On May 13th I was finally called in to have my operation. I am 5 weeks post op and feeling pretty good.</p> <p>Last week in my follow up appointment with my surgeon he mentioned I have a fatty liver (I already knew this from previous scans last year) and he suggested I need to lose at least 10kg, I want to lose 30kgs to get to my goal though.</p> <p>I've been thinking for a while how am I going to go about losing this weight, I am feeling quite angry with Tony Ferguson for this happening in the first place, they had no warnings or anything saying losing weight this fast can be dangerous. So I have been peeking over at the site recently and seems like a lot of the people who were on the program last year are still there or dropped off the wagon. I also suspect the admin are trying to cover up some misinformation, I noticed a few posts hidden so I am wondering what's up with that. I also read about he program affecting egg quality for those doing IVF,I'm not doing IVF but I am TTC so I was worried when I read that.</p> <p>So I've decided to use a different paln...tbc</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <a href="http://www.extrapounds.com/blog/clareybear/comments/334101/im-back">Comments(0)</a> 334101 Wednesday, December 5, 2007 23:09:03 Woohoo Welcome to the 80's http://www.extrapounds.com/blog/clareybear/comments/159865/woohoo-welcome-to-the-80s <p>Well my slump is over, I got down to 89kg(196lbs) and in the last few days I've dropped a few more and I weighed in at 87.5kg (192lbs) his morning WOOHOO. Only 10.5kg (23lbs) to go to get to 77kg(169lbs) that a healthy weight range and I might lose another 5kg&nbsp; to get to 72kg (158lbs)after that depending how I look at 77kg(169lbs).</p> <p>I'm in the homestretch and it feels sooo good.</p> <a href="http://www.extrapounds.com/blog/clareybear/comments/159865/woohoo-welcome-to-the-80s">Comments(0)</a> 159865 Tuesday, December 5, 2006 00:05:05 Grr http://www.extrapounds.com/blog/clareybear/comments/155672/grr <p>Well on Thursday night I ended&nbsp; up in the ER once again with a gallstones attack, this is getting to be rather frustrating and painful.</p> <p>The nurse told me I could be waiting up to 2 years to get it removed WTF??? I have my surgeon's appt on Friday so I'm going to have to lay it out how much this is effecting my life.</p> <p>I'm in pain everyday from moving, we want to be able to start a family asap not in 2 years, I wonder if they move you up the waiting list if you are pregnant and getting attacks?? The thought &nbsp;wandered through my mind once or twice.</p> <p>Please keep me in your thoughts next Friday and hope he thinks I need it out ASAP.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <a href="http://www.extrapounds.com/blog/clareybear/comments/155672/grr">Comments(0)</a> 155672 Sunday, December 3, 2006 22:08:02 Week 16- Week 1back on after 2 week break http://www.extrapounds.com/blog/clareybear/comments/127654/week-16-week-1back-on-after-2-week-break <p>Well I've been back on Tony Ferguson for a week now but it's been a pretty bad week. On Tuesday I woke up with some chest pains (Gall Bladder pain) it was not too bad so I went to work, well Wed nesday morning about 1am I woke up in a lot of pain and having another attack so&nbsp; I got up and took my Buscopan and Panediene Forte and jumped in the shower, after the drugs kicked in I went back to bed and finally got to sleep, I woke up a few hours later and thought the drugs were wearing off so I took some more. When i woke up on wed morning for the day I felt dizzy and wanting to throw up, so i spent most of the day in bed, I did throw up my morning shake so i decided to go off the diet and just eat healthy again. Thursday I didn't feel too bad, we went shopping as James has no clothes that fit, I started having chest pains whilst we were shopping and they got worst that night, so bad I had to take more drugs. Friday I woke up feeling okay except I was very sore either bruising or slight chest pain I don't know. I spent the day in bed again. So this was suppose to be my first week on again but I had to eat normal as I was so sick but I still lost 2kg WOOHOO. So I'm weighing in at 92kg.</p> <p>Well I'm hoping to have a better week this week. i have a doctor's appt on Tuesday&nbsp; and hopefully he can push my surgery forward as I am having bad attacks frequently.</p> <a href="http://www.extrapounds.com/blog/clareybear/comments/127654/week-16-week-1back-on-after-2-week-break">Comments(0)</a> 127654 Saturday, December 2, 2006 23:01:03 2nd day back on TF http://www.extrapounds.com/blog/clareybear/comments/123064/2nd-day-back-on-tf <p>Well I decided to wait until I had 2 days off work before going back on TF with my doctor's permission as I was worried about getting sick but I have to admit other then feeling a bit hungry in the afternoon I'm doing great.</p> <p>According to my records I weighed 94.5kg on Wed 14th Feb and 93.5kg when I was discharged from the hospital on Thurs 15th Feb. For the last two weeks my weight has been hovering around 94kg which is great. I have been eating pretty good. </p> <p>I have been back on TF for 2 days and weighed in this morning at 93.5kg YAY!!! Hopefully I can drop some more this week.</p> <p>I've been trying very hard to drink my 2 litres of water every day, Day 1 I only had about 1.4 litres but the last 2 days I have had 2 litres.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <a href="http://www.extrapounds.com/blog/clareybear/comments/123064/2nd-day-back-on-tf">Comments(2)</a> 123064 Sunday, December 3, 2006 00:04:01 Details http://www.extrapounds.com/blog/clareybear/comments/123062/details <p>Clare's Start Weight 107kg BMI 34<br />Waist 107cm <br />Height 177cm<br /><br /><br />Clare&rsquo;s Goals<br />1.~Goal 99kg (BMI 32) 1/1/07 </p> <p>2.~Goal 97kg (BMI 31) 21/1/07<br />3.~Goal 92kg (BMI 29)&nbsp; &nbsp;/3/07</p> <p>4.~Goal 87kg (BMI 28) <br />5.~Goal 82kg (BMI 26)</p> <p>6.~Goal 77kg (BMI 25) </p> <p>7.~Goal 72kg (BMI )<br /><br />Clare's Weigh In <br />Starting Weight 107kg<br /><br />W1 25/11/06 -105kg</p> <p>W2 2/12/06- 105kg</p> <p>W3 9/12/06 -103kg </p> <p>W4 16/12/06- 102kg<br />W5 23/12/06- 100.5kg</p> <p>W6 30/12/06-100kg </p> <p>W7 6/1/07- 98kg </p> <p>W8 13/1/07-98kg<br />W9 20/1/07-97.5kg </p> <p>W10 27/01/07-95.5kg</p> <p>W11 3/2/007- 96kg </p> <p>W12 10/2/07 94.5kg </p> <p>W13 17/2/07- 94.5kg</p> <p>W14 24/2/07- 94.5kg OFF TF</p> <p>W15 3/3/07 94kg </p> <p>W16 10/3/07 92kg<br /><br /><br />James Start Weight 120kg BMI 32<br />Waist<br />Height 194cm<br /><br />James Goals<br />1.~Goal 115kg (BMI 31) 25/11/06 </p> <p>2.~Goal 110kg (BMI 29) 30/12/06<br />3.~Goal 105kg (BMI 28) 27/1/07 </p> <p>4.~Goal 100kg (BMI 27)&nbsp;&nbsp; 11/3/07<br />5.~Goal 95kg (BMI 25)</p> <p>6.~Goal 90kg (BMI 24)<br />7.~Goal 85kg (BMI 23)<br /><br />James Weigh In<br />Starting weight 120kg<br /><br />W1 25/11/06- 115kg </p> <p>W2 2/12/06-113kg </p> <p>W3 9/12/06- 112kg</p> <p>W4 16/12/06- 112.5kg<br />W5 23/12/06- 110.5kg</p> <p>W6 30/12/06- 109.5kg </p> <p>W7 6/1/07- 108kg </p> <p>W8 13/1/07- 107kg<br />W9 20/1/07-106kg</p> <p>W10 27/1/07- 104.5k </p> <p>W11 3/2/007- 103.5kg </p> <p>W12 10/2/07 103kg </p> <p>W13 17/2/07-102kg </p> <p>W14 24/2/07- 101.5kg </p> <p>W15 3/3/07&nbsp; 101.5kg</p> <p>W16 10/3/07 100.5kg</p> <a href="http://www.extrapounds.com/blog/clareybear/comments/123062/details">Comments(0)</a> 123062 Sunday, December 3, 2006 00:04:01 Update http://www.extrapounds.com/blog/clareybear/comments/117536/update <p>WellI had been meaning to update this blog more but I'm a slacker lol.</p> <p>Well I'll start with he valentine's day challenge, I didn't make my goal in time but I did&nbsp; make it a few days later so not too bad. Unfortantly I can't fit in the outfit but I'm sure I will soon.</p> <p>The bad news is I got rushed to the ER last thursday at 1am and I was diagnosed with gallstones. Doc reccomended I stop the diet until I get my gallbladder&nbsp; out so I have spent the last week on a low fat diet instead. I've been pretty good sticking to the diet, I was worried I have been eating too much bread but my weight seems to be staying around 94 (It did dip down to 93.5 when I was released from hospital) so I guess I should be happy I can maintain my weight. I have a doctor's appt on tuesday and am going to see if I can go back on TF hopefully the 2 shake a day plan if not the one shake a day plan.</p> <p>So that is the latest... Oh I should add that my hubby has gone from Oompa Loompa to sexy hunk seriously he looks so amazing.</p> <p>That's all for now but I'll be updating asap</p> <p>wish me luck for the doc appt</p> <a href="http://www.extrapounds.com/blog/clareybear/comments/117536/update">Comments(0)</a> 117536 Friday, December 1, 2006 22:02:03 New Challenge over at the TF forum http://www.extrapounds.com/blog/clareybear/comments/94039/new-challenge-over-at-the-tf-forum <p>We are having a Valentine's day challenge</p> <p>I need to post an outfit I want to wear by Valentine's Day.</p> <p>I have chosen a suit set (Jacket, pants and shirt) that are size 18.</p> <p>They are Target brand, they have been sitting in my closet since approx 1999 with the tags attached lol</p> <p>My boobies are currently bulging a bit and my tummy too. the pants I can just pull up over my stomach but are very tight and I can't zip them up.
