LOVING MY WATER
Hi Shaza, I FINALLY found your diary, of in all places 'diaries' DO'H!!!! lol!! 16 lbs in TWO WEEKS???? Wow am I jealous??!!!
Do you do any exercise with your CD or are you just SUPER STRICT? I've been struggling just lately but today I'm being a CD angel, I REALLY want to lose at least another stone before 25th May when we visit my parents who live in Mablethorpe. Now TOTM is almost over I've promised myself I'll do some 'Salsacise' (Rosemary Conley, really easy, fun & gets you sweaty) & weights/resistance work to burn some more fat off. Hope you carry on losing so fast, you'll soon be in 16 tops!! or less! A 'glammy granny' even if you do look too young to be one.xxxx

Thanks Sharon
Sorry to hear you are struggling a bit ~ its really hard to get back on the wagon. Just keep plodding away and up your exercise and you will be fine
I cant exercise much as I have Rhumatoid Arthritis so have to be very careful what I do. I go to hydro therapy at the DRI every Friday (gentle exercise in warm water 40% lovely) and that really really helps me to keep my affected joints mobile. I can do things in the warm water what I cannot do normally so I really like my hydro therapy. I have now started going to aqua tone at moorways and that is ok for me to do to. One of the main reasons why I put weight on is because when I was diagonosed 5 years ago I am really slower and more inactive compared to how I was before ( each year I gained a stone even though I slimmed ~ something to do with eating to make my self feel better when in pain as well )
No excuses really we all eat for different reasons any old excuse eh Sharon.
I am just be mega mega good at the moment absolutely nothing is passing my lips and I have challenged myself to lose 2 stone before I go to menorca 1st June ~ so thats 6 stone altogether only 21lb to go for my mini target and I am really determined. I cant even put a little thing or any drink in my mouth or it really effects my weight loss so unfortunately no cheating for me until Dec when I am at target. Just a year out of my life to get slim and its really worth it to me.
You look fab on your picture how much have you lost and how much more to lose? What size are you now ~ you look great to me??
Anyway enough already ~ have a fab weekend try not to cheat and always remember all girls are beautiful princesses my Daddy told me that !!!!

LOVING MY WATER
Lol!!My dad told me I was 'Fatty bumbum' from the 70's song
!!! I am wearing size 18 jeans at the mo, some are loose some are ok, another stone & I can wear the 16's I bought! Isn't it CRAZY though how sizes vary, even from the same brand & style? It really p*sses me off, some of my 18's are bigger than some old 20's! I have & a pair of Peter Golding tiger-print jeans in a 16 which look SO tiny at the side of my other 16's I wonder if I'll ever get in them!!! I bought them YEARS ago, (6-8 years ago) in the (vain) hope of getting in them, luckily skinny jeans are back in fashion!!! Though whether at 42 I'll EVER be brave enough, or SKINNY enough to wear them is anyone's guess !
Sorry about the RA, has losing weight helped much? Has the change in diet helped at all & drinking more water?
As a teen I used to volunteer at hyrotherapy sessions at my local swimming pool; though most of the clients were Down's Syndrome; I really enjoyed it, especially as I worked with this cute little boy who I got to catch a tennis ball after starting him with a beach ball, it was so rewarding.
Thanks for the tips, I really HAVE to keep TOTALLY on SS, apart from AAMW, I was good yesterday, and knowing how much CAN be lost if I'm good, like you, has really helped, thanks!!! Size 16 here I come!!!! it will be great if I can fit in them before I see my mum coz it will be the first time in over 20 years I've been the same size as my mum!!!!

Hi Sharon
Oh to be a size 16 you have done marvelous keep it up. You will feel great when you are a 14 and smaller than your Mum ~ now there's a thought !!
I am a 24 bottom and an 18 top ~ only in some designs just like you it drives me mad the variations in clothe sizes. My friend told me yesterday that one company as a sales ploy put all there jeans at one size less so if you are a 18 you can get into a size 16 ~ they do that on purpose to increase sales and it really works (not sure what company she cant remember silly moo)
RA not really improved with the weight loss but I can certainly get around better with less blubber he he I too got to hydro every week and have seen some amazing changes in people especially the post accident and post stroke patients ~ they arrive with very very little mobility and leave almost back to normal. How rewarding must a physio's job be.
At 42 you positively must get your tiger print jeans out and show off your new figure. If I ever get to a 12 or 14 (oh my god how far away is that ~ oh well dream on Shar Shar he he) I am going to wear mini skirt and over the knee boots and look just like pretty woman and find myself a rich Richard Gere ~ even though I am 50 ~ sod it he he
Dont think my hubby will be to impressed with that one ~ it will keep him on his toes anyway
Weekend nearly over ~ i struggle at the weekends its more difficult dont you think
Take care of you

SICK SICK SICK
Hi all,
I am having a horrible day ~ sick sick sick. When I came back from day out yesterday was sick on the way home in our motorhome (thats never happened before but it was a bit stuffy)
Since then I feel horrible ~ I have never been sick since being on CD and I think its because your stomach is so empty its horrible
Been in bed all day feeling very sorry for myself
Just got up and done ironing and had a bar but feeling sick again
Any tips to help a poor fat lady with sickness
~ please dont say drink more water as I am floating around already

I am on diclofenac too and have been for 5 years now. Also on Lefluedamide (sorry cant spell medical he he) as that is an anti RA drug and is supposed to halt the progression of my diesease and stop any more permanent damage to my joints. My diclofenac just reduced inflammation and makes my life bareable.
The senior nurse said I have to come off the diclofenac and I have managed to get it down to one a day now ~ but when I stop taking it ~ my life is back on hold and I am almost bedridden with the pain ~ so sod that. I am living for today and worring about my liver when I AM OLD.
Back to hospital next week and I am going to say thanks for the advise but no thanks ~ I want to be with my family and grandchildren and travel the world whilst I am young (ish 50 he he) Its my life and my choice and thats that
Its strange how this site is ~ many of the woman have all different kinds of problems to deal with ~ men ~ emotional or health problems and discuss and share there experiences very openly
Thank god for minimims thats what I say !!

Hi everyone
Not very well ~ had a phone call from hospital this morning to tell me to stop taking my medication for my RA as my white blood count is seriously low. Then my own GP rang and said I had to go immediately to the surgery to see him
Because my white blood count is so low I have picked up an infection in my blood and that is why I feel so sh..y and so I am on antibiotics (had an injection) for a week.
Doc wanted to put me on the club for a month but I told him I dont get paid (he says thats very bad for the length of time I worked for the company) any way he said not to go back to work until medi kicks in and I have seen him next week
When he examined me on the table my temp was up and when I got up I went all faint again ~ its funny its just like being pregnant. So back home now and am going to have a little kip and hopefully the world will stop spinning
I will be back to usual self next week and stop this rotten old moaning
luv luv

HI all
Just got up and feeling a bit better
I am going to shift my fat ass and take the dog a walk as I cant stay in bed its horrible
When I have got rid of this infection I have got a choice to make
1. Take medication to control my RA but get the side effect
2. Come off the medication and try to live a normal life
The trouble is when I come off the medication my joints swell and become extremely painful ~ cant really work and really struggle doing day to day tasks
I am going to try and come of Medi you never know I might not be so bad now I have lost some weight
This going to be my last negative post promise
You only have to read some of the posts on this site ~ some people are going through some horrible times and I need to count my blessings and get on with it ( sorry to waffle but I am giving myself a telling off)
Weigh day tomorrow and I will see the lovely Ann ~ hope she is not nice to me or I will start crying. Feel like I have had a good weight loss this week so lets see
Keep up the amazing work peeps and catch up with you soon with a spring in my step
GO SHAR SHAR
