Today has been a landscape of archetypal November wintery weather. Blustery, constant, mind numbing rain has lashed our little country in a huge contrast to the fab weather we've had recently. The pic shows one such day around 4 weeks ago when Mr RB and I actually had a day off together (he works crazy shifts and rarely gets a weekend day off) and we took a trip with Hamish to Rhossilli, one of the most gorgeous places in Wales. It was a lovely, lovely day but we didn't venture down to the beach because of the huge steep trek down to it which I was scared I wouldn't be able to get back up ok. That's shocking for a 27 yr old! We had a nice walk across the (pretty much flat) cliffs though, and Hamish came off lead for the first time in public and did himself proud, bless him.
Food wise today has been poor. I rang the LLC to ask about the doctor's decision and how other people dealt with it when the GPs were not willing to sign the form but I had to leave an answer phone message and she hasn't got back to me as yet. Hmmmm.... this is quite a struggle to even get on this diet, let alone see it through. And as I'm notoriously a bit of a quitter it doesn't bode well! I did receive another pack in the post today though with another medical form - maybe I could go back and see one of the other doctors on Monday (a partner this time) and see what they have to say?
Popped round to see my mum tonight as we usually do on a Friday since my dad goes to his male voice choir rehearsal and she's on her own all night. My brother was there with his wife, Sharon, who is doing really well on Weight Watchers - I think she's lost over 2 and a half stone and is looking great! Her eating habits are so different to mine though as the weight has just crept on because of portion sizes or types of food choices rather than completely binging on huge amounts of food in secret to medicate a mental issue. I'm so pleased for her though! She is in the medical profession and I know for almost certain that she would frown heavily (no pun intended) on the LL diet for being so extreme.
It's the weekend tomorrow though - yippee!! Got lots of little jobs to do and one fine dog to be walked and then Mr RB actually has a Sunday off which I'm soooo looking forward to!
