Bobby Dazzler

Wow, it’s still early on a Monday and I’m already having what I like to call “A Bobby Dazzler”, which, for all you lot, is a great day. The first thing to note is that I have now completed my first week on ProPoints, which is the new Weight Watchers Innovation and I am happy to report I have lost 3.6lbs. So without revealing my actual weight, I now have 31.9lbs until I get to my eventual goal weight, and 6.4lbs until I get to my 5% weight loss goal. So I am going to give myself a MASSIVE HIGH FIVE!!! Loving ProPoints, it didn’t seem too difficult and I don’t remember being hungry once…. as usual, it’s all about being prepared.

On a slightly more technical note, if you had tried to access this blog last night (14/11/2010) or this morning, it would have been well and truly broken. I tried to install the latest version of WordPress (which is the system on which this blogs runs), and I managed to break the back end – which is the dashboard/place that I access to upload content :-( Then this morning in my efforts to fix the back end, I broke the front end – which is the bit the public sees… and so it was broken…..

Now one of the things that Moochy and I always joke about, is that I am a “part qualified geek”. He is fully qualified as he designs and maintains databases for a living and I, as an ex IT Tutor who’s expertise is around Microsoft office, am very obviously (according to him) not the full geek :-)

However, even though it took me nearly an hour and half, I DID manage to fix my blog and this is the reason you are reading this very passage right now! I felt like running around the office with my t-shirt on my head I was SO chuffed…. Moochy said that he was officially redundant, but we all know I still need him for the hoovering and heavy lifting (Love you really).

So whatever else happens, I am safe in the knowledge and that I am 3.6lbs lighter today and I have experienced a technical triumph!!!

Trafford Centre Victory

image1148320041.jpgWhat a great day so far! Moochy and I were at the hellish Trafford Centre by 9:20 for a touch of of shopping and shock horror, the car park was 95% empty!!! So with a co-ordinated effort and a list, we were done by 10:26 :-)

I bloody hate the Trafford Centre, I find it stuffy, hard to navigate and generally filled with about 2,000 too many people ! So to have a good experience is a slam dunk :-)

Other good news is that after tweeting this message to Weight Watchers:

Evening @ww_uk, is it true that there is going to be an iPhone app sometime soon? Ww msg boards are saying yes.. It is true? #excited

I got the following reply from @ThePattzBone who is a WW leader:

@gillibobs29 #ProPoints iPhone app coming soon – I think they’re releasing it in December, all being well!

Which is brilliant news, since they have switched to Pro Points, I can’t access the WW site at all on my iphone because of the flash element. So.. the app for me is welcome & needed :-)

Tonight means footy, strictly, boxing & UFC! That is unless I fall asleep.. OH before I go, I must share that today’s exercise has been a 30 minute miCoach session and a 40 minute dog walk *does a victory dance* xx
