i have great news . . . ..

I GOT A NEW JOB!!!!!!!!!!!!!

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I didn't mention it before because i felt like i'd jinxed the last one by getting too excited - also i know there are people in the office that use the board and my avatar is very recognisable.

I start 24th November at symingtons - the company that makes ainsley harriot couscous amongst other things. It's a very similar job to what I do now, but better pay, better hols, better hours and only 10 miles from home.

YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I am really excited for you especially as it is so close to home, less petrol money, no early mornings etc well done you:j :j :j :j :j :j :j :j :j :j :j

kpc, this is fabuous news: well done you:j :j . Victory - this is a very positive step forward re the job centre. And you are right, it's the people that you work with that make a job good or not.
Jay - it is difficult when life gets in the way. When you next have a breather, can you batch cook, or cook double portions so you have your own home made ready meal to take out the freezer for those rushed days.
Vix - I hope the move has gon well. Very excited for you. As well as drinking boring tea, now you have joined the ranks of dull grown uppery, you have to talk about the price of cabbage a lot.
Have a great hols granny & julesgr.

Hi everyone. I wish to come back (if you'll have me). I have been bad bad bad in the last few weeks and I needed to get it all out of my system before I come back refocussed. I am going to start my LW journey again as of today. I wish to be at total loss of 0. (GN - please zero my weight loss on the chart) I don't know whether this means I am burying my head about how much i have GAINED in the last few weeks or whether I was previously hiding behind the big loss I had banked to now.

Anyway, exercise regime restarts now (or perhaps Monday as I don't usually have a chance to go the gym at the weekend) and today is going to be the first day in a while where I don't scoff chocolate and other unnecessary indulgences!

I am also going to read this site everyday (I hide from you guys when I don't want to admit to myself what I am doing!). I'd love the chance to take over the chart sometime soon too (as it FORCES me to visit you all daily).

I think that there are 9 weeks until C#@&tmas (I can't say that word in case it upsets some people) and if I can shift 1-1.5lbs per week until then, I will be happy.

Day 1 day 1 day 1....

Hello from Malta!!

I'm about to board the plane to come back home but I found a computer with free internet access and thought I'd say hello. See you all later (def no weight loss this week!).

Efrieze - I hadn't considered you 'gone away' .You're still very much part of the gang. I'm struggling too at the mo. But I have definite signs my drugs re messing my system up and it appears I am semi permanantly on a PMT sugar craving at the mo as my cycle is completely screwed (can be a side affect, I've just not had it before). And when that craving hits I'm just a girl who can't say no:o . Half a stone higher than I should be at the mo.

kpc - when do you start your new job?

Congratulations KPC! well done to you

hello tagz whos probably not in malta anymore

The flat move has been good, but i havent felt ive enjoyed it yet. Literally from yesterday lunch time till whatever time at night we were moving boxes, getting chairs to sit on, getting a take away ect. Matts gone to work today so ive popped back to my mothers house! to not be a loner.

Did my first shop last night aswell. No one told me how expensive toilet roll is!!!! Lord. Im soooooo tired, i cant find anything its soo annoying. I think i have nicotene withdrawl from passive smoking. I feel alot more better now im home, ive had a headache all day and im half brain dead. Ohh i've met my neighbours, one is a paramedic and the other a teacher.

I've also popped back home twice to watch neighbours! is that sad? ha.

see ya all later, next time i speak i should have a sofa!!

thanks folks, much appreciated. I start 24 November. Can someone look up the syn values of the ainsley couscous and rice range on green? I know mugshotz are free - did i mention that my new company makes mugshotz?

hope this buoys you up too victory - i've been feeling like an utter waste of space for quite a while, and this has boosted my confidence like you wouldn't believe. So much so that I tried a recie tonight that i have never dare too before - it's an egg drop soup recipe with tofu and nori in it. Although it must be said that right now it looks like a big bowl of sick.

yay to see efrieze back and here goes day one. I find the thread really helps me stay on track too. and glad the move is going well vix. wait till you start cooking in there - the first few meals cost a fortune! you don't realise how much you rely on store cupboard ingredients till you have an empty storecupboard. IT will get better though! Did you eat your first meal on the floor surrounded by boxes? oooh, i want to move house now!
