1lb off for me tonight which is 9lbs in 4 weeks!!!!!
I can't believe how fast it's all gone and how well I have done, pretty sure I have never done so well in the past! Bought myself a couple of SW friendly treats haha (also due to PMS) and I am exhausted :/
Actual proper non frozen fruit *mouth open in shock* what a treat ;) another curry with the left over lamb from last night for tea though first!
Can't wait for next month, and all of the times after that!

Guess who has been given her * week of nastiness...
I am quite surprised that as I got it today (I knew there was a reason why I needed to have two lunches) I lost any weight at all yesterday. Although today I drank no water or green tea whatsoever at work (which I do because I don't take lunch breaks and spend all day in front of a computer! And I try to keep refreshed) and spent the day drinking my usual black coffee!
Anyway, not too horrendous, as I am lucky in that I don't crave sweet things, which is why I always have my tsp of honey or choc spread! It stops me wanting that extra bit!
I have a bit of an unusual day tomorrow...

I mentioned a few pages back that my work is a nightmare and that I work in the financial sector. Well, I received an email from a very well thought of company based in Wetherby on an Industrial estate (Wetherby is about 10 miles away but comes under West Yorkshire and is a Leeds postcode) who would like to see me tomorrow at 14:30. I used to work in Wetherby before my current role on a different industrial estate for a commercial and trade company as the technical and spares person (I originally went in as Customer Services Admin straight from a Hospitality Management background and decided that I wanted to take a risk and not play it safe!) which surprised a lot of the engineers I worked with (Gas & Oil industry) as I was, A) 24, and B) Female. I did all sorts and loved it, but there was no progression.
This other company, I have seen them before for 2 previous interviews at the end of March (when I was due to be made redundant from my current post) but they said I was too senior for them, and the job I am going for tomorrow is a managerial one in their head office. I have been put forward for it by the people that have previously interviewed me. I have had to sit some exams for it too.
Bit nervous but looking forward to it, had to lie to my current work as in my contract I cannot take holiday within my first 6 months of working there and I have only been there since January. However I only asked for the afternoon off as I take no breaks and it was granted. Let's see.... (I also have a second interview in Harrogate on Thursday morning scheduled for 9am with a ventilation and electrics company but I don't think I am going to get away with it so I think I'm going to have to cancel due to my work and lack of time off...)

Oh goodness, another essay!

Hello!!
Thank you very much I am also pleased particularly with TOTM as I feel like an elephant :/ which is horrid!!!
Totally exhausted after interview and job is extremely senior which is worrying :/ and would be a £93 a month bus pass and a 40 minute journey there and back plus 20 minute walk everyday...

Lots of thinking to do. I just keep thinking, what if my OH had a seizure..
Anyway, I hope that you're ok and that you've had a good day!

Left my OH to go to Asda and got him to buy me my favourite bitter lemon fizzy NAS drink. Just drank 1 litre of it, and it had sugar in it. God help me :(

It is a very long day so I am thinking that I may not go for it, I need to be able to relax and spend time with my OH and go to the gym too and when I last worked m Wetherby I literally couldn't do anything!

I am glad that you're alright- sounds like a busy day to me!

It is being reasonably kind to me actually, not too horrendous- quite lucky really!!

In regards to this, I swear that my bugger of a boyfriend is trying to wind me up... 250mls of it were drank, not 1l. Not too bad. He laughed until he cried... And only 3 Syns!
Here is a picture to shame him....

Hi Ruth, sounds like a hectic week for you!

In future, unless there is a reason to keep it secret you are entitled to time off for interviews. An employer can't prevent you attending or force you to take it out of holiday entitlement. Although you may have to take it as unpaid leave.

However it's totally possible that you may not want an employer to know you are scouting. You may already know this so I'm sorry if I'm jumping in! As a law teacher I'm quite keen that everyone knows their rights haha!

Considering how busy you have been you are doing amazingly well to keep on top of your food! I'm impressed by your dedication my lovely x
