Gm everyone @trooworld- How did the Condo looking go? Do you get brownie points for going to voluntary work events?? Does it get added to personal time to be taken later? @its_cleo - Unfortunately this news was after the wrist surgery :(. Staycations are nice, I find, I spend too much on things around the house. Today, I…

Good morning everyone Today I meet with the surgeon again - hopefully everything is on track for my hand. The foot is not a weight bearing bone, so it will have to heal itself, hence the pain. The cast they made me (not plaster), make my thumb ache, so I went to a chemist and bought a wrist support - wonder if they are…

Happy Easter everyone :) @trooworld - They are currently advertising the weighted blanket on TV. They also use alot of blankets after you have had surgery and are in recovery, for the same purpose (less restlessness etc). A think walking through the farmers market is exercise. Am I gathering from your menu plan, you are…

If it was a lolly n my hand, I wold have eaten it on the way down to protect it (LOL) @prisoner2food - So glad to hear from you and that you are on the road to recovery. I had the same issue with my work and…

I am glad you are slowly getting better. @trooworld – Glad you got through work – do you guys anti flu vaccination over there? If so, did you get it or is this just a whole pile of different bugs? Today we are off in the caravan for a…

GM everyone @theslightedgeforever – How are you feeling now? Are you getting any better? Have you managed to stop comfort eating? @trooworld – How did you go at work? Did you manage the whole day? Did hubby make your homemade soups for you? @TeresaW2010 – Congratulation on your loss. What a lovely thing to be told you are…

Good morning everyone Well my GD (Grandad) passed over peacefully yesterday – less than 24 hours after his major stroke. It is a 5 hour plane journey from Perth to Sydney Aus, so all of us still in Perth were kept updated by phone. My Grandad was 98 when he died and he had been married for 81 years. That leaves my Nanna…

@fiesty_cheese – Welcome aboard, It will be nice to get to know you @theslightedgeforever – Congrats on the loss 😊 Glad you are hanging in there.

Good morning This morning I am off to see the orthopaedic surgeon. I am hoping to get my stitches out and see what he has to say about my ankle and return to walking/ work etc etc. Please keep me in your thought for some good news. Medium sticker for me as once again I did not make the steps. @theslightedgeforever - "Just…
-
@teresaw2010 – Ooh – now I understand, but you still need to stuff them with lollies (that would be a danger zone for me). I am glad you have found a plan that works for you, keeping an eye on sugars and sodium is excellent. Do you use MFP to do that? @cbabie – How far are you into the 30 day challenge? After a week, you…
-
Morning everyone @theslightedgeforever – Ah… I see – you use it instead of water. I am a water girl when I am being good and a diet coke girl when I falloff the wagon. Although I do manage to get a couple of diet cokes in each day. Something to add on I suppose. Does Circus Night have the wizards like Harry Potter or is it…

Morning all Off today for my 2 week xray - ( I hate the fact that the xray person cannot share the results) Thankyou @theslightedgeforever - I will reread the pages and my written notes today and I will go from there. @theslightedgeforever - About your "moonshine" is that something you drink throughout the day or just at…

Hi everyone Still here - just reading mostly cause typing is slow with one hand on the keyboard. More bruises are showing everyday :( Off to the occupation therapist shortly. So no exercise, mainly sitting with leg raised, hand raised. No steps that warrant mentioning As to heathy eating - I think I need a kick up the butt…

hi everyone back home now - surgery went well. finding it very difficult to do anything without my dominant hand. typing with my left is so slow. I will be scarce on hear and probably just to let you know I am alive. but for you entertainment (do no look if squeamish) after having my arm pulled as the bones in my arm…

Hi everyone - short and sweet as I am writing this with my non dominant hand. Had a bad fall yesterday. Broke my left ankle bone and 2 bones in my right arm. The bone that runs along the thumb and the bones that run from elbow to wrist. Currently in hospital awaiting surgery. Catchup in a few days

My 100 day plan went out the window, so I have started today from where I left off before I got sick. @theslightedgeforever – Congrats on your loss – well done. I do love your ticker. Great on the big…

Good morning everyone @TeresaW2010 – I find the same when I do a carb load after eating simply, I actually feel like I have a hangover – sluggish, headachy – so I feel for you. @trooworld – Fingers crossed for you for WI 1475 US is equal to 20?? AUD. The apartment that I linked you to is 1638 AUD with the common…

Hi everyone It is late in the afternoon here, the day slipped away from me. @gemwolf110 – Did you end up selling the dress? Are you selling everything to buy something else or is it just a declutter? @theslightedgeforever - The WI day was a loss 1.1 pounds – could have been more if I was more diligent. Do you think that…

Good morning everyone I did do another post whilst I was away – but it seems to have gone into the ethernet somewhere. Well I am back now, having a relaxing day before heading off to work tomorrow. @theslightedgeforever – I went over calories from the steak meal onwards, but tracked every single bite so that earnt me a…

Hi everyone @theslightedge - we have our own caravan, so I have brought everything I want to eat. I prepacked my lunch for when we had a break . The group went to the pub last night and I had steak and salad - so though unexpected I made wise choices. The caravan has everything stove, microwave, fridge, freezer,washing…

@theslightedgeforever – So glad you knee is okay and you were able to keep on your plan. @cbabie – We are all going to do something without thinking, but you stopped when you realised what you done.
