Spent a couple of hours this afternoon going through one of my wardrobes, trying on stuff, and separating clothes that were too big Have 2 nice big piles of stuff to try and sell on ebay. Took pictures of everything and made notes on each one so when the next free listing day comes up I'll give it a go. Felt really good to do that, although it was quite sad realising that some of my really nice tops I wouldn't be wearing again
Got a diff pair of size 14 jeans from the catalogue today and I think I'll be keeping those ones instead of the others. They're a little too tight to wear right now (muffin top, eeeek!) but probably not very far away. Also tried on one of my Threadless t-shirts (bought a few too small so I could slim into them) and it almost fits
Anyway, enough rambling...
Green Day
Lunch: 1 Weetabix and 1 choc Weetabix (HexB1 + 1), 1tsp of golden syrup (1), banana, and skimmed milk (all milk HexA1)
Strawberries and an Activia fat free.
Tea: Mushy pea curry 1 syn for tikka paste used.
1 mini samosa and a mini bhaji (5.5) Sharwoods mini pashwari naan (6.5 going by cals) and 1tbsp of mango chutney (2)
Chocolate!! 25g of Green & Black's Maya Gold and 25g mint (13)
Drinks: Coffee. Squash. Diet Coke.
Syns used: 30
Syns left: -0.5 oops

It was quite liberating and felt good! But I am worrying about how little money I have and the need for new clothes. I'm sure it will be fine, just wibbling a bit.
What did you do with your old clothes? Some of mine have never been worn or only worn a couple of times-most of them Simply Be and Principles. Do you think ebay is worth a try?

Omg!! I saw a job ad on directgov yesterday but it had been advertised since the beginning of the month so I didn't bother phoning. But I did send them my CV and cover letter last night....I got a voicemail off them today I was in theatre till just before two and had to zoom off coz I was late for meeting Mum. But on the way out I told the receptionist that I had 2 missed calls from this practice (happens to be my vets old practice!) and she said it was odd coz they had phoned 5 times trying to get hold of the head nurse while we'd been downstairs!!
So I checked my voicemail and then called them back. They want me to go in tomorrow morning Can't believe it!! The job that's advertised was for full time, which I dont want, but my letter clearly states I only want around 20hrs a week. So yeah, fingers, toes, and everythings crossed!!

Fab news kelly, good luck with your interview / meeting this morning, I'm keeping my fingers crossed for you...

Thanks guys!! I know you can never really tell, but I think it went well. I was interviewed by the practice manager, head nurse, and a little bouncy jack russel
They were impressed with my experience, current and past, and that I'm doing a degree with the OU. I was honest about being out of work for so long, didn't go into details just said through ill health. Also explained that nursing my Dad and his death put me back-as you would. And I was honest about why I didn't want full time-which they said they were pleased about. No point messing them round!!
The nurse said that if I didn't get the position she would be more than happy to offer me some experience there too-which could be good. But it did all seem really positive. So everything crossed!!! Eeeeeeek

Dinks: Coffee (milk HexA) Squash. Coke Zero.
