I am SO sorry I have been so rubbish at posting.

I must try harder!! I must try harder!! I must try harder!! I must try harder!! I must try harder!! I must try harder!!

OK, so I'm down a pound this week which is good. I'm aiming for it to be more when I get on the scales this week though. Just for ease, weigh day has changed to Tuesday as that is when my first group will be.

So this Tuesday will be my first group and I must say I'm kind of regretting my descision. I haven't had nearly the amount of support that I should have. The story about me won't be going in the paper as my manager hasn't been as forceful as she should have been. Instead, another consultant has a story going in about one of her members, which I'm really annoyed about as it should be new consultants are a priority.

Also, I should be aiming to get 25 new members in to make my earnings worthwhile. Somehow I don't see that coming. New members from last week count as well to which there were 4, and I have had one phonecall from another woman who will come this week. Where I'm going to get another 20 from, I don't know.

I'm also still not well. I've been ill for 4 weeks now. At first it was like a cold type thing, but now it's on my chest and it's really affected my asthma. I saw the doctor two weeks ago who gave me a different type of inhaler. She said to try it for a few weeks, and if it didn't work to go back and see her. So I went back on Thursday and she told me to make an appointment with the asthma nurse. That was it. Why didn't she just say on my first appointment that if I wasn't any better to go and see the asthma nurse and save us both time?

Also (getting a bit personal here), I came off the pill in Feb. Hubby and I are going to start TTC (trying to conceive) in July, but before that, I wanted my body to regulate itself. So I had my normal withdrawl bleed when I stopped taking my pill, and I've had nothing since. It's now been 43 days. I'm not pregnant, I've done a test and we've b een using extra precautions, and will continue to do so until July. I mentioned this to the doc and she just said that was normal. Doesn't make me feel any better though.

So that's what's going on with me. How are you guys doing? xx

Hello

Sorry to hear you've been having a tough time - there seems to be a lot of it about at the moment!  Try not to stress about waiting for your body to settle down, stress certainly doesn't help (doesn't stop you doing it though, I know!).

glad your back!

i hope you have a great first class! i'm sorry you haven't had the support that you should have - i know that makes things tough... but you can do it!

get some time to relax - that should help with a lot of things!

Good luck

With your first class - hope it goes well!

And well done on the weight loss!

CHIN UP!

You seem to have lots going on at the minute.  Hopefully you will get a big surprise by the number of people at your class.  I know you have put the effort in so hopefully word will get around and the numbers will increase.  Shame about the paper though that sure would have helped.

Congratulations on deciding to try for a baby.  I bet you are both excited and will enjoy the trying part.  It is a big decision and am sure you have thought about it long and hard.  I think you know if you were meant to be a mum or not - it is either in you or isn't.  For me I am afraid it isn't.  I think I am too selfish to be honest.

Hope you are feeling a lot better very soon.  I guess your body is just getting back to normal now you have come off the  pill so I wouldn't worry too much.  Good idea to get it checked out though.

Hope you have a good day.

JOY
