    Motivation is still low but I have managed to lose 2lbs this week so am back to a stone loss now! Adding another half stone to my target now, need to get to the gym.

    Nothing planned for the weekend, except looking for my motivation!!!'

    All my mojo has gone - I'm blaming the weather!

    Managed the gym on Saturday and Body Pump on Sunday but didn't go last night - and not motivated to go tonight either! :o Eating was terrible yesterday - just couldn't stop eating and feel bloated and yuck today as a result! Been better today, so far, let's see what this evening brings

    Lost weight last week so had a little moment with the Kurt Geiger sale - didn't have vouchers/points etc so actual spend but only £29 - and sooooooooo beautiful! :)

    Redeemed my last Nectar points for Amazon vouchers before it ends at the end of the month - have my eye on a silver bangle. I also have nearly £300 worth of vouchers in my work incentive scheme so am planning a treat! Can have Amazon or House of Fraser - I currently have a Michael Kors watch, and Michael Kors bag and some Ted Baker shoes on my wish list - decison time! But a nice one to have to make :D. I redeemed £30 M&S last week to cover my Mum's birthday next week too

    Have moved offices at work and have a 1-2-1 with my boss tomorrow so will hopefully get an idea of what's in store for me workwise. I still think I would like a move but after several hours online last week there really wasn't anything to apply for so keeping my head down here ;)

    Bargain :T You always seem to do great at getting high quality items for reasonable prices. £29 is 2 pairs of Primark shoes so you did good :A

    No Nectar card scheme here but the loss of the Amazon vouchers seems like a very big loss to MSE types. I've not read the threads about it because it's not relevant to me but it does seem strange because there are so many reward/survey type schemes that allow for Amazon vouchers.

    Time to refocus although I'm really not feeling it! Have let dieting and exercise slip, and am a pound heavier this morning so I need to get back on track! I need to eat better as well as less, exercise and generally look after myself! ;)

    Amazon vouchers have come through so I'm going to order my bracelet - and my shoes have just been delivered so I need to go downstairs and collect them - I'm sure new shoes will put a smile on my face! :D

    Still not got any get-up-go! Really struggling to motivate myslef to exercise :o

    Meeting with my boss seemed to go well and it looks like I will be working on some more interesting projects, possibly with some sort of financial incentive scheme - so fingers crossed :)

    I have ordered another pair of shoes from the Kurt Geiger sale :p

    And drinks with TM next week! :D

    TFI it's Friday! Been a long week!

    Quite a bit of 'stuff' to do over the weekend including finding my exercise mojo! :o

    Nothing much else to report, a work lunch today which will be nice then hoping for an early(ish) finish so I can go and collect my prescription as my excema had really flared up, then the gym after that
