Abi's weightloss diary - post jaw surgery

well guys. according to my scales i've gained this week and it's the dreaded weigh in day. i can only conclude it's because totm is approaching (or at least it is if my hormone levels and rargh factor are anything to go by... ha). i have had an extra ss+ day this week but certainly not enough to GAIN weight. hmph. maybe my cdc's scales will tell me differently and maybe i'll have to wait a fortnight to find out as she's going on holiday. and aargh. i am only 0.25lbs away from being in the 13s on her scales *sniff*. hmph again.

still not feeling particularly perky. possibly because i get into the office in the dark and i can't see out of any windows without wandering around and opening blinds which annoys others because of glare on their monitors, and then when i leave again, dark again. am going to try and go and meet a friend for coffee this lunchtime so at least i get out of the bloody building!!

ha. we've just posted in each other's diaries at the same time there janey :)

hoping i will get to catch up with my mate. but if she only came back from egypt at the weekend (i have lost track of time, not sure when she came back) then she'll probably be up to her arse in work today. but we'll see :)

i have just written this on the daily thread but i'm so angry about it, i'm going to write it here too:

hello guys.

i'm fuming!!

we are supposed to provide late cover on tuesdays and possibly wednesdays if it is required. and the supervisors are supposed to let us know a week in advance. of course they haven't. they have passed the buck from person to person, finally telling us to ask the person that was in over the weekend. that is not our job. they are supposed to work out whether they need cover and let us know. this is now the day after tomorrow, and being in my general angry frame of mind i went and said to the supervisors, look, it's me. it's the day after tomorrow. i need to know what i'm doing. at which point i got told that we should have gotten in touch with the supervisor in question and asked them. which we shouldn't. that is their job. they are there a great big bunch at a time to sort this out between them. and they haven't. they are now having to disturb the poor woman at home to ask her if she wants extra cover from IT on wednesday night. i will point out that the original email telling us to check with her wasn't actually sent to her, so she didn't know she had to tell us.

aaaargh. so i'm no longer the favourite IT person in the department, ha. still. it's about time somebody told them something like that. she actually said that they shouldn't have to be doing this. the fact is, that is their job. and they should. and everybody heard her. and now i'm still shaking i'm so angry. as if we should chase down every member of staff and ask if they need our help. that wasn't the agreement. if it had been the agreement then we wouldn't have agreed to it. grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.

woo, angry abz! lol. you're absolutely bloody right, sounds like some people aren't doing their jobs properly... x
 
well they can't get in touch with her (if they actually tried to in the first place) and have said we'd better come in just in case. although she is working tomorrow so i'll ask her then. part of me thinks they've just said that to get back at me for asking them in the first place. i know it doesn't sound like much to be angry about, but we spend so much time every week trying to chase them down about this. and usually all i end up doing is working really unsociable hours for no extra money and twiddling my thumbs because they didn't really need me anyway.

well done, it is much better to tell them how you feel than to bottle it up and eat it outta yourself later(my usual trick).

hee. that made me smile :D

the person in question won't meet my eyes now and is probably badmouthing me to the rest of the office... but she can't do that without saying what i've done.

i know it seems like such a small thing, but it was kind of the final straw. we do so much that should be their job, not ours, that i just got in a bit of a rage, ha.

oops.

but i don't have a problem with letting bygones be bygones and just carrying on. looks like she does. my colleague has very kindly offered to work the late shift for me on wednesday so i can meet up with my best friend as arranged. i could do it but he has insisted, says he is 304% positive. and he thinks my rage is rather humerous and very justified, ha.

so yeah. i feel rather bad about him doing my late shift but i am supposed to be helping my best mate with some stuff and she's working thursday so...

oh i can rage alright. haven't you seen me in rant mode? well, i think that was it. but i can put on my customer services head and seethe on the inside most of the time... hee.

sitting down with my soup now :)

totally gutted. i have managed to GAIN 4.24lbs.

my cdc asked me to do a ketosis test, which i was happy to do. it wasn't particularly pink but then i have had 3 litres of water to drink today. she then apologised and said she mainly asked to gage what my reaction would be in case i'd cheated. ha. sneaky!! but i was in the pink. so the only thing she can think of is that it's totm looming. but 4LBS!! that's ridiculous. and i'm gutted.

i want to fall face down in a pizza and cry. what i'm going to do instead is mope around feeling sorry for myself. i don't even want to eat any of the packs i have got. hmph. although i need to have another one tonight. i know logically that the weight has to come off. that it has to be water weight. that doesn't make it any easier. i'm not getting weighed for two weeks and the temptation just to f*ck it off, eat pizza and make it up before i get weighed again is massive. but i know i'd only be fooling myself in the end. doesn't make me feel any better though.

Abz... i'm gutted for you!
just dont weaken though!!!!
 
good girl.
will have to keep each other on the up for the next 2 weeks
 
hey abz, im gutted for you hun. I know this is probably bad advice but maybe if you had tonight of? i dont mean go wild just have whatever you want and then just keep going from tomorrow. 2weeks exactly to wi. it also might give ur metablisim a wee kick. I know you dont want to eat but just an idea to put out there :) :hug99:
 
Hi Abz
I have just looked at your photos - can see a real difference I don't know what you are talking about. You are looking great and keep at it. I really feel for you this week - it must be water as you should be losing weight with your calorie intake. I don't know what to suggest apart from don't give into the temptation - think about what you have achieved already and keep going. The hassle of your shifts wont have helped and it is easy to give in and comfort eat when that sort of sh*t happens but good for you to keep at it. Keep posting - your posts give me and loads of others a real boost!xx
