Have had my ups and downs this week. Have not managed to exercise as much as I should 
. I have had great intentions that have not materialised.
A big change happened for me this week..... My daughter has moved out (sort of) to go to university. I say sort of because she will be home weekends and term holidays which only makes it 25 weeks in the year or 118/365 days that she has to stay on campus (plus exams). Do you think I might miss her? lol
The day before my daughter moved, my eldest boy (25 years old) asked if he and his girlfriend could move in for 12 months to save for a house deposit. They have enough (just) ATM but want to be in a better position and cannot seem to save at all while they are renting. They are still thinking about it.
AAAAAARRRRRGGGGGGHHHHH!!!!
Just when we thought we were going to have a little peace around here it looks like being even more hectic. Me, Hubby, 16yo son (Z), 25 yo son (J) & GF (L), 19 yo daughter (V) on weekends and her boyfriend (B) 4 nights a week (he lives with us but spends a couple of nights at his mums). Currently with V at uni we have the occasional evening to ourselves if Z is at work and B goes to visit his mum. but if J&L move in we will have 7 people here on weekends. Yikes!
Anyway, in the process of moving her out we had to set up two computers. A new one for me and my old one for her to take. Thus I spent hours sorting out my 2,000+ photos in iPhoto, tagging, deleting and categorising. BTW... OMG I have lost some weight. Some of the (very rare) photos of me I found highlight that difference. Cleaned out documents folders, iTunes, hard drives, backups etc.... add to that the 3hr each way trip to move her and packing and unpacking her stuff. I spent a lot of time not exercising and sitting on my butt. This resulted in a nasty haemorrhoid which means I have not been in any mood to do any more exercise.
Still I managed a small loss this week.
Down to 85.7 kg
A loss of 0.8 kg
My weight loss graph looks like this...
You can see that since I have stopped the D my weight loss has slowed, a lot, but I am still losing. Now that my daughter is settled, I am thinking I should go back to my GP and see if I can get another script. As far as he is concerned, I have been off the D since October (I actually made it last till almost Christmas). A five month break should be enough for him, I could even stretch it out till six months. The endocrinologist recommended I go back on the D to help if I plateau and I would really like the boost right now for the last 15-20 kilos. At least I know I can still lose or keep the weight off without the D. Knowing me, I will probably put off going to the GP. The slow weight loss (or staying the same for weeks) is frustrating but if I look at the graph, I am still slowly heading towards my goal.
If you got this far.... Congratulations!
I hope everyone is having a great week
