Have A Good Old Moan....

The guy that lives above us is so noisy. He's been renovating the flat since we moved in and he's still at all. Drilling, sawing, scraping at 8am and blasting music nearly all day, sometimes until 12am!

Worst haircut ever.

It's bad enough when they do the opposite of what you ask because they're not really listening. But when they do the opposite badly as well, it really sucks. 🙁

Edited to add a photo.

Now I'm home it's actually even worse than I thought!

I somehow missed this, but this is awful Janine, I'm sorry someone did that to your hair!

You may hate the cut, but the colour looks fabulous!

Supposed to get my hair cut this evening but I've pulled a muscle in my neck/shoulder so can't because it's too painful to move my head 🙁

Sorry you've hurt yourself, and it's crap that you can't get your hair done.

I hope it gets better soon!

Sorry to start this up again but I need to get this out because I feel like I may just scream at someone in the street lol! I joined slimming world in January this year and I have managed to (at a snails pace and I mean like barely half a pound a week most of the time) lose just over 3 stone. As I'm sure you'll understand I'm now starting to feel good about myself even though I still have some to reach my target I'm happy! I can fit in to clothes 4 dress sizes smaller than I could at Christmas last year! BUT about a month a go my hair started to feel and look dreadful.. I was losing more than average and it started to look frazzled in places despite me leaving it a lone for a good while now. At first I thought it was maybe previous damage catching up so I got a good trim and went back to co washing again. Even with the cut my hair after a week looked like id just given it a few rounds of strong bleach and was still coming out more than it would normally so I went to the doctors.
The doctor said that they suspect it is because of my weight loss!!!!!! They explained why but I was just absolutely livid that I've made this lifestyle change, am way healthier than I've ever been, eat the right food and exercise and my hair is like well you can't have it all so I'm gonna mess this right up for you :'( I need to get some good vitamins I think but I'm just so annoyed!!!!

My hair fell out like crazy while I was losing weight. I would find clumps of it all over my floor, it was horrible.

In other news, for the first time in years I don't have any Halloween plans and it's making me sad!

Is your current diet very low in fat? Sometimes increasing the percentage of calories derived from good fats can make a huge difference to skin/hair health. So eat mote nuts/seeds, avocadoes etc

Just because it might be, most likely is, the weight loss causing it. That doesn't mean you need to stop and it doesn't mean that's what they were saying. Do you want them to lie and tell you it's something else? 🙂 But think about it this way, if you're taking in less calories than your body needs to survive, which is the only way you can lose weight, then your body is going to do less of the none essential things. It'll slow done hair production which means either slower growth or lower quality and some hair loss. Though, it normally looks worse than it is because you're panicking and looking for hair that's falling out when you weren't before.

I agree that making sure you have fats in your diet help. Even some of the so called not so good fats are a good thing to have, just minimal.

try taking some hair,skin and nails supplements while you are doing your weight loss diet. They helped me a lot when I was losing weight

Edit to moan: I got a new job where I got to universities to help people with disabilities. i am currently working with an incredibly intelligent man who happens to be partially deaf and partially blind. He has a special microphone for the lecturers to use and I go and take notes for him. However, it really saddens me that his classmates and teachers seems to find it bothersome and never bother to pass around the microphone when they have class discussions. He is also missing some lectures next week and one of the other students said to the teacher that since I didn't pay for the course, I shouldn't attend if the student isn't there. What upset me was that this man really needs the notes I make him in order to do his assignments and now I cant do that because of one selfish/greedy person.  🙁

That's really horrible and pathetic 🙁

Not really a moan, but I'm doing my first proper morning working in my new flat and I swear whoever running the building maintenance it is trying to give me a heart attack.

First there was banging at the door! Turns out it was the cleaner doing the hallways.

Next it was a really loud bang on the window of my 4th floor flat! Turns out it was the window cleaner with one of those really long extended poles with a brush on the end.

Finally just now, it was a fire alarm! Turns they just test it every other Monday morning.

Seriously, I have a massive adrenalin high right now lol

Aw no! They always seem to test our fire alarm on the day I decide to have a lie in! It scares me to death every time!
(and my boyfriend runs our building management company, so in theory I should know when to expect the test!)

Mine's not really a moan either, just one of those things where you think, is it me or is this weird? I was in Subway and ordered my food, got to the till and said to the woman "can I have the bottled drink and a white chocolate cookie as well please?" then this happened:
Her: it comes with the drink
Me: Oh, ok, thanks
Her: so do you want 2 drinks?
Me: erm, no, just the drink it comes with - and a cookie please
her: It just comes with a drink
Me: Yes that's fine, but I'd like a white chocolate cookie as well please.
her: £3
me: ... and I'd like a cookie as well please
her: Well they're 50p extra!!
me: that's fine
her: well which cookie do you want?

Stuff like this always happens to me, my boyfriend used to think I made it up or that I was doing something to cause it but now we live together and he sees it happening he agrees that I'm just some sort of nutcase magnet!

Go to the cinema to watch captain America. Get there nice and early to get your favourite seats. Settle down to watch the film. 10 minutes after its started (yep, the film, not just trailers)  woman and her 3 daughters come in and sit behind you. They proceed to talk at full volume for the next 40 mins. Asking the mother, 'is there any chance we could have some quiet', you'd think I'd asked her to  murder her first born! End up having to sit elsewhere 🙁

Hm... Nothing special but my credit card got blocked for some reason and then "swallowed" by ATM. I'm getting a new one on tuesday, but until then I don't have any money at all -_- Everything is on my account, which I'm unable to control with blocked card and account. -_- I think bank needs to warn me about these things in advance. I could have avoided the issue 🙁
