Queenofscotland are you looking for work?

BitOutOfPractice · 06/03/2017 13:29

Yes pebbles that's brilliant. You've broken your duck now so there'll be no stopping you!

Fingers crossed for good news Lasty. I like calling you Lasty. Reminds me of going to the pub for Lasties

Niki I have a job but planning to move nearer "home", london to the highlands is a long old way!

SpuriouserAndSpuriouser · 06/03/2017 14:02

Today was probably a bad day to attempt a fast, I have a million (ish) deadlines tomorrow so I'm spending the whole day with my head down at my desk mumsnetting working and thinking about how empty my stomach feels. Gah!

Soft for a first run in so long that is really impressive. Let alone at 6:30am, well done!

Last I have my fingers crossed for you!

QuimReaper · 06/03/2017 14:17

Holy Jesus lasty that is a heck of a commute, that must eat up hours and hours of your week! Shock Very best of luck, sounds like you might need to accept that your golden day's doomed go pear-shaped whichever way the chips fall, whether with commiserating or celebrating Grin

pebbles rest assured it's been much longer than 14 months since I went running and there's no way I could manage 2.3 miles with only three short walks. I can't even manage to be vertical at 6:30am, so mad props from me. What is that, about 4km? You'll go from strength to strength now Star

BitOutOfPractice · 06/03/2017 14:22

Ooo I've just tried those whiteorth shots for the first time. Very very nice indeed. Thank you for the tip!

Quim I don't do it every day!!!

By home I mean where I'm from/my mother is. Looking to move to north of England.

ArseyTussle · 06/03/2017 15:51

I'm afraid I lost my grip on the wagon and bounced into Greedyville. Can't stop eating. Argh.

BitOutOfPractice · 06/03/2017 16:07

ARSEY! STOP!

Stop!

Dont throw your new body away.

ArseyTussle · 06/03/2017 17:28

Thanks. Blush This is a danger zone for me, whenever I've lost a significant amount in the past something kicks in and I start thinking I can take my foot off the pedal and have that chocolate bar, or those biscuits etc.

FreeNiki · 06/03/2017 17:32

I had a load of chocolate at the weekend and gained 1lb.

So i do it too.

ponygirlcurtis · 06/03/2017 17:36

Some small treats won't do any damage Arsey but don't self sabotage. You have recognised your pattern so that's a good thing, means you can avoid it taking hold.

lastqueenofscotland · 06/03/2017 17:42

Had some buscuits as am stressed about this job, apparently it's waiting for HR approval, what does that even mean Confused

QuimReaper · 06/03/2017 17:43

Ooooooh I see lasty! I did assume you didn't trek the length of the country and back every day Grin I thought you must be one of those pied-a-terre types.

Arsey NO! A treat is fine but grit those teeth and get through the danger zone! You'll be so proud of yourself if you do!

QuimReaper · 06/03/2017 17:48

I'm sooooo hungry. I've had more than I usually do on a fast day, why must I be so hungry?

FeckinCrutches · 06/03/2017 18:04

I've cracked open the gin Blush

FreeNiki · 06/03/2017 18:24

I want some Gin now

Another hot gym instructor alert!

When i wasnt sure it was my turn or not he signalled not to move by putting his hand on my lower back..... and leaving it there a while. Hmm.

An incentive to go the gym nonetheless.
