LJ's Journey to be Slim by Sixty

[mo53]

Thanks doreen. working on a neglected garden sounds really hard work but very satisfying. I hope you enjoyed the over 50s club. I havent swam today. I had to do some jobs in town but then walked down to te harbour and drank coffee in the sunshine. LOVELY

Over 50`s was closed so went to the town and had a look around.l Bit of body magic!

I have just had one of my sisters on the phone because her 38yr old son had a horrific nosr bleed yesterday and was taken to hospital on blue lights. The hospital got it to stop and said t would need quarterising (spelling) the ENT Dept said they can only do it while it was bleeding and sent him home. He had another bad one while he was asleep, his partner had to wake him.. They with their gp at the moment. What my Val rang for was to see if I could stay with him overnight tomorrow and most of Friday. He is really scared as there are big clots too. Anyway, she is hoping it will not be nec now, don`t know what GP can do.
Val is concerned because he Husband had triple by pass last year and he has had small clots on the brain due to being put on heart bypass which has nowkilled some of his brain and he gets very confused and she don1t want to leave him on his own.

It makes me realise how well and fit I am compared to the others. I am 70 this year and am the second eldest, very lucky me so far. The rest are not well people.

It is such a shame that families move so far away from one another these days because it makes it so much harder to help each other.

My food for today

Milk for t and coffee
2 bananas. Beef & carrots from the freezer with 2 smalll McCain jackets for 2 syns and fresh tomatoes
Gravy grans say 3
5 Syns

May go and get weighed in the morning in case I end up going to nephew tomorrow.

The last 2 days I have been trying to counteract the naughtieness from when I got home Monday. Surprisingly I have not felt too hungry. Back to normal from tomorrow. Will get weighed in the morning, go to shop to get corned beef & pastry to make corned beef pies ready for Saturdays Cup Final in Peterborough. Guess I will have to have a couple of low days again.

Actually Mo you don`t seem to eat all that much. If I not on at the weekend you will know why. But will let you know what happens in the morning at weigh in. xx

Morning all, I am up simply because I think I have appointment to have my hair cut. My phone packed up couple of weeks ago and the appointment was on that. My hairdressers is not open mon and tues so will have to ring at 9. as my appointment would be at 9.30. Only a short walk down the road tho`.

My son DIL & children have been on hols since last Friday in Caister Norfolk and they have had some horrible weather. I think they will have good weather now until they leave Friday. My brother and his friend are in Hey-on-Wye and have had crap weather too. They are due home Friday.
Here today the weather is lovely and is supposed to stay through to next week. I think I have the children some of next week (school hols). Gosh! have booked the car in for service Tuesday, best change that.

Am sorry to hear Poppy is off school again. I reckon Mum & Dad are right, 1/2 a day may suit better for her.
Good walk for you - and of course Hubby was there - and roll on June so Poppy can have her op and then be able to start getting better. I know it is so hard when any child is unwell but a granddaughter is so special.

Have a good day and enjoy the weather and your food of course.

I am going to try and have another light day today. Was easy yesterday, let`s see how today goes eh.

Isn't it a pity when the weather's bad on holiday - we so look forward to them but I'm sure ur family all made the most of it!!

Hope u got ur hair appointment sorted??

Yes Poppy seems brighter today - so hope she's over the worst - they had the op date yesterday - June 17 - later than they'd hoped but at least we know now and there's a school holiday Whit week so another rest.

Poppy and her older sister Isabel wanted to stay over last night which is always lovely but I went to bed the same time as them as I was shattered!!

Yes weather has been lovely the last couple of days but a bit dull and cooler today but grateful it's dry!!

5 syns so not so bad. good luck with weigh in.

Yes 5 syns well worth it for crisps - I don't know how u manage on such low syns I think u said u were weighing daily this week - have u worked out ur weekly loss (confident u will have lost with ur low food intake!)

 

[Nanny Doreen]

Pleased to report lost 1lb this morning. That is 4.1/2 in 3 weeks.

Gonna have some lunch and cook those pies.
