TooFatKats diary of desperation ..(and hope)

Were you expecting a gain for another reason except for clothing and timing?

I'm glad your happy with the overall result!
This loosing weight business is hard!! Xx
 
It was a stay the same at the docs which depressed me but at the same time set off a chain of events .
I'm having a bad time at work which isn't good and Wednesday if all came to a head and i ended up in tears all afternoon.
It's a long story but I have a allergy to green flowers which has got worse over the years. Recently it has been building up and up and not going in between doses. I have gradually been feeling more and more ill and also stressed .
I went to the doc on Thursday and I have 2 weeks off work to stay away from the cause of my allergy and stress. Lots of antihistamine to keep me doped and hopefully recover.
the doc also said that the reason my weight loss has slowed will bs because I'm not well. Which does explain a lot.
The question Is ' even though I love floristry and teaching do I want to leave? Can j keep being ill on a long term basis? Should I just leave work and cut my losses?
An added factor is that we have just started the fostering process so if we are accepted I would have to give up work anyway .
While I'm ill im going to save my xenical for later. I'm going to stay on here but not waste the tablets if I'm going to have z slow weight loss.
I'm not going to record on mfp as I don't want to think about food.

TFK, so sorry to hear things haven't been going smoothly for you. Have a couple of weeks away from work and counting calories is just what you need. I hope the 'break' helps.
 
Feeling a little calmer. Not taking xenical till feeing better. So am hoping to stay the same.
Feeling very dopey with the antihistamines but still aware of food. So trying to control what I'm eating.
I think I've decided that I'm going to resign from work. I cannot face going back there. I'll have leave if we get accepted as foster parents anyway so I'll keep my fingers crossed that we do.

Hope you feel better soon! Defiantly must be hard working with things your allergic to!
 
Bless you Kat i know it's been a tough decision for you. Hope the fostering thing goes through soon, I know it can take a while. I was referee for my friend this year & it's taken a year but she's had her panel been accepted & shouldn't be long til she's fostering.

Concentrate on getting yourself better xx
 
Thanks. They say it should only take 4-6 months! So fingers crossed .

Managed to lose 1/2 lb tonight. Which I was quite impressed with given the situation and TOTM to top it off. It's given me a mental boost though so will aim to be extra good this week and see what happens. I've had nearly a week off work now away from all the nasties so I
Hoping they won't be in my system for too much longer and can start losing more weight again.

Still feels like I'm living in a fog. Very weird. I keep reading what's going on on here just to keep me in the loop even though im doing very little myself at the minute . I know this will go and I'll be ok again soon its just such a strange feeling not being able to motivate myself to think about food or even care what's going on at work . I think I've just blanked them all out. Which I have to say I need to do but what I'm finding strange is that I don't actually care.
Never mind life goes on. Also got the first 2 foster care meetings on Monday and Tuesday . Hope they go well.

Good luck with the meetings let us know how they go xxxx
 
Foster care meetings went very well. Got accepted through to the next stage. Now it gets in depth and intrusive. Decided to go with the private agency rather than county council as the support systems in place are for the carer and the child and are readily available .

Good hear your through to the next stage :)
 
Thanks . I now have a new goal to work towards . It looks like I have a reunion at the beginning of June next year.
It's the UK reunion of the kids from the boarding school I went to in Africa when I was 13-15.
From seeing most of them on Facebook I know that they are mostly the same size and at all fat!
So j now have 6 months to lose 4 1/2 stone. Eek! :(
Better get my motivation out of hibernation then if I'm to get anywhere near it.
