Ohhhh my……

 Another week has flown by…..and ohh my this one has been a disaster. Had a relapse with this lurgy and spent a couple of days feeling sick again. NOT sick enough to eat myself silly though …… those darn emotions. One day maybe I will STOP 🛑 eating my emotions. 

On top of the lurgy, I walked under a tree and managed to scrape my head on a sharp branch and give myself an egg on the head, as well as a cut plus a headache that lasted 2 days. Not impressed 😏

Anyways all the eating turned into a 2 kilo gain. One day I will learn that food may make me feel better at the time but constant eating doesn’t !! 

Another week…

 The last few days I have been feeling heaps better….thankfully…as it’s been 3 weeks of feeling horrid. I’ve still a bit of a cough but I’m starting to feel human again. Appetite the last few days has been nearly back to normal and the scales showed a 400g gain. I expected that after weeks of hardly eating then starting to eat “normally” again. Haven’t been doing the exercise to burn the calories have I? 

Today I drove down to Busselton to catch up with a cousin. When we went on holidays we took some of her Dad’s ashes with us as Billie-Jean wanted them released in her Dads (and ours) fishing spot. I made up a little scrapbook as a momento for her with some pics and descriptions of where it was and she loved it. Hopefully she will get there one day to see it herself and the remembrance plaque for Ray we put up. 

Whilst in Busselton I asked my brother to join us. I didn’t know if he would, I was hoping he was having a good day and could. Rod has early onset dementia and luckily today was a good day. It’s so bloody hard watching him slowly deteriorate. Thankfully, so far, the horrid disease is slow moving….pray it stays that way. 

Been a big day, think I might have over done it….so it’s goodnight from me. 

Another week

 Slowly getting back to normal….

All tests show NOT Covid, just a horrid virus.  Just about back to normal other than a cough…but even that is better than what it was. Food has some taste again, atm eating what we feel like but watching portions. Hopefully in the next day or so I can start tracking and counting points again. Weigh in this morning…..a sts. 

A face change pic ….. over 3 years difference. 

Sick…

 Most of last week I was sick with a horrid virus. 

It was terrible, killer headache, chills and temps, a cough, lethargy, my body ached right down to the bones and just had no appetite. Food had no taste anyway. 

This week it’s still lingering on…but thankfully I’m moving around now. Still not much of an appetite but I can at least taste it now. 

Anyways a 1.5 k loss

And being sick helped the scales move downwards again. 

Not much else happening really. I’m babysitting William and Summer all morning this week whilst Mum works. Kids are on school holidays atm. 

Dinner to cook, best move. 

No loss…..

 But no gain either……a sts said those demon scales of mine this morning, better than a gain I guess 😏

I haven’t been over indulging, but I haven’t been 100% committed either. AND I haven’t been exercising a lot either, my knee has been giving me a bit of grief so I’ve  not been walking as much. Stayed off it over the weekend and walked this morning and it wasn’t too bad. 

Not much been happening, been a quiet week really. The weather has been glorious so I’ve managed to get out in the garden a bit. Spring has sprung I think. Plants are budding or in flower…and a walk around our block showed that all the native orchids are out.

I love this time of the year 🤩😍

Update

 Ok…Blogger working for me today, tried earlier on in the week and it was having a hissy fit….

Weigh in was Monday….a stay the same on the scales. I nearly had one of those hissy fits myself as I had stuck to the plan. But I didn’t as the previous 2 weeks I’d had good losses….so hopefully this week if I stick to plan I’ll have another good loss…or at least a loss.

Today I think spring has finally sprung here. The sun is shining, the sky is blue. I’ve just had a good walk around my garden and saw some of my succulents are budding, my petticoat daffodils are budding and some of my orchids have flowered ☺️

Little Miss Summers class hosted the last school assembly, they did an awesome job and their little song was just beautiful. She was also awarded a merit certificate for her hard work in the classroom. 

And speaking of her….i must away and have some lunch as I’m due at the school in 45 minutes to pick her and her brother up. 

Another week begins

Another week begins.

Another loss this week of 900g so I’m slowly losing the weight I gained while we were travelling. Still a few more kilos to go yet. I’m back at work a few hours a week again plus I’m jabberwalking with my bestie when I can. Trying to keep motivated but I’m struggling with “jet lag”. Still coming down from the high from our trip. Some days it’s hard to find the motivation to just do ordinary everyday things but each day I’m pushing myself to get out of “holiday mode” and get on with things. 

It’s great to see and be near the grandies again. Soccer was on the weekend so went and watched my boy strut his stuff on the soccer pitch. He’s a great player, love watching him. 

I’ll leave you with some gorgeous scenery…the ranges in the Northern Territory are incredible to drive through.
