I can barely walk!

Posted by Bridgette at 7:12 PM
Well after a good start to Thursday with a 2.2kg loss bringing my total up to 27.2kg (and ALMOST the halfway point!!) by lunch time I was in agony. A few years back I had trouble with 2 buldging discs in my back, well they're giving me hell again.

I had been babysitting and had to ring my friend in tears to pick her daughter up as I couldn't lift her, and also had to ring my mother in law to come to my rescue. I was a blubbering mess! Friday I went off to the doctor, he confirmed the buldging disc and that it's putting pressure on a nerve which is sending the pain down my leg. Anti inflammatories, pain killers and stretches to do .. the joys!

I spent Friday eating, although I did do some damage, only 8 points over is not too bad considering the mood I was in! Today has been like that too, at only midday I have 11 points left, and I am planning to save 4 .. so lunch is going to be 0point veg soup with maybe a tin of bean mix through it to make it filling, then a 4 or 5 point dinner to try and reduce yesterdays damage!

I still can barely walk (I know i'm whinging, i'm a terrible patient!) and had to get Sam to help me shower and dress this morning ... you know it's love when your man will happily dry off you legs and toes and put your knickers on for you!

Oh, also for the first time since starting WW I am actually ahead of mum in total loss!! by about 400grams, but still, it's the first time i've been ahead in our little competition! It's all in fun, but it certainly does provide good motivation!

We're also due for measurements again, last month saw the total loss as 100.5cm, so when my back is better we will do those again, and hopefully see some good results there too!

How are you all going? I'd love to see some comments from those of you following my blog ... I'm still amazed anyone is actually reading my ramblings!!

just letting you know your comment box is a little dicky. I worked it out by tabbing through and pressing enter - but it took me a while.
Not sure if it's only me though.

Thanks for that Jess, I had someone who had a problem with it before .. I'll have to look in to it.
