MrsV's diary

[Loopeylou]

Glad they've changed your pill, it does make alot of sense. Something that worked for your body prior to losing all this weight isn't necessarily going to work as effectively now. I really hope you see some improvement and maybe it will help balance your body and improve the tiredness too

Morning mrs V. Hope last night wasn't too bad for you hun. xx

 

[Mrs V]

Thanks both!
I went for a blood test this morning to rule out anything else that could be making me tired. There is diabetes in the family too, so just checking everything is ok.
I had another gain this week of 1.5lbs, but again after the weekend wedding that I had, Im pleased that it wasnt more! So 3.5lbs in 2 weeks is ok with me! Just have to get that back off now and I know it will come off eventually.
Work has certainly kept me busy, so this is the first food diary I have posted in a long time!

Well, last night managed to loose 4lbs on a * week!!! Thats the 3.5 lbs gained over the last 2 weeks plus 0.5lbs extra...I cant believe it!!
My Consultant has also given me an invitation to learn more about becoming a Consultant myself, as its something that I have wanted to do for years. Im attending a meeting on Sunday to hear moer about it. It was the cost of buying into the franchise that stopped me the last time, but apparantly there are some other options available this time around...I hope so!

Wow, what a fab result Mrs V!! And good luck at the opportunities thing, hope you get all the info you need.

What is the mask your hubby wears? Is it to stop him snoring or to muffle the noise? I'm intregued!

 

[Mrs V]

Lol Jaylou, its called a CPAP (sp?) mask, that is designe to blow air into the nose and throat to open the airways. When its fitted correctly, I cant hear a thing and its great..he doesnt sleep that well though as the air is forced through the mask.

Well my Boss has once again prooved how much of an ar*e he is. The mood in the office has dropped so low that the office is not a nice place to be again. Im so pleased that my hours are going to be reduced, otherwise he would be another one on my hitlist!

:sigh: Hi all.

I am feeling really low again at the moment and just cannot be bothered to be upbeat about anything. :cry:
I havent had a weekend really, as I worked most of it and it got to the stage where I ended up having to go to bed yesterday afternoon as I was ill.
My boss is a complete nasty piece of work and is making everyone's life hell and the mood here is just awful.
To top it all off, although Im working all the hours that there are in a day, Im just not making any money and SW is becoming too expensive for me. I am trying to reduce my spend each week and this week I have just £30 for a family of 3 to get for...should be a challenge if nothing else.

[Loopeylou]

Why oh why do some bosses have to be like that! don't they realise they get more from their staff if they encourage and motivate!
Things are sounding pretty tough at the moment for you hunny, stay strong and concentrate on the things you can control which is staying focused on being 100% SW.....take the £30 food challenge by the short and curlies and I look forward to seeing some great new budget buys from you
hugs to you (((()))))

[Mrs V]

Claire, thank you for your kind words. I am tryig to rep you, but I have to spread the love first!
Well I managed to get the food shopping done with £2.00 to spare!!
Even Hubby cant believe it, it was just the fresh fruits and veg that we really needed, as there are things in the cupboard and freezer that can be eaten up as well.
The situation here with my Boss is no good at all. The staff are on about holding a meeting to approach Head Office to complain as we all feel the same way about this man. I dont know if it will make any difference, as they love him. One of my colleagues has already been branded a trouble maker as he has already approached HQ....so not sure.

Weigh in tonight..I hope the scales are kind to me again, as Im not sure how I will cope if they arent!
