Hello, Not doing too badly (I've now lost 1 and a 1/2 stone). One thing I am finding & wonder if it is some weird side effect - I am soo cold. I'm up here with a hot water bottle! Anyone else finding this?

CCP

Well done Genuisscuffy! :T

mousey - well done to you too. :T Re feeling cold - what's your iron intake like? I mention it only becuase my sister used to feel cold all the time - she was eventually diagnosed with anaemia and prescribed iron tablets, which solved the problem. If there's any chance this is a problem for you, it might be worth visiting your GP to get it checked out.

newlywed - how did today's interview go? And good luck for tomorrow.


I was being really good today, then blew it this evening with a really unhealthy dinner. That's two days in a row that I've done that - I must be good from now on. :o

I've had:
Breakfast - one wheat biscuit, last of the packet of honey loop cereal (about one and a half handfuls of loops), dried apricots, semi skimmed milk
Snack - handful of roasted cashews; pear
Lunch - salami and tomato sandwich
Dinner - sausage, onion, pesto and cheese wraps

I haven't even had my five a day today, I've realised - very bad CCP! :o

Hi CCP, I think it went ok. It wasn't very long though so I'm not sure I had to try and convince them why I don't want to do the kind of work I was doing, but want to work there Should hear by end of the week, but the interview tomorrow (for the kind of work I was doing) want to decide by the end of the day as they want immediate start. Think its gonna get confusing .

I want to do the job that's different (from today), even though I haven't done lots of it. It's also nearer so I wouldn't have much excuse to not walk most days if the weather was good - which would help my increasing butt Just not sure I really sold myself completely

Tomorrow's is in another town, so bus fare every day, and interview is with set questions in front of a panel of people - scary! Good thing that I know the type of job though.

I dunno. But there have been rather too many low fat banana muffins consumed this afternon
