Surfhunny's Countdown to Florida

I still set my alarm for 9am because if I didn't I'd sleep all day long, I'm terrible. Its because I seem to go to bed later and later. I think it's because I'm not doing much during the day so I feel like I should set an alarm, or I'm in danger of becoming nocturnal :D

I've just been watching Embarrassing Bodies and a couple of years ago I had an itchy rash like the one on tonights episode, I'd been prescribed antihistamines for a different type of itchy rash on my hands, which is caused by heat and is pretty much limited to my hands. But then I got this other rash all over and it was horrible, the GP thought it was because I'd been on CD and was introducing food my body no longer recognised, but after a lot of trips to the Docs it turned out it was the antihistamines I'm allergic to. Typical of me, being allergic to the very thing they use to treat allergies.

Ha ha nothing to do with diets so far in this post. Just the programme remind me about my own allergy.

Hopefully by tomorrow night I should be back in ketosis. Today has been okay, not hungry like I was yesterday. I've had an SS+ day today and will again tomorrow, purely because I've got cottage cheese that needs using up, so I'll finish that tomorrow and continue with SS.

Feeling positive, I've done the first of the tasks set by the diet book, and that's to write down all the advantages of losing weight. I have to read these cards twice a day and more if I get any negative or sabotaging thoughts.

Tomorrow I have to choose my diet and back-up diet. Clearly CD is my diet and SW will be my back-up. Not sure why 2 diets will find out tomorrow I guess. Keep you posted.

I'll definitely keep you updated with how I get on with the book. It's interesting so far. There's 14 days worth of tasks to do to prepare you for starting a diet on day 15 but it's okay to start on day 1 even if you're already dieting. Apparently it's important to do all the tasks in order or the process won't work.
 
The destruction has begun!!! Dad showed up at 10 this morning with the steamer and the wallpaper is all but gone....then the tiles are coming off (hopefully). I don't know what possessed the people before me to paint the bathroom orange to match the suite - a little tangerine dream lol. Glad it was papered over when I moved in :D be even more glad when it's all sparkly White suite and tiles.

Buh-bye nasty orange :D

This was taken a few months after I moved in, slightly better with the wallpaper but still grim.

I'm so pissed off I could cry!!! I've hurt my leg again :( I was just stepping into the bath and felt it 'go'. I'm sat with an icepack on and leg raised, I hope to god it's not as serious. It's not as painful but where I was able to put my heel down and walk fairly pain free, it's now sore :( I hope it's not going to be a massive set back, I'm not sure I can cope with much more time off work :( I am gutted :( :( :( :( :(

After 2 hours of ice and elevation my leg is not as bad as I first thought, its not the site of the tear that's sore, it's below and no where near as painful as the first tear so I think I've just pulled something a bit lower down. At least I'm at physio next week so I'll mention it but i don't think it's much to worry about! Im bloody useless!!

I'd totally forgotten tonight is the night my friend gets picked on Take Me Out. I was going to watch Amityville Horror but going to watch Take Me Out instead :D
 
I was thinking you hadn't mention it for a while. I'll be keeping that on then once Ant & Dec finish. I read in the paper today that one of the guys on tonight is gay?! He's a drag queen. What's he doing on there then? Freee holiday and tv coverage me thinks!

Ooh Carol didn't mention that... Be worth watching :D
 
Mind you it was The Sun!
 
I keep looking at the girls to see if there's any manly ones!

I wish I could remember the guys name who picks Carol.
 
This has to be him!
 
I'll kill her if it is because she didn't tell me he was south African, I love South African men!!

Mind he is a player!! Bad boy, Carol is not the wrong choice!!
 
And there he is!!!! Dear god, why?????? Why come on in drag, guarenteed to turn the lights out!!!
 
I know stupid boy!!

I've got a rumbly tumbly again!!! It's so annoying, gurgling away. I feel hungry but I'm trying very hard to ignore it!!!
