    Victory I think you have done a wise thing asking for holiday day so that you don't have to work with this person, let the dust settle. Fingers crossed you can get the modules finished before this person makes your job not worth having.

    Glad you're starting to feel better Eric.

    And Fredsnail thanks not only for the chart but for the notes underneath, they are so very true, I know when I joined MSE and this group I had 3 friends all trying to lose weight too, they all fell off the band wagon rapidly leaving me feeling very exposed and alone. The support I have had on here has made it easier for me to carry on with the weight loss and although I have STS for a few weeks and (holds head high) put a LB back on last fortnight I read with avid interest how everyone is doing and it gives me motivation to keep going too. I used to go to the fridge, open the door and eat several things which were not meant just for one person. I now go to the fridge, open the door, pause and close the door again without removing anything. It would seem I can break the eating habit but I still need to check the light bulb works in the fridge!! :rotfl:

    So for now Guys and Gals keep those chins held up, and sooner than we think we may be down to a chin each!!

    :o:o Errrmm hi guys, Its me again.....can I come back please???

    After a year of not being in control, the switch flipped in my head the other day (after seeing awful photos of myself at my mums birthday party:eek:).

    Now that I've clicked!!! I have restarted cd.

    So put me back on the chart please Fred. My start date was 05.07.10.

    Welcome back bindi, will add you on for next week :) I hate seeing photos of myself - I try to take the pics so I'm not in them - works for most of the time :j

    Victory I think you've done the right thing taking the day off - no point in risking inflaming the situation with things being so fresh - let the dust settle - though I suspect that the supervisor will hold a grudge for months to come. (and it gives you some extra time to look for something else!)

    Thanks for your kind words about my post Hezza, Beanie, AllIwant, and Fellpony. :o

    Eric I'm glad you're starting to feel a little better - I hope it continues.
