[Mirjam]

Thanks guys! WI was this morning Trudy but had a bad migraine and made a wrong move and pulled a muscle in my back so I've been laying flat on my back in bed will skip this week unless I feel fine tomorrow so that I can go tomorrow, otherwise it'll be next week x

 

[CHRISR]

hows your back? - hope its OK for the new job start x

 

[CHRISR]

hows the job? Got to be better than the last one x

 

[Mirjam]

Hi Chris, back's fine again Don't start my week until coming Monday, to or row I have to do a drugs and breathalyser test. will pass for sure as I don't drink during the week and will take my meds with me so that they will know what I take.

Have been for my second run outside today, it was quite windy but am pleased I managed to do my 2x 12 mins

got weighed yesterday and only lost 1/2 lb after STS last week so that's a bit disappointing but this morning the scales showed some more loss.

not much to tell, am enjoying my last few days off and the weather is nice so it's great to be outside! Xx

 

[CHRISR]

Hi Mirjam great to hear you are OK - I cant remember seeing daylight today been so busy at work, Ive only just got in so a very long day x

 

[trudyc]

Mirjam, a loss is a loss and you have had a lot on your plate recently. Also you are getting fitter so you might be putting muscle weight on! SW is a great diet as it mirrors 'normal' eating so although losses may be slow I kinda feel its a plan that is good for long term. Hope you enjoy your last week of relaxing before your new job - soooo exciting - glad your back is better .x

 

[CHRISR]

start new job tomorrow? let us know how you get on please

 

[Mirjam]

Hi gals, here's a quick update! Have started my new job on Monday and so far, I'm really liking it. It's only 5 mins away by car so I can lie in a bit longer in the morning
Haven't met the boss yet but did speak to him on the phone yesterday and he sounds nice.
Weight wise I'm a bit sts, might be due to the running and this week gained as it's totm. Only lost 4lbs so far but hey, it's still a weight loss right?
Yesterday I went for a run after work and I managed to run 5.13K in 40.41:77 although this included 3 one-minute walks as the area I'm running is quity hilly. Not bad though er, for a first complete 5K run Today, I am so sore, I never thought that my delicate derriere could hurt THIS much! I feel my shins, hamstrings and glutus maximus and I walk like an old lady but at least I'm still burning the calories
No running today, tomorrow or Friday as I've got quite a busy week. Tomorrow I'm going to a bead cluster course and Friday I'm hosting a Temple Spa skin class. First run will be Saturday which is good as I've got a migraine atm so will go straight to bed after work
How's everyone going? x

 

[trudyc]

Yay glad your okay Mirjam, was worried about you as not heard from you for a while. Glad the new job is working out okay. Fantastic achievement with your running - what a buzz - well done. The weight loss doesn't matter - you are not putting on weight which is grand and a 4lb loss on SW is great. Your running will be building muscle and as we said before SW is a great plan for life. Lastly if your feeling good then that is a huge plus in my book. Hope your headache goes away!!!

Hi Mirjam good to see you are OK and job going well ............. our lovely Tour Manager Joseph was Dutch I asked him how to pronounce your name - I now know j is said with a k sound x

 

[Mirjam]

Hi Chris, glad to see you've had such a great time in Holland, I hope I am so lucky with the weather like you have been! Had a bad week food wise last week and gained weight but I don't care, will be doing lots of running this week and plan to do my 5K every day next week when in Holland. It'll be easier there as there's no hills lol.

Had my first skin care class last Friday and managed to sell skin products for a whopping £632! that's £150 going straight into my pocket so not bad for a couple of hours work! The last guest didn't leave until 4pm though and I felt real rough on Saturday but that past quite quick.

Have been really lucky this month with the migraines, normally the last forever but now I've only had to take 2 migraine pills instead of the millions (I know, am exaggerating a little bit lol) I usually have to take.

Re my name, your tour manager wasn't right, you pronounce it Miriam x
