Wow!

Such a long time since I last posted ...
To be honest I've been very busy with getting myself better, being in hospital, again, with a scare, work (full time now) and getting my eldest to University! He's only been there a week and I'm missing him .. he's having a whale of a time though.... party, party party!!!!
Youngest is, having just started sixth form, enjoying life too ... party, party, party .. though, finishing at more sociable hours!!!
Well I have, once again, joined SW .. I had to find one that I hadn't failed at ... luckily, a lovely little group in the next door village and it's over the side of town where I work, so I can just go there straight from work! Result!
My weigh in was a bit of a shocker!!!!! but in three weeks I've lost 7.5lbs.. so that's ok!
I'm trying to lose enough, so it shows, a bit, by Christmas!
Here's hoping!!!

Happy Days!

So ...

.. today I am suffering for my terrible choices I made yesterday!
I went to the health food shop to get my golden linseed, after work, while hungry! Not my best move!
5 minutes later I came out with said linseed, peanuts and raisins in chocolate and a mix they call Roulette! Again, another bad move on my part!
I got home and then, wait for it, proceeded to eat my way through, not only one, but, each of the bags of mixed nuts! Really bad move!
Today, my sad, diverticulitis riddled gut is SORE!  All my own doing!!!!
Goodness only knows how many syns I consumed!!!

Today I'm drinking lemon water and feeling not only sorry for myself, but really really annoyed with myself and stupid!!!!

Ho hum!

Another slump!

Well here I am ... feeling well peeved off ... these beta blockers have just sapped all my energy ... It's rubbish!  I really need to re focus!
Must get back to my SW group properly .. I know for a fact that all I've done these last few weeks is gained weight!!!! 
At this moment in time I really hate myself, though, I do know it's not all my fault!
This week I've been to and from the hospital getting monitors, then checked in with my GP again ...
Roll on September when I get to see a proper cardio consultant!

Ho hum .. watch this space for my gain!!!!

Well I never!!!!!

It seems the last post I wrote was a little bit too near to the truth or was it tempting fate??? I'd had a lovely time with my father, gone to see the sea...  came home Friday night went to bed as normal but was awoken in the wee small hours of 19 April with a feeling that I had two doves fighting in my chest! I ended up in a&e having gone by ambulance to the hospital! I was released four days later! It seems I have AF.   Once again I can't fault the nurses or the doctors that were there, needless to say though, that there were not enough of them!!! It turns out that Easter weekend is NOT a good time to be in the hospital! It seems no doctors work over the Easter period!!!! As of today I feel okay though totally exhausted!!! Apparently the beta blockers do that to you! The doctors were pleased that I had lost so much weight, and said I should carry on doing the same thing!! And Thursday, I went for a health check at my doctors and it turns out I have a very very low risk of heart disease, the weight loss has helped this!  I wonder though what all this has done to my weight atm... bet it won't be the three stones tonight!!!!!
