In an attempt to cheer myself up...

…I tucked into a Christmas selection box. And tweeted it, item by item.
#Eaten a tube of Smarties. Will this cheer me up?

#Milkybar. Just had one. Not perking up yet.

#(yes, I’m tweeting my way through a Christmas selection box).

#Jelly Tots?

#Jelly Tots were ok but reminded me of being 5. Skipping the Tooty Frooties. Bag of Milkybar buttons & another tube of Smarties to go!

(at which point osparrow offered to eat the Tooty Frooties & Milkybar buttons on my behalf).

#which makes my task easier. *moving onto the Smarties*

#Yes, it is lame that I had major surgery & spent £6,500 having a gastric band & I’m sat here guzzling sweets. I DON’T CARE.

#Final sweetie count: 2 tubes of Smarties, 1 packet of Jelly Tots, 1 mini Milkybar. Do I feel better? A little bit. Apart from the food guilt

#Ah fuck it, who cares? I’ve lost 51lbs since March & my hair was falling out. 1 hour of piggging out on sweets won’t kill me.

What would we do without Twitter???

(latest weigh-in news: as of Saturday 18th December I weighed 92.6kg, or 14st 8lb, or 204lb. So I have lost, since March, 3st 9lb, or 51lb, or 23kg. Bear in mind the average weightloss with a band is 1lb a week - I've lost nearly a year's worth of weight in 9 months. I will probably not lose much over the next week, but it's Christmas, and if you want to take the high horse and lecture me and say I can't have one week out of the year where I can eat crap (but *you* can) then you can go fuck yourself with a massive bollard).

  2. You have confirmed my worst fears about Twitter. People do seem to put rather a lot of trivia out there! But I hope you have a good Xmas, whether aided by seasonal joy or chocolate! xxxxxx

  3. PS And congratulations re both the weight loss and your resilence in blogging and joking about the gastric band procedure so quickly after the op itself!

  4. Awesome weight loss... and what sounded like a awesome selection box. I have just eaten so many fruit pastilles, I can't actually feel my tounge. A bollard sounds like it might chafe a bit, so I'll pass and say tuck right in - you deserve it! Eating festive crap rules!

  5. Irene: even the nutritionist I go to see says that you should eat crap *sometimes*! Just not, you know... all the time!!!

    Vanilla Rose: That's why I like it! Plus I'm constantly seeing people tweeting what they're eating for their dinner, so I'm just bringing a more extreme version of it. Could go further: "Have now loaded fork with peas. Will they survive the journey into my mouth or will they fall off on the way there?"

    Well, you have to joke. I was quite scared by it all, and in pain, so really, humour was required!

    Landgirl: Hahahahahah! ;D Yes, might chafe *just a bit*...!
