The more the merrier ! Just let us know the aim for January and I will add onto the first post xx on nights so catch up on the other side. Ps I'm only starting today oooooppps xx
 
Thanks :thumbup: I'm aiming for 7lb loss in January.

I'm on nights tonight :thumbdown: What do you all eat on nights? I've been having toast but obviously now I'm back on sw it's more syns than I'm willing to use. I don't fancy a meal or anything even slightly flavoursome at that time in the night.
 
Hey guys, well the year didn't end too well for me as I split up with my fiancé. I ended it but it doesn't make it any easier but I am using it as a springboard to make 2014 all about me and changing me and losing the weight once and for all.

Rejoining class on Wednesday night as working between now and then and still aiming for 7lb off x

Sorry to here that hun, youre right it doesnt make it easier but defo use it as a springboard. Now you can take stock and focus on you xx
 
Well returned home from work, im not on nights after all ive got my weeks somehow mixed up (im sure they have changed them) im actually on a long day tomorrow. not sure how i will sleep tonight now
 
Sorry to hear your news sparkles :( definitely time to focus on you x

Jaxsmummy I hate it when that happens! I went through a phase of photocopying the rota because I sware my manager changed it without telling anyone.

I'm on a long day tomorrow and then nights, hoping it's not too hard to stay on track. Planning on saving syns for chocolate or biscuits during the shift to keep me awake! I find I get pretty bad heartburn on nights so tend to just pick at bits rather than eat full meals but will try my best.

Do any of you have diaries on here? X
 
Happy new year everyone:)

Sparkles, I'm sorry about your breakup but you're definitely right about it being the perfect time to focus on yourself.

Work is rubbish for me at the moment and I'm seriously thinking about quitting and joining an agency. At least I wouldn't have the stress of trying to meet targets etc

I have a food diary which I have been neglecting recently but now I'm on plan again I'll start writing everything down.
 
Well i got weighed at work as i cant make group this week and lost 4lb ! think it just shows how much rubbish i have eaten recently. Im actually going to see how this week goes as i have 2 weeks left on my countdown and if i don ok i wont renew it and go alone eeekk. I generally miss a couple of weeks with shift work and when i do go i often weigh and go. Do you all go to group ???

I feel your pain with your job, im currently waiting for a start date for my new job and its driving me mad, my interview was October! Im also going to join the agency when i leave my current trust so i can return, almost £500 a shift with plenty shifts available id be stupid not to.

No food diary here but im going to start one today that way im accountable even if im not at group.

Have a good week peeps!!!!
 
4lb loss is amazing well done. I'm finally feeling rubbish after a month of plan so I'm determined to have a good week this week.
£500 for a shift is too tempting not to go for. I could work 2-3 shifts a week and be a lot better off as we could manage without childcare too. I only live an hour away from London so I know work would always be available. The only reason I'm sticking this out is because we want another baby and I want maternity pay.
 
Thanks hun, im in the north west so with inner city enhancements it may be more for london. Finally im pleased to say i have my start date !!! today is turning out to be a good day x
 
Yay to getting a start date:) I can't believe it's taken so long. What will you be doing?

Omg, I've just looked at agency wages for London. Nearly £100 per hour at a weekend. After no 3 I think I'd be crazy not to do it.
 
I'm going from a specialist hospital to a district general x
 
Our hospital doesn't use agency, it has a bank but rates of pay are the same as normal and they only pay you as band 5 even if you are a 6 banking on your own ward!

Pleased to report 3.5lb loss this week. In light of a 7lb Christmas gain I think I'd better increase my January goal to 9lb.
