365 Days
The awesome Tiny Donna inspired me a few months ago to join Flickr and partake in the 365 project. It's basically a project where you take a photo of yourself every day for a year. I made it to day 99 but had missed a few days here and there. I am restarting but thought I would share the photos I took for the first attempt. Note that the project allows any part of yourself to be in the photo so thats why sometimes you'll only see a foot or a hand etc...

Could things get any worse?
Had 3 aboriginal girls come into the shop today and 2 of them distracted me while the other one stole my work mobile & my purse with $60 in it and all my cards license etc.
And to make things even worse Billy put in his pin number wrong 3 times so neither of us have a working keycard.
FUCKING FANTASTIC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm not dead
Hey all,
Yes I am still alive. I am not sure if anyone is checking on here but hi all!!
Things have been kind of up & down here lately. We have had some shit to deal with with our property back in the US and it was looking like we were going to have to postpone going back, BUT Billy's folks bailed us out AGAIN! God I love them so much!
I am getting really excited about moving back. So many things I am looking forward to.
I am totally obsessed with Flickr and if anyone wants to check out my photo skills (not much!!) you can check it out here
Weightloss wise I have no idea how much I weigh. I havn't been to a WW meeting in a month at least. I havn't weighed myself here at home either. My clothes feel the same so at least I don't think I have gained!!
Well thats about it!!
xox

Fragile
I am feeling rather fragile at the moment and little things are really getting to me more than normal.
So I am going to take a break from Blogger. I don't know why I am even writing this as I don't think anyone is reading anymore. This is one of the things thats getting to me.
I don't have any real life friends and now I kind of feel like my online friends have abandoned me too.
I know people have their own lives and stuff so don't think I am being a selfish bitch. I just am going through a rough patch and would really rather just not have this added to it all.
Not sure when I will come back.

Scared
No weigh-in for me tomorrow, instead I am getting my Implanon taken out! oohhh Am shitting myself a little. Me no likey pain.
I want to have a baby. LIKE NOW! Every time I see a baby in the shops etc I get all gooey. I held a baby at work the other day for a customer and OMG I almost cried. SERIOUSLY...
We have to wait though. We havn't even had genetic counselling which is highly recommended for Fragile X carriers.
Shit... shit... FUCK..
I feel like time is slipping away. I am 32. Not getting younger and a side-affect from carrying the Fragile X chromosome can be Total Ovarian Shutdown leading to infertility and early menopause.
FUCK... Sorry about all the swearing but I am sitting here next to my beautiful sleeping husband and I want to have his baby so bad it actually physically hurts me.
ok.. I'm ok.. I think..

Dammit!
I bloody gained!
0.4kg. Am pissed off... but I was not 100% perfect this week so I can't say I am surprised. So now I am 700g away from that bookmark. Fucking bookmark. It haunts me!
I have felt like crap all day. Every now and then I get Facial Neuralgia which is basically nerve pain on the left side of my face. My ear, cheek and gum on that side aches for a couple of days and it sucks balls.
Anyway, apart from that all is good I suppose.

Can I do it?
Can I lose 300g tomorrow?
I weighed myself this morning and I have gained, however my scales at home are a little unreliable.
I really want that bookmark dammit!! And I want another Pandora charm! I have actually stopped wearing the bracelet because its so empty! 5 charms is all I have so I am punishing myself by not wearing it. I really should have lost a bunch more by now.
WE are supposed to be going to the movies tonight to see Ironman but I am so tired, I don't really want to. Ashley stayed home today aswell so he might not even want to go (doubt it though!!)
I havn't been sleeping alot lately. Lots of stuff going through my mind.
Well wish me luck for my weigh in tomorrow. Fingers crossed.

Weigh-in
I lost 1kg. Not too bad considering I am sooooo bloated!! Stupid period!
So now I am 800g away from my bookmark and I have to wait 2 weeks before I can weigh in again.
I will bloody get it at next weigh in or I am going to SCREAM!
Posted by NikkiD at 2:00 PM 4 comments
DAMMIT!
Woke up this morning all crampy and bloated... yep TTOM has come! Oh wonderful! Could have waited just 1 day, but no it has to come now on weigh in day.
So I highly doubt I'll get my bookmark today. And next week I have to miss my meeting as the girl I swapped with already had an ultrasound appointment booked in for the Wednesday.
Oh well, I should know not to expect big things anymore!!
Will fill you all in on how it goes later.

Private Blog
Ok, I have decided to keep a private blog again.
I am totally fine with people reading about my weightloss and stuff but I am starting to feel a little uncomfortable with the whole world knowing all my personal stuff aswell.
Now there are a few of you who will get automatic invites to my private blog, but of anyone else out there wants an invite, let me know and if I feel that I can trust you with all my crazy crap you'll get access too.
So let me know your email addresses & I'll add you.
electrongirl@iinet.net.au
Thanks peeps
