Not gonna give up!!!

Well yesterday I could have easily, and I mean very easily given up. I had a headache, toothache and earache all on my right side. My right knee was and still is playing up as well. I felt miserable and all I wanted was comfort food.

I pictured myself sitting infront of the telly, munching on KFC, cheesecake, anything really, as long as I didnt have to cook it. I felt so sorry for myself. Even poor Sebastian didnt get as many cuddles from me yesterday, and no blowing raspberries on his little tum either. It just hurt way to much to even think about it.

Yesterday was also the first full day of not having my DSDs here. And Elliott wanted special cuddles even more. Did he not see I was in pain??? After he finally realised (late last night when he read my post in the WW forum) I was in pain and what I felt like doing, he decided to leave me alone and go to bed.

I was so so close to telling him to go and buy some KFC etc, but I didnt. For that I am proud of myself and very thankful. I went to our freezer and pulled out a couple of frozen meals I had made, teamed it up with some beans and corn and there was our dinner. Elliott had the Chicken Hotpot and I had the Beef. Hmmm that reminds me, I need to make some more. I could only find 6 meals left. I make them up for Elliott to take to work. He is trying so hard to follow the points with me and having him full at work stops him buying point laden treats from the pie van that visits.

With my tooth being sore I have been eating soft food. I have found if I chew on my meal more, I feel fuller. I incorporate corn into nearly every main meal due to this. Chewing on a cob of corn is so yummy and it makes me feel fuller. I often have one for lunch as well.

I have been reading heaps of blogs about peoples adventures while slimming. I am amazed at how everyone wants to run. I have never really thought about running myself. But, having said that, I have never been a size to actually run. I might need to reassess my fitness when I lose more weight. I used to enjoy walking, and I loved Body Combat, but for now I am limited with my exercise. I will sit on my fit ball and bounce around.

I am feeling a bit lost at the moment, here it is Monday morning and I had planned on cleaning the house top to bottom and my tooth is still so sore I couldnt be bothered. I need to wash some towels though. My DSDs used about 4 a day and they were lost in their rooms until I found them last night. When they are here for some reason Ell leaves his towel on the floor too. Hmmm will have to keep an eye on that and make sure it doesnt continue. He is usually really really good with that type of thing.

As you will have noticed, my blog is going all skew wiff. My profile doesnt start until the end of my first post. Not sure what the go is with that. I have been trying to work it out but cant for the life of me. So if you are reading this and know what I need to do please please let me know.
I have so many ideas I want to try with this blog but sadly I dont have the know how. Anyone know how to do a table?

My dentist appointment is today, but I am unsure if I should go. I was in the middle of root canal treatment until we moved town. When I got here I rang up to get an appointment and the waiting list was almost 2 months long YIKES!! So I have been waiting a long time, and I am hoping that I dont need the tooth pulled now. Thats why I chose to have the treatment done. I dont want another tooth to leave my mouth. Who will help me chew on those lovely rare steaks???

I am actually wondering if I have my top right wisdom tooth. There is pain in the area as well. My teeth are going all out of whack as well, not that you would notice to look at me. But when I bite down my teeth no longer match up. So I am going to ask if braces are necessary as I want lovely straight teeth for when I am sexy and skinny.

I am a bit annoyed at Ell this morning :( He woke me up early when he was leaving to go to work. He wanted a special cuddle. MEN!! And I woke up to him kissing me and nudging my right side of my face OUCH!!!! I was not happy. So he left for work and Seb woke up so I have been up for ages and still nothing to eat. I just couldnt be bothered with the pain in my mouth.

Oh dont I sound like a bear with a sore tooth lol. Well I am going to get my butt into gear and do some washing and try not to feel sorry for myself.

Take care and stay focused.
