    OOh yeah i'm watching it now. Did anyone watch the Hugh Fearnley Whittingstall one as well??

    Thanks for all of your encouraging comments r.e the gym as i said i'm just happy that i'm doing something and as BB suggested i am planning to increase general walking outside (if it ever stops raining) as i live in an incredibly hilly area so it is perfect for power walking! There is also a nice big grassy area kind of near me where there are football pitches and (again) when it is a little warmer and dryer and my fitness levels have increased a bit i am planning to have a little jog around....maybe walking fast-ish actally my knees joints are terrible!!

    I made a nice chicken stirfry tonight and i am absolutely STUFFED i'm starting to feel fuller on a smaller portion size now!:cheesy:
    Goal weight....lighter than when I started :D

    ps I put my iPod on charge earlier so I can take it to the gym...:T...bit scared about overdoing it but will try to be Miss Sensible. That treadmill will be calling me saying 'Run Bails, run!' Failing that, I'll take myself for a swim :j

    Gym!!! when this suddenly appear??? Twas only this afternoon you were having (a justified) stampet at not being able to go. Great news anyway - I am completely confident that you won't over do it. Too much to lose. Everthing to gain by gently gently does it :D .Look forward to hearing how much you enjoyed your sojurn into normal world.

    Has suggs whipped it out yet and got it up yet?
    I try to take one day at a time, but sometimes several days attack me at once
  • is any nuts good for you, I only seem to like pistachios.

    Good work there Raphael :D

    BB thanks for your post and no of course I didn't think you were implying anything. That's the second internet hug I've received today - never had one before and now two come along at once :D You guys know me well enough now that if you do spot me going off the rails, you'll tell me in no uncertain terms ;) Anyway hugs right back to you BB, because you're such a trooper dealing with your own problems daily and still finding time to help us lot out.

    Things should be better for me in a couple of days, meanwhile it's not ALL bad news. I put in energy-efficient light bulbs all over the house today, had my loft insulation redone and as a result of the clearout I have the most organised loft I've ever had! Just a few archive boxes up there hardly taking up any space!

    Bails - have fun at the gym! I'm confident you won't overdo things, you know better than that! Report back please :D (Now I've just pressed refresh in the other browser window as I type this, and BB has said almost exactly the same thing so I'm going to look unoriginal).

    Bluecorn... are you sure you're in the right forum ;)

    Well, evening meal tonight was pizza and chips from the dodgy pizza shop, and I'm not sorry (but I will be in the morning)

    Didn't get time to eat since early morning - around about teatime I had to take MrsA to the doctor who immediately sent her to A&E as she couldn't breathe. It turns out with not being able to move her plastered leg, she got a Deep Vein Thrombosis clot which has now moved up to her lung, and she's now being treated for a pulmonary ambulism. That's as well as I understand it anyway. She'll be having daily injections in her stomach to thin her blood out for the time being and also on tablets for the next six months or so!!!!! She may even have to have her operation postponed, the one to take one of the pins out of her leg.

    So having not eaten from 10am-10pm, I made very short work of a massive pizza and chips. Also, after a day like that, a bottle of wine is a must. I don't think I'll be losing this week folks :(
  • Have a hug Mr A and Mrs A :grouphug: What a horrible scarey day. I hope tomorrow sees Mrs A on the mend and feeling better.

    FFM :)

  • Realy sorry to hear about Mrs A ajax, she has been in the wars recently and such a nasty scare.
    Hugs
  • WOOOOOOOO!

    I lost a whole 1lb.....which I am qute chuffed with as this week has been quite naughty foodwise (including beer and chinese buffet last night)

    Fingers crossed I don't find it again.

    Thanks for all the help and advice :D
  • Hi
    Been reading the threads since I last came on, about 7 pages I think! Don't post much but do read everything. Done my BMR and I need 1600 cals to lose 1lb a week, not sure if going to do this but it is very interesting, just do healthy I think.
    Hope MrsA is on the mend soon, and everyone else who is feeling poorly.
    This site really gives me an extra boost for my weight lose. Thanks
    Need to sort my life out! :T
