Days 161 - 164

My last blog post was a bit miserable because my poor knee gave up on Wednesday and I was feeling really sorry for myself. I missed a day's work and had to spend the next two days doing only a little light exercise. When my knee gets painful, which is not too often these days thankfully, I find the best way to deal with it is a slow stroll and some very gentle exercise rather than complete rest otherwise it seizes up and it takes longer to stop hurting. I went for a wonder to try and get a bra that fits me but after trying on lots and taking home a couple which I had to exchange, I gave up completely. I think I'll just have to make do with my half dozen ill fitting bras for the time being until I settle down into a size that is actually manufactured by humans, maybe that'll be after my TOTM, who knows. I'm not willing to spend days trying to buy simple underwear, I just hope my spine doesn't snap before then because my bust hasn't got any smaller yet, even after losing all this weight. What a swizz!!

I'm feeling horribly pre-menstrual, so horrible in fact, even the boyfriend has run away for the weekend. He's been off work again this week and my diet has gone a bit more awry than usual, what with the PMS and all. I've had a lot to do this week and I was hoping it would help me shift a few pounds but my eating has been bad, I feel all bloated and nasty due to the hormones, my sleep pattern has gone a bit crazy again and I've put on 1lb since my last weigh-in.


Boyfriend's absence has given me a chance to eat sensible stuff for the day, easily within 810kcals rules, and hopefully tomorrow will be similar. If I can keep the diet going at that sort of level until my next CDC meeting on Wednesday, I think I might actually lose some weight!
