Starvation works!

Well now, who’d a thunk it? Starvation reduces weight. Seeing how the people in Gaza are suffering under constant lack of food because of the Israeli invasion. The Israeli refusal to allow sufficient food into the area… let alone the disgusting bombing of a *relief* convoy is a war crime and the lack of military … More Starvation works!

Disaster…

It seems impossible to me, but impossible or not, my weight has increased to a crazy level of 136.50. I’ve clearly been overeating, but I can’t see how I could have eaten to the extent I gained almost 2 kilos! I’m at a bit of a loss to work out how I got here or … More Disaster…

Bit sad really.

Part of the rationale behind the urge to have the surgery was the hope that by cutting back drastically on my weight I’d have a new lease of life. The “lighter me” would be able to walk more, do more in general and have a heightened quality of life. This hasn’t really happened. The Pulmonary … More Bit sad really.

Oh, you Clot!

So where have I been for days? Well “coughing my heart up” is the closest descriptor I can come up with. It’s been so hard to keep breathing I’ve not been interested in doing anything other than sitting quietly and hoping for the best. Maybe I should explain. After the surgery, everything was going well. … More Oh, you Clot!

Oooh… trendy!

At least I seem to be creating a trend of sorts. Maybe the effects of the falls, and the episode of being in the hospital, along with the pulmonary embolism etc, etc have finally cleared and my body is ready to continue its onward descent towards a ‘healthy’ weight. Ok, again not a massive loss … More Oooh… trendy!

Half a kilo!

My shenanigans yesterday and the day before which resulted in me not actually eating anything, or rather keeping what I ate down, have resulted in a weight loss of 700 grams overnight. Ok to a large extent, that’s handy, but really not what I need to be doing. I’m supposed to be keeping my protein … More Half a kilo!

Past blast!!

Just read a post I made from way back on Sept 26th 2007 called “No cake for me?” the reason I laughed was bemoaning the fact that there was a lot of birthday cake around that looked good enough to eat… but I was on one of my interminable, and ultimately hopeless, diets. In retrospect maybe … More Past blast!!

And…. stop.

Same weight today as yesterday, and still higher than the day before logging in at 143.1 kilos. Not a lot to add, to be honest. My lethargy remains even tho I did very little yesterday. I want to go for a walk but I’m concerned if I go out, I won’t get back! Still, I … More And…. stop.

A bit fast maybe?

Last Thursday, when I fasted for pre-op, I weighed in at 150.2 kilos. Today I weigh in at 145.80 kilos. Even allowing for the fact a lot must have been water, nearly 6 kilos still seems like a lot to lose in one week. However it *does* explain why I spent yesterday all bar comatose. … More A bit fast maybe?
