Iwan's Weightloss Journal

Hii Iwan!!! Congrats on a great day! *googles Qashqai rug* wooo pretty!!
Maybe Mr. teacher man thinks your one hot number!! You should get his digits!!! :D:D:D
 
:D Hi Iwan! Missed you while I was busy! Hope you had great holiday, though I know you don't celebrate! Have great Monday too!!
 
Hi there Iwan,
Sorry to hear you've been sick - not fun - I'd stay away from the stuffing too! Hope you're doing well, and I'm glad to hear your grandpa is home.
 
Hey everybody, thanks for stopping by and spreading the forum love. Sorry I've been so selfish with the support lately. I've been so busy and stressed at work because I had to take time off last week. Things really pile up when you leave the office for a few days.
I've also been offered yet another job and I'm thinking of taking this one. This one comes with a free education as a registered nurse...what a bonus! I was even considering going back to school to become a nurse a few weeks ago. Talk about foresight.
Today has been a crappy food day. I've had about 374 cals today so far and I did the elliptical this morning like a mad woman thinking I was going to eat a huge lunch because I had a meeting but that never materialized because I went on a tone out at 11am and didn't get done till after 2:30. I just ate about 200 of those cals before I got online. Woooohooo....I think we'll have pizza for dinner tonight! easy cheesy goodness.
Oh, update on my SIL, still in the hospital. They are trying to keep that baby in her till December or as long as they can. She's being transfered to a hospital with a better NICU. She was bleeding again last night and the ultrasound clearly shows the placenta is directly over the cervix. My brother is freaking out. But my mom is there now so at least he's not alone.
Sorry for the long rambling post, if you made it this far I owe you a bottle of water.
 
Congratulations on the job offer AND the free education. That sounds awesome and it's a very rewarding field. As for your SIL I'm still praying and believing that all will be fine and this will all make for an interesting story to tell when the little one is in around second grade. :) *hugs*
 
Hope things work out for the best with you. Taking a new job is a huge step! But I know it can be worth it. So I hope you can do what is best for you. Where you will be happy..:)
 
Heya's Iwan,
Hope things are looking up for ya! Congrats
on new job offer! Rough times will pass soon and things
will start looking brighter for ya,Tammy:)
 
Hey there girl,
Your brother and sil are in my thoughts!

Moving to a new job/field is a huge step - I'm sure whatever you decide will be a success!

And thanks for the water, I haven't been drinking as much as I should ;)
 
Good Luck with everything Iwan. Hang in there, the hard times will pass.
And Good luck to the family. They're in my thoughts.
 
Wow, it hasn't even been a whole week since I've been here but my life has changed completely. I had a seizure at the gym while I was doing cardio and was taken to the hospital by ambulance. As soon as I got there I jumped off the gurney they had me on and left to go and get my son from school because there was nobody that could manage that one tiny little favor for me. On the way from the school to my house in a taxi I had another seizure and the cab driver took me back to the hospital. These wern't little seizures and I can't even remember having them. I can only remember a very strange lightheaded feeling before having them and then its like I wake up a couple minutes later with an aweful bile like taste in my mouth and my whole body hurts.
Basic tests at the clinic didn't show anything abnormal like a stroke or anurism so I'm scheduled for dr. appt's in anchorage next week for trouble shooting. I don't know what to think. I do have a fasting blood draw tomorrow morning at 9am, why do they do fasting blood draws?
As far as weightloss and diet goes I've kinda put that all on the back burner till I get this all sorted out. Funny thing is, I was stuck at 208 when that happened and since then I've dropped to 201 and I havn't even been paying attention to what has been going in my mouth and I havn't been doing cardio either. And its not like I"m not eating because I've eaten every meal this week and I've even had chinese take out and pizza and candy. Sometimes I just have to sit back and wonder...
anyways, I'm going to try and make it around and comment but I am so freaking behind on my work. Yesterday was my first day back at work after not showing up for 4days.
 
Oh man Iwan,
I hope they find out what's going on soon!

The reason they wanted a fasting blood draw is because it gives a more accurate reading then one influenced by food.
 
I only have a quick minute for an update. I just wanted to do a little celebration. This morning I weighed and I am officially in onederland 198 lbs! I blew away my christmas goal by 2 1/2 weeks!

*this moment brought to you by the bitter freezing cold*
 
:) Heya's "IWAN,
Good to c-ya and congrats to 198/onderland!!!!!!!
Your kicking ass girl have a funtastic weekend,Tammy:)
 
Woo Hoo on One-der-land!!

And for getting an internet connection!
I've missed hearing from you!
 
Well that's it, I'm switching over to chinese take out, pizza and candy.

Congrats on reaching onederland, I can't even imagine the joy of such a moment.
