Setbacks with sugar

DID I manage a sugar free Saturday? Not really. Skipped breakfast before work, worked till 12 midday. Popped out fir lunch with Neil (Coronation Chicken Sandwich with salad and some crisps along with a large skinny latte.)
Hmmmm not too bad. 2 Fab lolly ices today. Tea was cottage pie, homemade with 2 small slices Rye bread and butter. And 1 lemon mousse, diet.
Could have been worse.

Hoping to at least do a short walk tomorrow. Shame really that Neil can barely walk anywhere (severe pain in his legs, knees and back). He is very much aware that he needs to lose weight, this is not however the sole cause of his pains for which he takes a lot of medications for. Not being able to move a lot does hinder weight loss. I know how much pain he is in and he rarely goes on about it, I see the pain in his face every day.

Red dress which I rather like but feel I look very BIG in it.

Ooops side view

Just as bad front view. There are much worse photos of me but I refuse to even look at them – too depressing!

Gum/mouth still hurts like crap. Had it packed in dentist today. Got antibiotics.
Dr L, one of my Gp’s has referred me on to do a 10 week weight management course, starting October probably.
Still hoping to lose weight in meantime.
Is it painkiller time yet? OMG I’ve got another hour to wait till is safe to take more.

Physio day

20130724-060749 PM.jpg
Decided to get a tattoo for my 50th birthday! No, it’s not a mid-life crisis! Been thinking about it for years, now’s the time to do it!
Though about tattooing ‘Remember Diet’ on my wrist!
Went to physio for my frozen shoulder earlier after work. Last week I had accupuncture, this week was deep tissue massage…….painful.
Reading my old Cathys Weightloss Diary (available on Kindle and in colour paperback and black n white paperback. I was funny back then even if I do say so myself!!!!!! It was online from 2001 tp 2012.
Off to a friends tonight for a coffee. J is making a chicken curry for later. Yummy.
