    Well done on the weight loss missy, but are you going to stop sending it all to me! I at least managed the gym tonight but it was half-hearted!

    You are all putting me to shame. I have done no excercise for months, and yesterday was out on the road and instead of making myself a proper lunch I had crisps, choc bar and nearly a whole bag of jelly babies (dont worry Jellie is safe!).

    Spent the rest of the day with sugar cravings, had some cake then made toast with fresh baked loaf. Nightmare.

    Hope you all have a good day, I'm off to get porridge.

    Well was 60.4 Kilos this morning, so lost 0.4 yesterday, did work pretty hard on the cross trainer and had a tiny tea, so will try and keep it up today.

    I had porrdige with honey this morning and have my harvest bars, apple, banana and sandwiches for throughout the day then fajitas tonight, but I'm only going to have 2 instead of 3, must go on the cross trainer again!

    Really need to get my beach body!

    hmmm feeling a bit sad today

    Last year I was going for a massive promotion (lots of jobs not just one), which would have been hard work but got me great status and pay etc, but I ended up not doing it mostly because I met OH and my circumstances changed, now the person that was going for it with me he starts the training in May... and I have to say I'm a little jealous, wondering what my life could have been like.... and I know I should be happy that I'm getting married and trying for a baby and starting my degree etc... but I just wonder if I made the right choice.... deep down I know I did I just hate regretting things.....

    Sorry for the off topic ramble.

    Hi Missy,

    Don't feel sad, you know you made the right choice. Work mustn't be as important as personal life, we all have made wrong decisions -life is too short for regretting things like this. I went for work, I'm in a job which I love but nowhere near close to my dream job. I made the decision to stay here for an another year at least, just because of money (dream job would pay me about 20 grand less per year-I would not be able to buy a house, have a baby, travel every now and than) and not to try for a baby (being extremely broody does not help!), not to do this and that. It's my choice, I do not regret it. I know my time will come sooner or later, will have the wedding, the baby, the family house, etc. So just cheer up and see what is in front of you, you're getting married, trying for baby - these are far more important than having a good job!
