I'm super tired of poorly kids! Tori just got over Scarlett fever last week and I had her up the docs again yesterday as her mouth is full of blisters, now she has hand foot and mouth and is really struggling with it, I had 2 hours sleep last night as she just cried all night and I'm dreading tonight! Charlie has come from nursery with blood coming out of her ear???
I've cleaned it and I can't see a scratch, it looks like its coming from inside. I can't take her the docs right now as its her worst place, she is autistic and has a huge fear of the doctors. When she is there she has a huge meltdown and can over power me, so there is no way I will be able to hold her for a doc to look in her ear. She doesn't seem fussed and hasn't complained once about it. Google tells me its a burst ear drum so need to get her checked but may have to get my partner to take her tonight to out of hours.
 
Oh dear that does seem rather full on for you latey! Sorry they are so poorly both of them. A bleeding burst eardrum sounds scary! I hope they will both be ok really soon!
 
Oh dear nicki that sounds terrible! I hope they are both ok, must be so hard Hun!! I hate seeing my kiddies sick so both of them sick at once must be so tough to deal with!

Well I didn't get weighed last week but since last weigh in I've lost 1 and a half pounds!!! No idea how coz I've been rubbish but I think jus those little occassions when I could have been bad but didn't have paid off. Back on it now and aiming for 2 and a half pounds this week to get my stone award!!

I bought the Christmas recipe book today too so looking forward to trying some things in there!
 
Well done! I am sure that now knowing what you should avoid must have helped. And doesn't the Xmas book look amazing? I am soo going to try the 0syn pannacotta! I love pannacotta! :)

Nicki how are your LOs now? What time will your OH take her tonight?
 
I spoke to 111 and a nurse and they are not overly concerned about her ear as she has no other symptoms, they said she may have poked something in there and cut it where I can't see!
Hopefully it will be ok, tori however went to bed for 20 minutes and is back up crying!
I hate it when they are poorly and there is nothing I can do. Its because she started nursery 4 weeks ago I think so is picking up every little germ going, the same happened to Charlie when she first started!

Been lazy with my cooking yesterday and today because I can't get away Long enough to fully prepare make something.
 
Let's hope that is it. But I suppose she would have other symptoms wouldn't she, if there was something serious.
Poor Tori though! One thing after the other! But I am sure it is as you say cause of nursery :S I hope she will eventually manage some restorative sleep tonight.
We cannot afford to send ours to nursery but I am sure toddler playgroup or gymboree have given them their current (mild) tummy bug. It isn't very bad, just off their food and runny yellow poo but otherwise their usual selves. But still, one cannot help but worry.
Before I became a mum I had literally NO idea what fear is lol

THIS!!! Or when LO falls and I pray she isn't going to come to me with a face full of blood...I'm not too bad with blood but can't handle it when it's LO

On the subject of ill...think Lily is coming down with a cold I can hear her sniffling over the monitor eeeek. Hubby has also been signed off work for two weeks with cluster headaches fun times eeeek.

soooo I don't know whether you have heard BUT SW and iceland have teamed up and will he producing micro meals in 2015 great for when you cannot be bothered to cook!

I keep thinking about the Christmas book mince pies mmmmm

Post birthday weigh in tonight EEEEEK! RIGHT need to get ready for work before I'm late (again for he 3rd time this week!)
 
Oh happy belated Birthday! Hope you had a fun day and then it was worth the possible gain ;)
 
Yeah our consultant told us yesterday about the micro meals katerz. I think it's great for when you are having a stressful day coz that's when I tend to slip coz I haven't got anything I can eat without cooking from scratch. I wouldn't eat them a lot though coz I reckon fresh food is better.

Happy belated birthday! Hope the weigh in goes ok!
 
Tori is still quite poorly! We both stayed down stairs again last night As her grizzling was keeping Charlie and daddy awake! We Managed to get a few solid hours so hopefully that will help her feel better.

That's good about Iceland, be really handy to have a couple in the freezer for when I have no time!

Talking of falling, I hate my 2 hurting themselves and don't want to pick them up sometimes in fear of what I will be faced with! At 18 months Charlie fell in our lounge and and landed on a toy, I picked her up with a face full of bloody and a missing tooth! Its was horrific! She knocked her front tooth clean out, now I really dread when one of them falls over. Lol.

Hope Lilly doesn't get to poorly katerz and good luck for weigh in :-)
 
Well lily has a cold complete with snot rockets yuuuuk!

I only gained 1lb from birthday naughties yey!
 
that is not so bad. Well done! :)
Poor little one with the snot! Hope it will get better really soon!
Turns out that Sebastian has a worse tummy bug than Dominic did cause he threw up 3 times this morning. He seems fine this afternoon but we didn't go anywhere today and the day seems interminable when stuck at home! Hope he will be ok for gymboree tomorrow. Sigh.
 
Seems there is alot going around at the moment.
Well done katerz you can get that back easily again!
I'm weighing in tonight and have decided that if I have lost again then I'm going to treat myself and have a tuna and cheese panini for my lunch tomorrow.
Probably maintain or gain now I have my heart set on that!
Tori's new bed has arrived so this weekend she will be going into toddler bed...yay!
Got to go out tomorrow and get toddler duvet and pillow and a stair gate for the door. Its going to be a tough week getting her to adjust but can't wait till the cot is gone.
 
Good luck Nicki with the weight loss AND the toddler bed. I am WAY to chicken to put my boys in toddler beds. Or rather to take their cotbed sides down. They sleep so well and don't climb out even though they can that I don't want to mess it all up. lol
 
Another 1 and half down! Wahooo!

I'm keen to do it as she still wakes every 2/3 hours, has done since birth so she can't get any worse, I'm hoping this will break the habit. I imagine the only struggle I will have is getting her back to sleep after she wakes when she can get up again but hoping that will be short lived.
I got Charlie out of her cot at around the same age and it worked really well so I'm hoping for the same again!
Once she has settled in her new bed I will then ditch the dummy, don't want to take her comfort away untill we have cracked the bed.

How's everyone's week been? Anything exciting happened?
 
Well done you! :D How much is that in all now?
And you poor thing with those wakings still. I had almost a year of really bad sleep and will never get over the trauma of it I think lol. I really hope this is going to work well for you :) Does Charlie sleep well now?

Ladies what do you usually eat for lunch? I find it quite hard to come up with fast and easy meals that don't involve too much preparation and cooking.
 
Well done on your loss nicki and enjoy the panini!

I blame the weather change for the bugs...I miss you summer!

I have NO idea when I will take Lily's cot sides down...she rolls around so much and half the time lays across her cot rather than the normal way!

Angel usually I have a jacket spud on the days I'm off work ping it in the microwave for about 7 or 8 mins then crisp in the oven or actifry usually I leave it to crisp whilst getting Lily's lunch sorted. For work stuff it's either a mugshot (snore zzzz) or recently I have been having a pouch of uncle bens golden veg rice which you microwave for 2 mins with either a tin of tuna or chicken then have lots of fruit to munch at my desk during the day.

think the pouch is 2.5 syns? Gonna go check now lol
 
Yep 2.5 syns. I should probably do a syn free rice but I'm funny about cooking rice and getting it wrong hah!
 
10.5 so far, not to far away from my first stone :-)

Charlie has never slept through the night, she is up rattling round her bedroom from 2-5 most nights but meeting alot of other mums of autistic children and aparently its hugely common. She used to be really loud but is usually quite quiet now so I can't usually doze while she is up. Night time in my house isn't hugely different to day there is always someone up rattling about lol. I can't wait for day I get my sleep back again.

I have a ham or tuna sandwich and salad or scrambled egg on toast for my lunch using my healthy extra for the bread.
 
Well done! That is really good!

And as for sleep, I hope your OH helps cause I just cannot imagine how you function if you are awake like that every night, you poor thing!
