[Kira]

Wow! Only missed a day of posting and so much to catch up on here!

you have to do what is right for you and I'm sure it will work out fine Workwise.

in respect of the lemon detox until Monday.... I would think about that again. If you stick with SnS 100% you will get all the nutrients you need but with a detox of lemon you won't. Also if you out the maple syrup in (if your doing the maple syrup and cayenne and lemon detox) you will get hunger cravings I would have though as you are not detoxing from the sugar. And is it really doable to detox until Monday? Could it trigger a binge or blip?

i know it I'd frustrating, hard, very hard doing vlcd but you've already lost 2 stone. Stick with it and you can finish soon even with the odd fall here and there. X

 

[pripri121]

Hey kira nah it shud b k cz iv done it previously for a longwr period n managed yo maintain bk then as well n this time its for a shorter period of time so shud b kk....its mre of a mental thing for me think its odd loool hob hunting like madnes lol xx

 

[Kira]

Ah! I didn't appreciate the mental aspect of it but that makes sense. I guess it's how I see vlcd itself it is for me a break from from a detox even when at a lower weight I find it can be helpful to maintain.

Have good day.

 

[pripri121]

Yh its weird bt i feel as tho if i tke food out of the equatkon for a day or three then in tht way i can save ma pax unatead of wasting them also and also my tum can feel bit emptier if tht mkes sense....i dno its a odd way n cnt reli xplain it bt i reli wont do it much longer then a minimum....xxx ur doin soo well /) well happy n proud of u woop woop u b in the eights lot quicker then me hehe ? have a gd day hun xxx

Sweetie! How could you possibly offend anyone?! I do confess I don't alway understand some of your posts but I get the gist of them? I find myself having to read a sentence twice and slowly because I don't understand the text/abbreviation speak or whatever it is called! I am sooo not cool! Whatever!

I plan to still be here once I reach my initial goal and definitely for maintaining and probably long term! Whilst I have regained some from my loss last year I haven't regained it all and that is because I've had the support here at Minis in the Silver Section. I see it as moving from one journey to the next. Clin's diary and journey so far has really helped me understand the longer term aspect of weight loss.

I am very impressed at your will power and doing a detox for 3 days. I so wish I could do that!

 

[pripri121]

Oh phew kira nah i js thrt tht mental comment avt maself mite have offended neone ??...n u r so very coool kira lol i knoo clin has helped me so muvh as welll tdai is day 2 of detox nt feelin hungry

[Clinquant]

I did send you an email but I'm out and about last night and tomorrow and choir tonight so won't have much time to look at stuff till the weekend. I think the Employee Relations one could be really stressful as a first introduction to HR - much better to develop that as part of a general role. NHS is not that stable these days - a restructure each time you turn around. I think the recruitment ones are all worth exploring. I wouldn't rule things out too much to start with - you can always say no further down the line if you don't like what you find out.

Also if you just google 'writing a good covering letter' there are loads of great links and example letters to get you started.

 

[Clinquant]

Oh and don't be scared of trusting your own judgement. You are generally on the right track with all these links!!

[Kira]

Great advice from Clin. I would just add be careful not to copy from any one line covering letters and make sure you write them in your own words (but you know that anyway!) Just doing my mother hen telling you the obvious bit! x

 

[Clinquant]

I said exactly the same thing Kira. When her personality and enthusiasm is such a selling point especially for the recruitment jobs then that has to really come across in the letter.

The link was just to the google search so nothing you haven't already found - think it was because it was at work and firefox.

Are you a bit scared having both Kira and I mothering you!?!?
