Will I ever get to Uni?

I am waiting for a VERY important email from Sheffield Hallam. I finshed my access course at Doncaster College, with what I thought was 39 credits. Found out last week I had miss counted, I only had 36. I miss out on my place by 3 credits. My doc has wrote them a letter to see if he can help and my college has wrote stateing I may be dyslexic. I should know by Friday.

Bi-polar wise I am know on 5mg citalopram and 60mg duloxetine. I seem to be stable with a couple of wobbles. I am looking into joining meditation class to see if that helps and joining a support group.

My little one starts school on Wednesday, can not believe he will be five soon.

I have joined Slimming World, to try and control my weight. I have been going since January with a group of friends. so far I have lost 1st 7lb, but it is starting to creep on so I will have to keep a eye on that.

Halloween

Hope everyone had a nice Halloween. I took the little one to a fancy dress party. I think he really enjoyed it I even got dressed up a a cat.

Been feeling very low lately, I think it must be the dark nights drawing in. I had to go to the doctors the other day cause my periods have stopped, I have done a pregnancy test and that was negative. If I miss anymore I will have to have some tests to find out what is going on.

It's is my little ones birthday on Thursday. I can't believe he is four all ready. We are taking him to the theater for the first time. I have also ordered a Gruffalo cake for his birthday.

My weight loss has come to a standstill all I can seem to eat is rubbish.

What a day!

Got my second parking ticket today. I have been parking on a piece of land near college that I thought was private, only to find it is council land. That £35 pound I could have done without paying. My own fault, I walk round in a dais, never even saw the large sign that I parked in front of.

Also got two assignments that I need to do for college. Plus I need to write my personal statement for my University place really worried about doing this, I am do good at selling myself.

Dear Diary

I have always wanted to write a blog, but never thought I had much to say. I now look back at things I have done and think "I could have wrote about that"

Well to set the scene, I am 29, married to Mark we have a little boy who is 4 in November. I have Bi-Polar! which is one reason I am writing a blog. I am very over weight, I weigh about 20st. I really want another baby but I can't do anything till I lose some weight and finish my studies.
I am currently studying to be a social worker, I start Uni September 2011. Plus from today I am on a diet I am aiming to lose 100lb over two years.

Diet- About a year or so ago I did a meal replacement diet that worked really well for me. I am going to try and do it again but this time on my own, not with the help of a group. We are already one hour into day one and all is going well, lol

The main reason I am going on a diet is because I REALLY want another baby. I already have problems with my knees due to my weight, plus I want to by a proud healthy mum to all my children.

Baby- I have been looking into a thing called HypnoBirthing
HypnoBirthing® is a complete birth education programme, that teaches simple but specific self hypnosis, relaxation and breathing techniques for a better birth. Click HERE to see a video

I am thinking of trying it when I do become pregnant. Plus I want to give birth at a birth center not a hospital , but as of yet there isn't one in South Yorkshire. Hopefully they will have one by the time we get pregnant.
