Abi's weightloss diary - post jaw surgery

[ditzeeblonde]

Thats the key really... fluids & tons of them! When I did Cohens before I was drinking 5-6 litres a day my skin has never looked better... no processed foods & a ton of water passing thru me!

 

[abz]

well so far i've had 1.5 litres of water (well, with fruit and barley) two cups of tea and two coffees... ha. on with the water...

well honey. there aren't many of us that can say we haven't... i should have been at goal before christmas and here i am desperately trying to get there in time for my wedding now... hmph. will get there though. i may overdose on tea before i do however... it's stopping me from eating by by gum am i getting the stuff down!! ha.

abz xx

I was ment to get to goal too before xmas!

 

[abz]

well guys. the mysterious half a stone gain is staying with me dammit... i really hope it's the scales or i'm going to get really mad!! it's slightly less than yesterday though so even the wonky scales are going down. batteries are a priority. i just really hope that my scales don't show the half a stone gain over night as a reality

[Georgiestar]

awww just hope its the betteries then, just got to persevere if not...

 

[BREN]

yep fingers crossed Abz, but dont let it dishearten you. Be strong and change the battle, we all have or had with food, and start living your healthy eating life!

Just think and know that it's a plateau and will budge soon. Mine has slightly and I feel you may bee the same. try and cut the tea back a little as of the caffeine.

[abz]

cutting caffeine is not something i'm going to be able to do fast bren usually i'm a coffee girl, ha.

i went to change the batteries only to discover it takes one of those big round watch batteries. i don't know where i got the notion that it took AAs, but at least now we have a lot of spares *sigh*. so am off to the supermarket today. perhaps i can get one somewhere near there. think there's a watch place..

[ditzeeblonde]

Hey Abz.
Think alot of supermarkets now to the flat watch batteries... I've even managed to get some from my local garage before!

Don't be disheartened babes... your on the right track. xx

 

[BREN]

Yep coffee is also my downfall i have about 2 real cups and in the afternoon I have decaf if I can.

Good luck with the battery hunting... what about a key cuttershop??

 

[Georgiestar]

I love cups of tea too much, so reducing the caffeine helps you loose the weight?

 

[Tazzi]

Abz you are a super woman........and im really cant wait to see you in your dress xx

 

[BREN]

Yep Georgie, caffeine dehydrates you and causes fluid retention. As a personal rule if I have a coffee this means another glass of water for the day for me.

Abz when is your dress fitting??

 

[abz]

hey guys. my dress fitting is mid-june as far as i know. if it's later than that i'm going to start panicking about having a dress!! ha.

totm showed up yesterday which i'm hoping will explain the overnight 7lb gain. thomas is going to try and get me a proper battery for the scales today, ha. so i've been scalesless for a couple of days, but, surprisingly, it hasn't bothered me...

what is bothering me is that the foil on my painkiller packet cut the tip of my finger really deeply lastnight and typing is proving rather painful so i'm having to type really slowly as i am having to use the wrong fingers. grrr.

went to see the watchmen last night. it was pretty good. and this probably says far too much about me but one of the supernatural chaps was bright blue and naked almost all of the time, and the size of his penis?? well. let's just say i spent the entire film thinking a) whose job was it to decide on penis size and b) feeling really sorry for the computer graphics person who had to spent forever modelling a giant blue penis moving in a realistic manner...

it just made me laugh...

there was also far more sex in it than i expected but that seemed to shock OH more than me. and they were obviously going for the geek audience with the zoom shots on the female leads crotch. but it was still very gory and pretty good. not one i would see again but apparently good if you are a fan of the graphic novel, which i hadn't read...

i am at work today and things are a little slow... there are lots of things to do but none of them are immediate and i'm here for 10 hours today and 10 hours tomorrow so there's time for me to get into things then.

other than that i'm eating prune yoghurts and plums in the hope of getting my digestive system going a wee bit. counteracting the side effects of my pain killers but as yet, no luck... .don't i have an exciting life? hee.

and that's the end of ramble number one. no doubt there will be another one before too long...

[Minz]

Ha ha - that post made me laugh......hope the day whizzes by Abz. x

 

[abz]

i should point out that the blue guy could turn into a giant, and then he was always wearing knickers. i suppose it would be too much of a threat to the enemy to be able to look up...

 

[peppa]

abz i think you think too much!!
are you interested in graphics now

 

[abz]

ha. i've always been interested in computer graphics. i dabbled in it a wee bit at uni but the maths was always a wee bit too complex for me

still. it really does show the computer geek side of me doesn't it... hee.
