    :T Well done on reaching your weight goal P! Any tips as I've ground to an annoying halt on that front.

    What's the new maroon5 like?

    Thanks DBG :)
    I have been doing Weightwatchers since October 2007 and the new Pro points plan is the reason I am at goal :D I was struggling on the Discover plan but the Propoints plan was made just for me
    :D
    Eat when you are hungry and snack on fruit - the new plan fruit and most veg are 0 points.

    The new Maroon 5 album is brilliant I can't wait to go and see them - Saw a photo of Adam Levine a week or so ago but I don't think I would get away with posting it on this site as it leaves very little to the imagination :D:D

    I am taking at least tomorrow off work - Still very little voice and I am feeling terrible :( I went for a walk with my dad and niece today and was absolutely shattered after only 5 minutes managed to make it to the shops and back but came home had some homemade soup then went to bed for 3 hours :eek:
    So plan for tomorrow is to go to the Doctors and see what they say about my cough and cold.
    Another NSD today so the total has risen to 14
    :D

    I was babysitting last night so the 1st of my babysitting money is now in my ISA account - Another £40 added, house savings total is in my signature, hopefully it won't take too long to build up!

    Thanks Beanie :D
    I am very proud of myself :T
    My leader asked me as we were leaving yesterday if I had thought about becoming a leader - she is going to get me the information on it, but from looking at the website and starting to fill the form in you need to upload your CV - I don't have one!! :eek:
    Last CV I did was 9 years ago when I started my current job, so when I go back to work I am going to speak to my boss and see if she has my old one and if I can maybe get a copy and add to it from there.
    Once I have the information I may just apply to be a WW leader :D

    How are you feeling today P? Any better? Once the Anti-B's kick in I guess you'll notice a real improvement quite fast.

    Another well done on getting to goal as well, and fingers crossed on your application to be a WW leader - that would give you even more of an incentive to maintain as well of course! :j

    Hi EH
    Getting my voice back slowly!! feeling a bit better today although still quite tired - Not slept today though :)

    I know I have to go through an interview and things but it would be yet another challenge for me which I think I could handle - The more I think about it the more I am looking forward to helping others to lose weight as well :)
