Lift, Train, Fitness

A little earlier while I was posting a detailed response in another diary, it was a bit of a coincidence that the author of the the book I use to calculate calories etc was being interviewed as part of tonight's catalyst episode on exercise, diet health etc. in her role as head of nutrition at the AIS nothing new for me in the episode but worth a watch especially covering the facts that %30 of those who think they are healthy according to BMI have health risks due to their fat levels and pointing out the facts that muscular strength is a major indicator of future health.

Australia, if it is not drought it is flood, rain finally arrived, been raining since friday arvo, of course the weather brings out the idiots who drive in flood water, 1 death so far. I have not been feeling very good so not posting much.
 
"I love a sunburnt country,
A land of sweeping plains,
Of rugged mountain ranges,
Of droughts and flooding rains.
I love her far horizons,
I love her jewel-sea,
Her beauty and her terror-
The wide, brown land for me."
~Dorothea Mackellar, "My Country".
We love our country Tru, but it is so vast & so varied. There will always be idiots. Take care of yourself & keep safe. Not long to go now. Has that little girl got herself in the right place yet?
 
nope not in the right place, have appointment tomorrow afternoon, will be working out which day they want me to go into hospital

A bit TMI but the last couple of days I have been hit hard by haemorrhoids, nothing working to relieve the pain (feels like razor blades) cannot get to see my GP till Thursday. Tried to go to the emergency room last night at the local hospital (not the hospital where I will be giving birth) for some pain relief, was there until 2 am after being in the waiting room for 5 hours before giving up as there was only 1 doctor on duty. Triage nurse said it should have been a 30 minute wait based on the guidelines they use for determining need.
 
feeling relieved tonight, bub has moved into position, so will be induced via balloon catheter 5pm on the 24th. They basically inflate a balloon to prepare the cervix overnight at the hospital then break my waters the following morning.

It is too close to giving birth for them to cut the haemorrhoid but it should resolve after the birth until then i just have to cope.
 
Hope it's not crazy hot up there! Fingers & toes crossed for a good & quick birth Tru xo
