Well it's turning out to be the crappiest day for a long time. I took my lovely cat to the vet this morning as he has been off his food for a few days and she has found a large mass in his belly which they are going to test this afternoon. She's told me to prepare for the worst though... so now I'm sitting here planning how and when we will do the decent thing for him. The vet will call this afternoon to let me know exactly where we are with him.

I know it's 'only a cat' and there are others on here with far greater problems than this, but it doesn't stop me being upset as I've had him for years. Child substitute and all that!!

I shall do a quick drop in for weighing tonight but I'm hoping that I can collect him from the vet so he can come home for some extra love and attention. I won't be able to concentrate at group anyway. When his time has come I shall get them to do a home visit so he can go in own surroundings without being scared.

Thanks for listening, had to tell someone as no one else is around at the moment.

awww Rae how hard is that, and it's not 'just a cat', they are our substitute babies, and when we loose them it's just as hard as loosing a human (sometimes harder!). I hope you get to have some quality time with him at home before you have to make that very hard decision, my thoughts are with you huni.

Well done all on this week's losses! Sadly I only lost 2lb despite a mad weekend of tearing about Devon. A bit disappointed but as long as its ticking down I can't complain.

LLC said that the DVDs are officially stopping - thanks for the heads-up last week LS. Now we can choose to arrive early to watch them before w/i's or skip them altogether. Last night we watched the one about "strokes" which, again had my group in hysterics. Does that make us purile?

 

[RaeB]

LS I'm positive that you didn't give in to the munchies last night. Bet you feel good this morning for that.

It's amazing how this is encouraging me to think about my feelings and thoughts, something that I've strived not to do for years. Talk about repressed emotions. This could be an interesting journey, especially if it helps me in other areas of my life as well. I'm very good at 'sticking my head in the sand'.

Weighed in last night - 6.5lbs!!!! I can't believe it - I'm thrilled to bits. Does anyone have any tips for week 2, does the novelty start to wear off because all of a sudden 3 stone seems such a long way off?
