Took a trip up to Stockton with my friend. Sad that she has been requesting help through a bypass for 3 years solid and had all but given up hope. She was passed from pillar to post and last year I persuaded her to be asked to be transferred to James Cook. Even today she was in tears upset at what would be said and that this was the very last push as she has been let down too often and promises of help always taken from her. It was worth the trip as she really didn't want to be on her own. The look on her face was priceless to say the least it took the surgeon and nurse 3 times to get her to speak so I said rather loudly that 50 shades at the pics would be off. Ahah I said then surgeon said again would the 21st of March be suitable for the operation. She so deserves this and I'm over the moon with her. :) xxxx

Well today has been spent at home sorting through clothes. I even have a designated gym clothes section and that's a first for me. Down to size 20 top and a 22 comfortable bottom. I will get there lol. My sons (oldest) care worker told me today that she thinks I look fab and said the gym won't help my waist and bum much and gave me an nhs link for exercise which turned out pretty interesting so will be trying some of them at home whilst no one is at home to see if I can do any. Only been to gym twice since I got the go ahead from the docs but think I'm gonna concentrate on swimming in the next few weeks. Feeling really tired even though I've had the B12 jabs but think it's because my intake is still very low. The last two day has been very slow getting it down me so after following the 20/20 rules I'm still not getting through to the empty plate in fact not even half way but I'm putting this down to my gallbladder...roll on to the 20th of March then things should get better. :)
 
I don't know where your mustering your energy from sweetness..... i was flagging at a mere 800 cals when i was struggling some days lol your not even managing half that?? i hope once your gallbladder is sorted things will start to improve......... i know things have already gotten a lot better..and it will get much better eventually :) slowly slowly catchy monkey as they say LOL i love sorting my wardrobe these days....and being much smaller the wardrobe seems bigger hence more gets crammed in lol its just such a shame to have to part with things without getting much wear..... my swimsuit (new for my hols last year) has got to go :( tried it on yesterday, and although it fits ok its far too big for swimming.... i know once in water it will gape terribly so new one needed soon me thinks. I remember last year going to buy it, how proud i was to be getting an 18 lol i amaze myself now looking at 12's and sometimes i even allow myself to peek at the 10's.... .now there's hoping :)

Huge hugs x x x x x off to check out that link ty x x x x x
 
I had a swimming costume with a skirt for years,me very year it got smaller and last year I went for do hydrotherapy fir my knees, I tried on the swimwear and it looked lie I was wearing a thong back to front positively indecent so I had to buy another one, nice black one from Evans nice fit but now I need another one because this one is going to release my boobs any day now, I think they are just going to float out of the top not a good look I'm suer. I have never lost my boobs before but now I'm not sure where they have gone I might have trouble getting a costume to fit the top and the bottom .:)

Lol I know hun my dietitian is going mad with me but the surgeon says try up it as much as you can every day. I just cannot physically eat any more so I'm counting on my gallbladder being the cause. I've had a scan and everything looks fine from surgical point of view even if still tender but that only to be expected. Had chest pain all day so not even going to attempt to eat. As for the wardrobe all I am worried about is if I can get into my holiday clothes...you have done absolutely amazing hun and even more so because you have done all of this yourself in such a very short space of time. I know it must get annoying sometimes but you truly are an inspiration to all of us. Me well I just think that you're amazing full stop hun and thank you from the bottom of my heart for being there for me. Much love and endless hugs my dear friend xxxxxx
 
Sorry your feeling ruff again, roll on the 20th March.
If your in 20s now soon be looking at 18s, holiday clothes here they come.

Take care, try and get some rest. XXXX

Cupid you look great and I bet you feel it. It's funny I've just got back from clothes shopping at Asda. I was told today at work that I looked like I had been shopping at a charity shop ( some good bargains in those shops so not knocking them lol) but I was asked did I have that bra on to keep my sandwiches in because it was going so much. So payday today of I go bought new bras and a few tops but my best buy is a dress size 18 the 16 was just a tad to tight but before today I wouldn't have got it over my head let alone its a bit tight I'm so very pleased. There is no better feeling knowing it's not going to go back on next week. So I will go to work Monday in my new clothes, ASDA didn't have a good variety so I might have to go to better shops from now on a woman I work with suggested Evans how dare she lol. What does your hubby think of the new emerging you is he impressed :)
