Constantly dizzy- back from the wilderness

Morning All


Well I had another ropey pain filled night again.....resorted to the meds :( Im so glad Its today I have my neurology Appointment for my Botox as the Neuralgia & spasms are getting pretty bad again so Im in need of a 'top up' :ashamed0005:

I did manage to eat some of my tea last night though.....but the electric shock pains through my face & head were getting so severe I just had to leave it in the finish up and admit defeat :(

Anyway....a few days & hopefully I will be pain free again for another 3 -4 months so alls good.

Today is going to be a GREEN day as its WI, and Im having to travel 1 1/2 hours each way to the hosp, and I cant really eat much that involves a lot of effort at the mo :eek: so it looks like this

B oatso golden syrup HEB+1.5 1/2 HEA 1/2 HEA for teas rasbs

L ?? appointment is at 1.20 prob a banana when I come out

T yog before WI ?? after WI maybe pasta n sauce and rasbs & yog
 
Just a quick one from me tonight, still feeling a bit 'off' Had My Botox today. They've given me a bit on the other side too to keep my eyebrows level so I dont have a lopsided appearance :eek: Hopefully it will start working in 2-5 days and the pain from the neuralgia will stop.....It hurts to touch my face just to wash it sometimes at the moment and brushing my teeth feels like I'm plugged into the mains electric supply when I get a spasm :(

Anyway ....... The good news is Ive weighed in at class.......2lb loss :D now I'm not being funny but I've not eaten particularly well the last couple of days with missing meals on these painkillers, and had a mahooooosive blowout meal on saturday :eek::eek: sooooo I cant help thinking that this is some kind of 'fluke' so I'm treating it as such and being EXTRA good this week in case it comes back and bites me on the Ariss next week :jelous:;)
 
Wow well done on a 2lb loss this week Dizzy, I'm impressed. Went a little off plan myself last night so I'm thinking I'll have a gain this week :( - my own fault though. Your family sound like mine - big foodies, always have been especially my dad. I'm being good with the syns to counteract last night (and the coming weekend when I will no doubt go over again). So I wish you and me both some low syn will power this week x
 
Been MIA as I had a Really nasty migraine Wednesday again so tried out the new tryptan from pinderfields hospital (the last one didnt help) It worked for an hour & half then came back worse than before

back to see the nurse specialist with the neuro team on the 4th of May so hopefully they can tweak the meds to find something that works.

Well I weighed in last night 0.5 ON

Bit disappointed.....but not totally devastated as I did say last weeks 2lb loss must have been a 'fluke' as it certainly wasnt deserved with the naughty blowout meal at the weekend - then missing so many meals with having the neuralgia pain. Im just SOOOOO glad I didnt get complacent though and think that I could get away with that 'silly' meal AND have a loss like I did ;) otherwise I wouldnt have been quite so good this week.....and no doubt my gain would have been a whole lot more!!!

Im also thinking that the couple of RED days that I did where I had wm rolls as both my HEB choices (when I craved bacon sarnies
tongue.gif
) did me no favours.........me & bread do not go well together.....I have always known this

Hope everyone is ok.....Its a lovely day here, might even be nice enough to get the BBQ out for tea :) (and that means using a few syns in a couple of vodkas as a treat me thinks) Happy Friday!! :D

food diary to follow
 
hey babe!! sorry about the migranes!! :(

BBQ sounds like a great idea, i dont think i can do one in the flat thou!! lol Its lovely here too!!! I hate being stuck in the office when its soooooo lovely outside!!

Dont worry about the 1/2lb on as you said you could have had a mediocure (SP) week this week and then had a bigger gain cuz of the blip last week so all in all i think its a triumpf, besides if you go for a big wee that 1/2 will be off so its nothing to worry about!! haha

Hello world!!

Right Im Back :wave_cry: Ive not been posting much.....or updating my diary, ad my migraines have been a pain in the Aris recently so Ive not been on the laptop so much in an effort to not 'trigger' them.

Anyway I'l try be a bit more frequent than I have (it keeps me on the straight & narrow to be honest) and short bursts on here should be ok.

So the latest news
I lost 2lb this week
smiley-happy036.gif
so Im 3lb away from my 2.5 stone shiney ......I can almost smell It .....and Im soooo determined for a 100% week. I seem to get a good loss one week then odd half pounds here and there, so it feels to have taken forever to get to here :rolleyes: (doesnt help that I put 11lb back on in mexico like :D:p, so Ive kind of lost that twice now :eek:)

Anyhow Im thinking of really trying to up the superfrees A LOT this week and Im going back on EE I think with a couple of red days.

I might not be able to get on EVERY day to post my food diary (depends on how my head behaves, Im due back at pinderfields on 6th may to review my meds) But I will be popping in definately having a dance on your Diaries on WI days still x x
 
Well done, Dizz.
I was dancing, and the pompoms were doing their stuff, so I'm glad it was successful.
So it's full speed ahead for your next shiny. Go for it!
(I've only just realised that I've got only 1.5lb to my next shiny too. I'd been so focussed on target that I'd almost forgotten there's a nice shiny in between me and there. So I'm hoping for that this week, and target next week. That would be pretty exciting, wouldn't it?)

So - you dance for me on Tuesday, and I'll shake my pompoms for you on Thursday. Deal?
 
Just a little update on my Diary.

Ive had a 'mixed weekend' on the SW front :sigh: not through naughtiness......through another effing tooth absess (well this is what I think it is :cry:) woke up early saturday morning with a throbbing face and couldnt brush my teeth properly without a whole load of pain....and bleeding gum :eek: phoned the NHS emergency dentist line to be told I couldnt get seen anywhere local until today,:mad: so Ive managed to get into my own dentist today anyway.

sooooo eating has been rubbish....soup & mash, yoghurt, soft veggies, but this has only happened when Ive been awake as the pain has been so bad Ive had to take the nasty Morphine tabs that I have for my face spasms :( Its something to do with my wisdom tooth (or around that area) and it bloody hurts :cry:

Anyway.....at least its kept me off the naughty stuff, Its *week looming and Im starting to crave sweet things quite badly :eek:

Right Time to go get ready - OH's mum is picking me up for the Dentists bless her :)
 
another quickie from me
(still limiting my time on the laptop until I go back to pinderfields for my meds review so I dont aggravate the migraines too much)

Well the wonderful AntiBs for my elephant man type poorly tooth face are working *does very happy dance* and Im not in pain this morning :D still cant bite down properly hard.....but hey who cares!!.....I will be able to eat more than soup & mash if I go careful ;)

WI tomorrow Ive had NO NAUGHTIES, and stayed well within syn, averaging 8 per day, but its *week so dunno what tomorrow will bring.

Be good everyone :)
 
I've been shaking and shaking those namby pamby Southern pompoms, Dizz - surely you can let me out of my misery now???
 
Flipping *week........0.5 gain :sigh:

BUT I know its not from naughty food or anything other than plain old water retention - it happens every month (though I'm extremely lucky to occasionaly pull off a sts or a magical tiny loss now & again) so I'm not upset by it......Im just hoping I get a super guddun next week lol !!;)

Speaking of *week....its not yet appeared but Its imminent, I'm moody as hell and shovelling the feminax down today for the griping (pity they dont work on the cravings for malteser bunnies- I soooooo want one :eek: )

Off now to sit outside and do alot of nothingness ;) x x
 
I survived Easter without a teeny tiny bit of chocolate entering my tum!!!! :angel09: :bunnydance:


now for the more realistic version of events, I had another migraine on saturday evening/early hours Sunday, so that really did help keep me away from the sweet brown stuff yesterday:rolleyes:

BUT I still feel rather virtuous because it was Easter & I am in the middle of raging PMT :sigh: so I'm doing a victory dance anyway LMAO :banana dancer:

Got to go shopping today when my OH gets back from golf.....I just know the supermarket will be full of 1/2 price chocolate eggs :eek: NOW THIS WILL BE A CHALLENGE :wave_cry:
 
You can do it, Dizz!
Well, you're allowed a little bit of chocolate: it's ok up to a normal syn level.
And particularly if you start the dancing for me today, and keep it going till tomorrow - that'll be so much body magic that you'll need a bit of chocolate just for the necessary energy!
