Time to get my life sorted out............

Yup denial is the worst thing.

I am 14st 12lbs. That is an absolute fact as the scales do not lie.

This will be the last time I will be this weight. I am making a change to ensure that this is the case.

I love ebaying but once I start I want to sell everything in my house!

My 3rd driving lesson was amazingggggggggg. Today I reversed around a corner, preformed a turn in the road & parallel parked. So chuffed with myself. Next 2/3 lessons will be perfecting everything that I have learned so far & we will add in hill starts & emergency stops. Once that is all done he will start me on mock tests.

A good way of 'never being that weight again' is sell everything (or bin/charity shop depending on quality/worn-ness!) everything that's too big for you. Big sizes sell quite well on eBay too. I had some 18-20 things I sold and they did really well! Tried to sell a couple of 14 bits and they didn't shift haha.

(Another non MSE to stay slim is to spend stupid amounts on a gorgeous new wardrobe... Hence my current debt! Haha oh well at least I have those things to console me as I pull the purse strings this year!)

Glad your back driving and good luck with the weight loss. I need to buy some scales to face up to the problem as I have no idea what I weigh now!!

Hope the job situation improves soon for you DR x

Yeah I have done this already!

My husband bought me this gorgeous dress which was very expensive & I have never fitted into it.

I would LOVE to be able to wear it on our anniversary as a wee surprise cos I am sure he would have forgotten all about the dress or just gave up on the idea of me being slim cos I have been dieting since 2008 & I have just gotten bigger & bigger.

Me too I mean we could survive ok but just not be able to save but I don't want that plus I am starting to climb the walls with boredom.

Get some scales & we can work on the weight together this year.

Sounds like a great incentive! I did that for one of mine, and now it's too big! I think I found losing weight easier than paying off debt so this year I shall reverse that! (But not put weight on!)

Day 2 of the diet is goin we'll & I was in town today without eating or drinking anything bad!!! Go meeeeeeeeeeeee.

Had an interview at an agency today & they called me back to say I passed the assessment & one of their clients wants me to go for an assessment day. This will entail a listening & data input exercise, group participation to see how our questioning skills are, a call & report which will be timed. IF we pass all of that which will take 1/2 day then we will be invited back for an interview the same afternoon.

Jeezoooooooooo when did it become this difficult to get a darn job.

Anyhoo on another note 3 of my eBay items have bids yayyyyyyyyyy.

Also done another survey & earned £2.00. My total earnings for that are £5.00 when it gets to £50.00 they will send me a cheque - cannot wait for that.

Is that newvista? That's the only one of mine that does the cheque. Takes a while but it is nice when you get it!! (And £5 quick is great, I've been stuck on £30 for a while!)

MySurvey is good cos you can redeem as low as £3 on paypal (didn't realise until I ordered the £15 and saw the other options) and you use the same points per £1 too, so it's not better to wait and get more if you get me! I'm still waiting for mine haha!)

Well done on sticking to the diet too! I've been good today but I always am when I'm at work, no time to be naughty!

Jobs are ridiculous to get now, the application forms are novels and the interview process is years long! Sounds very promising though!

No it's populuslive.

Only done 2 surveys. They sent me one last week & I wasn't eligible so even if I get 2 vouchers a year that would please me!!

It sounds promising but this interview sounds really stressful!!

Just need to try & stay calm.
