    Well it worked and thank you because HE GOT THE JOB:j :j :j :j :j he has just rang me to tell me that he had the interview in a huge room with 5 interviewers, the moment he walked in (having heavily rehearsed questions and answers) the first question was 'tell me about yourself' he said he was a bit thrown but started slow but well, each interviewer scores him out of 3 , he had the interview, thanked them left the room and one of the men came running after him to tell him he had scored 3 out of 3 from all of them and out of the 9 (he was told there was only 2 but there was 9) he was by far the best and they would like to offer him the job:j :j

    He is very pleased and I am ecstatic for my son as he is sitting his sats and choosing his options and was very unhappy about having to move schools which would have been very disruptive for him and unsettling but we won't have to now, or at least not straight away.

    It is about time there was some good news in this house for a change.



    :cool: I have the power!:cool:

    Seriously though I am so pleased for you. Nice to have some good news isn't it? And this is just the start now - remember the positive thinking!!

    Love

    Well done to everyone who has lost this week (especially Beanielous with a great loss). Congrats to MR V, chin up to Mr BB and hope you are all doing ok. I've been bad bad bad this week (again!!!) and so no weigh in for me. This is happening too much but perhaps my own way of maintaining is big swings up and down (but in just a couple of weeks)? Oh well, onwards...

    efrieze, do you keep a food diary? I find that i go wrong when I don't fill it in, and then i hide from the scales. Sometimes you have to get on the scales to see the damagein order to find your focus again. Also, how will you know how much you've lost last week if you don't find out what it is this week. You could be missing out on a huge weight loss moment!!

    Bails, are you okay? have pm'd you.

    Great news from victory, lets hope it's catching!!

    hello all

    i am embarking on a weight loss exercise.
    this is mainly because on friday i received the news that i had early onset menopause , and have started a course of hrt!!
    i thought id been putting on weight the last couple of years-- together with some other strange symptoms!!--so the diagnosis answered a lot

    i eat 90% healthily, dont drink or smoke ( boring you know what!!)- but dont do exercise- mainly because i hate anysort of exercise- always have!!

    anyway , i have seen a weight loss tablet called proactol- can anyone here say whether they have used it, and if it helped?


    many thanks:j

    Hi all

    Granny can you put me in for 1lb gain this week please.

    I was really disappointed as I thought I had been really good last week - that was until I started thinking more about what I had eaten and it must have been the kebab I had at the beginning of the week - or was it the chilli burger and chips I had at the pub on Thursday. Or it could have been the whole box of matchmakers we didn't use at the Beavers on Thursday night. Or maybe it was the box of milk tray I ate on Sunday for mother's day.

    There again - on looking back - maybe I wasn't very good after all so I deserve to have that 1lb gain.

    Hopefully back on track this week.

    Victory I'm so pleased for you and your husband. Well done!

    Granny, please could you put me down for a 0.5lb loss this week. Struggled a bit but am trying to make a fresh start today.

    Sorry can't get colours to work.

    Hello everyone. Granny can you put me down for a loss of 1lb this week please. I am a bit more motivated this week having FINALLY lost a stone last week, what a struggle. Well done to everyone on their weightloss, and commiserations to anyone who has gained or stayed the same!

    :beer: (of course really that's low calorie beer!)
