Morning Priya. Where are you lovely?

 

[pripri121]

Hi Priya Hope the interview went well. And don't beat yourself up about being emotional about the ex. You know it's not right to go back but those pangs stay for a long time. I have been caught by surprise and had the odd tear rolling down my face years after I split up with my ex - and that's the mad skateboarding one too!! It's fine to have moments like that and they get fewer and further between even when you find someone lovely that really deserves you. Hope you are doing OK and still on track.

Well she sed iv gt the skills but atm not got nothing available, but they can possibly put me in temp roles and then if anything recruitment wise does pop up then she can refer me as iv alredy passed first stage, and also transfer me frm the temp role for tge recruitment if successful. However, do i really want to just reky on them as they have just recently recruited for a batch n filled them in.

So i have made other apps for recruitment type roles this mrning as well... And will also chase up hays dumtym nx week for temp roles.... Just that im so fed up of findin non related its hard....how is one ment to gain ne picture of the real world if they r always put in temp roles iof something unrelated, yes recruitment is sales n yes i gave done sales but the point us iv not done sales for a something as specufic as recruitment where other skills r needed alongside communicatinal, eye gor detail etc skills....i even offered to do voluntary bt she advised me there was no nred as i seemed capable n enthusiastic abt the role itself so orobz nt best to offer to do unpaid wrk. She also saud she will let her director n assistant manager who deals with temp toles aware of nt situation and interest.

I am trying reli hard nt tp give up n to stay optimistic. And now that im jobless am clutching at straws. I did like hays as the girl was around my age, is also aware of ny interrst to wrking in london so she has alredy talked to me abt branch trabsfers in future without me even fully enquiring about it.... And i felt comfortable n at ease round her she even apologised for not contacting me sooner. She is frm london n did a transfer frm london yo sheffuekd. She js applied for it for the sake of it n gt it. I am happy for her bt at ge same tym hope sumthing gd apens to me too. There is also the worry that if i am put in a temp unrelated job then they may put me on a bk burner n forget al avt me even wen sumthing does come up internally though she did reassure me?

 

[pripri121]

Have you seen the 30 day abs challenge plastered all over Facebook this week? Fancy adding that to squats too? Hope you're ok, not seen a post from you today x

Which one do u mean cz iv seen a few. Yh dnt mind hun x

Evening Priya. Looking forward to hearing how your interview went. I also need advice on shopping for Indian outfits for a wedding. I was going to Green St in East end of London but my mum is suggesting Leicester. Where would you recommend? I've a handful of sarees but I have worn them to most events and want a kameez and churidar outfit. Also I like to wear the opposite of what everyone wears at Indian weddings and like very plain outfits with only heavy dupatta. I am too fat for the new long length outfits everyone seems to be wearing. Any suggestions?

Lesta is quite gd hun for asian clothes quite bit of a choice tho has gone slightly dwnhill over tym lol byt still wrth checking out that is where i tend to buy my saris etc frm i bet u wud luk amazibg in them new outfits that have come out hun espec cz yr soo tiny saree manir, milans, even some of the smaller shops on melton/belgrave r quutr gd hun ur nt fat i wud do nething to b ur weight atm lol hope thts helped .... Leme kno hun xx

 

[pripri121]

Hey Pri where are you, everything alright? xxx

Hey lou iv js been slightly depressed cz of the interview went well bt they dnt have owt available atm n tht thry will keep detsils to hand ir put me in a temp unrelated role but we all kno wen they say tht they will either forget abt the details or if i am put in a temp role then they will most likely forget ant me dven uf dumt internal does come up if they r recruitibg externally as well then.... Humbug....and jyst been depressed abt ex thats all...js thinking wow im 25 ny fone barely rings, have no social life, no job, no bf, no even potential ppl on the radar lmaoo hw sad am i i mean even uf nothing cumz out of it even dating wydv been fun haha....

[Lou_G]

Oh lovely you do sound down in the dumps it must get to you trying so hard with the jobs and getting nowhere but you're doing all positive things and they're obv all impressed with you so it will happen soon!! Don't give up

Sounds like a busy old summer, I absolutely love Amsterdam especially in summer it's lovely I would happily live there

Money sucks, there is never enough BOOOOOO!

You're doing well sticking to plan in the face of adversity! X

 

[Slim-Kat]

Yay, she's back! Hey Hun good to hear from you, but sorry you're not having such a brilliant time at the moment. But well done you for sticking with the diet, that's huge, loads of other people would use it as an excuse to break the diet. You're doing fab.

Keep chipping away at the job situation, I'm sure there will be something just around the corner. You only need one good lead. You'll find something great soon.

And look at all the things you've got to look forward to. Stop stressing, you'll look great whatever extra you lose between now and then.

You deserve to see nines on Sunday. Only one more morning to resist the scales. I'm glad you're back in time for Sunday! I can't wait.

 

[Slim-Kat]

Hmmm, except from where the stars are it should say *************. Not sure why it's done that, maybe it's against minimins rules

 

[Slim-Kat]

Aggghh!! hope you know what I mean

 

[pripri121]

Do u mean this one hun? Kat? Do u wana start it tdai? Im going to try n fit in jillian 30 day shred level 1 for ten days tdai n on the squat challenge im in day 14 hw abt u? Ny kegs r strting to hurt lol....oh reli hope soo gna b gutted if see the tens on sunday or mondaymtning bt i am literally stiking to shakes for nx few days n water to see if can see a push xx

 

[Slim-Kat]

Yes, looks like one I've seen. Can start today if you like? I'm all for it, I'll happily do anything to reduce my 'mum-tum'! I'm enjoying the squats though, my legs already feel tonnes better, still a way to go mind! Done day 10 this morning. Think I missed a rest day on day 8.

You'll do great. You were at 10.2 days ago, I'm sure you'll see nine something. Got my fingers crossed for you. I'll be more than happy if I lose 2lbs, I'm chasing my next goal every day.

You're really hardcore doing just the shakes. I like a shake for breakfast, and sometimes as a mousse in the evening, but don't think I've ever given 4 a day a go.

Sorry you are feeling so down. Sometimes it's just the way we are and another time the same thing will happen and we'll feel completely differently. Try not to think of everything at once or you will go crazy. Just deal with what you can sort out today and then the rest can follow. If you worry about things you can't control you will just go round and round in your own mind. It doesn't seem fair that you should pay for your sisters if you are not working either. I know it seems like your dad is just being a pain but I imagine he's worried about you - especially when you are doing something that is outside his experience. Better to think that you are a grown up and will pay for the things you want yourself. If he is able to treat you to anything it's a bonus. Might make more sense that way. I know how hard this diet is socially and I'm an old woman who doesn't get out much , but try not to cut yourself off from your friends too - they're a good safety valve.

Hope you are having a better time of it.

Omdz i am fuming abt this, they had initially changed ut to 127 which was reasonable nw theyv put it bk up to 187 even tho aunt has said i onli need to pay 160 bt thts still besides tge point 127 wudv been ideal with spending money to soare nw im bk to being broke ffs n they bioked it without informing us which thrt was reli bad nw tgeyv chnged dates to friday 13th urgh if i get a job before then wtf do i do for fri n monday urghh relii pissed off atm dnt kno wat to dooooo grrrrrrr amsterdm aint cheap :'( cnt believe they so inconsiderate n nt taken others finances unto account fuming hungry bt out of anger more then anything and at the scales for mibing fast enuf.... Strting to get impatiebt onli managed day 14 of squats dint have much luck with the ab challenge or jillian cz have had ppl round out house pretty mych alll bludy day im feeling grumpy pissed offf etc n gta start my essay first thing monday or this weeekdnd urghhgg xx

 

[Slim-Kat]

Don't look at it that way or you won't enjoy it. You're young, you're single, you deserve to have some fun.
Your dad is probably just nervous as this is out of his comfort zone, it doesn't mean he doesn't care, just he's apprehensive about you going so far.
Ok so this is a curve ball and is now a little sooner than you first thought, but it really is something you should be looking forward to. I know you want to be a goal before any of this happens, but life still goes on Hun. And you need to be able to get out there and enjoy it. Or you might miss something!! You might not be at goal on the 13th, but you'll be a step closer. And you'll be a million miles away from where you started.
One more day and I'm sure those scales will bring a smile back onto your face.

 

[pripri121]

Hmmm i dno kat i have a bad feeling abt sunday dont even want to stand on them for fear of me not liking what i see n then spiralling just would like the scales to wrk in me favour bt ima defo strting jillian n ab challenges tmo....determined to b in a better place two weeks frm nw....thank u guys for putting up wit me n supporting me....infact even tempted to wait till tues lol teo more days till weigh in so then least it b nearly half week thru the week then then even if did want to cheat would feel uts pointless lol....hmmmm xx

 

[Slim-Kat]

P . M . A Priya! Positive mental attitude. You'll do it, have faith. You've stuck to plan, so there's no reason you shouldn't have shrugged off those pesky 2 lbs keeping you from seeing nine something.

I did day one of abs yesterday, so day 2 of abs and day 11 of crunches to do today. Don't think I can manage any Jillian as well though, don't think calories will allow me to do that on top. Although I did get my yoga stuff back out last night, mainly because my shoulder has seized up a bit, so I might add a bit of yoga to my routine as I really enjoy it when I get into it.

And you know as well as I do, cheating is pointless! 2 weeks 100% before the hen do, will make another step in the right direction. My friends hen do is the week after yours, so I'm still on a similar schedule. I'm hoping for 9.7 for definite then (depending on what I see on the scales tomorrow and it's still achievable) We can do this!

 

[Kira]

Morning Priya, sweetie you don't have to weigh tomorrow.... You could do another two days or longer even?? Just do what it takes to help you keep going and anything that will curb a blip (like mine )

and definitely you need some PMA or you will just get yourself so down the anger is you will turn to food.... So,not worth it given how far you have come.
