You guys ROCK!! Thanks for your lovely posts. Xx
Back to work today (boo hiss) but also hoping to hear re second interview this week too. Aagh. Really want this!!!!
I am still going to groups but tonight may just do a pop in as there's an MS carers group once a month and I've been invited. I find meeting new people quite daunting (used to be fine when I was younger) outside a work context, that is, but I do think it will be really helpful to share with others who understand!
SB how often do you weigh yourself (if at all?) I find I get v paranoid even though I know quite big fluctuations can be down to glycogen, water retention, dehydration etc. Just don't want to find myself gaining again - but also don't want to spend my life in fear! How did you work out how much you could eat? Trial and error? All tips welcome!

So the first thing one of my colleagues says to me this morning is, "you know that woman who's mum did lighter life I told you about? Well she lost five stones but is back on the plan again as she gained it all back."
AAAAAAAAGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHH :sigh:
How is this, in any possible universe, supposed to be a helpful piece of information?!!

She didn't gain it because of LL, she gained it because she didn't change her eating habits.

Thanks. I only updated it this week so it's new!
Got a potentially stressful day ahead today. I've been leading a big project at work and my boss hasn't wanted to discuss it - been trying to have a meeting re it for about six months now. Anyway HIS boss has forced the issue as he and one of his colleagues are over from the States this week, so the meeting (all two hours of it) is today. Weirdly, I'm really nervous, even though it's my project and I've been wanting to move it forward. Mad!
Then I have some people coming in to look at techie stuff this afternoon - which wouldn't bother me normally, except that I'm not entirely clear what they want, and they are also VIPs. Aagh!
So I will be very glad when I'm on the train home this evening.
No news re a second interview. I'm trying not to be too disappointed - my hubby keeps reminding me it's only been a few days because of the bank holidays - but I was rather hoping to have heard by now. Must not use this as an excuse to fall off the wagon food wise!
