Good morning peeps
Not much to update. I'm still down at Powfoot at the van. Weather has been a bit disappointing. That Indian summer has not materialised yet lol. But it's has been dry and I have enjoyed walking the dogs in this glorious setting right on the shores of the Solway Firth
I still don't have access to my scales so have no idea about my weight. However, I am feeling great and so in control. I absoloutely love this band
My pain on the left hand side wounds is hugely improved now ..,just the slightest twinges and a very slight tenderness on my port site. Most of the scabbing is off my wounds so looking good for getting back to the swimming next week
Went shopping to Gretna gateway yesterday. First time I have seen myself in a full length mirror in a week or so..wow!!!!! What a difference. I tried on some dresses. There is one on sale that I love. Have been watching it for a while and it was reduced down to £25. I am going away for Xmas to the canaries. I tried on an 18!!!!!!! It was perfect all over except a bit tight round the tummy, I tried on the sixteen which I got on but it was welded to me...it was stretchy material with lots of wee layers which hide a multitude lol. I though about taking the 16 for my hols but wondered if come December it might be too big. So decided not to bother. I'm sure done December I will find a couple of dresses. But probably nothing in bright colours. This one was all greens yellows blues, a real move away from my black. I will probably just go to asda or something because I don't want to spend a lot in my transition stage. I liked the idea of getting this decent quality dress at such a great price :-(. What a dilemma..a good one though ;-)
You know I don't have a full length mirror at home. Just a half mirror which let's me see to my waist
So I went to the Mark and Spenser's outlet and bought 4 pair of microfiber nickers for a tenner. Size 18,,, going to try a pair today and a lovely sweet nightie which was on sale. The most soft stretchy adorable per una, grey with a tiny wee flower pattern. Size 18!!! I'm wearing it right now. Not bad for a chick that bought size 22 nighties for her surgery
So feeling great. Loving banded life so far
Have a brilliant day out there
Karina, what's your new diary called. I have been looking for you babe
