Sorry for the lack of posting but most of you will know through Facebook, that I have been crook with tonsillitis and congested chest! Been off work since going home last Thursday, though I did try to go to work on Monday, was fine at home, dropped Rachel off, got on the train and then the coughing started, and just wouldn't stop! I literally coughed all the way from UH to Wellington! I had sent my boss a text saying I was on my way but perhaps I should just go home again... but then once I was at Wgtn station, I rung him, and turned around and caught the next train home again!
Went to the Dr on Monday afternoon, was not my usual Dr and this one definitely needs to work on people skills for a variety of reasons which I really won't go into now (mainly due to the fact that I am tired and heading to bed) but he did give me a med certificate recommending that I stay off work until Thursday. So have had 3 days this week of just resting and got to a point of thinking that resting can be over rated! LOL Whenever I tried to do stuff around the house (like tidying up or folding washing) I would start coughing so had to take it really easy. Am quite worried about the train trip tomorrow and the coughing, but will take my water and lozenges and hopefully will be ok.
Foodwise this week hasn't been to bad considering I have been home the whole time. But weight still not moving... but no exercise has been done either so I will get there one day... I hope! Looked at myself naked in the mirror this morning and got quite upset so I do know I NEED/HAVE to do something about it but where the hell is my motivation and willpower? All of my weight is in my stomach and I have this awful hanging pouch which is bloody ugly and even if I went through with WLS, I would still require the tummy tuck etc as well once I had lost the weight due to the sagging pouch! So, I would really need a spare $50k to get both op's etc! So unless we win lotto, life goes on the hard, slow way! :(
Despite not being at work for the last week, I have so had enough of my job and the greater team! I am so over it all and can not wait to move on to something more exciting and challenging... still haven't heard back re the Chch job - sent the agency an email yesterday afternoon asking where things were with it but have not heard back at this stage.
Right, heading to bed now - catch ya all later

I hope you're feeling better soon Karen!! Lil x
Its hard work eh Karen. I am finding the bit by bit way really helpful cos doing one thing a week is achievable for me.
No weight change for me either due to lack of exercise to do with hysterectomy. Dying to get into it.
Sorry to hear you have been sooo sick. You poor thing.
We have missed your visits and look forward to you being well enough to come round.
Just think if you start making changes now in 2 years time you are going to be in a better place than if you let your diet go unchecked.
Big hugs to you.
