Spins4me Posted October 5, 2012 Report Share Posted October 5, 2012 ive put a stone on too, need to get it back off, so suggestions for the two of us would be useful please lol Spins waddles out of the lurking cupboard to plead for the best weight loss method suggestions. I've had a hurty since January, it was mended in June but recovery is long and slow - hence many months of lurking. If someone pushed me on a slope I'd roll right down.

merledogs Posted October 6, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 6, 2012 Moaning Just the two dogs in bed last night so slept better. Griff - I'm pleased that the tablets are having some effect Re the weight loss, I don't have any poorlies but I need a kick up the bottom to start back on my diet cos I've put a load of weight back on that I lost last year. Maybe we need a fred so we can all keep each other going. I don't want to leave it until New Year either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
suzeanna Posted October 6, 2012 Report Share Posted October 6, 2012 Another one here needing to lose some weight..we went out for a meal last night and the first two items I thought I'd wear didn't do up round the waist! Well, one did,but when I tried to sit down it nearly crippled me! Trouble is I can't afford Weight Watchers or Slimming World, can't do a lot of exercise because of various aches and pains...I'll just have to stop eating, I think. Spins, I hadn't realised you had a hurty, hope things are improving now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yantan Posted October 6, 2012 Report Share Posted October 6, 2012 LOL @ Jazz (I have no working smilies this morning - except maybe for this one?? Archie has been up since the crack of dawn making a batch of cheese n'garlic biskwits and another batch of peanut butter and banana biskies. I supervise and it's worn me out and made my joints ache but he'd promised his girlfriend, Sadie, he would make some today for her so I had to just grit my teeth and help him. I may be fit for nothing for the rest of the day Archie on the other hand is raring to go! He's got a 2 hour walk booked for this afternoon so that should help tire him out. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jacobean Posted October 6, 2012 Report Share Posted October 6, 2012 Morning. Hope you're fully recovered soon Barbara Marion hope it eases off quickly. Archie and his bright ideas. Sure his lady friend is going to appreciate them Another one who needs to lose some weight, but can't go on a diet, as it's all going on my bottom half while my top half is skinny. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
merledogs Posted October 6, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 6, 2012 Talking of fit for nothing, I'm knackered. Once I'd walked the boys, I went to B&Q and bought some paving slabs and some more temporary fencing, both of which are now in situ. The path is now just about finished, but I'd miscalculated so there is a gap between where the path ends and the top patio starts I've shoved a couple of stepping stones there for the time being but will need to get a slab cut to size or else find summat else to fill it. The lawn is now fenced off, but because we have the noo path, the dogs can now go up that onto the top patio as I've run the fencing alongside it. I'm jiggered now, just having some OJ and a chill pill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
merledogs Posted October 6, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 6, 2012 Just had a knock at the door. Normally I don't answer the door unless I know who it is, but I lent my next door neighbour my autumn lawn feed so thought it might be him returning it. Pleasantly surprised by a florist man who delivered these ... ... from the people I've just been working with. I've only been there three and a half weeks - how lovely is that?! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spins4me Posted October 6, 2012 Report Share Posted October 6, 2012 Thank you for the suggestions for losing some of the blubber! Gruesome description of injury: I tore the rotator cuff in my right shoulder in January using a chukkit stick to throw a ball for the dogs. It was sore but bearable. A couple of weeks later the dogs, bless them, pulled me over and I landed on the same shoulder - and that hurt like hell. Went to A&E and was told it was bruising. Spent many weeks in loads of pain, no sleep etc. I eventually saw my GP, had an ultrasound - two torn tendons. It was repaired in June. One tendon was a full thickess tear, the other, which attached my bicep to wherever a bicep attaches, had been torn right off. It was reattached lower down my arm. Recovery is 6 months plus. I have to say it's amazing what I've learned to do with my left hand. Ieven bought one of those bras that pull on over your head but it was no match for my boobs which are heading very far south these days.!! Also getting clothes over my head was nigh on impossible. It takes a long time to recover strength and a full range of movement - I'm working on it now with a v good pysio who I'm sure is a complete sadist but won't admit it. I have a photo but struggling to remember how to attach it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
