I’m hoping today will see me back on an even keel and it’ll be plain sailing from here on without the storms that have been battering my resolve for the past week. I managed to get some 8 hours of sleep last night and feel a lot better for it (even tho the sleep score … More Back on an even keel.
I decided it might be a good idea to make a note of my weight loss journey. I keep forgetting what the previous measurements were so I’ve made up a page with a small table that I can note my daily weight on it along with the BP (twice a day).
So for the past few days, I’ve had no idea what was happening with my calorie count. I was concerned that the loss of control (and losing track of what I should be eating and when) meant I could have increased my weight instead of losing it. However, I discovered this morning my weight was … More So after all that… what?
A curate is pretty much a junior priest in the Anglican church. As such they are notoriously badly paid so couldn’t be too choosy where they stayed while on ‘rotation’ through a diocese. The title comes from an old ‘joke’ in which a curate was given a dodgy boiled egg for his breakfast. When the … More A Curates Egg?
Yesterday was awful in respect of the diet anyway. I ate way too much and even did some minor ‘picking’ of food stored in the fridge. For the past day or two I’ve written about the strain I’ve been feeling, but really thought that, overall, I was still doing ok. Full of optimism, I decided … More That Was an Awful Day.

As you may have read I *really* struggled all morning and tho I tried to avoid eating too much, I ended up having Cauliflower and bean soup for lunch, I ended up accompanying it with two pieces of toasted bread with a piece of bacon inside. That kept … More What a tough day!
I have been rambling on in here about the Gastric Sleeve operation for weeks as if there’s nothing else going on in the world that’s of any interest to anyone. And yet, at one time the blog was my primary site for posting all sorts of thoughts and discussion points (not that anyone ever read … More Well I never, well actually I did.
Hot on the heels of the Hungry Hippo post yesterday comes today’s sudden pangs! At 11:15 I suddenly got the most intense hunger pains. No idea why I should get them today and not before but it hit me like a ton of bricks. I ate an apple and drank 200 – 300 ml of … More Yet more hunger, and worse!
And Science says everyone so far has been approaching ‘diet’ and weight loss in the wrong way. Well of course it says that, but that isn’t going to change much in the wide world of desperate people most of whom will read this and say “Won’t work for me” or “It’s too much trouble”.
