See the wagon....

....yeah, i'm off it.

WHY DO I DO THIS TO MYSELF?

It's like once I realised I was doing well, no not well, GREAT, my head tells me to relax now, to have a munch on those corn chips...it's ok!

But its not ok. *sigh*

It all started when I had the most horrendous pain of my life on Wednesday. As in, pain that made my jaw swell, my whole face throw and my eyes well up with tears all day.

I left work early to go to the dentist and found out that my wisdom teeth need taking out, and has to be done in the hospital because of how severely impacted they are.

Oh, and that will be $5000.00 (sorry, whinge over I promise!)

That night I was still in pain, but more so in such a negative mood that there was no way I could muster up the courage needed for bootcamp.

And so I flaked.

BUT IT GETS WORSE. (my, aren't I caps happy today?)

I flaked again on Friday. Once again, the painkillers had still not kicked in properly and I called Ms A and piked.

I know it was justified, but at the same time I still feel crap about it.

In addition (why do I feel like im writing an essay of excuses here) I don't think I will be losing this week, which is sucky after my awesome success last week.

There will be an update after bootcamp tonight (if I don't pass away from exertion!).

As crappy as this week has been, I don't want to be a negative nelly so here are some fabulous things in my life at the moment....

♥ Mum has invited N and I over for a roast dinner tonight. (Low fat of course) I love going to my Mum and Dad's and chatting about nothing over diet cordial and sakata crackers.

♥I went to City Chic and purchased the hottest dress, I feel like a 50's pin up girl in it! Will post photos next week, as its for my work Christmas do!

♥My mum told me where to buy my pug Pokey a Santa outfit for cute Christmas morning photos!

♥I had quite a violent encounter on Saturday night, but I managed to be the bigger person (quite literally and figuratively)and not let it get to me. (More on that later!)

Stay posted!

Give yourself a break young lady, you're having your wisdom teeth pulled!
I know how much it hurts to have teeth pain so of course you couldn't go to bootcamp!
You're still doing great so remember to just hop on back on the saddle and get going again!
We need pics of the Xmas dress!!
PS thanks for your comments <3

o poppet - you sound like me a couple of weeks ago!! Wisdom tooth pain is horrendous. Frozen bags of peas on your face work wonders, just wrap them in a towel first!

As for falling off the waggon, youl get back on it in a couple of days, I can see it waiting for you at the top of that hill over there!!

chin up! xx Gill xx

oh no, having painful wisdom teeth
is certainly no picnic so i think you can rest safely in the knowledge that it was in your health's best interest to not go to bootcamp this week.

At times we have to dig deep and do things we don't really feel like doing, but we also need to know when its simply not realistic for us to push ourselves if our health will actually be what suffers.

The great think about that wagon is that its right there and you can get straight back on again. Hope you post a pic of the dress.

PS: and thanx for stopping by my blog, i have just hit your starting weight and can't wait to hit those double digits. (exciting)

You are doing fantastic! I've just read all your entries, and I am sure I would be the one to make all others feel great in the same circumstances. After all, I have an extra wack of weight. Currently I think I'm about 158 kgs (350 pounds). You are definitely motivating though, and I enjoy how real you are in your writing. One question came to mind though. What techniques did Italian Stallion share with you with that breathing? I have huge issue with breathing when exerting myself, and could definitely use any pointers out there.

This is my first visit to your blog. Reading about boot camp I thought I was reading something from the Biggest Loser show (do you have that there?). Anyway, hang in there we all go through weeks like this. Wisdom teeth pulled is no fun task, hope you're doing ok.

I am in the same (painful) boat as you with the wisdom teeth and there is no way known I would be doing boot camp right now.

I can;t wait to see pics of you in your new dress, it sound gorgeous! :-)

Take care.

Thanks for visiting my blog and for the words of encouragement :o)

(I had a little old black pug that had an elf hat with pointy ears that he wore every Christmas - so sweet)

Hi CBB! Thank you for your lovely comments on my blog :)

You poor thing... teeth pain is crap. It's no wonder you haven't felt like exercising! Be kind to yourself chicky. I hope you're feeling better soon.

I have real issues with falling off the wagon once I start feeling smug and successful, too. I don't know what the answer is!

City Chic is the best for beautiful dresses! I also bought one from there for my office Christmas party. I wonder if it's the same one as yours? Mine's a little bit '50s, too!

Take care of yourself :)

Tully said...

Hey girl, missing you! I hope you have a great xmas. 2009 is an opportunity for a fresh start! :-)

Hey Cinderella!!
The best thing about wagons is that there's a new one coming around everyday. I hope you're doing well! Baby steps my friend =)
