    That sounds like great advice Jay - I'm intrigued about what you do now.....pm me if you don't want to announce it!
    Victory - I was also going to say I had heard that they are taking people on for Christmas at M&S and that they will probably turn into full time jobs - it may be worth checking your local shop if that appeals - think of the discounts!!
    Went to the gym tonight - fun as ever but had a big eat bag of quavers on the way home - hey ho they were nice and tomorrow is another day!!

    Thanks fitorburst, I studied occupational therapy (OT), and am planning to specialse in mental health. I really, really love it because there's so much variety, and am looking forward to getting into work. Just need to find a job within reasonable commuting distance, to fit in with family.
    Anytime;)

    Wow, how do you all stay so positive?! Honestly I cannot think of one thing I like. I've got fat arms, fat short legs, fat stomach, wide big fat bum and huge b00bs that get in the way - ok my b00bs look great in a top but when nothing - they are just round my ankles :'(

    Hi Stacey, you sound like me but without the big boobs, and I'd guess I'm a good bit older than you too, lol. How about thinking of which bit you dislike least, or which bit you like sometimes. I think most people struggle, but it's well documented that positive thinking helps with weight loss, so worth trying.

    Good luck Victory, 15 miles can be a fair way on the bus, depending on how reliable the service is. I don't even want to think about long commutes but will have no choice. I do drive though, (have to for the job anyway,) so that helps. I'm trying to find something under 30 miles away, but all the interesting jobs are further than that, it's going to be interesting, lol.
    Anytime;)

    I dont know, cos when i was younger i hated everything to, and going swimming in a costume i hate it all aswell, but i guess when there is a man who seems to appreciate it all you kinda think maybe its ok!

    You said your boobs look great in a top so there we go!! Who cares if they go in the wrong direction when theyre out of a bra. Go and get yourself fitted, youre young enough to halt the sagging process. Plus, i doubt many men would be complaining would they!

    OMG swimming - horrible!! I've got a man who loves me and always makes nice jokes about my wobbly bits, its not him im worried about, its me - I just hate the mirror. Lol no he doesnt complain about my boobs but I hate it when I lye on my back and they are flat!! Hopefully when ive lost my weight (seems soo far away lol) I will be able to come back on here and say 'i love 'x' about my body. thanks xx
