Where I'm at

Comment Published at 04:2704:2720 comments20 comments54 Visits54 VisitsReport

First the good news.  I got serious with my weight loss over the last few weeks and I've dropped 3.4 kilos so far.  Yay!

I've definitely been having a bad run health-wise though.  About 2 weeks ago I had to go home from work early with what ended up being diagnosed as vertigo due to an inner ear infection.  I went back to work a week ago and only lasted a couple of hours.  Been home since and still feeling really fatigued and out of it and dizzy when I don't take my medication.

That's about it really.  It just occurred to me I hadn't checked in on my blog for sometime so thought I'd better write something.  Hopefully I'll have some good news soon rather than all these dramatic injuries.

 MySpace and Orkut Congratulations Glitter Graphic - 1 Yiipppeeee, Leith 3.4 kilos.....go girl go !!!!! Knew it would happen sooner or later...i'm right there with you, sweetie, egging you on!

Vertigo is nothing to be sneezed at, it effects everything to try to do in a daily routine...I so hope you start to feel better real soon...it does take time. Do hope you are resting as much as possible.

Love Janice xxxx

Re: Where I'm at

Thanks Janice!  It really is nice to see the scales go down.  I really can't wait to fit back into my size 10 clothes again.

You are so right about vertigo.  I wish I could rest more - it's a bit hard with the kids.  As lovely as they are, they really don't understand why mummy is sick.  BF and my mum have been helping with dropping the kids to school and picking them up so that's been good.  And I've talked the kid's dad into taking them for 2 weeks from Sunday so hopefully that'll give me the chance to rest.

 Sweetie you need to rest, complete rest....so glad the children will be going to their dad's for awhile. Vertigo is a real  bugger and takes so long to recover from, i so feel for you...just doing normal daily chores can be so  difficult.

Please take care my friend!

Want new photo's when you reach your goal weight, hey?

Love Janice xxxx

Re: Where I'm at

Thanks Amanda - I've never before had much luck at losing weight this time of year, so I'm quite pleased with how I'm going!  Though I will confess to overeating the last couple of days.

Vertigo really is nasty cause it just affects everything you do.  It's not like a sprained ankle where you can just keep off it for a bit.

Oh dear!!!  How's the knee?  Being dizzy sucks so I hope that goes soon,how are you handling the antibiotics?  Hope you can get through the dose then we are not allowing you to do anything else to yourself.  Please take care we still need to know what you decided on for wedding colours!!!

Knees improving slowly.  Still sore though.  I'm back at the doctor tomorrow so we'll see what she says.

No antibiotics unfortunately cause its a virus - just some Stematil to ward off the dizziness. 

It's weird and a bit frustrating not to be able to do anything!
