Today I had an epiphany. I think it’s a combination of my first before and after photos and also the time to acknowledge the existence of Frank!  So I have been beating myself up with me still seeing the old me in the mirror and I’ve realised what is actually happening. The issue is then in fact now at all. […]

Very quiet and sedentary today as I was house bound with a sick miserable little man. I worked from home between sneaking in Mummy cuddles and love.   Food was ok Fluids were ok Exercise was non-existing but it is what it is. I have had to call on the sleeve brains trust for those that have lived through a […]

Weigh in Wednesday is back! You little bloody ripper!! While I have celebrated lots of little wins along the way. Today I get to celebrate my next scale victory! I have hit exactly my second weight goal. This week – 1.3kg Since surgery – 39.3kg Total – 58.2kg I find it so hard to believe I am 1.8kg off of […]

Tuesday is my only day of the week I get any downtime or me time. So after doing all my domestic goddess duties I decided it was time to break in my new shoes.  I have also been eyeing off the duckpond walking track just around the corner so thought today would be the day I tried it out. In […]

A trip to the dentist this morning has made me behind the eightball all day. I couldn’t feel my mouth until about 1pm and the rest of my day I was in back to back meetings. So both my fluids and nutrition have been horrific. Catch up is not and easy game to play any more now that Percy has […]

Sunday is out only family day of the week. We did plan on going for a walk around the duckpond just around the corner. Plans were for oiled as it was bucketing down with rain. Instead we went to Marion and wondered around, had lunch in the food court. I continue to be a cheap date with my soup only […]

Started my day at 5.30 this morning. After finally somewhat catching up on sleep I woke up and felt pretty good but somewhat guilty that my exercise has been known existent since my PT session on Tuesday. So despite being bloody cold, pitch black with everyone in the house asleep off I went on a morning walk. My speed was […]

Today was my first carbohydrate counting day which coincidentally was the first hungry day I have ever had since surgery. I manage to achieve my four portions of carbs target, however this was done by having bread thins toastie for breakfast and one half Thins with soup for dinner. Not sure how I will manage this on a daily basis […]

I was nervous all day today as I had my next scheduled appointment with the dietician this afternoon. Even though I know I am doing all the right things nutritionally I just can’t help but feel nervous.  Work flew by and I was super productive after having eight hours sleep as Nanna Noels was to the rescue and I got […]
