My journey to a debt free life

Work was ok yesterday,I spent quite a lot of time sitting down supervising different patients eating or who didn't want to be there so kept trying to escape. Luckily they paired me with a fit nurse so she did all the chasing 😀

I had a GP phone appointment this morning and was actually still in bed when she phoned 🙀I'm liking the convenience of not having to go to the surgery and having an appointment from the comfort of my own bed 😂 she thinks it's sciatica as you can still get it without back pain,my back is feeling really good at the moment and is probably the only bit of me that doesn't hurt so I don't know 🤷‍♀️She is going to refer me for physio if the waiting list isn't too long,in the meantime I have referred myself to the physio at work and they can see me on October the 27th so I just need to wait and see what the GP comes back with before I decide who to go with, I suspect work will be quicker. I've just got to take ibuprofen and try to rest it when I can which is easier said than done

Ive had a chilled day today just doing a bit of washing and taken B for a short walk. I've got to change my bed later and clean the bathroom but that's all the house stuff I'm doing today.

Ive got SW tonight so will find out if I'm any nearer to losing my half stone. My home scales are telling me I've lost weight but I'm not sure I trust them so we will see

Sorry I've been awol OBL. Good  luck for tonight at SW. I'm glad DGS1 enjoyed school. I had trouble getting taxis when DH was in hospital due to lack of drivers and walked home a couple of times (it only took me an hour and a half to walk!).

Hope you get the physio appointment through quickly.

Thanks SA I lost half a pound this week which I'm happy with because I haven't had a great week food wise......I think I pulled a Victoria this week 😂😂

Just caught up on your diary, what a shock for you all 🙀 I'm glad your DH is now on the mend xx

Thanks Milann, I don't think my GP will beat the service at work to be honest so will probably end up doing that, it will be a bonus if they can see me before the end of October 😊

Jobs done today include changing my bed and cleaning the bathroom. I also cleaned out the 🐓🐓but managed to drop their feeder which promptly shattered spilling food and broken bits of plastic all over their run. I did get it all cleaned up eventually and found a spare feeder in the shed so I have sorted the problem without spending any money. I think the plastic must have gone brittle in all the heat we have had because I've dropped one before and they usually  just bounce 🤷‍♀️

I lost half half a pound at SW and was pleased with that, I would have liked to get to my half stone but haven't had a great week food wise so I'm happy with the half. I haven't got any social things coming up before next weeks weigh in so I'm determined to lose that pound this week. I told my consultant last week that I want to be at target again by Christmas and I should really be able to achieve that.
I'm a bit sad about my lack of walking at the moment and I'm hoping to do more as the week goes on. I am still walking to the station in the mornings when I'm working but haven't been able to walk home after work. I have walked up and down my hill three times today though so that's better than nothing,I took B out twice which was for 15 minutes each time around the block then I walked there and back to my meeting which is 30 minutes. I'm happy with my 6.5 lb weight loss in 6 weeks though and I also bought another countdown tonight so next week I will get a free food planner to take me up to Christmas🎉🎉 Im also feeling more relaxed with the people in my group, they are a nice bunch of ladies so that helps, the consultant is lovely but a little prim for me as I'm quite naughty 😂 On my second weigh in she asked me if I was missing anything and just said food everyone laughed but she just changed to subject, I don't think she gets my sense of humour 😀and it's not helped by me listening to the Secret World Of Slimming clubs on the way to and from my meeting 😀

Anyway that's me updated for tonight and I now need to go to bed.My joints are playing up tonight so I'm seeking oblivion via a massive dose of painkillers. Tomorrow I'm working 12 -8 pm so can have a lie in in the morning 🎉🎉

Well done on the loss, that’s a great amount overall. I would have laughed…I miss food even when I’m not being that good 😁

Well done 👏 My last WW leader was like yours, I used to say some daft things in the meeting. I think she got used to me eventually 😆
