Oh my goodness, what a week

It's been some week this week. I was off sick from Uni on Monday and just haven't been able to go to Commando training. I've also eaten crap all week!!! Bad times


On the plus side, I'm feeling much better and went out for lunch with my friend and her baby today and had a lovely girlie catch up. Her baby is totally gorgeous and such a happy wee thing so it was really great getting a wee cuddle or two from him.


We went for a wander round the shops after lunch and happened to take a wander into New Look. I saw this dress that I really liked but it's fitted and those type of dresses never really fit. It was also in the 'normal' sized section of the shop so I fully expected it not to fit. But I went to try it  on to see how far I have to go before I fit into them. And guess what......... it fitted me!!! No pulling over the bust, no holding in the gut, it just fitted!!!


I also booked in to get my first spray tan for my birthday which I'm nervous about. I'm getting it done by the friend of a friend so at least I know I can trust the girl.


So the plan for the rest of this week and next is to get back to Commando training. I'm going to go back on Saturday and that will kick start next week. I only have 7 sessions before my birthday so want to get as much weight off as possible and only 3 more on top of that before we go out the weekend after that. 


Lots of Uni work is also the plan for next week so will be quite full on and I may not post as much as normal

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...
