Couch Patrol

Yep, still checking in from the couch. I've had quite the run with a respiratory crap disease, and I think I can honestly say I've never been this sick before. Today is the fourth day that I've missed with work, which is a record for me. I really have no idea what I'm sick with, because it is the combination of things- like a nasty head cold, plus inflamed tonsils, sore throat, hacking cough, body aches. Its like a mutant cold/flu.

The food thing has been strange this weekend too, I think the majority of my calories have come in from NyQuil and Theraflu. And can I just say, I'm so glad I sprung for the premium toilet paper last time I went shopping? We were out of Kleenex by day two of this nastiness, but the Quilted Northern Ultra Plush has been a little bit of softness in this miserable hacking week. lol

I'm seriously 0.2lb away from the 10-pound mark, and I'm so excited! As soon as I hit the mark, I'm having another giveaway. Any suggestions, the one thing that you would love to see as a giveaway?? Leave me a comment, let me know!

Hope you are all having a phenomenal week- here's to lots of pounds lost! :-)

Minor Setback...




I'm writing this from a horizontal position on the couch- actually half the couch, as Max the labrador has the other half. He's such a snuggle-bunny, he likes to keep me company.

I feel like absolute poo. I went into work this morning for a meeting (I actually have this week off!) and just felt sluggish and tired, and my stomach is kind of upset. My husband had a nasty stomach bug last weekend (yes, our anniversary!) with a fever, nausea, diarrhea, vomiting, the whole nasty lot. He did lose four pounds, but even with that I'm really hoping that I'm not getting sick!

I'm pushing the water today, and have only halfway written off getting on the treadmill- I'm going to take a nap, and hopefully feel better when I wake up.

The progress so far- I weighed in at 236.5 today, which is down a half pound. I know you're not supposed to weigh every day, but the small victories are sometimes all that keeps me going! lol

And I have followers! Thank you for being my followers! I appreciate you joining me on the journey... :-)
