What an epic 24 hours.
Overall cals yesterday was around 1600, which was fine, though I ate too much fruit. Went to work, I felt a bit poorly. Gradually as my shift went on, I felt worse and worse. I was just trying to get through my shift and get home without being sick. Managed to make it home, then was horrendously sick, I mean like projectile vomit, like the fiercest and most horrific sick I have ever had in my life. I was sick again later but managed to sleep through the night. I have no idea whether it was something I ate, or a bug or something.
This morning I had to get up super early for work, I had to pull an 8 1/2 hour shift (my type of work is that which I am on my feet all the time and constantly moving around).
All I have eaten in the last 27 hours is a banana sandwich for dinner. Fingers crossed I will have lost some weight.
It is always horrible to be sick, but I know that I usually lose weight when I am sick like this. However, I want to lose weight on my own terms and not rely on one-offs like this.

Tough Week
This weeks been really tough...The illness of last week developed in the worst cold I have ever had in my life, unfortunately I have had to work every single day, and could not call in sick....so I haven't been able to rest up as I would have liked....Working 10 hour shifts, standing on my feet all day, means I have been consuming a fair amount of calories...I come home at lunch and when I finish and I am just so hungry.
Haven't done any exercise since Tuesday as I feel like shit.
Intake has been ok: 1300 weds and thurs and 1600 ish today, not bad...though I thought that as I was ill it would kill my appetite and I would not eat much but it seems to have worked the opposite way. Oh well, tomorrow is a new day, and I will hopefully feel better, and start again.
Right now I feel huge...
I have no idea what I weigh...
This terrifies me.

2lbs lighter
Just got off the wii fit, and it informs me that I have lost 2lbs, which was that was my aim for about a week and a half from now, so I am really pleased. I am down to 8st 9 (121 lbs), so the next target is to be 8st 7 within the next two weeks, which was always a pivotal weight for me.
When I was at my lowest weight, I always thought of 8st 7 as my upper boundary, that if I reached that point, enough would be enough and I wouldn't gain any more, however I sadly let myself go way over that this summer. It's sad really, and in fact I am pretty furious with myself, because it took a huge amount of work to get down to 109 lbs and now I'm having to put all that hard work in again, but at least when i reach my goal of 105 I'll know that i've worked bloody hard to get there, and all the hard work will have payed off.
After going through all the effort to lose the weight for a second time, I can't really see myself being too eager to jump back into old habits, so hopefully I will be able to maintain at this lower weight.
