day 75

19th nov 07
well blog three quarters of the way through foundation, never thought i would make this in a million years!Not a fabulous day today really. Woke up and had my lie in after working yesterday which was nice but I still was feeling tender in my tummy and a bit sick. Went into work for a few hours and felt awful, really sick and pains in my back and I could feel a lump in my tum so I got an appt at the GP for 5pm. Really lucky cos although it was an emergency appt I saw my doc who supported me in LL so didn't have to go through the whole saga. Was really worried in the waiting room as others were being called in to diff doctors cos I thought 'I know he/she will tell me to stop/have a break/tell me off'etc etc....adapted child coming through loud and clear!! I had my record book and foodpacks with me to explain but didn't need them! It was the first time Dr S had seen me since I started LL and although he didn't make a fuss he was impressed at what I had lost. Had a look at me and decided thatI may have a hernia so is sending me for blood tests and an ultra sound to see what is going on. Reckons that I may have had it for some time and because I have lost so much weight it has become more obvious rather than hiding in my jelly belly!! He also said that sometimes when you lose a lot of weight you can get pockets of fat that hang around in your gut...lovely thought!!So feel better knowing what it might be as I had run through every possibility in my head and over dramatised it all as ever! B) C had a parents review for two of her subjects and got positive feedback which was nice to hear and Z is becoming the proud owner of a corn snake tomorrow which doesn't fill me with delight as I know who will end up feeding it!! (and they don't eat vegetarian!!)..actually have put my foot down on that one and I know she will be a responsible snake owner!!Managed to stick to the packs today and forced the water down as it did actually stop me feeling worse, seem to have gone back on chocolate at night which is good as I need to cut down the coffee to one a dayI think.Well going to take my sore tum to bed with a HWB I think and see what tomorrow brings!
