Its already raining here sadly! Had hoped to have a walk, well will walk to the hospital from the car!

Hope you find your fil feeling better today Donna...shame about the walk.

It hasn't frightened me enough!...lol

Shall have to think of another tactic for you!

Raining here as well so our walk to Tesco has also been thwarted

I'm not one for walking in the rain either...especially not with the clumpy booty!!

Oh wow

I don't mind sweetner as you know

 

[janetelizabeth]

Thanks Cavegirl... I'll take a look.

Slept really well last night probably made up for night before.
Scales down another 1/4 - 10. 5.

 

[Jaffa Cake]

I've not weighed in yet

 

[janetelizabeth]

Hope today's a better day for you Jaffa...:bighug:

Joseph's still not feeling well, pains in his head, weakness in legs etc. He's waiting for a phone consultation call from the doctor.

I made that last week using coconut necter instead of sweetner/sugar. It was nice breakfast treat. My pic is in chocko's meal thread.

How many cals in the coconut necter? Maybe agave is similar too in cals, I have used that in the past.

 

[Jaffa Cake]

Poor Joseph let us know how he gets on

 

[janetelizabeth]

Thanks Jaffa,
He's just spoken to the doctor and as we suspected no referral was made on the 22nd January for him to see a neurologist... So the doctor said as the waiting list is quite long he's advised him to contact our private company Benenden to see if they can help. Yes they will see him so GP has to now do a referral and then he can be seen. Could be a few weeks but quicker than a waiting list. This healthcare isn't anything fancy...just what they call a 'back-up' for the NHS provision; costs £8.14 each per month.

 

[Jaffa Cake]

I've never heard of an NHS back up provision so that's good

How awful of them not to do the referral though.

Still dry here so going to nip out post my sisters birthday card and get stuff in for dinner

Although I'm not even sure what I'm eating for lunch yet !

Just as well Joseph spoke to a Doctor today, are he wouldn't have known that the referral hadn't been done!

It is certainly very popular at the moment, so many pictures of it on IG !

To be honest Lynne we're not happy with that surgery. The head of the surgery seems very aggressive... When we returned to the UK we registered with them because we moved into a maisonette one road away. At our first appointment he seemed anxious to get us on statins and change Josephs meds and put him on blood thinners etc. Because we are both OK on what we were taking we declined...he didn't like that at all.
So we've decided that after this latest episode that we're going to change surgeries, we have actually moved much closer to the surgery I went to from 1974 - 1994.

Sorry to hear that you and Joseph have had a bad experience with your doctor, its really not nice.

My first day back after the holiday was okay. I really don't know if I have been 'good enough' to be back on target tomorrow, but 'fingers crossed' big style! My scales were not at target tonight
and even with the usual 1lb lower the Slim World scales are I will still not be at target. Have to keep on being sensible for rest of day and tomorrow too. What will be, will be!

 

[janetelizabeth]

Thanks Donna..yes best we change.

Hope you can turn it around by tomorrow's weigh in...but you have been on holiday from work so I'm sure eating was different. My daughter mostly works just term time and I know it's always difficult for her too.

Joseph opened the Christmas Dundee cake!!! Oh it smelled sooo good but not a crumb entered my :ignore: Still got a whole (unopened) tin of shortbread biscuits and then we shall be done!!
