Sunday Summary 004

SS004

I applied for a couple of jobs for the first time ever this week. Considering the current job situation and my absolute lack of experience, I don't hold much hope but I figure the fact that I worked up the courage to finally put myself out there is an achievement nonetheless.

I lost 4lb after my first week of Weight Watchers, not as much as I'd hoped but considering my drinking binge on the Saturday & my excessive eating of granola, I suppose something is better than nothing! Here's to hoping this week goes better...

Although, speaking of excessive amounts of food, I went home this weekend and may have gone a little bit crazy... As much as I love going home & seeing my family, I'm not so sure being at home is good for me. I think the lack of any real responsibility there encourages my lacklustre attitude towards life.

The brief bouts of sun this week have me ridiculously excited for the summer. BBQs, cocktails, the park, the beach, Leeds Festival, France, summer dresses, sunglasses, ice cream... bring it on!

I'm on a self imposed shopping ban until I shift some of these pounds and it is hard! Must resist all of the pretty summer clothes...

  1. Was great seeing you this weekend. Good luck with the job apps, most of the staff in the shops know nothing about the clothes and what is new this season. Fingers crossed if you get an interview they will see your knowledge of their clothes. I am looking forward to finding out which school my son has got into this week and Thursday when Unicef have finished interviewing everyone. Have a great week. Oh congratulations on the weight loss x

  5. Hey! I'm doing weight watchers too, and please don't worry, 4lb is excellent for one week! I mean, the average is around 2lb per week :) So you're doing well :) Also, I find that after about three weeks, sometimes you feel like you have more energy, if that makes sense? Or maybe it's just me! :) Everyone's got their own journey - I've a long way to go but I feel positive already. I joined in October last year and have lost around a stone, so it does take time, go at your own pace!


    I'm looking forward to summer too. A little fed up of being cold and getting colds off people. Bring on the sunshine! xxx

  6. Yay1 well done on your first week weight loss :) I've been going for 4 weeks and lost 11.5 lbs now but I have weigh in tomorrow and I went mental this weekend and had burger and beers with my friends before giong to a gig and just kept on drinking... oopsie!
    The ww magazine is pretty good for recipe ideas and your local library might have cookbooks too. I find the hardest thing for me is getting bored with the food I eat then I stray away from my points

  9. Everyone needs to start somewhere with the job hunting! I did college and went to uni (for about a day?!) and found a lovely job i'm really settled in and had no experience for at all! My sister didn't even finish college and earns shed loads now! So don't feel like you won't get anywhere, cos you will :)

    Congrats on the weight loss too! It feels really good when you start buying clothes a size smaller. I've lost about a stone and a half in 7 weeks, and trust me, my diet was awful before I started slimming world. So if I can do it, anyone can!

    This week I am looking forward to getting my car fixed and looking at new ones!
