Risty's Diary (Christina)

Hey Risty I'm happy you're taking some time off to relax. I feel like doing just that today. It's all stormy here. Have a nice weekend and I hope you're well.
 
Well, it's Mother's day. Celebrated that yesterday at my bf's mom and step dad's yesterday, today at my parents. And yup I ate like crap. Whatever, it's a holiday :p I know that's not an excuse it's just hard not to eat what everyone is serving. So monday I'm gonna try really hard to get right back on track!

My allergies are absolutely killing me right now. I took a pill for it so hopefully it kicks in soon. My nose keeps running and it's really irritating me. I'm just really hoping it's not a cold. Sometimes it's hard to tell the difference between the two at first!

Cerella that would SO be the best ever reward for reaching our goal weights! EVER! lol.

2Skinny yeah it was really nice to take the night off!

Lukewarm I love when it's stormy, it's soooo nice. Really relaxing!
 
Howdy Risty,
Thank you for stopping by I am really feeling BLAH but it is mothers day and I am thankful to have great kids even tho they are testing me today lol!! As far as painting I think it was bad for me also because of going over DARK with light requires more than 1 coat I painted the same wall 3 x's grrr.
I hope you enjoy today and have fun 'BOOTCAMP tomorrw,Tammy
 
Hey Risty...yeah I haven't indulged yet but I absolutely plan to...no guilt! Tomorrow we'll absolutely get back on track. Sorry about your allergies! I cannot medicate mine without getting majorly drowsy, non-drowsy puts me in a coma, so I hope you manage to overcome yours while staying awake :)
 
lol i think your allergies are getting you back for eating like crap lol
It was mothers day so i went for a 90km bike ride and burnt 2500 calories, then i ate a 100 calorie chocolate :D
 
Hey Risty, just popping in to say have a good weekend. My sons both have allergies (and asthma) and many in our family have hay fever. They change up the kind of antihistamines available at the drug store which usually helps.
Here's to a new week of eating healthy and exercise! Whoo hoo!
 
I have allergies, really really really bad allergies. Nothing works either. Good luck with yours!

Have a good week Risty!!!
 
Hey! Long time no type.

I'm so sorry to hear about your cyst, I hope the surgery goes well and youre back in the gym doing what you love to do. Setbacks can feel like such a blow, but of course you'll get through it. And dont be so hard on yorself about indulging a bit, you have so many other things to pat yourself on the back for. :)
 
Morning Risty!!
I think we all ate a little more than we usually do over this past weekend. What can we say, it was Mothers Day and food is every where. But, it's now a fresh week and time for everybody to get back on track. I'm sure you'll get right to it as you always do. I hope your day is a good one!!

Oh no,

I'm sorry to hear about your cyst - fat lot of good I'm doing as a friend! Been too self-involved. Forgive me :(

I had a lump too a few years ago - under my arm. I didn't really notice it for a while - I thought maybe it was fat - until I realised that my other arm didn't have the same lump. So I went to my GP, who immediately referred me for surgery. I had the surgery a few days later, but it was ok (Phew - I didn't know as much as I do now about cancer, but even then the thought of having it scared me sh*tless).

I hope it will all be fine. You probably won't be able to do your CK class for a couple of weeks. (I remember disregarding that piece of advice and ripping a couple of stitches, which I tried to ignore until the pain of infection drove me back to the doctor). It's a shame you have to miss the classes, but you'll get better, and you'll get back on track.

PS: KFC...yum but eurgh.. Miss Ladybug is right! Everytime I've had junk food (over the last month or so) I've had horrible stomach cramps.. like my body knows I'm doing something stupid..

Have a lovely day :)
 
I hear you Risty, when I was with my family I indulged too. But overall it didn't hurt anything. Its so nice to finally understand how calories work so that I know by eating that cobbler I had I wasn't going to gain any weight.
But lucky us, most of the holidays are over for a good while :)
 
So I'm at work and it's pretty quiet. I'm not going to my CK class tonight I'm just plain exhausted. Been staying up late and not being able to sleep really. I even had a bad dream about my surgery going bad. I'm not even that worried about it, at least not that I knew of, I guess my dream says otherwise.

Wishes allergies have nothing to do with eating junk :p Besides my allergies have been bugging me for at least a month or two, it's just that time of year and it sucks, lol.

Cerella Meeting you would also be a great reward for reaching my weight goal! lol... Too bad they are so far away, those would be awesome tats for sure! *cries*

MissLadyBug You're right, I'm sure everyone ate a little more or things they don't usually during the holiday. And yes we just need to get back on track!

Drywit Thanks a lot, I know I'm hard on myself. I've always been that way and it's hard to change that. But I really am going to try and change that :)

Tammy I hope you'er bootcamp is going well, mine's going ok!

RhoRho You're an awesome friend so don't even think otherwise. Our lives get busy and it's hard to keep up with everything sometimes, especially the forums. I need to do some catching up myself. I'm glad your surgery went well. I wasn't sure how long it would take to recover from it but since you said about a couple weeks and you've had it done then I'm sure it'll be close to that. I definately don't want to rip any stitches and get an infection, that'll just make it longer and more painful to heal. And yes, when I have junk food like KFC ... or chinese food like I did this weekend my body did not like it one bit, my stomach was hurting, felt nauseated and lets just say the bathroom was my friend, lol. So even though I crave those things I should just not eat it because my body obviously doesn't like it.

Lukewarm Good job on not indulging yet. I know you're going to and I applaud that you won't feel guilty about it, because there really is no reason to!

Ashy You're right about the whole calories thing. I mean, even if you did happen to eat enough to gain weight that could just easily be fixed!
 
Hey Risty,

Was just about to go to bed (it's past midnight here) when I saw you'd posted. Don't be nervous about your surgery - you will be fine. There really isn't much to it. I don't want you being too nervous beforehand as it'll just make you tense. Just relax, and trust the good doctors :) (Dreams are more telling than we'd like them to be)

And yes, do take it easy after the surgery. The best thing you can do for your body is get well properly before engaging in any form of taxing physical exercise like CK. Oh, and don't even talk about junk food - the thought of all that food I ate makes me sick. Hopefully the feeling will last so I can stick to proper eating :) Nighty night..
 
Hi Risty :) It's great to be optimistic but it's ok to be nervous.. haha you're so optimistic that you're dreams are forcing you to worry. I'm sure everything will be cool though and I hope you get some better sleep in the coming days because truthfully, your rest is most important. I hope you don't push yourself too hard after the surgery because of what RhoRho said, that's scary. When is the surgery again? Hope you have a good night.
 
Hey thanks guys :)

Lukewarm The surgery is on Weds afternoon. I only had taken that afternoon off from work and everyone kept asking me how much time I took off.. and I was like, just that afternoon... and they just look at me like I are crazy or somethin! lol... So, I phoned around and I have people to cover my shifts for me on thurs and fri if I feel I need it. So at least I have that covered just in case. I like to be prepared. But yeah I'm sure everything will be ok. I'm just worried that they might not be able to get everything or whatever because it's gotten smaller again. Sometimes it's so small it's hard to feel anything and I think it would be easier to get everything out when it's big. So that's my main stressor right now, I don't want it getting smaller so that they can see what the cyst is like when it's big and remove the whole thing. But like I said it's already been getting smaller and so I hope it doesn't get too much smaller by weds.

RhoRho Thanks for the advice, I really will take it easy... which is why I have backup plans for work in case I need it! About the food, lets just remember how crappy we feel when we eat that way in hopes of avoiding that food in the future, lol.
 
OMG that's soon! I didn't realize you were having surgery so soon! :hug2: Well you're certainly in my thoughts and I hope that it is all removed as well, but I'm sure you are in great hands and what the hell! You didn't take more time off than that!?!?! Risty! Well thank goodness you got those shifts covered, even if you don't "need" it, you do. Let everyone treat you like a goddess and I know that I'm freaking out, but rest rest rest. Okay girl, have a good night.
 
Risty, I know everything will go well on Wednesday - the scale gods told me so! I'm burning some extra incense for you anyway.
 
Awww, thanks so much both of you!

Lukewarm Yeah it is soon, I didn't think it would be because surgeries take forever to get into, but it's not one of those huge ones or anything, so they can do then in a short amount of time. I think this surgeon does this kinda stuff every weds, so yeah, I was able to get in soon because of that. Yeah I'll for sure rest.

Tom Thanks a lot! You put a smile on my face :D I should start to burn some incense for the scale gods too. Maybe they'll help me for my plateau too, lol.
