Surprise!!!!

Just managing to get a second post in this month - by the skin of my teeth!

Not really sure where October has gone, it has certainly been busy. I've bought my niece's bridesmaid's dress this week which was exciting. I saw the one I wanted on the Coast website, went to see it in the shop and loved it. I then found a voucher for 25% off which was fab!

We've also booked the honeymoon - yippee!! Two weeks all inclusive in Mauritius - can't wait, I think I'm almost more excited about that than the wedding (almost but not quite!!).

The weight is staying firm. I spoke to the bariatric nurse a few weeks ago and, rather surprisingly, she has suggested having a little bit of fluid taken out. She says if it is too tight, you end up eating what will go down rather than what is good for you (which is very true!!). I've not quite got my head around that yet - loosen it to lose weight ... can't be right!!! I will see how it goes over the next few weeks.

Mum and I are going wedding shopping tomorrow! My dad is having his second knee replacement operation and my Mum is such a worrier that I know the only way to distract her is to do something like that. We're hoping to sort out the invites - I'm starting to worry about them now!! They have to go out in January and will need to be printed up etc. We will be quite near to the hospital so we can get there as soon as we hear that he's back on the ward.
