    Beanie I was expecting somewhere near or after then - just wanted an idea of when it might be so I plan a few things into my life - just fed up of things being on hold.....again. I seem to have spent lots of time over the years not being able to plan due to hospital appointments/admissions for one or another of my family....that sounds really selfish....I’ve actually very thankful for the treatment we’ve all received.

    Lost a pound today - back to where I was at Christmas now.
    Dh has been taking about that special holiday we should have had last year for our celebrations but with hospitals etc was put on hold. If I can get the op done in April/May it could be feasible.... it’s given me a whole new focus on the weight loss ;)

    Pleased to hear you have an idea now of when the op will be.

    Well done too on the weight loss - as you say a holiday later on in the year could be just the ticket to keep you on the SW straight and narrow. :)

    Good to have a focus for the weight loss. Hopefully your op will be done and dusted as soon as possible xx

    So I’ve been up since 4 am - a really nasty tummy bug. I’ve been managing boiled water but that’s about it for today. Just beginning to feel a bit more normal. At least it’s a NSD.
    Can’t believe my financial month is nearly over - hopefully the total won’t be too bad on my cc. I don’t feel I’ve spent a lot but not been recording it this month. Sometimes the little things can add up. Will do some number crunching tomorrow.
    Recommended a friend to my gym - so £50 voucher will be coming my way in a couple of weeks to spend in the restaurant - I’ll go with the friend whom I referred at some point. Looking forward to it as they do quite nice food.

    Boo to the tummy bug :( Hopefully just a 24 hour thing. Always best to keep a spending record as it's frightening how the little things add up.
