Well done Jennie, You must feel great and the hard work vindicated being over half way, so close to 7st and the 100lb mark. A testament to iron willed determination and staying on plan. Hope it goes well at the Docs today - even the most dour of medical people will be staggered at you progress.

Good morning Jennie - what a fantastic weight loss, well done that's absolutely brilliant & just what you needed to boost your spirits. And almost half-way through your journey. Wow - you are a star.xx

(am OVER halfway now
) hee hee hee... wonder if I will start running down this last bit ?
you know how children try to run when they can only just walk.. lol.. will need to watch out for that!
Thanks though. I was dead chuffed and even more so this morning.
Just wanted to say WOW! or :wow:. You are having a magnificant journey and so getting there. Dizzy x
:giggle: :clap:
I went to hospital this morning up in Leicester (via dropping Zoe off at college - having shown her how to make a chicken salad wholemeal pitta packed lunch).. and got there early. Went in and met the man himself... he looked at the file and said "hmm, you are very tired aren't you" and I just grinned and said " nope, not any more! You're looking at my first sleep questionnaire.. not the one I just filled in" so he looked at the new one.. and then looked at me square in the eye and asked "what's different between then and now?" and I beamed at him and said.. "I've lost 7 stone!"
lol
He looked very shocked so I gave him my passport photo and told him about the diet.. and he pretened to be lifting a hat off his head and said "if I was wearing a hat I would take it off to you" .
He then showed me the results of my tests way back last spring when I was first diagnosed with Sleep Apnea.. and he explained how my oxygen levels had dropped dangerously low and my heart rate and been highly erratic.. and that I definitely (back then ) needed a machine. He then showed me the results from December and explained that the 3 stone I had lost by then had changed everything dramatically but that I was still borderline... and then.. he looked in my throat and asked me more about the diet and the weight loss and simply smiled and said.
"Well.. you have healed yourself. You should be very proud of yourself. I'm discharging you, no point in seeing someone who is perfectly well! " We shook hands I couldn't stop grinning, thanked him and flippin near enough skipped to the secretaries desk and handed over the discharge notice!
As soon as I got outside I rang my mum - she is so chuffed. Then as I drove home I remembered the place on the A6 in Desborough that does the Rigby and Peller bras.. and I stopped in there on the way back, got fitted... they reckon I am now a 38FF!!!! (down from last new bras of 40H)... she told me that I shouldn't expect to lose too many more cup sizes and that she thinks the smallest size I am ever likely to be is a 36 as she could feel me ribcage!!!! LMAO... I was on such a high!! lol I bought a lush bra which isn't as high at the front as my current ones.. and I love it!!! Not sure if they did fit me correctly or not, but loving the shape this bra gives me!
So.. off to Louise's Boutique tomorrow after work to get fitted there again too and buy at least one more new bra for the next couple or three months!!
Told Zoe this morning that I'm going to have no shame in Tobago in June and saggy skin or no, am going to wear a bikini for sunbathing in and get me belly tanned for the first time in over 20 years! lolol (will be wearing sarong of course!! and prob shorts.. lol) but figure that, as the only person there I shall ever see again will be my sister, so what! Sod the rest of them!
Asda are flogging bikinis in up to a size 20 for £3 a throw at the moment so I'm going to get a couple in an 18 as June is 3 months away I reckon I should be in an 18 by then. If not, I will hang onto them and only have lost £6 so not the end of the world!
Must go now... got to get to the gym.. might put old bra on.. don't want new one getting all sweaty.. lol
Ohh.. also... had an email about my CV from an old school friend who works for a large bank in London... asking me what I would like to do! SO.. never know eh?
Rang agency yesterday.. didn't get that job with dodgy hours.. they changed the job they wanted to fill and filled it internally!! lol
Also - sis rang last night, I thought she was quiet - she's been very ill out there! Had to go to hosp - severe chest and throat infection! Her 'fella' is still lying to her and not paid her money back... and we've organised a birthday lunch for our mum on March 9th... I must book the table (am taking my soup with me ).
Right - got to run! (well, walk fairly briskly - can't imagine I shall EVER run!!)
Am so pleased today. Can't wait to tell Zoe and Sarah later!
hope all are having a great day xxxxx
