Ah thanks ladies and thanks to the newbie posters too! Hope my ranting hasn;t put you off- I promise I am not normally this miserable!

So another Ts day under my belt. Slept from 11:30- 3:30 so I suppose that is better than nothing. Really starting to feel ill now from lack of sleep but hey ho.

So tomorrow I finish work at 09:00 then straight to the hospital for my pre-assessment at 09:30. Dreading it as know it will involve being weighed and being humiliated! Will ask them for their thoughts on the diet but then regardless will stop Exante on Saturday and try to be sensible.

Got my friend popping over in the afternoon so we are going to go for a swim so that shoudl be nice to help take my mind off things.

Trying to be positive but right now by biggest worry is mucking up this diet!!! Had 3 ebay parcels arrive today. Size 16 bikini fits on the pants but barely covers my nipples so don't think exante will fix that!! Size 14 dress way too tight on bust but size 14 Fat Face top fits like a dream! Why is sizing so odd! Tonight wearing size 22 tops and jeans????

Sorry for all my misery- I promise to cheer up soon xxx

Oh hyeah and for my last exante weigh in- should I do that on Sat am before I eat then weigh twice weekly from then in do you think???

 

[notsoskinnymarge]

I would WI on Saturday
I am not sure why you would WI twice weekly when you are off plan ...
Was there a specific reason for that thought ?
Or was ya just noising me up cos I'm not allowed to this week :cry:

 

[ladygaga]

hehehehehe Margie! I just thought whilst I'm eating to keep a closer eye on my weight in case I see huge differences and need to curb my habits...you think that's a bad idea??

Will be weighed no doubt at hospital tomorrow anyway so will have that reading and my one on Sat am.

Part of me feels very glad I started exante when I did. I'm struggling to think how I would have felt facing this at almost 21 stone!!!! Being 15 sounds a lot better. Just hope I am not too fat to anaesthetise!!!

 

[notsoskinnymarge]

Ah, well twice weekly sounds like a good plan then, so you can maintain

I dont think you will be too fat to anaethetise....
Weight loss surgery peeps are normally much heavier than what you were before you started Exante, and they still go under

 

[ladygaga]

Oh yeah- hadn't thought of that!

So how are your muscles? Are you in need of a bath soak?

 

[notsoskinnymarge]

Surprisingly, I'm ok
A teeny bit sore, on my shoulders and back at the waist.
I definatley know I have done exercise, I can feel it. Its a good sort of feeling

 

[ladygaga]

You are such an inspiration to exercise! i would never have started shredding if it hadn't been for you and Clair. I'm going to swim thurs, fri and Mon and aim to do exercise DVD's at the weekend until back to work properly on tues. xx

Do you live near water at all Gaga ?
The sea side, or river or something... A lido ;p ?
I always find walking near water really helps clear my head, more than anything else to be honest.
I dont know why it works for me, it just does
It may help you chick just now xxx

Sizing is cr@p makes absolutely no sense!!!
You must be shattered hun hope the pre op isn't too awful x

 

[ladygaga]

That is a nice idea Margie. Got a big river running through town with a couple of lakes in the park too. May well go and do that or have a bike ride along them as fancy dusting off my bike at the weekend. Thanks xx

Hush your mouth too fat at 15 stone!! You're talking crazy now!!

 

[notsoskinnymarge]

Good stuff
I would be interested to see if it works for you too
Or maybe I am proper bonkers

I lived in London for many years.... and returned home a few years ago, near the water.
I couldn't live in land again now. Ever !!

 

[ladygaga]

Thanks dusty- sizing is just all over the place isn't it! Just ordered some size 18 shorts off ebay as the fat face 16's will not go over my hips!!

Oh yeah I remember last Christmas I was wearing 16s and mum got me fat face pjs and the bottoms wouldn't even go up I was devastated

 

[ladygaga]

Think I definitely need to go underwear shopping tho! Having stripped off many times on Mon at the hospital no doubt I will have to do that again when I go in then every time I am followed up- that must deserve new undies in my books!!!
