Trip to Melbourne

Hi Guys

Due to the death of one of my best friends Leane, I will not be weighing in at Weight Watchers this week or next. Instead the money is going to plane fares to take me to Melbourne for her funeral on Wednesday 18th July.

I will not stop watching my points during this time but I will not be able to weigh in.

It puts life in to perspective when you lose someone close. The little things that used to bother you dont matter as much, You want to make an effort to speak to those you love more often, you want to make your life as healthy as possible to survive a long life!

Leane was the kind of person who would tell you how it is, no sugar coating! She loved her friends and loved her family even more. If you were Leane's good friend you were also her family. Im glad she is finally at peace now after 10 long years of battle with cancer. She now gets to soar with the birds she so desperatly loves. May you Rest In Peace Leane.

Above is a photo which was taken at Leane's house straight after our wedding ceremony. Leane was meant to be my 3rd bridesmaid but due to her illness could not be there. So instead we went to visit her with the photographer. Im so glad we did this as she felt she was still part of it. Im going to get one of these pictures blown up and framed.

On other events, Astro seems to be getting worse. Last night he was throwing up ALOT, he was-feeling very ill. The vet has booked him in on Monday to have an x-ray and ultrasound to see his stomach. I feel there may be some sort of obstruction there!

I leave on Tuesday 17th so I pray there are no emergency surgeries that need to happen whilst im away. If so I may have to come back earlier. Ill have to see if Shaun can take time off.

My flight home is on Saturday 21st. Ill be home (airport) by 4pm, so with travel we should be back in Toowoomba by 6pm.

I will let you all know how my trip goes, it is purely to see off a great friend. I want to remember her and honor her.

Lots of Love

Karen

Oh well

Hey guys



Well this week wasnt so good. Last weekend we had lunch out on Friday, Dinner on Saturday and Lunch on Sunday. So there is no suprise that i put on weight by Monday! BUT I was working really hard all week and took off a little of what I had put on so Im happy with that, but i still put on 1.3kg.



It wouldnt budge all that much at the start of the week but I exercised every day, ate right and it seems to have moved it a little!
Besides It going to be TTOM soon so that could probably explain why its not moving all that much!



Astro has been sick this week. He has been throwing up each night for the past few weeks, so I took him to the vet and they tested him, they think it could be he has a fast metoblisim and needs to eat more often. Since giving him smaller amounts more often he's getting better, he still has nausea but isnt following through. Luckily cause otherwise they said it could be Addison's Diease which is a rare genetic defect in Small pure bred dogs (like ours) which is fatal if untreated. We would basicly have to give him Cortisone injections everyday to keep him Fine tuned!



So cross your fingers and your toes that his problem is the eating thing!!



Otherwise things are good. We went to Kirsty and Anthony place last night. Great fun! I was so bloody hypo it wasnt even funny! Sorry Guys :o)



They are coming around today to watch the footy and have BBQ lunch! Should be good!



Anyway, check in again next week for some good news (I hope)





Cheers Big Ears
