Come, to Homercles

Today is my 3 month check-up with the spinal surgeon, and I really hope he has something to say about the knots in my shoulders and the pain in my sternum. If he acts like it is no big deal I think I may get upset. I am bringing mr. ralph along with me again because I need him there.

I think I need some sort of massage or manipulation to help with the shoulder pain, and I don't think it should come out of my pocket. I also think I need some reassurance that what I'm feeling is normal, and nothing to worry about.

This guy spends approximately 15 minutes, maybe less, with me every 3 months and I'm left out in the cold when it comes to the everyday pain that is my life.

Thanks to all of you that said you liked the new look. I'm not completely sold on it yet to be honest. Today I spent a considerable amount of time learning some new css styles so that I could change the link colors so that the content part is different to the side bar. It worked, but I don't like the way it looks still.

The time has already come when there are hot cross buns in the stores and we love them. We bought some and although the package we got was already going stale, I still love them. I have to be careful and buy the mini ones and read the label because one bun could range up to 5 to 6 points if I'm not careful. Small ones are 2 points, so a doable snack if I don't eat half the package.

oops! me bad! Try www.slimmingforlife.com.au I think i may have left the au off last time! I hope that you get some sort of relief from the dr this time. That sucks that you have pain all the time. Does it stop you from exercising?

Oh I would most probably cause him pain by kicking his ankle. Then we could exchange experiences ;)

And I love the new look too. I only did not mention it earlier because I am jealous of all fancy, nice looking blogs, since I know nothing of how to make mine look cute too ;p

doctors are idiots. that's why i decided not to be one. i'm sorry you are in pain and i hope you are given the support you need. demand it if you must.

i'm afraid you and i must part ways, however , on the issue of hot cross buns. i think they are vile and would not eat one if it were the last morsel of food on earth. i'd eat my own foot first. i'd eat your own foot first. and i'm a vegetarian so you KNOW i don't like hot cross buns! ;)

Starting over

Hmm. Starting over is never easy. I'm on a new journey this time. I want to do this for different reasons. I want to do it for me. This week has been an okay one food wise, but I haven't been walking. I have had to suffer rain, but we needed it so it is hard to be mad about it. I know I may have lost a tiny bit of weight, but probably not much. Will weigh myself tomorrow. I had a few too many drinks still. BUT I swear I am trying! It is hard right now. I want to go to the doctor and request some weight-loss drugs. I don't think my doctor will give me them, and I know it is a weak way out, but I want the help. So don't judge me! Thanks so much for the support lately. Even the few of you who still check to see if I am around, your words mean a lot to me.

Do you want what you can't have?

On the way home from work I saw a girl with the figure I want, but will never have. She was young; I think probably around 16 or 17. She was tall with lean legs and she was wearing a pair of trendy short shorts with a t-shirt. She also had amazingly perfect large breasts. I admittedly stared for a moment at her because she didn't have one single blemish. She is so beautiful. I couldn't stop myself from thinking about how I will never be that thin, I will probably never wear short shorts, and I definitely will never have those boobs. I wish I didn't look longingly at the things other people have and envy them, but I do. But I don't think I am the only one.

Tweaking

So I've done some tweaking to the code. I now think it looks better in Firefox than IE because IE is not recognising the best font. It is too late right now for me to concern myself with this. At least most of us can actually read it. Also I have to create a new weight chart that is compatible with this design. Thanks a lot for the input. Firefox users, is it better now?
