As of 5pm today I am officially on holiday!!! YIPPPPEEEE!!!! No work now until 20th August!!
I have still got such alot to do and as usual the time just seems to be flying past!!
Lauren still has her dance summer school tomorrow ~ it is the last day and she has a presentation of her work in the afternoon ~ which Dan and I are going along to watch. Lauren has totally loved this week ~ The principle of her dance school spoke to me yesterday and said that Lauren is showing real promise in her dancing and she would like Lauren to do more classes!! SO ~ from September Lauren will be doing Ballet, Tap, Modern and now also Hip Hop ~ which the principle thinks she will be really good at!! It will not cost me anything for uniform as Lauren already has all she needs and there is a reduction of fees if you take 3 or more classes a week ~ so it should not work out that expensive (which my Bank Manager will be pleased about!!).
While Lauren is at her dance school tomorrow ~ I am going to take Daniel out ~ so that we can have some time together ~ he will really like that ~ as it does not happen very often!! I am not sure yet what we will do ~ I think we will just see what we feel like doing in the morning!!
Wednesday is weigh in day and this week I have lost another 2 pounds ~ bringing the total to 47 pounds ~ which is 3 stone and 5 pounds!! I feel that it is starting to slow down and I am having to work at it a bit harder ~ up to now it has just dropped off ~ I think that the next few stones will be a little bit more un willing to shift ha ha !!!!
I haven't seen my Mum since April ~ which is when the picture below was taken (Excuse the hat ~ I was modelling Laurens easter bonnet!!!) This was actually the photo that made me decide that enough was enough ~ I had been through a divorce and my life had been in free fall ~ BUT ~ there had to come a point where I took charge again ~ and this photo made me sit up and do something!!!! 13 weeks and 3 stone 5 pounds later!!

HURRAY!! I AM ON HOLIDAY!!!
I hope that my Mum notices a difference!!! I am sure that she will!!
Anyway ~ I still haven't found the holdalls and rucksacks that I need so that I can pack ~ I have a slight recollection that I put them in the garage ~ so I had better go and have a root around ~ so that I can get all packed tomorrow ~ ready for us heading off on Friday!!!!
Hope you all have a lovely evening XXXXX

tabitha, you are beautiful regardless!!! does your mum know you have been dieting; or will this be a surprise???
i bet you are really looking forward to getting to spend time with her and have a nice, long holliday!!!
it's great that lauren has excelled so at her dance especially since she loves it!!!
and, i cannot wait to hear about your day out with daniel; you two have fun:D have you ever laser tagged??? (do you have those over there???)
i LOVE to take katherine, hannah, and "the peasants". i play, too!!! i can be such a kid when i'm not being an old lady, ha!!!
whatever you two decide to do, make a memory:D
love,
dani
Dani ~ that is so kind of you!! I have held back on the 'before' photos ~ I don't know why!! I just have!! I didn't actually have that many photos ~ as I hated having them taken!!
My Mum has absolutely no idea ~ and I hope that she will be suprised ~ I am so looking forward to seeing her and my step dad ~ and to having a break with the children ~ it is much needed!!
Lauren is totally loving the dancing ~ she has only been doing it for a year ~ but has really taken off with it.
Daniel still hasn't seen the new batman film ~ so I may take him to see that and then for something to eat (I do not think that Lauren is old enough to see the film!). We do have a laser place near to where we live ~ but you have to book in advance ~ Daniel has been to laser parties there and loved it. I agree with you though ~ whatever we do ~ it will be a special memory and that is what is important
love and hugs to you ~ XXXXXXX
Tabitha, your mum is going to be surprised when she sees you! T. you are absolutely gorgeous & congrats on losing more weight, hope you & Daniel have a great day together... I'm sure it'll be fun no matter what you do!! You must be very proud of Miss Lauren, sounds like dancing was made for her!
Have a wonderful day, take care,
love,
Tanya xxxx
Thank you Tanya ~ I hope that she will be suprised!!
I am looking forward to having a day with Dan tomorrow ~ we don't get the chance very often!!
Lauren was definitly made to dance ha ha !!!
love and hugs to you XXXXXXXXXXXXX
Tabitha... Have a great holiday!!!
Oh my goodness, you are so pretty! How wonderful about your weight loss! She can't help but notice. Bravo!
FOR SURE, she'll notice the difference!!! WoW!!! A Wonderful "after" picture sweetie!! You're Beautiful! As you were, "before"!!!!! Happy holidays!!hughugs
Your face looks so thin now! Your mum will definitely notice - you look fabulous!
Wow! There is such a big difference between the before and after pictures, you have done so well. I'm so proud of you!
You enjoy your well earned break Tabitha!!
Dan will like the Batman film, it's a 12A rating, so Lauren could go, but i wouldn't advise it to her, we are glad we didn't take our twins (6 years old) it was a bit violent in parts, they would have loved the violence, but i don't want them to see it, and knowing my boys, play act it! haha!!
Again, well done and have a great break.
Love,
Amanda xx
Thank you WK I will have a great holiday!! XX
Thank you Donna ~ that is very kind of you ~ I am sure she will notice ~ I haven't said anything so that it will be a suprise!!
love and hugs to you XXX
Thank you Donna ~ you are truly beautiful for what you said in your comment ~ that is so kind.
love and hugs to you XXXXX
Thank you Christy ~ I sometimes look in the mirror and don't see a difference ~ it has happened so fast that I am still not used to it ~ I went and bought another smaller pair of trousers yesterday ~ but I still go for my old size ~ it will sink in eventually!!!
Still a few more stones to go!!
love and hugs XXXX
Thank you Amanda ~ it was a bit strange posting that before picture ~ I hate it ha ha !!!
I will be glad when the whole lot has gone ~ another few stones yet ~ I just want to be at the target by christmas ~ but it is getting harder ~ I will have to step up the exercise a bit more ~ it is killing me already ha ha !!!
I thought the same as you about the violence in the batman film ~ Lauren is 6 too and I think that is too young to see it too!!
I am not looking forward to the packing and the drive there ~ will be glad when that is over ha ha !!
love and hugs to you XXXXXXXXXX
Lauren will love hip hop! It's very different from the other classes she's taking. I actually took a class last year (the +20 class that is) and it was real fun!
Your mom is going to be gobsmacked when she sees you! You are doing so well!!!
Love,
Tania
You look FANTASTIC! Enjoy your your holiday!
