Well I got the job I interviewed for on Tuesday!!! Over 160 people applied for the job, and even with no direct experience in hotels/resorts he thought I had the best attitude!!!! :)
I know the other day I mentioned I didnt know if this is what I really wanted to do or not, but looking back I think I was just scared of the change. Learning something new and being around new and different people is quite daunting to me these days. I have had a tendancy to do that over the last few years. Sticking to doing the same things as I am too scared of the change. But after that feedback he gave me, I have a new confidence! Of course im still scared and nervous to start, but I will learn it quick enough.
So I start in 2 weeks. Had to tell my work last night but it was a good feeling. No more late night shifts or 4am starts!!
Feeling so good, I may even post a full body shot later today!! haha. (Might have to do Zumba first).

Feeling Great!!
Well I got through the worst of being sick... Im still not 100% but im finally getting a bit better and even managed to do Zumba again today!!
I have been drinking that Sassy Water (I got the recipe off another blog... cant remember who exactly!!). Its awesome!! Ive been drinking at least 2 litres of it per day and have noticed a difference. Plus I actually look forward to drinking it. (For those who dont know, its 2 litres of water with Ginger, Mint leaves, Cucumber and Lemon in it).
I have started sorting through a few of my emotional issues over the past 2 days as well. Mainly being my issues with relationships etc... After speaking to my mum about it I think I know where my problems are coming from. Its still going to be a long time before I can sort it out completely but its a start.
So all is well on my end. Have been sticking to my points perfectly, and eating a lot more veg and fruit. So hopefully Friday will show some result. If not, wont matter too much as im feeling great anyway!!!

My turn to feel blah...
Well the positive vibes couldnt possibly have kept up for 2 whole weeks straight without me having one shitty day in there...
Today is just not going well for me. My car didnt pass its roadworthy, gonna cost me another 400 dollars tomorrow to get it passed... I had a job interview but after speaking to the company dont know if thats the direction I want to go in after all... Im sick as a dog, so didnt zumba... and I tried to bake healthy ww muffins today and they came out absolutely foul!! (Should have known something suspicious was up when I was putting yoghurt in the mixture!!) Ended up 3 points over today, and now im lying in bed with a blocked nose, feeling fat and not looking forward to going back to work tomorrrow...
Haha, but the thing is, I knew if I came on here and let it all out I would feel much better and then be able to get a good nights sleep, feel better tomorrow and the sun will be shining and the birds will be singing and I will be back to my chirpy happy self :)
(Working so far)
I also think ive made a positive move in blogging on here about my bad day, rather than giving up cos it all seems too hard like my past patterns have been.
Much happier now. Off to get the vicks vapour rub, and smother myself in it to the point where my body will have no choice but to get better :)

OMG a Job Interview... !!!
Im scared, nervous and all I could think of was to come on here to write it down and let it out so I can be positive and confident come 2pm!!!
On my first post on this blog I talked about getting into a job I enjoyed, doing something fun and different. Well I got a call this morning, and I have a job interview at 2pm with a big Cairns resort!!
Im so nervous. I used to work in recruitment so im used to being on the other side of the desk doing the interviews, not being the scared little person stumbling on my words on the other side!!
Its been a long time since ive had an interview. I still remember all the right things to say and what not, its just a matter of getting it all out clearly. I dont know what to wear!!! Ohhh man.
This is a big step for me. Getting a good job is one of the things ive been putting off because I didnt have the confidence to go out there and approach companies. Now I have the confidence to approach them, but an interview is a whole other thing!
Fingers crossed xxx

I finally added some photos!
Ok, it took me a lot of convincing, but I think im finally emotionally capable of having my 'fat' photos on here.
I have spent the past 3 years sorting through all of my photos to ensure that no fat photos ever made it onto the net!! Now I have just spent the last hour looking for one of my worst...
For now I have only added some face shots, not full body. But this is mainly due to me deliberately avoiding full body shots over the years. (Pretty sad for a 23 year old). I will endeavour to take some (bites nails thinking about it!!) and get them on here month by month.
Enjoy!!

Here fishy fishy...
What an awesome day!!!
Started early (5am!!!) and we headed up to Lake Tinnaroo. I had all my food packed and loads of water (normally I would be taking a slab of beer with us...)
It was fantastic! I fished for a few hours. Caught 3 fish, but unfortunately none of them were eating size :( we had our picnic by the water and then I layed on the grass and read a book! Such a relaxing fun day!!
Got home all rejuventaed and thought I would do some Zumba! I shaked and shimmied for nearly 2 hours. It is so much fun! Felt like about 30 mins and I reckon I was more exhausted afterwards than a full on session at gym, but it was still fun!
Now im off to curl up in bed and watch some dvds. Doesnt get much better than this :)

Testing Times...
Today was a big test for me!! I was still proud of myself for making it through a night on the town, but then today I had to get through a day long Shopping trip!!!
Normally im not one to go shopping often. I dont have the money, and I dont fit into what I would like to buy... But I was feeling so good I thought bugger it! Ill go.
And again, proud to say - made it through UNDER my points!! That included a food court lunch and dinner at Maccas!! I decided on Boost Juice and a Salad for lunch, (got all points of their nutrition brochures), then for dinner got a seared chicken burger and had it made with no cheese etc and extra lettuce and stuff and got that with a coffee rather than fries and coke! Very proud as I managed to do this while all my friends were getting chinese containers at food court and quarter pounder meals at maccas!
And to top it off, I found 3 dresses that I loved and bought!!!
So theres another test passed... wonder what tomorrow will bring?? Fishing and away from home all day again, but have an esky full of approved food for me so should be ok :)
