hypno06

That's excellent news YL!! A pay rise and extra money coming through too.....can't be bad!

I have posted on the "positive aims for May" thread and have committed to loading at least 10 things on ebay and do a car boot sale with Pania.........lets hope they are just as successful!

Afternoon everyone...you've done loads today Hypno...so are you doing the Atkins diet to the letter then?
Duchy well done on the job and JB can't believe you are posting from where you are.Hope you're having a wonderful time

hypno06

Hi taxi! I am being very good with the Atkins, but not doing the diet as it says in the book, ie not following daily menu plans etc.....because I don't want to be restricted by a book!

But, yes, I am being quite strict with myself - at least until most of the weight is off, then I will be a bit more relaxed. Mind you, I did buy some 85% cocoa lindt chocolate today, as it is very low carb, and I can have the occasional square - I am going to see if I can control my chocolate eating!!

Wish me luck!

taxi73

you're doing really well on it and I'm going to knuckle down when I get back from Cuba to try and loose a load by the time I go to Mexico and perhaps it'll help my back.Enjoy your chocolate -sparingly!!...don't think I could do that but you are stronger willed than me.

Verbatim

Hi hypno,

So this is where you've got to! Great to see there are already 10 pages of your new diary.

Good luck with the new job next week. And fantastic that your dd has the place at college for the sports diploma. She'll have her work cut out with GCSEs and that at different sites. hope she won't miss too many lessons at school while she's at college/travelling.

thanks Verbatim - we have had a meeting with her head teacher about the workload, and she says she is self motivated enough to do all the work and between them they are prepared to send the work to France or wherever, so hopefully it will all work out ok with a bit of effort on everyone's part.

Just got back from doing the karate admin, via the ski club because the children were race training - oh the things we do!! Now I am going to be indulgent and watch the Apprentice with my small ration of chocolate and a cup of (decaf) coffee.

Morning guys!

More college stuff today - someone is coming over this morning to work with me so will hopefully get much more done as a team!

Then coffee briefly with a friend at lunchtime, and the children are at the opticians after school.

I also need to chase up the credit of my winnings with one of the bookies last night - £35 has gone missing :eek:

Loans have gone out today, but snowball calculator is showing an error message so I can't update! How very dare it!!

Happy New Month everyone xxx
