I rationalized that my new shoes shouldn't be punished just because I can't budget

    Nothing much happened today! Shoes arrived :D, pretty much stuck to my diet

    Have been pondering how to approach the fact that I need a change at work - difficult ot know how to go about it as I have no relationship with my boss so would have to 'go around' him!

    No texts :(

    Something to ponder - if instead of losing and gaining the same 5lbs over and over again I had lost a pound a week since New Year I would be 2 stone lighter now! :mad:

    I just don't feel stretched at the moment so just some sort of new project really. There are a few things happening in my company but I just need to make sure I am in the right place for new opportunities

    Yep,

    the same though often crosses my mind ... if you find the answer to make that happen, you can probably wave goodbye to any money worries ;).

    Drinks last night ;)

    Nothing much planned this weekend, but really need to get domestic 'stuff' done and do some exercise! Have been quite good with food so will weigh in tomorrow

    Had my nails and eyebrows done this morning then went shopping to buy something for my 'not a date' on Wednesday! :D Got a snakeskin print top from Zara, to wear with skinny jeans and the Aldo shoes - do you think that will look 'this old thing, of course I've not made an effort' enough??? :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    Nothing planned this evening -think I might bake a cake

    Have lost a couple of pounds this week so am back down to half a stone loss :) Now I just need to keep going, rather than the usual pattern of 'I've been good, now I can be naughty' :mad: Maybe the thought of the 'not a date' will keep me on track! ;)
