Hello, hello, hello...
I'm back, I'm still alive! So, I have a confession to make. Last Wednesday morning I was in A&E! I had the most horrible thing ever. A kidney stone attack. It started to happen around 3.30/4am where I was just lying in bed & I told Colin that I was ok (in agony) but ok. I didn't want to make a fuss. Anyway, after a long time in pain, I ended up on the kitchen floor in my pants whining at Colin for an ambulance! Anyway, he took me in, and we sat there doing wee tests/blood tests etc and they couldn't find anything and said it was most likely kidney stones.. great. I've been ok since, but haven't seen any stones yet - if I get the pain again.. I WILL be going to the docs and asking for a scan! That's the only way they can find out something is up!
Sooooo... to cut a LONG story short here's a list of some of the foods that I had every day since Wednesday (prepare to be shocked)!!!
WED: After A&E - A HUGE local bakery bacon bap (with ketchup) & Dr Pepper (full fat) & half a cherry bakewell slice. Cadbury Double Decker. Aldi chocolate buttons, Pink Wafers (ate half the pack in two days) & a Choceur Almond (huge) chocolate bar (YUM)! That night, a Chinese (Chicken Char Sui & Egg Fried Rice) - full fat Dr Pepper again & possibly a Pepsi, lol.
THUR: I don't remember what I had this day but it included the pink wafers, some chocolate and that night I had a take-away Chicken Tikka Korma & Pilau Rice from the Indian. A full fat can of something (pepsi I think).
FRI: We went to the cinema, on the way I had a prawn mayo buttie from the garage & some jelly tots. In the cinema I ended up having a Large sweet popcorn (we stayed for two movies) I had water with them, haha. That night we hosted karaoke & I ended up having a sausage bap (from the late shop afterwards at 1am) along with a Bounty ice cream, Cadbury double decker & a full fat ribena.
SAT - We went to morrisons for a 'healthy shop' & I ended up getting some Strawberry Shortcake slices & some yum yums (doughnut twists). That night I had a burger from the local takeaway, with cheese and ketchup & full fat pepsi/coke.
SUN: Think I had a bag of Doritos(?) That night we did karaoke again & I had a cheeseburger AND small 7" cheese pizza & a full fat pepsi.
MON:Rest of the Pizza for breakfast (lol) erm, later that day I had some more strawbery shortcakes (2) That night a take-away cheeseburger with onions.
THUR: I was good ALL day yesterday (back on plan) until the evening, where I had no tea so ended up having half a big bag of Doritos with some sour cream and chive dip and then a strawberry shortcake & two yum yums & a can of full fat coke.
The good news after all this.. is that I am the lightest weight I've been so far! On Wed, I weighed myself dreading it (because I hadn't weighed myself all week). I couldn't believe it, I was heavier.. but not by a 1lb.. it had just increased a little (this was on the Wii - which is the meanest of scales)! The kitchen ones still showed between 10st 11lbs which is AMAZING considering HOW much I'd had. So this morning I decided to step on the Wii again & to my absolute surprise I had LOST a pound! & showed up as 10st 10lbs (the lowest I've been in a long, long, long time). We obviously had last THUR weigh in day off after my A&E ordeal but we ARE going to the weigh in tomorrow & the bonus is that it is in the morning so hopefully I should be ok.
The last few days though, I have been on plan (give or take a few doritos, and my recent addiction of yum yums/strawberry shortcakes)! Today for example I've had 2 x chocolate weetabix with skimmed milk, 1 x Alpen light, 2 x green tea, 1 x jacket potato with prawns & big salad & I ended up having ONE yum yum! So not too bad, haha. I think after the A&E thing I just felt like a blow out & I was especially craving burgers.. & it's out of my system now. I think I've been super lucky with the weight too, considering I haven't been moving (exercising either). It IS my birthday on Monday, so I'm having a week off SW meetings & SW food (not going OTT) but I'm not going to be counting calories!
Also, the other good news is that I went to TK Maxx tonight & bought a Size 6 top (yeah it was stretchy, but still)! I'd say I'm a comfortable 10 now
- I also bought a size 10 trouser & I am now a 29 inch waist - or should I say Hip, because that's where my jeans rest! I've always had wide hips.. I will have to take some official measurements, because that's one thing I never did. I have never been happier & it's all down to SW
