AM OFF TO SLIMMING WORLD TONIGHT,FEELING NERVOUS !!!

hope it was OK paula
just quick look in before work today i sat and worked my way through a pile of old paperwork yesterday amazing how it mounts up

Hi ~~~

Paula , your Cholesterol level is v.good, I don't know much about sugar levels ( 2 of my cousins are Type 2 Diabetics ) ,and from what I recall them saying that is a good reading.
I found Slimming world great, I suppose it can be a bit daunting going on your own the first time. I sure you were OK tho,peeps are all there for the same reason ,and the class organisers have been 'there' themselves.
A few of us went from work the first time I went. Lost 2 and half stone, relapsed after a while but lost weight again thro brisk walking when I gave up work.
They were a lovely bunch that went there, tho I often only went to weigh, used to chat to most of them when queuing.:)

No rest 'for the wicked 'Maz ' still working after schools out., I know it's a different job, hope you're enjoying it.
Have you all your work done now on the house ?
Decorating after takes up so much time too !

I haven't been on the PC for a few days, we had the Aber meet on Monday, and we were standing about a bit for 2 peeps to turn up , then I was standing around on the way home as I'd just missed a bus, got home and after tea just went bed cos I was shattered.
My hip gradually got worse I kept dosing myself up and doing shorter walks,but got up 5.30am Thurs morning was in a lot of pain, whilst taking pain killers in the kitchen I had this sudden sharp pain shot up my back and down my right leg.. I screamed, never felt anything like it before.I managed to get to the dining room next door to sit down. I eventually got back to bed, but could hardly walk.
Fortunately hubby has been off work this week, so was able to take me to the Dr's later that morning, she say's I've probably torn a muscle, she just prescribed painkillers almost the same as I was taking before, these have a small amount of Codeine in them, hot and cold compresses , and to 'potter' around.
Hobble is the best thing I can do at the mo, from room to room, Then fall on the bed for a rest. Just a well we have a bungalow.
Any ' walking / hobbling ' feels as if someone has attacked my knee and hip with a hammer !
Hubby's done all the work around the house, he'll probably have to do the shopping tomorrow alone !, Dau is off next week so if there is no improvement it will be down to her, otherwise they won't get fed! Simple as.
Going to have a quick look at the boards and then off to bed.

Nite all~
luv

poor you sandie i do sympathise with you the pain barrier is the hardest to work through i think

Afternoon all~~

Back and leg are still the same unfortunately, the worst is when I am shuffling the pain sometimes shots down the front of my leg and 'explodes' in my knee as if someone is hitting it with a hammer.I have to lie down then for it to recover.

It gone over cloudy now, but hubby has put 2 lines of washing out for me. I haven't set foot out side the door since Thurs morning.
This computer chair is probably the best in the house for me to sit on cos the back can be adjusted for me to sit upright , and of course can be highered or lowered.

How did the Slimming world go Paula.?
Maz , you didn't say whether the work was now finished around the house.

Hope you are both having a good weekend:)

Luv
Sandie.x

morning all
Sandie the building is all done i am now taking my time sorting all the cupboards and decorating as I go my aim this holiday is to get my room done .The back bedroom is done which was dau is now the guest room /gym that is complete
even the loft is organised as an extra storage space here too

morning all almost i have not eaten yet lol

evening all, Slimming world is ok, although I can't get my head around working everything out yet. It's free food, super free food ,healthy extras and syns lol.
To be honest a lot of the recipes I have seen so far are just what I cook anyway.Will try my best anyway.
So sorry to hear about your hip and knee Sandie, hope the enforced rest means it will soon heal. It is hard getting the balance right between rest and not seizing up isn't it? Take care chick xxx
Our Rochelle is away on holiday so I have to go and see to the guinea pigs each day this week.
~~~~~~~~~~~~waves to Maz. x

just seen the thread about Stan Clarke dying. Is that our Stan?

Hi Paula ~~

I hope not !....he popped in on the Welsh Thread in My and last posted about a fortnight ago. Well I think this Stan is the one that was on a thread of yours in the past, he lives in mid Wales, but his name is not Clarke I'm sure.
Where did you read that ?

Sandie.x

Condolences to the family of Stan Clarke.

Paula~~

Found the Stan Clarke thread.

Our Stan, if it he the one you call our Stan used to who used to join in some the the A to Z and the 5 word story thread, is I believe the one from Mid Wales,he is now on the Welsh thread and is Researching:-
Dennis ,Measham .Blount , Polesworth-Baddesley. Taylor kent ,
He's started on their in about May his last post was a fortnight ago., He doesn't post regularly


The Stan Clarke that recently tragically died was researching :-
Clarke/Hughes/Sewell Birmingham

I think they are 2 different Stans .
My condolences go out to Stan Clarke's family .

Sandie.x

Sad news for Stan and his family
Paula enjoy the guinea pigs we only have a rabbit now and two cats thankfully .
keep resting Sandie as Paula says it is getting a balance really

was told today our Stan is Dennis not Clarke.
maz. I just noticed you said 2 cats, does that mean Gizmo turned up?

HI, hope Sandie is feeling a lot better. Maz, I'm not sure because of having grandkids a lot but Mondays are probably the best bet.xx
