The job interview went well but I think it is a case of hurry up and wait - a lot of people are still on hols and it may take some time. I am also quite expensive and may have to look at lowering my rates.....we will see.

I have lost 1 kilo this week - not bad after a few days in Sydney. I had a few champers and my usual room serivce club sandwhich and chips...but that was it. I didn't drink at every meal - I didn't eat junk at any other meal - I drank water and I even did a run on the treadmill.....very pleased with myself.

I really noticed the exerise speed up the metabolism - we really have to move our butts....eating less just isn't enough!!

Mind you, I was sooooo stressed with the stock market yesterday - has totally wiped out all my profit from last year and I was beginning to lose capital so I was feeling real sick in my stomach!! I just wanted to sell and run like everyone else but it isn't in my game plan........but it was so hard not to. I think the nerves and stress may have contributed to my weight loss as I couldn't even eat properly. I was so miz that I treated myself to a koko black hot chocolate and after half of it wanted to throw up so I dumped it in the bin.......

Today, however, the US market has stabilised, the UK market is up and so hopefully, ours will stabilise and go up today......

Am now going out to do more exercise......
