Guest guest Posted December 11, 2006 Report Share Posted December 11, 2006 Hi Leah Sometimes we are too hard on ourselves and it takes someone outside to put things into some kind of perspective – you have lost 4kg in 4 weeks – that is brilliant, and ideal. You should only be loosing a kilo or so a week any more and it would be too much and dangerous. I guess in our heads we feel that we have had the op, now we want the success straight away and that is not always possible. Hard as it is we have to realise that this is going to be an ongoing journey and there are plenty of downs, but lots and lots more ups. Good on you for getting out and walking – who cares if it is at night. Its cooler then too – no hot sun to contend with so its ideal. I hope that situation you mentioned will sort itself to your satisfaction. Its hard when you make a rash or wrong decision – I know I do it a fair bit. I don't always get a good outcome, but hey life is like that. Keep smiling, you are well on your way to 'killerbabe' status! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 11, 2006 Report Share Posted December 11, 2006 I gotta tell someone....story goes... my hubby bought home some gorgeous frangipani stickers from work - he works in a place that cuts out the stickers and I have used most for personal use and gifts and I put some (about 30) on eBay...Yesterday I had a guy pick up some which he had won and it turns out it was the company who makes the stickers and now there is a huge problem and my hubby - who just got a promotion and payrise is right in the middle and all the big management and hubby and other company are meeting tomorrow. I am full of guilt, stupidity and sadness....pass the twisties. I have written an apology. It was a innocent silly thing, but it has affected other people and I feel like I was set up badly and that makes me feel SO ignorant and stupid There - not so bad Leah L. > > I hope that situation you mentioned will sort itself to your > satisfaction.

Guest guest Posted December 11, 2006 Report Share Posted December 11, 2006 Oh Crap! I am sure they will accept your apology; it was not that bad was it??? Plus you could say that you will donate the amount to a children's charity etc. Oh buggar, sounds like you were set up because he came to your house to collect them. Back away from the twisties!!

Guest guest Posted December 12, 2006 Report Share Posted December 12, 2006 Hi Leah, glad that your Dr visit went well, & that the stress-out wasn't really warranted. You have me a little worried tho that he didn't want to do another fill. I want to be regularly filled & restricted baby!!! You're doing SO well with your weight loss - good for you! and, as we discussed, by the time I get my op, we'll probably be around the same weight. It was great chatting to you, look forward to another chat & meeting up! I know it's different being on that side of things, but they are ONLY stickers, not computers or other important stuff. Geez, you'd think that dh's company employees would have better things to do than trawling eBay & other places trying to entrap people!! Everyone makes mistakes, this was a pretty minor & innocent one, & besides, it wasn't actually dh anyway. I'm sure this will all blow over soon. Take care ( & don't beat yourself up!)

Guest guest Posted December 12, 2006 Report Share Posted December 12, 2006 Hi Fee Thanks babe - I am feeling much better today - is going to the meeting at about 11.30 and I cannot do anything so I am trying to stay nice and know that it was a mistake etc....stupid if you ask me. It is like I am going through the 5 stages of grief and I am now at Denial!! What is wrong with selling off stickers which were on the floor or end runs or had slight cutting flaws - i hope they all get what they deserve for xmas!! Anyway, will face whatever comes my way. I was lying in bed last night thinking about Dr Budak - i should tell him that - maybe he would be interested to know! and...back on track Leah...I was thinking that I just have to trust him, I dont feel let down that I didnt have a fill and I am in a better place mentally today to see some changes etc, though I just saw a photo of myself at my youngest daughters presentation this morning and man, still a fatty!!! LOL - BTW - Emme got academic achievement award - such a nerd! One day it will get easier to see myself I hope! Fee, I will call you soon - maybe even today and have a chat - if not, because I am running behind on Uni work and essays which are due this Friday, good luck on friday with Dr Budak and we will definately meet early next week.

Guest guest Posted December 12, 2006 Report Share Posted December 12, 2006 Hi Leah, How i can relate to not wanting to look at your self - I cant bear the sight of myself and actually am disgusted if i do catch a glimpse and go to great lengths to avoid it! Congratulations to Emme! though I just saw a photo of myself at >my youngest daughters presentation this morning and man, still a >fatty!!!
