Yeap back to work tomorrow after 2 weeks off... and I don't want to go back :( I am not enjoying my job at all these days so am trying to move on but obviously I need a job to go to (at the right salary) before I can leave. I have applied for a role in Masterton over the break - applications close tomorrow so I am guessing I will hear sometime later this week. We have both talked about making the move to over the hill as house prices (to buy or rent) is so much cheaper and my sister and her family are over there as well. Sooooo if I was to get it and they offered me the same money I am on now (not likely but you never know); it would be a decision that we would have to make fairly quickly.
I have had a great 2 weeks off work; and am loving cold meats and salads. And my new all time favourite drink is Schweps Soda Water with a twist of lemon - it is so damn refreshing on these hot days. I have hardly touched any other soft drink at all.
I am still looking forward to going to the Miraculoss info evening on Wednesday - got a call from one of the directors today (missed the call) and she said they are basically full up for the meeting and that she will save me a seat which was really nice. In response to ANON's comment - You may be right I can't answer it to be honest but I am more than confident that they would not be doing anything that would cause damage to people's bodies... I will do a more detailed update on Thursday all going well as once I get home on Wednesday, I will be heading to bed. For those that haven't already googled it - here is the link to their site http://www.miraculoss.co.nz/ so feel free to have a read if you wish to.
Sorry that my updates are pretty slack and boring.... maybe once my weight starts dropping they will become more exciting :)

Well done on the soda - I'm starting to drink more like this too. Soda water is great and if you get a sodaflow (my friend has one) you have endless soda water!
I went to your last post and read the anon comment - yes, low carb and low fat is much harder to do but that is what the Dukan diet is and many people succeed on that but it is not something you can do long term. Even the Dukan diet reintroduces foods. Low carb and higher fat means you replace all the carbs you drop with healthy fats to keep you satiated. I actually find I eat less fat than in my old days because without bread to smother butter or spread on, I just can't eat that much!
I know that what I'm doing is working because I make sure I always have foods I love - even if I have to "remake" them in a lowcarb way. That is how I can keep doing this day in and day out without a problem. You are a smart cook and I know you would be able to remake many of your favourites if that was the path you choose.
Go to this meeting with an open mind and if it is the group situation that you need then do whatever works for you. Just never look at what you are doing as a diet - changes must be forever. Sorry to go on but I'd love to see you succeed :)
Good luck with the job search Chick. Masterton is a nice place... we used to go there now and then when we lived in Palmy.
It can get VERY hot there too!
The Miraculoss group sounds promising, I just hope it doesn't cost you an arm and a leg!
The important thing - is to find something that works for you. I'm sure you will do well:-)
Hi Karen, I am so glad to see you back blogging. I look forward to following your journey this year.
Good luck with the job hunting.
Fingers crossed with the job application Karen, it's hard to embark on changes in your life when you're unhappy at work - lets face it we spend too many hours at work to be unhappy there! Good luck at the information session, I hope it's the answer you're looking for!
