Hi,
I have not been to well over the weekend, and then been up the wall with builder, plumbers, and workmen all surveying the house ready to start work next week, so this update is running a little late again. Normally I cant be bothered doing anything I can put off, but all week I have been eager to update, after a few people have commented about being hooked on reading. I did call them nosy, but in reality I know there not, and that's why I'm doing this, hopefully so people can associated, and relate to me on different levels. I have had 3 emails of complete strangers, all spurring me on, and each time I get an email, a message on guestbook, or someone commenting on the forum, it really helps me keep focused.
Last night I managed at last to return to the Gym, Like normal I could not do much, but last night was even worse, I never even went on the bike. the main reason for not doing the bike was my legs, for years now I have had these "things" on my legs, kind of like blisters they are, caused and made worse when I try to walk. most of the time there not a problem, but some times they bleed, there like blisters, but with blood not water in, when they bleed its actually better. things like walking and if I have lose pants on, that pinch my legs make them swell up more with blood. its not really a great problem, but last night it was really sore, and its not a nice thing for people to see either, actually its one of the most embarrassing things out of all the problems I have related to the weight. oh well there you go, its out in the open for the world to know about, I actually know this is a common problem in people with weight problems, but its never talked about. I'm going to search for some info now, hold on... OK so after an hour of reading I think its probably some form of cellulitis. not really sure though. but it can be painful when it swells up.
so there we have it, my medical problem for this week, caused by being over weight
apart form that, and being a bit ill the weekend, I have not been so bad, the food I have been eating has not been the best again, but I have not really been eating over the weekend, with having no energy to move, today I have had bran flakes, and then some chicken at dinner, so already I'm having a better food day than the last week has been. I have bought some potatoes, and some meat for tea, also some nice bread to have sandwiches this week when I cant be bothered cooking. over the next month though, I will be unable to even get in the kitchen, with no gas next week, then no water for three weeks after, I don't know what I'm going to do. does anyone have any food ideas when I'm unable to cook? at night times I can use microwave, but the whole kitchen will be a mess and dirty, since there pulling walls done. cant wait till December now, so its all done.
oh well, ranting over for now, back later to let you know what I have had for tea, bye for now.
Well for tea I made 2 chicken burgers, with small SF chicken breasts from asda, and some small granary bread, I then took them out with me down to the local bonfire and gave one to my brother because they where not nice, he gave it to the dog then. I ended up in my mums and had some corned beef mash instead.
had a good night being out for a couple of hours, and its now 1am and I'm just off to bed, night all.
