Day 22 - Thursday, 9th October 2008

It's been a while since I blogged. Is that a proper word, "blogged"? Eh, never mind anyway, I have never been one for 100% correctness!!! Again, "correctness"? Oh, right I am going to stop it now.
Anyway, my absence of late, was solely due to lack of energy, which in turn was due to me being stupidly ill. I mean, honestly, I felt HORRIBLE!
It started with a cold, which I can deal with. But following that, every foodpack I had just made me feel so sick. I was down to 3 foodpacks a day and barely any water because anything I swallowed made me want to pass out or throw up. In fact, it was so bad that I had to cancel going out with my ex-work colleagues on Saturday night. I was supposed to go to Jongleurs and instead I spent the evening wrapped up in a blanket on the sofa watching Alan Carr. Don't get me wrong, I love Alan Carr, he's hysterical. But going out with the girls would have been SO much more fun!
So I've battled through work and through the weekend and finally made it to my Lighter Life session last night. I knew I was dehydrated and because it was lady's time this week, and I had been ill, I felt really bloated. I was expecting a gain, I was hoping to stay the same and I was wishing for 5 pounds to take me up to the 1 and a half stone mark. I lost 4 pounds. So in total, I have now lost 20 pounds. I am really happy, only a pound to go for 1 and a half stone. In the meantime, I am proud that I have lost 1 stone and 6 pounds in 3 weeks!!! Wow!
I do feel like I am getting into the swing of things, it is becoming more "normal" now. I just need to get back into that routine I had before the sicky time!!
I tried THE RED JEANS on! They get past my ass now. But they are not quite closing yet!! I'm hopeful I will be in them for Halloween! Just hope they fit for Halloween and they are not too big by that time. Now that would be funny!
