Chelsea Lou - The Ventura adventure, not a sinking ship!

[Chelsea Lou]

Oh Chels that's rotten. I wonder if the bug is responsible for slow loss... body hanging on to reserves to help fight the infection? Bet it's something like that. Hope the doc can help.

Shoes sound cool, what exactly do they 'lift and separate' though? Toes? Ankles? Take it easy if you are walking this lunchtime, a rest might be smarter if you feel really rough.

When I was ill last time on CD, my weight loss was almost non existent so this could be why.... hang in there and it will drop twice as much once you are well again. Hope you feel better soon xx

Update on the gross....

Saw my new GP for the first time this afternoon, a really nice lady and she looked up my nose with an instrument and gasped. She said she didnt know how I had coped so long, that it was blocked solid on both sides and seriously infected. I'm now on antibiotics plus a disinfectant/antibiotic cream. I did apologise for her having to look up my skanky nose by way of an introduction but that it could have been worse..explaining that a previous GP had met me for the first time and had to sort out a strangulated haemorroid (sp?)!!! She laughed

My guess is that when I got the bronchitis at the beginning of the year, the cold that followed infected my sinuses (as per usual) and I decided to let my body fight it rather than resort to antibiotics. My body must have had other ideas. So this infection has been about 5 weeks in the making. Hopefully I will be feeling much better in the next 48 hours, glands will stop hurting as well and won't be posting any more yukky stuff.

The shoes didn't arrived, so no walkies for me today.
@ Katy.....I don't care what they lift and separate..just as long as they lift and separate something!!! lol xxx

PS......food for thought about infection hampering weight loss. I may get a whoosh.. yay!!

Hey Chels... I got my sandals... I must live closer to the distribution centre. Tomorrow for you! (Oh, and I used the Pure website.)

[Chelsea Lou]

So pleased for you Mel and a bit fed up that mine didnt arrive but actually, do I really want to go walking tonight? As you have probably seen, got a nasal infection and just come back from the GP, maybe them coming tomorrow (please God) will be better.

What are your sandals like? Are they comfy? Are your buttocks now under your shoulder blades? xx

 

[MinnieMel]

LOL... They look like Birkenstocks. So, I like 'em. I dislike having the post between my toes. I bought brown... and if once I have been wearing them for a bit: I really like them -- then I may buy some black ones, too.

However, I am headed to San Antonio in April... so, I will see what is available there. I may save a little on the shoes, sandals, plus shopping is a major American pastime!

[Chelsea Lou]

I wouldn't make a very good American Mel, I hate shopping, even if its for nice stuff like clothes, shoes, handbags etc. Crowded shops do my head in

 

[Katycakes]

Ouchie Chels, horrid. Glad you went though, you need to get properly better, sounds like this doc knows what she's doing. No walking tonight, please rest & let the meds have a chance to work. Katy's orders.

[MinnieMel]

Ah... you have no idea. BIG MALLS, BIG SHOPS, BIG DRESSING ROOMS... no issues with crowds unless you are foolish enough to head out on Black Friday or some big promotional event.

And, when you are at goal... you will love shopping and dressing the "new" you!

You should come with me... I can teach you to enjoy shopping!

Hold on Mel.........I'll just get my coat and passport The American version of shopping sounds sooooooo much more pleasurable than the English version. People are so rude here, shutting doors in your face, not saying thank you when you hold a door open for them etc etc. I find myself getting "shop rage" Hate it.

Day 25 - On the 3rd day he rose from the dead

I know you all think I'm a bit barking anyway so I don't feel silly posting this...........no, not at all lol.

When I went into the bathroom this morning, my lickle spider, that I thought Jess had murdered on Sunday, was up on the ceiling. It was definitely THE one, not an imposter. Thinking back to the poor unfortunate one, he did look a little bit larger than my spider but I just figured he was thriving on my bathroom ceiling and perhaps grown a bit

Anyway, Jess.........you're off the hook lol. All this coming from an arachnaphobic of the greatest proportions. Yup, definitely losing it

[Chelsea Lou]

Or...........JC for short!!!

 

[MinnieMel]

How cool is that... a spider that has multiple lives just like a cat! Maybe he is a CatSpider and we can call him KC (for kitty cat... not Katycakes!).

MM

And... I'll bet Chels remembers KC and the Sunshine Band.

Flobble, flibble, wibble dibble


SS you said you are down at the Blackwater end of Cambers. I'm not far from the lovely park in Sandhurst that goes all the way down to the Meadows - ideal for jogging/walking/cycling and when we've done all that, we can play on the equipment. They've got some good stuff there Plus!!!! A lovely little cafe where we can re-hydrate with water and/or black coffee and totally ignore the lovely cake the old dears make and sell.

What say you?
