This weeks weigh in and progress with my hip

Weighed in my regular class and much to my annoyance was up 0.5lb despite a good week foodwise so made the decision to scrap the pescatarian lifestyle and going back to eating poultry and have the odd steak as a treat but one thing I will do is stick to the same principles of the Slimming World way as it works for me, I may be up 5.5lb in 2 weeks but I know doing Slimming World works for me and if it ain't broke don't fix and if I ever decide to change (2 hopes of that, no hope and bob hope) I will decide plus I like the comoraderie of being in a Slimming World class and I made plenty of friends through this.

Last Friday I was in Cappagh Hospital regarding my hip and the good news is, I'm now deemed an urgent case but it will be May 2015 when I go under the knife as Cappagh doesn't have enough money to carry out 4 surgeries a day and there is a long list of people waiting for joint replacement surgery, the photo shows the x-ray of my hip, on the right side you'll see a U shape, this is the cartilage and on the left side you'll see just a solid pic of bones rubbing together, this means the cartilage has completely gone which is why I struggle with pain, it will get worse before I get better and at the meantime I aim to carry on with my lifestyle and lose as much weight as possible with Slimming World, seek intensive pain management and also see a counsellor regarding on dealing not only pain but learn to cope socially again because recently i'm struggling to socialise because of the pain, some will say since I've gone teetotal I've not been the same but that ain't true.

Gutted my regular Bokwa class has been cancelled as I found out last night so need to find a different one that suits me but aim to be at the gym a couple of days this week

Have an A1 week everyone
