yeah thats true, it was just a weekend. and to be honest half the time i was eating yesterday was because i felt ill from swollowing to much phlem and other crap from this cold. I was just tired and probaby being a little hard on myself.

I think the fact that i hadnt been cycling for a week or two is getting too me as well. And the weather hasnt improved any at all for even basic riding, so wind trainer tonight at an easy pace i think.

ok still a bit coughy.
i over ate massivly tonight at dinner at a resteraunt etc. It was awesome

I had GOOD news. Such a good day i bought a lotto ticket!

Firstly, heard back with the job offer. They are gonna offer me 50% more than im earning. Thats a good wage! particularly since its a small town and cheap to live in.
Husband on the other hand got offered a bit less than me .. ok a fair bit less than myself, but a little bit less than hes making now. But overall combined we would still be making a gross profit when both income changes combined. Husband is having a hissy fit about it though, i think mostly because i got offered a significantly higher wage than him.
Anyway, not sure if we will move yet, im keen, kids are keen, only hes not because of this bullshit.

Second good news. I got a call today from the hospital. They have a date for the surgery. 13th August.
Tuesday night on the 12th August, i go into hospital. Weds 13th the op happens and then home on the friday or saturday.
If we move it will be about 2 weeks after this.

Third good news, As we were going out to celebrate all the good newses tonight, my daughter called me into her room for a chat. Apparently her undies are stained a little redish ... shes got her first period! :O
Im like paniced thinking 'shit when was the last time i used a sanitary pad!' i ended up finding some humongous things in a cuboard and she used that whilst we drove to the shops and looked through what options they had. We handled it ok anyway.

So yeah i overate nicely. I had a smoke with a friend. and thats it now for the next 6 weeks. Time to sit on healthy foods and get the lung compacity up.

way to go on the job offer for you and your husband...

A little overeating never killed anyone.. long as you enjoyed it..

wonderful news about the surgery being scheduled.. your brother must be thrilled...

and way to go mom for handing your daughter's period so well

Congrats on landing the job. Hopefully hubby realizes the net outcome puts more money in your pockets! Is it just the pay bothering him or does he not really like the work?

oh no he was all for it until i got offered a better paycheck. hes old fashioned and it takes him a while to get used to the idea that a female isnt helpless and dependant on him etc etc. And to be honest, he kinda married the wrong person if thats what he wanted

Haha, well then I'm sure he'll come around.

Damn I wish I had a sugar mama!

Surgery? what surgery? what did I miss??

donating her kidney to her brother...

sheesh how could you miss that - everyone thinks im some sort of god or something crazy just because i wanted my brother to live :O
Donating is a fact of life for me, but i get embarassed when everyone praises me for it as if its something special. gets on my wick a bit. But i cant wait until hes better

oooo THAT surgery!!! wow, so the time has come huh?? well thats great!! I know you have a tummy tuck thread out there..i thought maybe thats what you meant.

I know that you don't understand why you get praised, your very humble...but it is a big deal hun!

Gets on your wick? lol, thats one i never heard

i think its a british slang that one.
My dad was a POM so probably off him. i ate mostly healthy today, ate a couple chippies at the friday after work drink/eat thing. also unloaded the car of all its gear when the managers came back from a conference (theres a fair load of gear to unload so good workout)

Wow! Congrats on the surgery being scheduled. It must be pretty gratifying to know that the whole reason you started to lose weight is finally a reality. That is pretty neat, if you ask me.

Congrats to your daughter on "getting her womanhood". My mom used to use that phrase and it drove me CRAZY...lol

Hope today finds you well.

panic mode.
I signed up at the gym again for a month. Desperate to be healthy heard and lungs before having the op so as little as possible can go wrong!

Eating the veg and meat and no processed shite or flour diet thing again. Just heaps of vegs and meat!.

Im still going ahead with the surgery, im just a tad paniced that something will go wrong. I want to recover fast and get over it! i dont wanna die or have anything major go wrong.
I think im fine, but yah still panic mode. Not having been able to exercise much for th elast 3 weeks hasnt helped, my lungs still hurt when i do more than 10 mins of cycling so i need to make sure thats a heap better.

Hi there stranger!! I am sorry you are in panic mode! It is a wonderful thing you are doing. Don't panic (I know that won't help) but my friends dad just donated his kidney to his sister and everything went well. He was very nervous too! Surgery is scary! but things will go well for you I am sure. Just breathe!! and cycle
