The, if not shrinking, staying the same size Midwife...

Ginger apple and carrot sounds ok but I HATE celery :(
Which is poo because I put too much in a juice today so I couldn't drink it, which meant I ate two scones :(

ANYWAY
I'm keeping up with it and I refuse to feel bad about two small scones.
I'm going to have some leftover nice juice before trying the turbo express....

Or I might just skip that one and have a lemon ginger zinger :)
 
Can you make up lots of juice ahead of time and keep it in the fridge? How long does it keep?

I think it would be a total PITA to have to drag out the juicer all the time and have to prep veggies and all that at every meal. I'd want to make gallons of it at a time so I could just drink it and not have to bother with all that other mess.
 
I was out at uni today though. So I made some and took it with me.. But I couldn't drink it because of all the celery *bleurgh*
I'm out all day tomorrow on placement. yay woo fun...
So I'm going to make a flask full of one of the drinks and take two smaller ones with me to have throughout the day.

I had a run in with the tv licensing people today.
My flats a mess so I refused to let him in without a warrant.. So now they're going to apply for one to come in another time, which means the police will have to come too..
And I feel really embarassed about it now :(

But I was already running late, and I know they can't tell you when they're coming but it really pisses me off that they just turn up because I've had so many phone calls with them before now..

I really hope they just can't be bothered and never come again, but I worry now I've made myself look suspicious :(

When we don't even watch TV!!!
 
FUCKING TV PEOPLE! I hate them! I get letters at LEAST 3 times a week!! And we don't even watch TV. Stupid people. Tell them to fuck off! They wont bring the police round I'm sure. They should be out fighting criiiiime!
 
Don't be embarissed - when they come just tell them you had a bad experience with a wierdo trying to get in with a fake ID and that you are glad the police are there to reassure you!
 
Lol thats a great idea jjjay :)
Good to see you back :)

I'll catch up in your diary later, assuming you've posted there too!

Just came on quickly to say that my scales are back down to 205.25 today :)
 
Same on scales today, but thats fine, I don't want to lose too much!!

Decided definitely to eat one meal and a couple of snacks a day.
I had a salad yesterday with a little cheese and some meat and a packet of crisps and two more scones.
Today I've had two packets of crisps and I'm going to have chicken breast, veg and wholemeal pasta with a little cheese for tea.

Has a really AMAZING smoothie today but it had gone a little funny by the time I could drink it :(
Still tasted nice but my juice had gone funny too :(

Going to start putting a little lemon in each one to stop the fruit going brown sort of.
 
Yeah I so had a chinese instead of the lovely healthy chicken meal I had planned :p
But I'm doing so well during the days I can afford a little indulgence on an evening, and the scales are still edgin down. 205 exactly this morning.
Hoping to tighten it up over the weekend to drop down to maybe 203 202 ish.

Had a c ouple of chocolatae biscuit type things today at 100 calories each, but I've only had a massive smoothie today, and some mango.
Banana, apple, pineapple and natural yoghurt :) YUM!!

I also had a cinnamon and raisin bagel with quark which was so filling and not that bad calorie wise.

Probably allow myself a little more tonight..

I'm feeling a bit funny about tomorrow...
Got an appointment with my surgeon.
First one since me latest op!
NERVOUS
 
Yeah tightening it up over the weekend isn't going to work.
I'm ill :(

All snotty and blocked and scratchy throated :(

Had some bagels yesterday with quark, a sausage roll, some more of those biscuit things, some dried fruit.. Ermm think that was about it.

Going to make some juices today, have weetabix and a smoothie for breakfast, Melon, mango, pineapple and natural yoghurt.

Bleurgh i feel ill :'(
 
I'm so sorry you are feeling icky. I hope you get better really fast!

Good luck with your doctor appointment too. Be thinking of you....

I'm sure it will go fine though, right? RIGHT!
 
So.. I'm going to summarise everything...

Doctors
The lymph node they took out that the suspected/knew it was in, had carcinoid in it.
The one higher up they took out was clear.
As far as they're aware, there is no more carcinoid in me.
BUT I have to have another ct scan in 4 weeks to double check.
If that one is clear I have another in 6 months.
If thats clear I have one every 6 months indefinitely.
For a minimum of at least 5 years.
(Where am I going to fit children into this?!)
If anything shows up, by the sounds of it it's surgery each time until it's not safe to do anymore.
At which point I have to hope that radiotherapy will work.
Or a chemotherapy that actually works on carcinoid will have been developed.

Illness.
Yeah I'm still ill.
Sore throat.
Painful chest when I cough.
Snotty.
Bunged up.
Feeling shite :(

Weight
Yes I weighed myself at 00:45...
Down to 204.5 :)

Food
OK so the food might have let me down yesterday/today.
Bagel with margarine.
Subway salad (turkey, cheese and ranch)
A cherry tune :p
"Homemade" chocolate yoghurt (natural yoghurt with cocoa and sugar)
3 ginger biscuits.
I'm about to make a jacket potato I think.

Sleep
Strange option but....
I went to bed at like 4pm :p
Only just woken up!!

Uni/Placement
Uni on monday.. Wooo... I'm not looking forward to getting up so early!
Placement would have been tomorrow but I rang her and explained I'm ill :(
NOT looking forward to going back out next week.



Think thats everything...
Right off for food!!!
 
It's a menthol throat sweet.
Over here we have Tunes, Lockets, Strepsils, Halls, Fishermans Friend, Soothers, Cough Tablets (taste amazing despite the boring name) and.... I think thats it :p

Each brand has loads of flavours, including cherry :)
 
Look look!!
See that nice new number on my ticker?! :p
Was up at 207.5 when I changed scales and I'm down 3 pounds now :D
 
And the scales were friendly this morning when I weighed and hadn't jumped up suddenly from yesterday!!
204.5 this week :)
Thats a 3lb loss from last week!!

Also my boyfriend played diets this week too :p
He lost 2.5lbs the bugger!
And he quit the juicing thing after one juice!!!
 
He already weighs less than me lol
He gets the best of both worlds.
Smaller to begin with and finds it easier to lose big numbers!! :p
 
My rat fink hubby is the same way! All he has to do is THINK about watching what he eats and the bugger loses 5 lbs!

SO NOT FAIR!!!!!!
 
Lol,at least mine has to actually work for it though.
I'd be miffed if he could do it alone, he needs my help so it's not too bad.

ANYWAY
Feeling crap.
Really not liking/enjoying my placement. And I'm there til June.
It's rubbish.

ANYWAY AGAIN
Off to have some more pizza...
Had takeaway last night, ate half a pizza not a whole one! And I'm going to have the other half tonight.
Its chicken, muchroom and sweetcorn so not as bad as it could be.

not in a good mood
not a happy bunny
meh
bleurgh
