    I received my exam results this morning.......

    I have only passed 4/5 which is not good enough.

    I do not have the qualification.

    I will not be going to university as planned in September as my next opportunity to re-sit is December.

    Might go quiet for a bit but dont worry I am OK, just licking my wounds.

    Please dont mention this on FB any of my friends, I really dont want the fact that I am a total failure broadcasting to people at work.
    But these things take time, I know that I'm, the most inept that ever stepped.

    Back from my holiday and back to the dieting. I got on the scales this morning and I am 5 Lbs down from the beginning of the year (10 was the most I'd lost!).

    From here it's the big push to lose weight before the 1st of December! I'd love:smileyhea to lose a stone before Christmas.....

    Good Luck!

    What do we do when we fall? We get up, dust ourselves off and start walking in the right direction again. Perhaps when we fall, it is easy to forget there are people along the way who help us stand and walk with us as we get back on track.

    Lou - you are not a total failure. You passed 4 out of 5 which is an achievement in itself. Think of all the times your learners haven't succeeded at the first try - would you say they were total failures? No, you'd encourage them to come back and try again. You'd explain that it will be fine and that it just means a time delay in achieving the ultimate goal.

    I think you've done brilliantly well. xxx

    Lou - I second (or third, fourth, fifth) what has already been said - you are not a failure.

    I have a 3 1/2 lb loss to report - not sure how it happened but very happy with it.
