Starting my slim and save journey 1st jan 2014 if the pack arrives by then...

[Aaleigha]

have you tried sparkling water instead of plain water - the bubbles help to sooth the throat and somehow sparking water seems so much more of a treat - I can get through LITRES of the stuff and I have some tea and coffee during the day which not including my shakes must equate to approx 4 litres a day - my soda stream was in the back of he cupboard = it is now one of my favourite kitchen gadgets

 

[pripri121]

I have got some sparkling water somewhere mite make some bonanfee cookies with the sparklin water n try n get tht down me....i js reli wna see ten stone now urgh soo frustrating lool xx

 

[pripri121]

Is sparklin water the same as coke zero? Coz i dny lose when i have coke zero thats u cnt have it so was thinkin is sparkling water the same? X

No sparkling water is just water. Have a good day and hope you are feeling bit better.

Big ((((hugs)))! I do hope you are feeling a tad better. You're mum probably didn't realise who unwell you are and I am sure that by now having seen you unable to leave your room and in bed she will know you are really unwell. I confess I can be quite unsympathetic to my boys when they are unwell and matter of fact (then I feel guilty when i realise they were trying it on!) so don't take her reaction to heart.

Great that the scale is 10.4. If you stick with it I am sure by Wednesday you will have broken the 10st barrier, so dig deep and stick with it if you can. It is harder when one is unwell and it's hard enough as we know. x

You know you will end up the best of buddies with her one day. I was the same with my mum and I talk to her nearly every day and see more of her these days than I ever did but she was how you describe your mum. Always nagging, I was never good at this or that or did anything well etc not until I was in my 30's!! We have been very close since. I think being the eldest can be tough at times.

Keep going, remember your aunt noticed you had lost weight imagine what she will think in a few weeks time at the wedding! She will think you are disappearing!

Priya 10.3 is fantastic! Now focus and just stick to SnS and the shakes only if you feel it works better for you. However, because you are not feeling well if you do feel appetite coming back make sure you have meal pack or even a bar. It won't stop you losing as you will remain in ketosis and that is was burn the fat faster. I am sooo excited for you. This time next week you will be in the 9's if you keep going as you are. x

 

[pripri121]

Oh kira i reli reli hope soo im so nervous cz nt seen the nines in like a yr n bit lool...have gt some jelly premade if get the munchies bt wll b tryin to push the shakes out as long as possible....its onli cz wen do use a meal pac i sumtimes end up with extra veg lol i.e mushrooms lmaoo xx soo looking forward to the weekend hopin to see a gd one over the weekend too xx

 

[pripri121]

[Aaleigha]

[pripri121]

U can do this if i can do this then ne one can... no need to apologise hun at all i have days like tht as wel so its fine....omg i am soo dopey i did a job application n did the coverinnglettr bt like a numpty sent it with out attachin the cv tho in ma defense i genjinely thtt i had sent it...so the lady emailed me askin ne to email her my cv direct to her which i have done after most sincerely apologising to her oh gosh hope iv nt ruined ma chances completely.... its for a teaching recruitment xonsultant job role...had a call back from q i.t recruitment consiltant company called modis as well he has said he woll let me kno by nx wed if i av been short listed or not...oh gosh jst want something nething tht is recruitment related ao then can get a practical vision as to what its all about....the modis dude did put me on the spot a tad bit i did waffle tho did the modis application just yday n in the confirmation email it said if im auccessfull within three wrkin daya woll b xomtaxted so waant expectina. Cal back the nz day (tdai) me broken voice ill bein put on the spot lol.....i hope dint waffle too much ?? n the teachin one i gt the email askin for ma cv pretty much straight after i had applied so hoping the initial cv dint ruin the first impressions torallly ....bt then im thinkin she mistv liked ma coverin letter to email me and ask for my cv right? Oh i dont know ima stressing now lmaoo im tryin nt to overload with the job appa tryin to do a few per day so then will b more likely to temember the names of the companies if do get a call back lmaoo rather then doin lots in one day n then soundin confused wen do get a callbk tryin to work out wt xompany they ringing frm...ima terrified of coming out of ma comfort zone tbh thinkin mite nt b able to do it bt at the same time i alap get a buzz at the idea of trying sumthing diff finally even tho tis wud b sales/telephone/providin services....if tht makes sense in a warbled manner....ita the q why so u wna wrk in recruitment tht throws me off slightly lmao the other questions such name a time wher u did thia that etc ima ok with bt why do u wna wrk in recruitment tryin to find a answer for tht whivh sounds confident long term etc is difficult to provide wen put on the spot....dnt they realise tht u av to sret sumwher tp get foot in door n hq wil tht b possible if not given the chance grrrr lol xx

Don't stress too much. Once you've got the basics right send more applications and care less about each one - like online dating. If you get too obsessive about one job then it's stops you seeing the others. People forget to send attachments all the time!! You'll hear something soon :cross:
