I've Got My Mind Set On You!

Soooooo...... tonight I applied for Fee-Help for my Uni course and wrote my Entrance Essay to get into the course. So by this time next week I should know if I got in or not! I had to write why I wanted to do the course and what career aspirations I have for the future. I mentioned my blog, my support group and how I had gotten a lot of feedback from people saying how much I have helped them (I squirm writing that because it sounds like I am big noting myself). I said I wanted to be able to give others the tools to change their lives. That I was interested in specialising in assisting in helping others with their weight loss. Also that I want to specialise in working with children with behaviour issues. I do have a lot of experience with that not only with preschool but having a sister who has "issues". So overall I think its ok. As long as I wrote over 150 words the women said I should get in. I wrote about 400.
Gym this morning with my new personal trainer. She was great. I called her a bitch on my facebook status because shes gorgeous, nice, fit and works me HARD. But I know I will love her. Push me and I'll do it. I'm not "Biggest Loser" - "I can't do it" and crumble in a heap. I know I will have super sore arms tomorrow though.... lol.....
Food is ok. I do suffer from heartburn a lot and it PISSES ME OFF. Thats the downfall of the band for me. I will survive. I am thinking that in a month or two I might get a smidge more into my band. I am going to keep track of things and see how I am going. I want to keep on this steady track of losing weight. I refuse to be one of those people that passes the first or second year and then gets into the funk. The funk where they have lost a huge chunk of weight, eating patterns change and the crap creeps in and they settle. I will not settle. I want goal weight. I want it. Bad. I will be a success. I will be the type of bandster that is focused and gets what I want.
Answering your questions.... LBG- Tegan said "omg you're tiny" - that comment will never leave my head...I am kicking myself that I am still a squirmer when I get compliments. I love them but still need to learn how to accept them.
Mel- I am doing the course via correspondence- otherwise I'd have to move to Sydney and I cant afford to do that... oh and my gym is a womens gym..... HAHAHA.....IM SCREWED!
Heres to the new me.... I am so very proud of myself.... I am constantly in awe of this new found power!!

All sounds good. Distance education is challenging but if you've got some self-discipline (like you obviously have got) you'll do great. Heartburn - I'm fine since doc put me on somanc 20mg twice a day.
Cheers, Mel
