Surfhunny's Countdown to Florida

MM I bought my mum one of those bubble mat things, I might have to borrow it from her. I had a lovely bath with a bath bomb my mum bought me from Lush yesterday. Now I'm in my toasty bed, but my hands and feet are freezing still.

Nikki I don't blame your mum for wanting to get out of there, it's so noisy all the time!! I asked my friend how she can stand working on the ward with the buzzers going off all night long. She said she's okay it's the patients trying to sleep she feels sorry for. Hope your mums home visit goes well so she can go home for good.

Tomorrow I'm going to see if I can drive. I've got to get to my physio appointment next week, my dads car is automatic so at least I won't need to use my left leg for the clutch but I do need to see if I can drive or I'll need to try and make other arrangements to get there.

My calf muscle feels like it's constantly bunched up and tight.... Like crampy that's the only way I can describe it.... I hate having to describe pain, the doc is A&E asked my to describe the pain.....don't think my answer "F@*king sore" went down to well with my dad :(

I'm off to watch Embarrassing Bodies to make myself feel better about my pretty normal but a bit heavy body.
 
Evening sal in bed huh!! i will be in 10 mins too. Anything to keep warm lol.!

sal how was likey lighty? with your mate? i was away so missed it.! lol
xx
 
Paddy spoke to her last week yay, the guy from the week before who'd picked the other girl when Carol was down to the last 2 sent Carol a note which Paddy read to her telling her he picked the wrong girl and wished he'd picked Carol lol. Not sure if it's tomorrow she gets picked but it's soon x
 
when's it on surf? i used to watch it and started taping it then cancelled it cause i couldn't remember what it was and couldn't be bothered to watch it. however, there was an ad on tv and i realised. it used to be on on a sat evening. it was funny.

scales are up and down like a yoyo this week. not really moving much since my last weigh in yet i've stuck to it and done my exercise. i think it looks like it really is time to move up. this means moving out of ketosis which i'm not looking forward to.
 
Yep it's on at 8 tonight on itv. I'm only watching it because my friends on it some of the girls (not Carol lol) are starting to irritate me!

I'm starting to get about a bit better now but that's only making me more frustrated! I keep dreaming I'm at the gym and can't run, no matter how hard I try :( not that I'm obsessing much lol. I'm terrified of it happening again. That's one of the main things I want to chat to the physio about.

Nikki do you know if there's still a sports physio at the gym? I might see if I can book some extra sessions either that or go back with my pt for a month so he can work me around my injury.... I don't know what's best so I guess I'll wait until Tuesday.
 
Yep there is. I also know a good chap in hartlepool that I use when I have done myself an injury. Body balance is the one I use. He goes to my chiropractors on a Monday morning. I use him when training for the great north run

Thanks I'll see what happens at physio on Tuesday and take it from there. This is going to sound silly especially because I work at the hospital etc but I just have this horrible feeling that the physio is not going to believe how much exercise I do and that I'm desperate to get back to it. I'm so bloody paranoid lol.
 
if you want a laugh and have sky.... turn to page 282!
 
Tomorrow it's my friends 30th and we're going out for dinner, I've ummed and aged about what to do, I'm going to go for the healthiest option, and skip dessert. I know I'll be knocked out of ketosis but I'm not too worried about getting back on track on Monday, I'm still trapped at home with nothing but CD in the house so I'll be fine lol.

Ha ha very motivating. What's with the arm sticking out?

Funnily enough I want some kettlebells but those two didn't exactly sell them to me.

:rotflmao:

they're a right pair. :D

Fit right in on uninspiring UKBL, they could be trainers lol. Look out for me at the gym....I'll be the one doing 'i'm a little teapot' squats with the kettlebells.
 
So many things to buy!!!! I want it all, but doubt any of it will fit yet, need to get a zumba body first lol!
 
i do not have a zumba body still. i have bra bulges and if i wear tank tops i bulge out at the sides :( so i'm thinking of a more enclosed top when i come to buy one. i also think the trousers/pants are very low on the waist. i have a high waist and if they sit on my hips they'll fall down. :eek:
 
I love racer back tops but they're all tight around the tum and I have too many spare tyres to even think about it yet lol. One day..,.
 
Hmmm I've got my thinking head on again and that's never usually a good thing. Being off sick has definitely made me realise who my real friends are, sad but true :( My close friends (3 of them) have rallied round with offers to bring me things, take me out and generally stop me going insane. And I'm really grateful for them.

BUT I have not heard a single word from any of the girls I went to Vegas with. They know I'm off work and why but not a single one of them has even so much as texted or sent a message on Facebook or anything. I don't want pity or sympathy but a quick "how are you?" would be nice.

These are girls I spent a fortune to go on holiday with for one of their 30ths. I guess it also just confirms what I started feeling while I was away with them..... I started feeling like I was gatecrashing their holiday.... Even though before we arranged it we'd go out as a group etc, while I was there I felt like I was making up the numbers.

Since we got back I've pretty much been left out of all plans they've made to go out etc. It's just plain odd! In the past it would've destroyed me, but I've got a bit more self-confidence now so I just think it's sad. But I really don't need friends like that! I have my small group of close friends and my family (& of course my minimins family) and I'm grateful for them. I don't need to have millions of friends to feel accepted. The sad thing is that they were my link to single life... My best friends are all married with small children and don't go out.

It's not all bad, because people I never dreamed of have been in touch asking how I am which is nice.

God I shouldn't be allowed to think at this time of night, it's enough to make me reach for the wine and chocolate, fortunately there is none in the house and I can't get out to get any lol.

i've found this. holiday make and break friendships, even relationships lol.

make the most of your best friends help and those that don't rally round are not much of a friend to you. maybe they feel uncomfortable in 'helping' you but at the very least i'd have expected a text or two saying hope you're feeling better and not too bored. the some gossip etc i find contact difficult but texting easy.

i'd love to wear racer back tops. i'll have to try again. i've no problems on the other area of my body just my bra bulge but then i buy heavy duty running bras that make sure i hardly move at all. i hate it when you see the girls running at the gym and they've not got the right bra and they look like they're going to get hit in the face with their boobs. :)

this is what i wear for running
