HELLO EVERYONE WHO REMEMBERS ME!!!!
Well it's with mixed feeling I am back
And also after a lovely note from a very fine looking DIS!!
So Let me tell you what has been a happening to me over the past few months.....
As you know I was doing very well on CD. I can honestly say I endorse CD to the hilt!!!! However back in the summer, I sawa specilist as I had been poorly bad for some time, and after some testing it was found out that I had a chronic auto immune disease of my liver, ell two diseases really...my immune system sees my liver as foreign material (like in a transplant) and attacks it causing liver scarring....
One day I will probably have to have a transplant, but for now It just means I sleep a lot, and have aches and pains like I'm 90
When my doc found out aout CD, he forbade it
not because it is a bad diet... IT ISN't, BUT AS YOU KNOW IT IS ONLY FOR THE HEALTHY..... He said that my liver just wouldn't be able to cpe with the ongoing sudden changes in my body and the extra work load it was having to contend with, one of the reasons my condition had come to light as it had flared up!
So I got really don.. wrote my will
was sure I was going to die! and then over the last couple of months realised that although I can't do anything about my illness, I can still do something about my weight! So after comfort eating for the last few months eating food such as chocolate that I don't even really like! I am now back to where i was before.....
Soooo, Slimming World, here I come! I know it will be slower going with my medication but I am not going to give in, I am just goign to extend my goals.....
So to Dis, Sam, Kazza and all of you who used to support me so heavily.... I AM BACK... I am going to start posting in the slimming World threads and will keepup my diary here! Just need to find my scales, build up the courage to stand on them, and sort me a new ticker!
Good luck all you girls (and fella's ) who are still hard at it!
