Operation Roxy - In Progress

On The Move

This will be not only my last post for 2007 but my last post for Operation Roxy. I will return no doubt but it is time for a fresh start. I cannot ride on the successes of my past because they are well behind me.

I can't continue with Operation Roxy when I can't get my beloved jeans past my knees now.

Unfortunately I don't know how to wrap things up here. 2007 bought me happiness and heartache.

I started working at Fitness First in March and took the step from Membership Consultant to Senior Membership consultant quickly. I was hoping I would have been an Assistant Manager and Club Manager by now but nope that's where things have stalled. I'm sure it's not too far off. I enjoy my time there and I must say even though I am working some stupidly long hours, the staff there are a tight knit bunch (those that survive anyway) and I have never associated or become such good friends with people I have worked with before as I have there.

Not long after I started at Fitness First I found my ankles which had been giving me trouble for years on and off really started kicking up a stink. I tried a podiatrist, and physio for about 6 months before seeing a sports physician as there was no improvement. An MRI discovered that I had "disintegrated" the tendons and ligaments in my left ankle and the surgeon said it was like a tent with no guideropes. I'm now trying to get on a waiting list for surgery but the public system is disgusting. I haven't even seen outpatients yet and they have had a referral for months. I fear a 2 year wait.

This has played havoc with my emotions (everydy life being difficult to extremely difficult at times) and ongoing from that my weight has skyrocketed and I am HUGE which leads to depression which leads to further weight gain. Arghh bad cycle.

I'm fairly determined to fix it though. I have been doing alot of preparation in the last week or two to help me get back into it like I used to be in January. I turned 27 this past weekend and I had a bit of a breakdown yesterday which was probably mostly hormonal but also had a lot to do with weight issues, and where I am in life in comparison to where I think I should be by now.

Good luck to everyone in 2008! I pray 2007 treated you well and 2008 is truly magical.

I haven't yet decided whether my new blog will be password protected or invite only or totally open so leave me your email if you wish to keep reading just in case.

NEW YEARS EVE

Are there any bloggy plans for New Years? I was seriously hoping there'd be a repeat of last year with the Bendigo girls cause it looked like the perfect NYE and I missed it!

I have a rare day off NY day so I'm pretty keen for a get together.
