Welcome to My World

You might be wondering why I chose such a title for my blog?
There is a lot of things people don't know about me... I have a lot of 'inward' struggles that I go through day-to-day. I'm sure most people do. But I need a release place; a place I can go to when I feel 'under the weather', a place where no one can judge me, a place where I can feel safe. And so I've created this little place.

Thanks for taking a bit of time out of your day, to take a step into my head... x

Exhausted

I can't even remember what I blogged about last...lol! Everytime I promise to blog more, things end up getting all crazy! We are sooooo busy at work. But it should calm down a bit now.

The things taking up alot of our time was the Golf Day we did for a charity... wow! It's stressful planning a Golf Day. It was yesterday, and went pretty well. Except for the guy helping us organize...all he was interested in was taking up all the limelight, and he ended up making his name shit during the prize-giving last night cos he is definately not one to talk in front of people.

Tomorrow is my birthday and this is the first year I'm not even looking forward to it. Reason: Hubby & I have still not been paid for February. So we are battling. All our stop orders have gone off, and there's been no money so they've all been rejected. Hubby is so depressed and so am I. We can't go through anymore, and yet it seems that the bombs keep dropping on top of us, one by one.
My BFF said that she is going to buy meat and booze, then we are gonna braai by our place tomorrow - but i really don't want to. How embarrasing is that? Your friend must pay to do something on your birthday?!

I'm going first thing tomorrow to get my papers done for the payout for my trust fund. And im sending it in tomorrow. They said it gets released once im 25...and it couldn't have come at a better time... A little sooner would've been good, but i have to hold on just a little bit longer. So hold thumbs that they pay out asap because we really need this. Then I'm set for quite a while.

I've been on Simply Slim for 19days now...It's going reasonably well. I am losing... but apparently not as fast as most of the people on it. I think that has to do with my water intake. I HAVE to increase it... i just have to! Going to do some research now...

Anyway, here are the stats for my 19 day loss so far:
I'm only noting my loss...

Waist - down 4cm
Hips - down 4cm
Bust - down 3.5cm
Thigh - down 1.5cm
Arm - down 5.5cm
Total = 18cm lost
Weightloss = 3.5kgs

Hope you're all well...

In Demand, for a change...

I've been quiet for a few days... just haven't had the time to post - but I'll update quick.

I went yesterday(friday) morning for a 2nd opinion on my lower back pain, etc as i was still so sore and couldn't take it anymore. After more tests, etc, turns out I have a bladder infection that went into my kidneys- kidney infection. Atleast now, I'm on the right medication, and am on my way to feeling alot better.

Last night, a friend and her new bf came over - had such an awesome time. Braaied, went through 3litres of Wine between her and myself, lol, danced, played a bit of guitar hero, etc. It was really great!!! Looks like we'll be visiting alot more, as her bf and my hubby get along really well. which is awesome! I said in the beginning of the year - this is the year for NEW friendships...and its happening!

Today we're having a pool party at my place from 2ish with a few of our friends. So it's gonna be another alcoholic-calorie fest - bang goes my calorie restricting. But i will do my best to make up for it afterwards.

You know, last year, it was always hubby & I doing the inviting - wherever we went - clubs, or if we were just having a house party, etc. No one really invited us out. But so far, this year, everyone is inviting us to parties, etc. We are in demand for some or other reason. Maybe it's got to do with the fact of our new friendship circles that we're in. Real friends that we have made. Not people who say they are friends, but turns out they just want something from us. I like it!


Now to just lose this damn weight, so that I don't feel out when the camera clicks.... All these hotties and then the blob! It's so true. I'll post some pics of my cousins welcome back party we had last week - then you'll see. My friends are gorgeous!



Anyway, time for me to end this post - have to get ready for the party this afternoon.
