139 days to go......

Well I put on 3lbs this week but I'm not too upset about it. It's not great obviously but I had a brilliant night on Friday, drunk too much and ate rubbish on the Saturday so 3lbs is letting me off lightly!

I've been working a lot lately so haven't been able to go to the gym. I can't believe how much I miss it!! I never ever thought that would be me. Hopefully I can get back into it this week before I go on placement next week. I'm on a Monday-Friday placement and should finish no later than 6pm so should be able to get back into it.

I need to get my motivation back for it so I'm trying to think lots about my birthday night out. Club is booked with exclusive use for the first 2 hours, hairdresser, make up and nails are all booked. Invites are done as well!!

So I've started looking at dresses. I'm hoping that I will have lost another couple of stone by then so should be a more 'normal' size. I still have this fear of the scales as well. I get on the same scales every week and apart from the odd week my weight loss has reflected the effort that I've put in. BUT I'm terrified that when I get on any other scales all this weight that I've lost will have been in my head! It's stupid and irrational but I can't believe that I've lost the weight that I have done. Anyway back to dresses, I've seen a few that I like. These are just 2 of them (I can't work out how to copy from the Dotty P's website!). Feel free to let me know what you think of any of them................

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...
