Have you ever looked at a gravestone? On it you will find the date a person was born - and the date that person died. In between is a dash. This small symbol signifies a persons whole existence. When it comes time for my dash to be chipped in, I want to know I lived a full and wondrous life.

A change of template - and attitude!

Hiya all,

Yes, I changed my template. I found the other one looked crowded and messy (might have had something to do with me mucking around with the colours etc lol) but I think this one looks so much cleaner and brighter.  

I woke up this morning feeling excited and rejuvinated. It's like I have something really big to look foward to and slowly my mind is making the shift it needs to get me on the road to improvement. I have had a bit of a busy one today - which is what I need, because right now hubby is away working, and I'm missing him like crazy! Whenever we are separated - which seems to have been a lot over the last few years with him working away so much - I feel like half of me is missing. Same old cliche, yet so, so true. Ying and yang have nothing on us! 

Nothing much otherwise to report. I have been going over my information (read: getting things straight and through my thick(ish) skull) regarding the do's and dont's of being on liquids for a few weeks before the op. Got a few things to do this week which begins with buying my optifast -I start this coming friday, whooo  (and did I just give a whooo for whats going to be a hard yet fruitful few weeks? I think I did! lol) ... and I have to go buy a new blender. My old one died "The Sudden Death of a Thousand Milkshakes and Smoothies. Thanks kids! RIP old blender. I need a shiny new replacement. The hunt begins......

Anyways, that's it for this report. Wasnt that exciting reading.....not!! 
Catcha later

  1. Of course it's exciting!!!!! lol
    I didn't have to do the optifast....they don't make you do it here in Tassie...no idea why...every surgeon is different...which tends to get a bit confusing when reading everyone's blogs!! Not sure that I could stick to it to be honest.....but I know you will do well:)
    Keep us informed of your progress. All I can remember about going on Optifast years ago was that it gave me green poo!!!!!!!!!
