Nope =(
Went to my grandma's for lunch then took my mum to the supermarket. Was hoping that was gonna put a nice dent into my count but it didn't really.
Then when I got home it was time to get in the shower and go out.
So am currently stepping back and forth, pretending to be moving to the music to gain the extra 4000 steps. Not gonna make it =(

how did you get on?

Haven't been on here for couple of days because not in v good place at the mo Thursday went off plan-took funny turn in asda and ate some sweets which made me feel a bit better then had massive bowl of rice for dinner-felt so guilty but think I hadn't eaten enough. Yesterday went for 1st blood test to see if can start ivf-one of the nurses I spoke to was horrible and I stupidly got upset, ended up feeling v sorry for myself and walked most of the way home in tears. Today was WI and I lost 1.5 lbs but then went out with oh and had massive bit of cheesecake and have just eaten a greasy Chinese takeaway for dinner-still feeling a bit down in the dumps and needed something to make me feel better-it did for about 5 mins but now feel guilty and disappointed in myself again going to try and start again tomorrow and stick to points for rest of week

Hey Sweetie

I know it's not hugely important at this time but just wanted to say Well Done on your 1.5lb loss, that's a big achievement given everything you've had going on and shouldn't be dismissed.x
Don't let yesterday's food ruin things for the rest of the week,everyone needs a cheat or treat meal and that can be yours. X
Hope today and the rest of the week is better for you.x
Good Luck Sweetie, You can do this.xxxxx

 

[elfy1807]

I think Thursday was just a bad day in general as I wasn't feeling brilliant.

Sorry to hear you had a rude nurse - when will you find out your results?

1.5lbs is a brilliant loss. Well done.

I hope you're well and that you've been doing well with your food the last few days.
If you need anything, come talk to us. You know we're here for you

Hi-sorry have been AWOL, have had worst week our IVF has been cancelled for at least 3mths because the clinic didnt realise until the day of our appointment to start injections that blood tests I had done in January show I am not immune to rubella which means I need jab and the will be tested after 3mths and if it hasn't worked I will need another jab and wait another 3mths-I am gutted and so angry! It's taken all if this time to get ourselves ready for it only for it to be stopped at the last minute, feel like I want to eat a whole load if **** and get so drunk

That's awful news.
Any way you can make a complaint?

Please don't binge and get drunk.
If you do that, they might have more of and excuse not to let you have ivf and you'll be waiting longer.
I don't personally know how you're feeling, but I can imagine it's not great at all.
But look at it as a chance to lose a bit more weight before starting the ivf.
3 months is about 12 weeks. If you lose 1.5lbs a week for the next 12 weeks, that will be 18lbs gone and you'd be at goal.
Then you'll be in a perfect position for ivf and you'd have a higher chance of conceiving.

I know it's probably not what you want to hear right now, but you have to make the best out of a bad situation.
I'm sure you'd rather the ivf worked first time, and being lighter should give you a better chance of that happening.

Sorry to hear the bad news and hope you get better news soon

Thanks love I don't know what's happened but they've had our results since beginning of the year so more than enough time to sort it out before now. Now I'm not sure if I can trust them x

Thanks Emma, I know what you are saying makes sense-need to use this time to our advantage and try to lose more weight and get heads together. I did have a small blip yesterday-ended up going over by about 5pps and tomorrow I'm meeting mother for afternoon tea but apart from that going to try and resist and get more aps under my belt. It's taken me 10 wks to lose 5lb and can't afford to put any of that back on! X
