Good morning good people,
I hope you’re all well. I wasn’t here yesterday but I’ve read you all. Nicola, sorry to see you going I want you to stay to tell me how those 30inch waist jeans looking on you for my ‘hypothetical’ party!
Reading all your comments and people going through ups and downs makes me feel good. Good about myself that I’m not alone in the ups and not alone in downs. Also it is very encouraging seeing how you all, who fall, rise up like Phoenix and being stronger and better regardless how short or long the fall is.
Verano, what a positive few days BS readings! That in its own is a very good answer to your WHY I think. Only a third day but you can clearly see it in writing that you’re doing a b!00dy good job. JGwen’s post and bringing her WHY into this forum was a blessing in disguise to us all to get us back and keep us on straight and narrow with the objective embedded firmly in our minds.
I haven’t had my FBS tested since after my little girl was born after I had the gestational diabetes but am thinking to get it booked with the GP (I’m sure she’d be also very pleased seeing me losing some weight) just to see how I’m doing. I hope it would come with reasonably low readings but do not want to work myself up just yet about either high or low numbers until I get the test date booked. I’ve never been diabetic or pre-diabetic but with my 50:50 chances anything may have changed over the past 5 years and maybe her check up on me will be a good thing too.
I also find the ‘side effects’ of WOE a little bit ‘disturbing’. This morning I woke up 1 hour (!) before my alarm, even though went to bed at 10.30pm and woke up at 4.50am! I knew waking up before the alarm was happening but one hour before, haven’t had that before. I put one load of washing on, folded the laundry and watched Hercule Poirot we recorded while I was ironing! And all this way before 6am. I think I need to do something about it before my husband gets used to all things done before he lifts his finger 🙂
I wish you all a wonderful Friday and although sunny still a bit too windy and cold for my liking but feel pretty warm inside with all of the above.
All the best,
S.
