Struggle Street.

Four days left to go and I’m finding it *really* hard to control my eating even for these last few days. Yesterday I went out with my wife for a short river cruise and then we went for lunch. I ate way too much. Got home in the evening already bloated from lunch… and ate … More Struggle Street.

Five Days Left

Just five days left of my ‘normal’ life left, and then… we’ll see. I think some of the trepidation is based on wondering if I’ll be able to look after myself properly and not forget to do essential things, like drink constantly, and even *eat* if the urge has disappeared as much as I’m told … More Five Days Left

Oh Dear Lord

Not saying much about yesterday. Yesterday was an utter disaster. I went out to Centrepoint Tower with the daughters as a final treat and ate so much meat I could hardly walk back to the car. I weighed after I came home… bad move… and I weighed again in the morning… not much of a … More Oh Dear Lord

Seven Days to Go

I have to go the physio this morning. I also have to drop into the chemist for the stuff they told me to get. This includes Pico Prep… which I *hate*. The stuff tastes foul and the effects are as well. There are lists of instructions on what to do before the operation and what … More Seven Days to Go

Bran Noo Dai.

Nothing much to report today. Walked around the local oval last night with the daughter and dogs until it rained. Got home and my daughter made a nice meal with steak and salad. Had a couple of slices of ham and turkey to go with it (slightly over the top but it was mostly protein). … More Bran Noo Dai.

Yet More Madness

Yesterday was a total disaster, I suddenly got ravenously hungry and ate almost whatever I could eat quickly and easily. Even in the middle of this food orgy I did try to restrict myself to appropriate food, but in greater quantities than I should have. I realised belatedly that I’d forgotten to take my Ozemoic, … More Yet More Madness

It’s not funny.

So yesterday was a disaster. My health was in dire starts with my eyes hurting, exhaustion crippling me, and had what I can only call ‘ill-ease’. Sleep at night was difficult and I had to sleep again during the day. In the end, I figured maybe I was just ‘starving’ so I let my guard … More It’s not funny.

So…. today?

Bit of a problem really. Had my shake late, but in time to make me full. Had soup for dinner with a cuppa. So far so good. I’d even taken the dog for a walk… not too long, but long enough after yesterday Had an apple in the afternoon, and then it all went sideways. … More So…. today?

A day in the life.

After yesterday’s adventure in overexertion, I think I might take it a little easier today. There’s a lot to do indoors which I want to get done before I attack the mess which is our patio, and I *mean* mess. If it was even slightly better I’d post a picture. Maybe mess isn’t even strong … More A day in the life.
