Slimpip's Sleeve Jan'14

[slimpip]

So another weigh day has worked it's way around and I'm happy to say I've lost 3lbs!!! That means I'm 14st11lbs!! Eeeeek, how nice does that look, it used to be a number 22, now it's a number 14. I only have a measley 7lbs to lose to hit my initial goal!!! How nuts. Obviously I'm not going to stop there, but I never ever thought I'd be here this quickly...not even 9 months out and almost at my target. To have a bmi of 25.1 I'd need to be 12 and a half stone, I think this might be achievable!!! I never thought I'd say that, I think maybe I thought I couldn't do it, but you know what, I ruddy well can!!! AND I WILL!!!!! X

Hope your gallbladder is sorted out soon for you! It must be terrible with all the pain it brings! Fingers crossed its going to be sorted really soon.

Btw, congrats on 2 more lbs lost!

I've hit the slow/big fat 0 stage now too - just so much earlier than I thought

Disheartening. But at least we know it will come off in the end now. xx

Hope you're okay xx

Ohhhh ladies last night was horrific. I had another gall bladder attack and this one was the worst since the one where I was hospitalised. It was agony and I was on my own! Guy was babysitting so couldn't leave so I had to do what all self respecting adults do...I called my mum. Mum to the rescue!! She came over straight away, not that there was much she could do, but I just needed someone there, incase the pain didn't go and I needed to go into hospital.

I am losing weight this week though, although obviously don't weigh until Tuesday, but if I continue as I am, at least it won't be another no loss week.

The weather is vile, I hope you all have a nice weekend and can manage to keep dry xxx

Hi pip - I've just joined and have been reading your completely inspirational diary - have now got a crick in my neck and sore eyes from compulsive reading!
I'm struggling with this site and hope I can find you again for the next thrilling installment

I sympathise with the gallbladder thingy - absolutely hideous - no pain like it. I'm lucky that I've not had any symptoms for 12 years (after 10 years of it on and off). No idea why it doesn't bug me these days, but I'm not complaining. It has reminded me to mention it to my surgeon though - perhaps he'll want to whip out the gallbladder at the same time?

Keep going - you're so close now!

 

[slimpip]

Hi Katyloo!! Thanks so much for reading my diary, I used to do that when I was waiting to go under the knife, searching for people's positive experiences, so I'm glad to be part of your journey, however small.

Well ladies...today is the day that I have officially lost 8st....yes that's right, 4lbs lost this week bringing me to 112lbs lost and on my ticker only 1lb to lose. I am going to set a new target of 12st5lbs...bmi of 24.9. That's another 2 stone and within a healthy bmi range. Pretty big ask maybe, but I think I can do it, unless I get pregnant first lol.

I am also officially in size 16 trousers and skirts now, haven't tried tops as I'm quite busty so think 16 might take a while longer on top, but hey ho! Some of my 18 tops are big, so perhaps it's time to try lol.

I'm so thrilled and even more excited to announce that we are now officially Trying To Conceive. I know it's a tad early (2 and 1/2 months early) but we are just so ready and I'm thinking it may take a couple of months for it to happen anyway (and that's if we are lucky, obviously could take a much longer time). I can't wait to announce my pregnancy to you all, I do hope it won't take long!!!!! XXX

P.S. Here's my before and now photos, clothed and 'less than' clothed lol x
