Eric - I so admire you and your mental strength and your honesty, so many others would just give up but I love the way you keep getting up every day and facing down your challenges. More power to your elbow!! :T

Welcome to yet more newbies!! :hello:

Hezza - what OU course are you doing? Hope your essay got away OK?

Thanks for asking! I'm doing a BA Hons in English Language Literature (year 2, only 4 more to go!) and my current course is on the Literature part, so lots of reading - poetry, Shakespeare etc plus Jane Austen, feminist writings, Ibsen plays etc etc. All very informative and (in the main) quite engaging. I submitted my last essay 3 days early so should get my mark any day now (the tutor is usually pretty prompt with marking assignments). 2 more assignments to go, then an exam in June. :eek: (been a few years since I last sat in an exam hall!). I've already registered for my next course on creative writing, which will start in October. I really wanted something to go stright onto after this one just to save a bit of time but all of my subject areas have either October or February start dates.

So I heard today that I have my second interview all set up for Thursday and the agency asked for my references today, so all being well I start my new job next Monday!!

Me too, i quite agree and thanks.

jeez hezza!! I regret not trying harder in english, it was something i didnt have to try hard at to get one of the best grades i could achieve. At one point i was almost kicked out for mt attendence.

Although as you can tell years of not having to write properly has affected my english

Just finished 2nd pilates session of the week.........

Having just not fully recovered from the session on Saturday (didn't realise quite how unfit I was:o) probably not my best decision and have another one booked for Thursday:eek:

I don't expect to see results for the weigh -in tomorrow but by god there better be some in the very near future, would hate to think I am in this much pain for nothing!!!!!!!

Please somebody post a reply telling me it will get easier............really please!!!!!

But just think of the wonderfully toned body you're going to be getting.

3.2 lb loss this week which matches last week, seams to be a pattern forming here :rotfl:

Its under what I need to maintain my goal for the end of the year .. but i seam to have found my metabolic level at the moment at around 1600-1700 cals a day, for the moment

Well done Eric!:T Just a thought to make you feel better about your partner being away - when she comes back she will really notice the difference in your weight. When you are around someone all the time; you know that they are losing weight but you don't really get the impact of it because you see them everyday! So happy days for you!:j:j:j

ps Good Morning:)

Good morning all!!:D As expected a gain for me this week but only +1LB, so not too bad considering the cr*p I've been eating for the last few days. The last of the birthday cake is gone so back on the wagon big time, currently eating porridge oats with a dash of honey for brekky! that will fill me up for most of the morning hopefully!
