still Crook!

Well Im still Crook folks. I had to go back to the Dr's on Thursday since i havent been getting any better! They took some blood and a swob from the back of my throat (with sore tonsils that was NOT pretty or nice).

They are testing me for Glandular Fever. Hopfully im clear! Im still feeling tired (had a 2 hour nap today, and those that know me know i dont nap during the day) my throat is a little sore still, my tounge is still swollen at the back, my ears are still a tinsy sore, my body feels like i was hit by a car a few weeks ago. Still a little sore and tender. BUT im getting better and that's the main thing! AND i have my voice back. I couldn't find it for a few days but its graced us with its presence once again!!

After all this, and being on meds all week Ive lost 1kg! So im quite happy with that!!!! Im 300 grams away from 5kg loss. it's taken longer than anticipated (due to all the crap!) but its happened and that's the main thing. Out of the 10 weeks ive been re-doing this I've only gained twice! that's not bad 8 out of 10 loss!!!

i beat my goal this week. I only wanted to lose 500 grams so im very thrilled and hope this week i can lose close to 2kg! We shall see!

With summer not too far away ive got a bit of work to do, so i can wear some nice clothes. But if i stick to it i should be fine!

It was Jazzy's 2nd birthday on Wednesday! I can't believe she is 2 already!! Which means Shaun and my wedding anniversary is coming up soon for the big 2!!! How time flies!
Astro is good. He hasnt chucked in a while so that's good.

Shaun is good... Shaun is Shaun. What more do I say? .............................. ;o)

Anywho talk later. Going to have some dinner!

Love, Peace and Chicken Grease

first weigh in, for 2 weeks.

Hey All,

Well my first weigh in showed ive lost 500grams. Which im quite happy with considering most people who dont weigh in for 2 weeks and go home normally put weight on! Im happy, its a loss not a gain so that's GOOD!

I sort of started a new job on Wednesday. By sort of i mean its not set in stone! Its with a child care centre up here. I had the interview on Tuesday and they asked if i could start a trial on Wed, which i did. They want me to do another couple of days to see if i like it. Which I DONT! but Ill stay there until i find somthing else. Its casual so its not every day! I dont think i could do it full time. Im the qualified Assistant and unfortunatly for me the Assistant gets all the crap jobs. Most centre's share responsiblity with cleaning and setting up activites and meals. BUT NO not here, Im in charge of all it. It may not sound like much but it means this, i rock up to work the kids are playing, i then have to pick up toys, clean tables. We go outside for 30 mins, come inside, i have to set the toys up. 40 mins later or so, i have to AGAIN clean up the toys and wash the tables, i then have to set the tables for lunch. 30 mins later i have to put the beds down, clean up after lunch (with 2 y/o's it is a MESS) then sweep, mop, clean the toilets. Go to lunch, come back, get the kids up, put beds away, set up for afternoon tea, clean up afternoon tea, kids go outside, come back in, AGAIN toys out, toys back. Then the kids go to another room, and i have to pick up all the tables and stack them up, stack up the chairs, roll up the rugs, move boxes of toys, sweep. ENOUGH..... its so hard on your back. Even if you were smaller than me it cant be goood for you back!

Plus i really dont want to work with that age group again. My headaches wont be able to take it! People dont understand, I worked with this age group, and it was fine UNTIL i worked with primary school kids, you cant go back to the childcare age once you've worked with primary aged... The director said she's had alot of people leave because of this reason. You get used to being able to talk to the kids with them understanding, not doing nappies anymore... So im going to keep looking and since its casual ill be able to still go to interviews. So keep your fingers crossed for me!

Astro is better. He has to be fed every 4 hours. He isnt being sick anymore. SO that is good!

Well i have Tonsillitis now too. SO my throat is very sore.

anyways til next week. Love peace and chicken grease
