Down we go!

This week's weight loss news is in... And it's another good week!

2.5lb loss this week takes the total in three weeks to 11lb! Pretty impressive even if I do say so myself! I really need to work hard this week to maintain the loss and if I'm extra good, who knows, I could even break the first stone in just a month!

Am turning into some kind of size 0 supermodel obviously!

In other news, our first new seedlings of the year are poking their heads up - chillies and peppers were planted a week or so ago and we're getting signs of life from them thankfully. We should also be growing cucumbers and goodness knows what else but we need to hope for a slightly less dreary summer, one that encourages us out into the garden to actually cultivate!

Ebay sales continue to go reasonably well... Books, DVD's, photo frames, hand held massager and various other trinkets have all sold well - I'm now onto the big guns! A promotional display for Jacques Villeneuve, a Camera Bag and a glass chess set... Do tell your friends!

Out for a meal on Saturday night to celebrate a number of folk leaving their jobs, me included - this stems back several months to me moving jobs but now includes the pharmacist from my old ward who's also going going gone! We're having Thai food - need to check my weight watchers eating out guide and see what's on the allowed list! It's a shame that so many folk have left the ward. Neurology was a great place to work before it moved hospitals but the transition saw so many good, experienced staff leave that it's been hard to maintain the Charter Mark standards that once were... That and bed pressures of course meaning it's a tough environment to work in. Many staff just don't want to deal with the stress! Kudos to those who stay on and ride the storm... besides, I may yet end up back there so I have to hope that not too many people go...!

Just waiting for this month's Tesco delivery... I'm sure we drive them mad by ordering a months worth of shopping then asking for it to be delivered without carrier bags! It takes longer to unpack this end of course and I'll end up putting everything away but I kinda like stacking the shelves and seeing our diminished supplies re-grow... Besides, there're a lot of low fat treats hopefully on their way by now...! And it sure beats traipsing around the store! Jxx

Ah - but then traipsing round the supermarket is EXCERCISE and burns off calories, which you can then replenish with low fat treats! *evil laughter* Congratulations on the weight loss so far.
