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
What 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
