Hi Sarah
Some weeks the scales just do not want to move down. I'm sure that they will next week as long as you keep up the sensible eating and exercise.
I hope that you are having a good last day at the old job. I used to love leaving jobs. There is always the anticipation of what will come next.
I didnt know that you had to wear special clogs in theatre. You read the forum and increase the general knowledge. Why clogs?
Take care
Love
Margaret

Im am DETERMIND this week to have a loss i think i will cut an arm off if i have to but there will be an official loss on those slimming world scales (my scales showed a 1lb loss this morning so good for challenge) and also looks good for wednesday
My last day was really good quite quiet so left with good thoughts and no customers shouting that their water pipe has not been connected
I will miss the people but not the job and i have e-mail address's so thats not a problem,
Im getting quite excited and thinking about what to expect on monday it all seems so real now
I think it has something to do with cleaning them and keeping sterilised but bot 100% to be honest but i am sure i will find out why on monday
Hi, Rah!Just dropped by to see how you're doing these days. How exciting about your move to working in the OR ! I work at a hospital and absolutely LOVE my job. It is so interesting! I am guessing you're a nurse...
As for the scales not reflecting much of a loss lately, don't worry about it. If you are following your programme, the weight WILL depart! Sometimes it is just stubborn, is all
Hang in there, and best wishes on your grand new job!

Hi Sarah
I hope that you are having a great week in your new job. It is great that you are finally doing the job that you have been trained to do.
I imagine that you will be finding it tiring. I tended to find that new jobs were until you got into the swing of things.
Did you go to Slimming World last night? Any news from the scales?
I would understand it if you had done a touch of stress-eating as there is always a bit of stress associated with a new job.
I just hope that things are going well for you. Let me know how things are going.
Take care

Hi Sarah
Well done for maintaining the same weight at a stressful time and limiting things to one day of comfort eating. That is an achievement in my book.
I am pleased that you are enjoying your new job and am not surprised that you are finding it tiring. It sounds like you are getting tons of really valuable experience which will help you are your career develops.
I am interested that SW consider beans, strawberries and fish to be special speed foods. I have found fish to be very good for weight loss for me and tend towards having a lot of baked beans. Baked beans are excellent for cholesterol and hubby is genetically prone towards high cholesterol. Are there any other foods that SW recommend?
Good luck with week 2 at the new job. Good luck at the scales for Wednesday.
Take care
