EEEK week 45 (again) and feeling fantastic just a little
shell shocked to be honest that the time seems to have gone so fast.- only 7 more
weeks and I’ll officially be 1-year post round 2.
I have my January bloods scheduled to be taken on Friday and
it’s just dawned on me that I didn’t actually post the results from the December
bloods that had to be redone at the start of January which raised the potential
Thyroid problem (apologies for that) so
here they are :
After last weekend’s strenuous activities, I have worked
hard this week to not work
hard at all at anything except work (who insist on these things funnily enough)
The reason for the lack of weight loss last Monday has now
been identified as ‘women things’ (apologies guys but it happens) and despite a
moderately indulgent weekend I’m hoping for a loss tonight. I’m also now taking
the new med the doctor has given me Tranexamic Acid 500mg which apparently is
an anti-clotting type medication so I’ve send the information for that off to
the Lovely Dr C and the Lovely Margaret to give them a heads up on the off
chance that it does something funky with the platelet counts in my monthly
bloods – wouldn’t want to be accidentally diagnosed with ITP – LOL
You probably think I’m a more than a little paranoid / mad
for researching the above (as I do with everything) and letting the team know,
but for me it’s incredibly important to be knowledgeable about what I’m taking,
it’s possible interactions and proactively telling my team about that. The
control freak project manager in me needs to know that I’ve not left anything
to chance hoping other people have checked, double checked and then checked
again. I guess it’s self-interest above everything else but it works for me.
After the non-event blizzard last week here in the UK we
have just settled into a cycle of bloody cold. Minus figures overnight and
barely making it into positive numbers during the day. We have had sunshine and
‘grey’ lots of ‘grey’ so the frost doesn’t melt during the day we just have
more frost on top of the old. English winters really are quite disappointing non-events
for the most part.
I’m not yet signed off by the physio after the ‘kinda busted
but not really’ arm event and my subsequent slide down the stairs (again) event
– I didn’t help that much last weekend with the paining and furniture moving
but I am pretty fed up of it now and wish it would go away.
We have valentines booked at a lovely local restaurant to
look forward to in the coming weeks and between now and then I need to hitch my
substantial arse to the Slimming World Wagon, stay on plan and try not to fall
off.
Keep well, keep antibac’d and keep going
Much love xxx
