Bad Times!

It's not been a great week this week.

I've done no exercise and my eating has been all off. It's not that I've been eating rubbish, well I have, but I haven't been eating enough. I seem to have lost my appetite this week and when I do eat, it's because I know I should not because I want to. That results in me just grabbing a bag of crisps for ease

All the other times that I've dieted, I would give up at this point. In my head, I would be telling myself that there's no point of carrying on 'cause I've messed up this week. Not this time though. When I weigh in on Sunday, I'll take the weight gain on the chin and get back on the wagon next week. I'm not going to spend the next 2 days eating crap but I really don't have time to exercise this weekend so I can't right the wrongs of this week.

I was watching a programme last night called Junk Food Mums or something like that and there was a lady on it who was 37 stone (I think). She claimed to be happy and healthy at her weight but when she was confronted about it, she got quite defensive, claiming that no one understood her and she got really quite upset. I felt really sorry for her 'cause every time I've dieted before, I've said the same stuff. It's easier to cry and make people uncomfortable than admit the truth. She was getting married, I can't remember if it was this last year or this year but good luck to her. She said she was dieting and I hope she was successful and either had or is planning a lovely wedding day.

Anyway I suppose the moral of my story is I'm not giving up this time. Back on it like a car bonnet!! :-)

Good news!!!!

I'm not sure how to start this post.  It's been so full on with placement at the moment and I've got one more essay due for Uni. I only have 9 weeks left until I'm fully qualified. I starte d to apply for jobs a few weeks ago and got called for an interview in the hospital that I currently work in but unfortunately I didn't get it. On Saturday just passed, I went down to Manchester for an interview. I wasn't sure how the interview had gone, it was so intense. I became really aware during the interview that I was speaking very quickly in my Scottish accent and I started to concentrate on slowing down my speech. I came out of it convinced that I had done ok but not well enough to actually get the job. But all the interviews are good practice. They said they would let me know by Friday so I just put it out of my mind. However, I got a call yesterday from them......................and I GOT THE JOB!!!!! It's full time and permanent. I can't believe it,...

Devastated!!

When I wrote my last blog, I knew that I had some huge news although I didn't think I would be telling our news this early or that this is how it would end. I'm writing about this because I promised this blog would be honest and the last few weeks have had a huge impact on me as an individual and Matt & I as a couple. I discovered at the end of June that I was pregnant. I was so excited and could not believe it. With my PCOS I had given up any hope of falling pregnant naturally. I was over the moon. Unfortunately at 5 weeks I started to bleed. A week later, I had a scan but they couldn't tell me whether the pregnancy was viable anymore so I've had to wait another week. Today it was confirmed that I have lost the baby. The last 2 weeks have been some of the worst I've ever had. I've only been able to fall asleep by imagining that we were told the baby was still growing. But when I wake up it's like a jolt back to reality when I realise that that's...

Willpower

I've never considered myself one of these lucky people who have a load of willpower. In fact I would say I'm exactly the opposite but I've set myself a wee challenge to test what little willpower I have. In my handbag are 3 chocolate sweets that I got off my granny ages ago. They've just sat in the bottom of my bag and I had totally forgotten about them. During a wee craving for sugar this week, I found them and really felt like I needed them. BUT I didn't have them. So they've become sort of like a reminder that I don't need any crappy food. I watched One Born Every Minute this week and there was a woman on it who suffered from the same thing I do, PCOS. She made a good point as well. PCOS is affected by weight and to have a baby she was told that she had to lose it. She would starting weighing up junk food with a baby. Now I know that Matt and I aren't at the baby making phase yet but ultimately if I want to have a family I need to get rid of my ex...
