Day 49
Well, I did not think I would manage to get to 7 weeks, it seemed such a long way away when I started this journey.
The last couple of weeks have been challenging on so many levels, just had my daughter sobbing on the phone, she goes back to work tomorrow after her maternity leave. She's really stressing as her role has been Tupe'd over to a new company who have been really awful about keeping in touch. She has no job to go back to, so she has to apply online to any vacancy she sees when she starts tomorrow. What a sad state of affairs, nobody talked to her, her previous employer allegedly over paid her holiday by £1000 when the Tupe happened, during her maternity pay. The new employer is taking it back at £333 per month for 3 months, which is no fun when you have childcare to sort out for 2 children, train fares etc.
She can't get her payslip as they only do them online, and she can't get online till tomorrow, GRRRRRRRRRRRRHHHHHHHHHhh
Me
I have not had much chance to post my diary, so decided to restart.
Bit disappointed with only losing 2lbs last week, I know a loss is a loss, but really had hoped for more. Spoke to LLC she suggested it could be TOTM, not sure as I don't have periods any more. I have started to write down when I am having packs and how much water, looks like it averages at 4 litres per day.
Also told her I have increased my exercise a bit, swimming, so she said that is another reason I may not be losing so fast. Catch 22, reading other threads about the concerns of excess skin, I'm trying to start the exercise now. Have not cheated once.
I have gone back to water flavourings as I struggle to drink water. No bloating this time but gassy and noisy.
Yes the poo talk carries on here, I seem to go about every 6 days, have used dulcoease, which works but then continues on most of the day :cry: Feel like I need to go every other day........
Head is still swimmy and felt quite yuk for most of the day today, still taking the anti wobble tablets. Going to ring GP Friday if no better, that will make it best part of 6 weeks. Tinnitus is worse at the moment and driving me mad
Also this is stopping me exercise, I bought a Wii 2 weeks ago and have not managed to use it yet!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Have finally got a ketosis reading on my sticks, pink, maybe this week I will lose more?
Well, day 50 tomorrow, halfway to my first target of 100 days!
Went through my wardrobe today and have sorted a massive bag out for the charity shop, all too big! Felt really good. I now can get into 5 pairs of work trousers, I have been living and washing 1 pair for ages. Seem to be losing weight at the top of my legs, so jeans etc are looking odd, not sure what shape I will end up being? Went into River Island today and Monsoon and saw some lovely clothes I hope to get into later this year, can't wait.
Seem to be losing some of my boobs too which is great so long as I end up in proportion, start size 36JJ which is massive, hope they stop shrinking at about a C cup!
Last weekend was quite a challenge around food with daughter and grand daughters here, this is first time since starting LL that I have had food in the house and preparing it. Boy do I take my hat off to everyone that has to prep food and not eat it, it was hard, and found myself dreaming about food!!!!!!!!:sigh:
They have gone now, next challenge grand daughters birthday coming up in 2 weeks, party food around all day.
Have started reading The Beck Diet Solution, which makes sense, so hope to learn lots from there.
Well enough waffleing on, time for bed.
Hope everyone has a good WI, will check out your diaries tomorrow,
