Can ya blame me? it's TTOM

SmileyCentral.com



PMT hit with a vengeance this morning with 3 teary-eyed episodes already!! I hate hormones!!

I felt it coming on yesterday when I just couldn't get enough to eat. I ate a ft long subway and was still hungry!!! Normally a 6inch one does me fine. I always recognise when TTOM is on it's way, firstly by the continual unsatisfied hunger and then never ending tears for pathetic reasons. But you'd think after 12yrs of marriage the men would work it out tho huh? Got home last night after ambulance sooo hungry I could have bitten the balls off a horse! Ewww, no maybe not quite :)

I walked into the house and saw left over dinner. Even tho I'd told Bill I'd get my own dinner and to go ahead and eat without me, the sight of stir fried mince was too much to resist. So I started digging my fingers into the food. "What the hell are you doing? Don't eat my dinner" came Bill's rebuke ... well that just set me off!! I was a blubbering mess. Like a volcano that had been bubbling all day and finally blew it's top. Revenge ... I had to EAT something NOW!!! So I chose a can of mushrooms. It was quite a sight ... stuffing these mushrooms into my mouth 2 at a time. By the time the can was finished I'd managed to calm down a little and cooked myself a proper meal.

This morning I wasn't much better, crying at silly things. So at 8.30am I decided to go back to bed and hopefully wake up a little happier and it seemed to work.

10.30am I had my appointment with the specialist to see if/what they were going to do about my ankle and I'm pleased to say he has agreed to operate again to take the pin out. He's putting me through privately so will only be waiting 2-3mths. The only little bugger is that he wants to have a good look at the tendons and joint while he's there to check there isn't another reason for the ankle locking up. So that means a bigger scar (the current one is about 10cm long) but I don't care about that.

And I can't remember who was asking about how to change the line spacing ... I'm not an expert in HTML coding but have self taught myself through doing tutorials and trial and error.
I worked out that if you put the following code ...

{ font-size: 10pt; line-height: 5 };

in your template after the "BODY { blah, blah ... " keeping it within the brackets, that should work. Just play around with where you put it in your HTML coding. But beware!! Make sure you copy and paste your template onto a word document and save it BEFORE you start playing around with it, that way you can always go back to your old one if you stuff it up.

Onto my evaluation for last week ...

Week ending 2 May, 2007

+/- this week: -2.4kg
total points used: 177/182
bonus exercise points earnt: 6.5pts
total steps for the week (exercise + work): 23,500
number of days exercise: 2
tracked: 7/7 days
water consumed: 12 litres/14 litres
sugar points: 21pts

Where did I go wrong? ...

  • over all points were closer to where they should be... 99% there on that one
  • my exercise was down a little this week but not too worried about that as last week I did it a little hard
  • water ... almost there, just another two litres to get it perfect
  • sugar points ... still on the high side but lower than last week and not a major
Things to work on for this week ...
  • don't have anything major to improve ... just need to keep up the mojo and that may be trickier this week being TTOM. Time to get down and focus!!!

OMG we could be twins because I felt like that a week ago and mine is due today or tomorrow DRAT!!!!

I just wanted to eat anything in the cupboard and nothing or no one was going to stop me. The problem was I didn't have anything that I could nibble on that wasn't bad for me.

It is good about your ankle my friend... I bet you are happy.

Love ya

You sound pleased with the specialists decision on your ankle so I am very pleased for you...hope he finds the cause for the locking.
Your evaluation sounds like your on fire, you've had an excellent week and thoroughly deserved your great loss. Heres to another great week.

Way to go Lyn, you are going Great guns!! What a massive loss! Lucky it was mushrooms and not cheesecake or something! I have been known to eat an entire packet of chocolate royals (the ones with jam on the biscuit) in one sitting when I am upset! I put on 1-2kgs every period, it's only a week, and it will be all over!

Sounds like yesterday was a bit hellish. You got through it though - could have been a disaster! Men - i don't think they understand hormones at all!!

Love your weekly evaluations - must start doing that again. Good feeling seeing your achievements, and sometimes hiccups in black and white.

Good luck with the ankle - I feel lucky (now) that mine healed ok and didn't need surgery.
