Bostik's Finally Doing It :)

Wow, you look so diifferent. And that was a whole staone ago. We need some new pics hun. xxx
 
Thanks hun.

For the last month I have just been ill and getting worse and worse. At the beginning I was making it to the gym like once a week just about. But now it is so bad I can just about make it down the stairs. Think my losses are gonna slow down now cos I am barely moving at all. Proper feel like eating like crap as well. Really hope I am better soon :(
 
Sounds like you need to see a Doctor hun. I don't think it sounds like a normal cold.
Don't worry about hitting those big numbers, your health is more important at the moment. :)
 
I've been. I really don't feel like they listen to me. At the moment they are too busy figuring out why some foods still make me throw up. So when I mention these other symptoms they just sort of ignore it, I feel. Got a breath test and an ultrasound done of my tummy to do with the food thing so waiting for those results to come. If they don't help I am gonna have to go private. I am sick of not being able to do anything.

In better news, got on the scale today to see how slow the losses would be...I've already lost 2.2lbs and I only weighed in on Friday. I've also eaten food like battered sausage and chips and bbq yummies. Very close to me calorie allowance. So doesn't make sense. Only thing I can think is I have started taking vitamins since Friday. Maybe they have made an effect? We'll see if it stays off for Friday weigh in!
 
Let's hope the results come back soon with some answers. You must be really fed up. Least the scales are looking good :)
 
The issues I have been having turned out to be a stomach infection. Got a whole load of pills to take for that over the next week. Apparently everything else will get better too after that is sorted? I am doubtful but fingers crossed!
 
Hopefully you'll be feeling much better in a few days. Its good that they found something to treat :)
 
Down 2.4lbs this week! :D Dunno how that happened even though I have been in calories cos I have been in bed most of the week except to go to the doctors! I set my MFP to a 1.5lb loss a week so shouldn't be so much more! Very strange, but I am not complaining! :D
 
well done on the loss.

Sorry to read about your tummy problems, fingers crossed the meds get it sorted quickly for you and you get back to normal.

xx
 
Thanks guys :) The only sucky thing is my calories are getting closer and closer to 1200 lol! On 1280 now. Gonna be hard when it gets to 1200!
 
Hope you start to feel better soon hun. Well done on the loss.
I know what you mean about the cals. Thats the one thing I hate about ccing, as you loose weight, your cals go down!! :)
 
It's a bit easier for me cos I am totally not a breakfast person. If I do eat breakfast on the random occasion, I'll feel starving all day. So I only really have to spread my cals over lunch, dinner and snacks. Fingers crossed, should be able to manage, but if not I may move my weight loss goal to 1lb a week to make it a bit more flexible.

Or I may start eating back exercise cals when I get to 1200. See how it works.
 
Mmm just made some pasta. I've cut the portion size right down to 40g now. I'm so full with it as well! Dunno how I used to eat so much more!

Also wanted garlic bread. So decided to try and make my own lol. Got a slice of bread, about 5g light marg and chopped up some garlic. Mixed the marg and garlic and spread it on the toasted bread. So yum! Mine was with normal medium white bread so came to 115 cals but if you had the lighter cal bread it would be less. And its like a whole slice of bread, not just a tiny bit that you could have from like the normal shop garlic bread. So glad I tried it lol :)
 
Liking your garlic bread idea!!!! Well done on the weight loss :)
 
1.2lbs down this week :)

Really pleased with that cos its been my TOTM so the scales have been showing STS. Was really getting me down actually. So decided to start taking measurements too from today. Just so I have other stuff to look at when it happens again.

I'm also getting more and more worried that I'm gonna plateau. On MFP there's always a thread popping up about someone who has and needs help getting out of it. And people always reply with everyone goes through it, etc. My losses have been really good so far. Only had smaller losses or STS when it has been TOTM. Think if I suddenly stopped losing, I'd sorta mess up. Dunno, been on my mind a lot lately.

Also, I think I think about my weight too much. I've been ill the last month and pretty much have been in the house cos half the time I'm getting light headed just standing up. Fainted the other night and was in A&E. He thought it was my low iron, but I dunno cos I've had that for years. Anyhow, cos I've not been doing much, I notice I spend a lot of time thinking about my weight loss. Bit weird.
 
Oh and I have now lost 20% of my starting weight loss :D
 
Hey, well done on the loss.
Sorry you are so ill at the moment. I was hoping you would be getting better, but it sounds like things are still pretty awful?
Know what you mean about the old weight loss on your mind. I think about it constantly. Everything I do and say seems to have something to do with weight loss!!
Keep your chin up hun. :) x
 
Yeah, it's a bit weird how much I think about it!

Still not well. Last night I developed purple rashes on both arms on the bend of the arm if you get me? Like the front part of the elbows. Apparently also anemia related when my mum googled it. Proper itchy and dry. It's driving me mad now. I am taking my iron medication (which, sorry for TMI but, is giving me problems going to the toilet! The flipping doctor suggested taking them with laxatives!) but it just all seems to be getting worse. Mum is saying we should go private to see if they'll be any more help so considering that now.
