This afternoon had involved not so fun body checking, loose skin wise. Ugh. Keep reminding myself that even with the loose skin it’s much better than it was

I miss the novelty stuff you used to get with Easter eggs, all the mugs stopped years ago, the fun kids ones, I miss them

Very yummy

Jesus buttering a hot cross bun:

I’m baking brownies! I used a box mix and added mini eggs to make it Easter themed

Got some uni work done. Only 1.5hrs but still I feel better for getting something done after a few false starts this week

My fall on Wednesday was a little worse than I thought, my right shoulder blade has been aching a lot. I twisted myself to take a photo of it and I’m bruised in a fun pattern

Roadworks have started again. Let’s hope it’s not another long night

ECG went fine, just a slightly raised pulse. My blood pressure was a touch low lying down, she tried 7 times on 2 different machines to get my blood pressure standing up but it didn’t work, eventually she checked it manually and got 81/50 then 87/51 I won’t hear back for a week or two

I’m feeling very weak and fragile today. Usually I’d be very pissed off at this, but I’m hoping it shows up in my tests when I go for the ecg and blood pressure this afternoon Either way I’m getting myself a treat on the way home

That was a shitty night. I eventually got to sleep again but I was interrupted a lot by the very loud roadworks I’m still having a higher pain level after yesterdays brief passing out I’m going to rest today until it’s time for my ecg, I can try uni work tomorrow

It’s 12.30am. I went to bed at 8.15, I’ve had about 2hrs of very broken sleep thanks to major roadworks literally right outside my front door I was so hoping to get uni work done in the morning but it’s going to be a long night

They are resurfacing the road. Right outside my flat. Flat is shaking. I managed 1hr sleep before the shaking and noise woke me up

I am so tired today. Slept badly the last couple of nights, and my body had a bad day today. I’m heading for an early night. Hopefully uni work tomorrow but definitely a Drs visit for an ecg and blood pressure. I shall endeavour to get chocolate hot cross buns too

I continue to be not so great at being upright when I get up. And my whole right side hates me despite pain meds

Was trying to sleep, knock on door, got up for door, fell on floor/very briefly passed out. Missed the delivery

Internet issues yesterday with uni work meant I got only a tiny bit done Now today I’m having a bad pain day Ugh

I don’t know how, but somehow after a lovely nd group, I’m feeling more alone than normal. Like I tried to do the human thing and interact and involve people but I feel more disconnected somehow

I really like the marmite cheddar bites

I have returned from ND group, it was a busy group, 14 of us in total, 10 people and us 3 manager types and the facilitator. We might need to separate into 2 groups next time, we’re still learning what works best in the space with the numbers

Might not have been able to get much uni work done today but I have updated my driving licence with a new photo as my current licence photo is of me literally double this weight

I tried to get uni work done but the internet on my laptop was being shitty and not loading anything, I did half an hour of prep work, deciding what the subjects of the paragraphs of the essay will be, so I did a tiny bit

Just had a call from the Drs, they want me in for another ecg and a blood pressure test, this week. So I have an appointment on Thursday I hope that they test blood pressure properly (standing snd lying down), but who knows. This must have been the advice from cardiology

Today I’m going to attempt some uni work and i have ND group late afternoon. Fingers crossed I can get uni work done as I’m under a time crunch deadline wise

After being half asleep all day I now can’t get to sleep Promethazine taken I’ve got work to do tomorrow

Shrinking season 2 reminded me of when after I had left my 1st husband, I went back with my not yet step dad and brother (who I don’t get on with) all the way to the old house to get the kids furniture and house furniture, all the stuff I had paid for and was still using off (and had to for years)

Eli Lilly have changed mounjaro pen so there’s no more sneaky 5th dose That’s going to bring up the cost for so many, including me

I had rhubarb crumble and custard for dinner. Convention can suck it

I showered. Everybody clap lol. I put on fresh pyjamas and I feel better about going out to ND group tomorrow late afternoon now I’m clean. My surgery wounds are looking incredibly good, I have so much gnarlier scars from abscesses on my abdomen

Got a quote back for arm skin surgery with a (known to be good) consultant at a hospital semi local to me. It’s a few thousand more expensive than I thought it would be. If I saved that amount then I’d have to go over the amount UC/ESA says I can save

I told my cleaner about getting a new duvet (mines v old and crappy), and she told me about 3 in 1 pop together duvets. Ordering ☑️

I rested all yesterday in the hope that today I could get some uni work done I am however only half awake (and that’s being generous) and my brain is definitely less then half awake Maybe tomorrow

I really hate having to wait for pain meds to kick in

I just broke a nail getting a pain killer out of its blister pack. Ugh.

I need more tattoos 3 and a bit months until my next one I have so many plans

2hr uni tutorial done. I think it was helpful, but I’ll find out when I sit down to work more on the essay. This essay is 15% of my overall grade, my next end of module coursework is 40% so it’ll be a very intense couple of months

Marmite cheese things are yummy

I have 3 deliveries due today. The delivery window is half in my uni tutorial. I’m going to be interrupted 🤦‍♀️

The really yummy Waitrose chocolate and fudge hot cross buns are 183calories. And surprisingly the apple and cinnamon ones are 189calories What a time to be alive lol

I got a semi ok chunk of uni work done, until my eyes were tired. Then I went and built my D&D character properly online and emailed it to the DM to print it for me

Dizzy spell lying flat in bed, after being flat in bed for nearly an hour Body: WTF?

I am back from D&D. I’m very glad I left the heating on, it’s very cold outside We battled a fiend way out of our comfort zone, it took almost an hour to kill him, there were 5 of us against him. Somehow it missed me every time, but sadly I missed him also 🤣🤦‍♀️

Woo! I got the £20 on points for the market research thing I did yesterday. All withdrawn and put in my bank ready to put towards my next mounjaro pen

There’s a surprising amount of great films on the new hbo thing. Thankfully it’s coming free automatically with now tv package

It’s weigh in day and I’m in a good mood. Things are moving in the right direction post surgery. I’m also finally back (and now slightly under), where I was when I switched to wegovy late last year I also have now lost 1.4lbs more than I currently weigh

Getting another product to test, this time it’s a drink with added fibre, looks pretty and the flavours sound good

Waited around for the phone appt for 1.5hrs to get a text as she’s asked for advice from cardiology Then I went and got my bin (bigger job than it sounds) And I had a shower! I have a blood test early tomorrow and D&D tomorrow evening

Just got a text, she’s asked for advice from cardiology and is awaiting their response, if I collapse I should goto a&e, which is a bugger as I’ve nearly done that twice today, but I didn’t, so…fine right?

It’s now 5pm. The appointment was at 4, definitely a phone one I’ve checked. I’m all nervous she’s tried and I’ve missed it somehow

I’m sitting around waiting for a phone call from the advanced practitioner, the appointment was at 4. I keep worrying my phone will accidentally send it to voicemail
