Ok, so everytime I get on here, I always think, "damn she's walking waaaay farther than me." So you motivate me to go for walks and runs. lol. Which I'm leaving to do right now.

Keep up the good work, I know you'll be fine on friday!

Thanks Jacqui, I might be walking farther, but you are definetly running farther ha ha. I'm absolutely dreading tomorrow, because I really don't think I've made the 10lb mark or anywhere near it. I can't be completely sure, but I just have a feeling. I'm now thinking if I am down 5lbs it won't be too bad, but I suppose over a four week period thats not great. Anyway, I suppose we get times when the weight loss slows a bit, I hope thats all it is. Anyways, I'll post tomorrow and let ya know. Thanks for all your support though, you've been brilliant. :waving:

Okay so here's the update

WEnt to the Doc this morning for my usual weigh in and asthma watch. Was down 10.5 lbs could't believe it. Am absolutely delighted. I am now down the grand total of 32lbs which I am really thrilled with. Unfortunately, She referred to me to Hospital and here is where I still am. ~Will probably be here for a week or so. I will log on any time I can get to the computer but it might not be easy. So I hope you all do great for the next week or so and I will touch base when I can. Cheers everyone for all the supportl Maddie xx
 
You must have felt so proud when you got on the scales. :)
Sorry to hear that you aren't well and wish you a very speedy recovery. Try and let us know how you are getting on. xxx

Thanks so much Ecky for your good wishes. Am now out of hospital and back in work thank god. I was discharged two days ago. One of my lungs had collapsed but I am feeling great now and ready to get back to losing the weight again. Won't be getting weighed for another 3 weeks so here we go again .... :hurray: great to be back

Oh the loverly rain has returned here too. (if it ever left!) I went for a walk with Fred (the mini horse) down the road in the rain the other day. It was amusing how many people stopped and just stared! I just told them he was a funny looking dog!

anyway, how've you been? you were gone for a while, and when you said you were in the hospital I was worried. Everything all better now?
 
Good for you for getting out of the hospital and just getting right back at it! Take care of yourself, though!

Hi Jacqui that must have been hilarious, poor Fred hope he doesn't get a complex ha ha

Yep I am getting better every day thanks. I am actually pushing myself to my absolute limit at the moment. I'm just trying to get my lungs to actually fill, which is a bit difficult at the moment, but onwards we must go. I won't lose the weight if i don't exercise so must keep going hee hee. Back to the hospital on the 10th, really hoping the x-rays come back clear or I will probably be staying another stint in there, which I really don't want, but no point worrying about it now. Positve mental attitude :biggrinjester:

Thanks for your kind thoughts Jacqui. I'm gonna have a peep in your diary later and catch up with how you are doing. xxx

Thank you so much Laura. I have to get right back at it, because I know if I stop even for one day, I'll probably start eating all the fattening food again. Twas bad enough in hospital, my husband kept bringing in chocolate and lovely tempting food, but in fairness, i actually made him eat them all himself. I even gave some of them to the Nurses just to get them away from me. I wasn't allowed any flowers, so the poor lad didn't know what to bring me in ha ha. Thanks again Laura hope you are doing well. Have a great week xx
 
The weekend went brillant for me. I got tonnes of exercise in so that was great. Actually on Sunday I added up that I walked for a total of 4.5 hours, which I'm chuffed with. I don't get weighed for another three weeks, but I might just have a sneeky peak when I go in to the Hospital on the 10th, just to see if I'm going in the right direction. I've lost 32lbs so far, so I suppose thats not bad. I'm now 177.8lbs as oppose to 209lbs mmmm when I say it like that I'm like, hey thats not bad at all. I want to lose another 27lbs so its gonna take alot of will power, and walking. If I lose another 14lbs by Christmas, I'll be happy with that and then I can take the next 14 lbs slowly after Christmas. These are my goals, hopefully, I can stick to them.

Anyway, food diary for today.

Breakfast : Fruit and Optifit yogart
Cereal bar :- 350 cals

Lunch : Porridge : 175 cals

Dinner : Homemade veg curry & rice :- 350 cals

Exercise

Now that I'm back in work I went for my 3 mile walk this morning

14lbs by christmas? that's what, in 8 weeks? psh, that'll be easy for you. :)

I'm hoping to be in the 220's by the 18th of this month when my grandmother comes for a visit. I'm going to work extra hard because every time I read your diary, I see you walked 3 miles, and it makes me go dang, she's working hard, so I'd better get a move on. lol

Again, I'M SO HAPPY YOU'RE BACK! :D:D:D
