TooFatKats diary of desperation ..(and hope)

Ok back on track today. Weight still the same fluctuating between 3 lbs but I guess that means I sts over Christmas which is good. I've hidden the chocs etc from my sight. Odd seeing as I didnt buy the majority of them!
Anyway the only bad day I've got planned is New Year's Eve when Chris and I will actually be alone so eating Chinese nibbly bits.
Emily goes into Nottingham hospital at 8.30 tomorrow morning which means leaving home at 7.00 to make sure we find the right ward. :( she's in over the weekend until Monday at least. They're observing her and deciding if they want to do any extra tests. So hopefully home for New Year's Day.
Ill have to plan my food today and take things for me to eat. I can only try my best I guess.

Kat you are doing so well, with everything you have going on with your daughter I know it can't be easy.
I hope things get sorted for your daughter it must be such a worry x x
 
Thanks lisa it is a worry but she's coping so well and always smiles through everything that she makes you think it doesn't matter anymore. She has found a way to deal with pretty much everything :) she's an amazing child

such inspiration can come from people so young!!!

hope you get through the next few days ok, and you are doing well. remember that!
 
Emily had bloods and lumbar puncture today. Thankfully the blood tests were incident free and very straight forward. Her lumbar puncture was pain free but needs to be redone as they couldn't get any fluid out. But at least she's not terrified now. They let her out on home leave for new year thankfully and now she went to a friends house for the night. My eldest went to London for new year with friends ( bit scared about that one) and my other daughter is at her boyfriends for the night. Which leaves hubby and I totally alone!! Although it was planned to be quiet. (We normally have a party New Year's Eve and a big family gathering New Year's Day) we've not had a quiet new year for 12 years and it feels really strange.

However, I'm enjoying it, I'm looking forward to 2013 in the hope that it's going to be a good one. 2012 has for various reasons not been a great year for us. And I'm hoping that next year will bring great things.

I'm hoping to be at whatever goal weight I decide is right for me. I'm hoping to be fitter and take part in a cycling challenge . I'm hoping my family acheive their goals and dreams. I'm hoping we all stay close as a family wherever we are. Im hoping new friendships will only deepen as time goes on .
Must stop bring philosophical I've not even had a drink! :) lol

I hope you all have a wonderful new year and your wishes and dreams will be fulfilled.
God bless you all xxxx

I hope 2013 is good for me too. For various reasons 2012 wasn't a great year.

Emily came home until Wednesday, they did more blood tests and a lumbar puncture yesterday and we've now got to wait for the nerve conduction tests and MRI.

My weight loss has been really slow this year . As if this morning I only lost 1 stone 2 lb. not great, too much plateauing going on. I really want to shift at least another stone. On the good side though I have lost another 13 inches of fat :) I love doing measurements, so much more worthwhile than scales alone.

I'm thinking if rejoining slimming works to see if the discipline works on my weight otherwise ill have to call it a day and I'm not quite ready to do that just yet

we are all here to help you which ever way you choose to lose weight...

i hope things go ok with the results for your daughter.. xx
 
Well done on your inch loss, that's fantastic. Glad that they let your daughter out for NY, hopefully they will get to the bottom of what's wrong with her soon x
 
Thanks ladies. Hope you had a good new year. We had an almost suprise visit from my brother and their newborn (5 days) old daughter. Oh she was so tiny! I'd forgotten how tiny and delicate they are. She's beautiful and I'm in love and broody. :) good job hubby's had the snip otherwise I'd be begging for another!

Have brought my old slimming world book to the hospital to reread on red and green days. Hopefully get it straight in my head. My body is really playing up recently. It's doing its own thing and I can't work out why. Was sick this morning but did have to take my strong ibuprofen last night night before bed but I don't know if it was the avid from that or the cream I had with my cake for tea . My stomach was a solid football before I went to bed though. The upside to having dairy allergy is that it gets rid of constipation! Sorry tmi but guaranteed to clear me out!

I'm waffling. Obviously too much time on my hands at the minute.

hun waffle away we are all here to listen (read) and make sure that you dont waffle the wrong way (to the waffles lol)

When the hospital get moving they really for it! Emily came out for new year having had an unsuccessful lumbar puncture. We went back in Wednesday and they did the lumbar puncture again and it worked also the MRI scan and the results were back as normal within the hour!! We were then allowed home and were given an appointment for Sunday for z nerve conduction test and an appointment with her consultant again on the 28th where hopefully we'll get results aNd an action plan of where we can go.

I Start back at sw tomorrow morning at 9.30. I'm going to buy the 12 week countdown which would take me to the Easter challenge I think. If this doesn't do anything I think I need to resign myself to this being my weight. But I'm praying for at least a stone more

Ohhh that's good, hopefully with your mind on loads of things the tome between now and the 28th will go super quick.
 
Ok the deed is done. I bought a 12 week countdkwn at slimming world. So that's it to Easter. I weighed 13:9.5 on their scales, that's 2.3 lbs heavier than mine but I was wearing clothes :) lol and I also started totm today so I've got that gain as well. Hopefully this means next week will show a reasonable loss. I've dug out the red and green book and will be having a good read and refresh tonight ready to start properly tomorrow. It's going to feel strange even though I know the plan inside out as I keep thinking ' fat content ' but now I don't need to Some brain retraining needed I think.

Yay welcome to the Sw club, I still do count the fat content in some things, hard to get it out of our heads when it's ingrained in x

It's good to keep an eye on your fats too..

ESP if you are taking the tablets, but if your not, then it's still good to have what you have trained your brain to think while on them still in there.. If you get what I mean.
