retiredlady

Well I gained 2 lbs this week, totally expected since I went so far off the rails last week I was practically on another planet!
Think I am ok now so will try and do better this week, I really need to!

Hi all!!
I'm fat and ashamed!! Joined LW13 (I think) a couple of years ago and failed miserably. Since then I have put on another stone or so and had a baby (He is 7 months now). I really want to lose 5 stone and am determined - did try dieting when LO was 3 months but it really dried up my milk supply so I started eating again. Now he is only getting booby milk in the morning so hopefully I can keep it up!!

Wish me luck! Just made a pot of soup and have a chicken in the slow cooker! Off for a walk with LO in the sling this morning

Pokey - welcome back! Don't be ashamed, be proud that you are trying again. Most people go up and down, if losing weight and keeping it off was easy we wouldn't be posting on this thread!

Congratualtions on your baby and well done for carrying on with the breast feeding.

Hey everyone!

Cracking jokes FFM :P I laughed!! I should ask my bra fitting pal lou bear to get hers out (cos she would and does) and she's got a good pair so she could model and i will demonstrate! Unless youre offering ffm?

Im off to apply for this job, i hate application forms cos im going to come across as a poo and i dunno what to write about myself. I need to get organised, i have files here and at my house and i feel like i have a cluttered mind!!

ciao everyone, for now.

I need to ask a question to all you highly wisdomed people. I'll google wisdomed in a sec

Im applying for a job in tourism, the most important job ive ever applied for.
It says most recent or current job. Do i put Visit Kent (as obvbiously this is the largest tourism thing outside of visit britain bla ba) first or do i put debenhams first at the risk of that sounding really unprofessional and absolutly awful. See the experience ive had at visit kent is much more what the job is about so i dont want that to be on the back burner when that is the main and only tourism experience i have and they state that experience is essential. So what do you think?

Also FFM you wonderful person you!! Can you tell me about a certain city that you live in what its tourism is like? Do you think its good or bad? I know not alot about western kents tourism thing so im at a bit of a loss. I only know its class for shopping and obviously a certain castle being a mecca for tourism in that area, oh and that the park and ride system is rubbish but otherwise nowt. Ohh i wonder what impact the big weekend had and all that stuff. See youre helping without you even saying anything Its good to get info from a resident rather than a brochure, far too one sided! Thanks for any help ffm.

Thanks Beanie, i need them! Its the kinda job ive wanted to get into it since i started learning tourism. Feel like i need more experience though but i gotta stay positive, i tell other people this all the time and i dont even listen to my own advice!

grannynise

I agree with beanie, Vix. But I'd make sure that they see the real positives about your Debenhams job -- E.g. length of service shows that you stay committed to what you do, ease of getting on with people in a slightly embarresing situation shows what a good personality you have, ....

No time for more advice as I'm just about to interview two internal :eek: candidates for a promotion at school. So, whichever one gets it I guess half the school will think I've made the wrong decision and dislike me intensely for a week or two. I'll try very hard not to mind.

We none of us listen to our own advice.

What are we all doing for pancake day? I bought the frozen aunt bessies ones and am pleased to see on the back it says low in fat, cals etc so each one is 90 cals and 1 1/2 point on WW so will have one instead of the later crackers etc so it is accounted for, got the lemon, no sugar for me as I am diabetic, the kids have got toffee, choc ice cream sauce with the lemon, lime and sugar and I also got out of a tin tropical fruit cocktail which looks lovely so will have a spoonful of that in the pancake, have accounted for 1 so one it is:D

Did 1hour on the wii fit, crumbs that was hard going but did it so that is that!
