A Healthier Me (Veronique's Diary Part 2)

Hey Veronique - that sucks about the job insecurity - I totally know how that feels. Our company is still in the middle of a re-org and my position hasn't been looked at yet but it's coming up soon. The added stress can be hard when it comes to weight loss but just try dealing with it day by day. I hope you get some good news soon.
Oh and for sure it's ok to drink a bottle of wine every now and then! In fact it's mandatory! Lots of water today!! Take it easy.

I forgot to mention that 2 of the girls that where Icy towards me at work a couple of weeks ago because I had missed work, didn't come in monday. One had a migraine so I have been there I can sympatise....but the other one didn't show up cause she partied too hard on Saturday....and the boss know about it...so hopefully they remember that when they decide if they keep me or her......I still hope that they keep us both but I guess we will see.

That is so funny! I know I would want to treat them the same way they treated me but it would be more fun to be the bigger person and be overly nice - make them feel bad for the way they treated you.
Food is looking good - keep it up!
 
Thank you Lisa!

I know I was tempted to be all bitchy to them but that just isn't me....I am not able to treat people badly....I am an up front type of person!

Today is going ok....I still feel outcast but the other 2 girls that are here are best friend like even outside of work so they have all those inside joke....wich makes me miss my friends even more!



Breakfast
yogourt, strawberri, granola bowl.
coffee

Lunch
Greek Salad

Diner
don't know!
 
Hi Ver!
I've just been reading through people's journals (new here :) ), and I just wanted to tell you that you're doing fantastic, and to stay strong. Work stress is hard, especially when it's compounded with mean people. There's always one or two people in every work place that can ruin your day. I don't understand how adults can act like such immature highschool students.

It's hard, but when stuff like that happens to me, i have to remind myself that I'm a better person, and that the reason they're so mean, is that they're unhappy.

Chin up! And I wish you the best of luck :)

Thank you for stopping by! Thankyou for your complements!
I also wonder how people in workplaces act like 12yrs old....one of the girl is always told that she is sooo young looking and I think half of it is her personality, don't get me wrong I think she is a beautiful and very youthful looking....but the immature side does factor in when people estimat her age.
 
Ok so Tommorow is the last day of my 6 month work probation so I guess that is when I should find out wheather I stay or not....I am really hopping to stay but....I am working on a plan in case I don't....I can receive ei and try to go back too school through them....so I am not gonna get all depressed if I do love my job but if it's not the one for me I can't let that make me binge eat...just can't. It's a job not my life it's not the end of the world.
 
I really believe that everything happens for a reason so if it turns out your done there then something great is around the corner for you! Hang in there Veronique! I hope you have a good day and hear the news you are hoping for. Weigh-in is tomorrow so try not to stress!:seeya:

Still no news.....I guess i will see...but if i do loose this job I hope to get to deal with grown ups. I tired of babysitting !
 
Look for a place with an older workforce - like the railway! Seems like someone is retiring every day around here. I'm by far the youngest at 28.
Glad to hear there is no drama yet today.
 
food today

Breakfast
coffee

Lunch
yogourt, bluberries, strawberries, I am giving the buds a try Lisa!

I skipped breakfast today but I had no time, I was running late and then I just gor frustrated at work I wasn't even hungry for lunch but forced myself to eat!
 
Ok so so far I still got the job!!!! I guess I will see tommorow 100% I will feel better once friday is over...if they are gonna let one go I am guessing they do it on a Friday.

Ok so Gals annyone in the same boat as me, my bra just broke, and I need to buy a new one....problem is I measure 35" where the bra band should be......they don't make bra band 35" so do I go for the next size up or down...none of these choices sound comfy! I want feed back!
 
hmmm! I know you can get these extension that hok into the back of your bar, so that way if you're in between a size, they can extend it and make it fit more comfortable! I've seen them around a few stores, but haven't tried them! But they may be a good option for you!! :)

Good luck tomorrow! I'll keep my fingers crossed that all goes well :)

That's fantastic! You're doing great! 5.8 isn't very far! *happy dance*

It's great that you're feeling motivated! Isn't it strange how different one day can make? I was feeling "ugh" yesterday, and today I'm over the moon!!

I hope you have a fantastic weekend! (And I'm soooo craving a shawarma! Let me know if you find a good recipe as a replacement!!)
