I managed to not put anything on, still at 12.6 stone so I don't feel like I've wrecked things totally, I've been avoiding the forum out of guilt a little bit but I'm back! 

It took around a month to recover from pleurisy, and the hospital doctor told me to not stress out over what I was eating so much and to just listen to what my body wanted, and especially with the antibiotics they gave me, I couldn't keep any food down long enough so I thought "well, I don't want to waste the orlistat " and fast forward to a now, I've managed to get back on them today. Phew! 

Trying not to be mad at myself about setting myself back but it's hard not to feel so guilty!

      Thanks Britney smile 

      I'm only 5'4 so I think the doctors want to see me at about 9 stone 4, even though I'm built like a plough without the chub haha. 

      I'm feeling much better, managed to get back to roller derby last week too (even though I've lost all my endurance sigh!) so thankfully I've managed to stick to exercising!
