Well, that all petered out. I started forgetting to take my pills, ended up really down and fed up and finally ended up putting on loads of extra weight, which wasn’t quite the idea!
However, I had to go and register with a new GP today, and when the nurse weighed me, I looked at the scales and got rather upset.
I have hypothyroidism (which roughly translates to having no metabolism), which is fine and controllable – as long as I take my pills. Which I don’t. I seem to manage to make 3 month’s worth of pills last 6 months, which is NOT good.
I asked the nurse whether this would have an effect on my weight, and she said yes, i wouldn’t be likely to lose weight unless I took my pills. unfortunately, taking too many of my pills doesn’t make me lose more weight than I need, LOL – I’d already thought of that one!
so – I have now actually got OUR act together, and signed both TN and myself up to the local gym. I have my induction on Sunday. Scary stuff – as I’ve said before, I am NOT a gym bunny, so a huge part of me is dreading it, another part of me is thinking “You’re wasting your money!” and another part of me (the most vociferous part) is saying”Well, it’s a lot of dosh, and you’ve signed BOTH of you up, so you’ll just have to make sure that you both go!”
I’m feeling pretty determined, so we’ll see!
