    Lucky, I've no doubt if you wanted to you'd be a fantastic Consultant, and very motivating. However, do remember that your Consultant is probably hoping to get a referral fee if you sign up for a franchise (and it's likely to be a franchise that you'll be asked to buy).
    What would you get if all you got was what you were thankful for?

    Lucky sorry I missed the new re consultant job. from what I have heard (a friend looked at doing it) there is an awful lot of paperwork and commitment and I think you are wise waiting a while! Although you are not a big fan of your A*** job you often talk about the discount being a huge benefit too plus you know your hours and can refuse overtime...

    you really should book that appointment too! xx

    Went to GP today Sparky. Had bloods taken to test for various things and they will ring me with the results of those tomorrow. Dependent on results I'll also be sent for an ultrasound to check for ovarian cysts etc.

    Yesterday was a NSD. Today DH and I went out for lunch :o.

    Thank you both Xx

    Missed a call from Nurse Practitioner tonight while I was weighing everyone in at chub club :mad:. She left a voicemail saying there was nothing 'hugely significant' in my bloods but there was something she wanted to discuss with me. Alas I listened to her message precisely 2 minutes after the surgery closed so will ring tomorrow.

    I gained 10lbs tonight *faints*. Don't know what's going on :(.

    On a brighter note, I got an email to say I've won another competition and to look out for my prize bundle arriving :j. From what I can gather it's cr@yola stuff and toys :D. Can't wait to see what it is!

    DH has been quite miserable today. He increased his meds again last week but thus far we haven't had any rage like last time. However, he's been waking up drenched in sweat through the night again, as if he's had a seizure or a nightmare, but we don't think he's had either. It's getting him down and he's extra tired. Hopefully tonight will be better and I won't be washing sheets again tomorrow.

    Hi lucky sorry about the weight - sometimes I think its best not to weigh yourself every week! I had a week like that and then lost the same the following... you have done so well don't let it stop you.

    Congrats on winning sounds like a really lovely prize.

    fingers crossed for when you speak to the surgery and hope that DH has a better night tonight. xx

    Well done on winning the Crayola things. Commisrations on your weight gain. Maybe heavier clothes now that it is cold have added to your weight. A heavy pair of jeans can weigh 5lbs.

    I hope all goes well with your phone call to the surgery.
