Woo hoo only 17 more days and I am on holidays. Oh hip hip hooray. We cant wait. I think its been about 2.5years since I have had a holiday and even though we aren't going anywhere I am sooooo looking forward to swimming and walking the dogs and lying in. Yippee. Going to have an obliteration instead of a hysterectomy so only 3 days for that recovery.
Weight is swaying around the 82kg mark. I think I am just about done. Not really going to lose anymore I don't think actually I am kind of happy with where I am at. I keep thinking when will enough be enough? I work with a bander and she is completely fucked in the head about her weight to the point we (that's her and I) think she is anorexic, Her wee statements like eating is overrated is a bit of a give away to her state of mind. Anyway its making me think I could easily get to the same state as her and I need to evaluate where I am going with my own goals and if I will really ever reach them. So, I have pretty much decided that if I can maintain where I am at then I have arrived! Its been two years next week since I started my band life. I cant believe its been that long. Its been quite a ride. Certainly a lot of downs but more ups I think. I will always be grateful for it that's for sure. When I go on my holidays I am starting to get my exercising back on track (well I say that now). Its so hard to get motivated. But that is the plan............................................... for today!
Will blog you soon xxxx

A huge week has just passed.
Firstly our second Granddaughter Alicia was born on the 14/08. Gorgeous but a rough start so its great she is fairing better.
I had a fill last week which became so tight that I couldn't swallow. I put up with it for 5 days but had it released yesterday and now am enjoying fluids again. 81.5kg on the scales which is a thrill albeit from starvation lol .
Work has been full on. We have put our names down on a transfer list hoping to get an offer of either Broome or Roebourne. Its a great package and an adventure. Hope it can work out. Good chance as they need officers up there.
lastly to top of my week the Dr told me I am in menopause. What a rip off that is! 42years old. Pffffft. and he added that I will have to look out for Osteoporosis (don't even know how to spell it lol. What the hell am I looking for?
Well thats it from me. Hope you are well. xxxx me

Morning all. Well either the Tamiflu was amazing or I didnt have swine flu unless you can get super mild cases. I have felt all week just generally unwell but the only thing that has been a complete pain in the arse well its my ears actually. They are so sore and blocked but nothing else so I dont think it was the flu/ Anyways I guess it pays to be cautious. (and spend lots of long days tucked up in bed with books and coffees and bickies and ice cream.................oops did I say ice cream lol) My band is now really quite relaxed. Going from very little food to a small meal is quite scary for me but I enjoying not looking at the bottom of the toilet bowl. Still quite restricted till about 4pm then I can eat up.
Im back at work on monday so I am going to try and get my ears sorted and unblocked by then with any luck.
My sons baby was due yesterday but she is running late.
My lab pups are chewing everything and anything. Murphy even waits for the door to open and makes a mad dash in, grabs what ever he can reach (usually the broom) and runs for his life back outside. I tell you it really is his cuteness that saves his life lol. We are off to the beach soon as they have both discovered water and just love it.
Andy is sitting his citizenship test on monday and isnt too hopeful on being able to pass it. You get a book on aussie facts and then you have to answer a few random questions out of it.
Well no more news from me . Blog you soon xx oink

Hey...........................I have swine flu! 7 days quarantine for me. So I have my supply of Tami flu and bed and tv. Sounds like bliss doesnt it lol. As long as it doesnt develop anymore then Ill be right. There are 4 confirmed cases at work so I guess it had to be a pretty big risk to us working there. Still have an appetite though and just mild flu syptoms. Will let you know how I go. Back to bed for me.
PS must get a wee bell to ring for my man nurse lol lol lol

Hi all. Well I can now eat full on again. Suddenly I can eat anything and a lot more than I have been able to up until now. Not sure what thats about but I am enjoying having meals again lol. I am down to about 83 - 84kg. In 7 weeks I am having a hysterectomy (mmm somthing to look forward to on my holidays) so I will have most of the fill taken out for that. A bit scary for sure. I am expecting to be a Nana to my sons bub any day now. Cant believe it but am trying to cos its going to happen lol.
I just made some breakfast muffins ( bacon and cheese) and have only just noticed that I misread the recipe and put in 2 cups too little of the flour. No wonder they look more like pancakes than muffins. Oh well. lol. Hubby and boy still eat them. Mind you they eat pretty much anything. No other news from me. Our pups are doing great. They love the beach and park so thats a good bit of exercise for me too. Blog ya soon xxxx
