I have never been one for daily weighing. Don't have scales cos I know I would get too depressed with the fluctuations. Only get weighed at WW and occasionally the gym half way through the week to see if I'm on track.

Ms GenghisCohen - Well done for sticking to plan. Gutted your trip wasn't great though And you should be so proud of yourself for doing the 5K in the first place. I'm glad it hasn't deterred you from doing another one

Ade - Well done on your loss.

It is freezing here. Pouring down with rain. But I still made it to the gym...for 2 hours even. Zumba class and then yoga. Was only the 2nd time I've done yoga so was a bit hard. Not really a fan of the downward facing dog lol. My muscles do feel better though.

It was my boyfriend and my 2 year anniversary yesterday. We went out for dinner and had a few drinks and then went to a concert. I even managed to stay under my points.
Very happy. He is so perfect also. Got me 2 Pandora charms and champagne. I am a lucky girl.

Hope you all are well and have had a super weekend xx

Ok crazy day today...

Found out that a guy I went to school with took his own life last night which knocked me a lot. He was a really sweet guy but ended up with the wrong crowd and was in prison. I cant believe he is gone. Just thinking about what his family must be going through. Its pretty awful.

So that was a bad start to the day....then I got an A+ for my seminar I did last week so I was feeling pretty good, got a call back for a 2nd interview for a job, feeling even better, went to Zumba, feeling even even better...and then... I got offered a job!! Its at a place called City Chic which is a plus sized fashion store. It is so amazing, actually has styly clothes for big girls. Even when I get to my goal weight I'm still going to be a little curvy so I'm reallllllly excited.

Still feeling a bit gutted about the boy that died. Its really surreal to be honest but other than that feeling pretty good about life.

Weigh in tomorrow, lets hope things get even betterer!! :P

MsGeng - we miss you!
bex - sorry for leaving you hanging. I don't get on much during the weekend. Congrats on your two year anniversary! I'm sorry about your friend Congrats on the job! Sounds like a fun place to work.

So another weekend went by and I didn't track at all. Ugh. I spent a good part of yesterday cooking, so I should be good this week! Still searching for another crock pot recipe. I feel like as good as the last one was, I'm never going to find anything to top it! Have a wonderful day!

Hi Ladies,

So I'm back from Georgia. The second part of the trip was much better than the first, and I'm back to being on speaking terms with most of the friends I was travelling with. I could have done better with the eating for the last couple days, but I also could have done a lot worse considering I was constantly surrounded by free pastry. And the poster presentation went well, although I think my boobs must have shrunk a tiny bit more because my awesome presentation dress, which fit perfectly when I got it, was definitely a little loose up top and I spent most of the afternoon worried that someone important was going to see my bra!

Bex, I'm so sorry to hear about your friend. But, at least there are other good things in your life to cheer you up! The new job sounds awesome, it will be so much fun to help all the curvy ladies find cute flattering things to wear.

Ade, I recently recieved a crock pot and we are going to have to trade recipes. The mom is the queen of cookbooks, so I plan on perusing the crock pot section before I go back to school and will definitely share if I come across something that looks good.

I'm supposed to head up to a friend's beach house for the next couple days but the weather report says nothing but rain, so we'll see what happens... Hope you're all having a great day!

Hey Everyone! I am going to be a little MIA for awhile. I have been distracted with getting everything together for our trip and once we are gone I doubt I will check in much. I found another super cute dress for the rehearsal dinner and picked up some ridiculous heels to go with. I don't know if I will end up wearing it since it's a little racy (very low cut) and the heels are super high patent leather pumps... I don't even know how many inches they are but I would guess 4 or more. I don't know if I have the guts to wear it to a family gathering! LOL
Anyway, I will be in and out for a couple weeks.


Bex- sorry to hear about your friend. Congrats on the new job though! Sounds like a lot of fun. Talk about your highs and lows all in one day. :/

Wow, what a stressful start to the month, Bex. Take a breather when you get a chance, and 'nab a few extra hugs from the boyfriend to lift your spirits!

Not much has changed on my end, just slacking really. Finally in the 20Xs now, so that's a plus.

Night ladies, .

Thanks guys. It was quite an up and down day yesterday thats for sure!!

Just been to weigh in, lost 600grams which is 1.3lbs so pretty happy with that.
Should probably get some uni work done before I start my new job. Crazy times ahead I think!!!

Doin' pretty good to keep the chatter up, it's been just over a week and we're already on page 4, nice!

Well, I'm stuck at work again, when I rather be writing my stories. But I think that is a common feeling, not many people rather be at work than doing their hobbies.

Work is slow today (only been here for 17 minutes too!), and I rather wish I had a pile of papers to enter into the computer than to sit here awkwardly, flip pages looking for meaningless information for my boss and coworkers. It isn't a pleasant feeling, that's f'er sure, when I'm given a task that won't change or effect anything in any way.

*frown*

At least I've got my music (earbud headphones, for the win!).

Well, back to work, Happy Tuesday all!

Morning!
MsGeng - we can trade recipes for sure! I've only made one. And it was high in points. but so good.
Kay - we are going to miss you!
bex - great job on the loss! You seem to be right on track!
zan - congrats on being in the 20Xs! I'm feeling like work is gonna be slow for me too. *sigh*

Nothing new here. I've been really bad about tracking lately. I've been focusing more on eating clean than anything else. But I'm staying in weight watchers because I love the meetings. Have a great day everyone. You all make me smile

Still dragging here.

I was tempted to hide out in the bathroom and dance to a song just to burn some energy.

I am so weird!

Not weird. Just losing your mind due to the daily grind. Long day today. I've got a doctor's appointment today, so I get to leave 30 minutes early. Woot. Kind of.

Made chili. mmm. Sanity partly regained... Ah who am I kiddin'? Muahahahaha!

do you like chili with beans or without?

I always want it with beans, otherwise I imagine that it's just a red pasta sauce with meat, but without the pasta,

--edit---
Hm, I might have to try that with my leftovers, put some over a little pasta. Sounds good actually.

Good. We can remain friends. LOL beans are a must.
