Day 1- first day of 100!

Well, today's the day. I was really worried that I wasn't going to get my doctor's permission to start LL but I needn't have worried, he was really enthusiastic and even asked me to keep him informed of my progress so he could see if it is worth referring patients onto!! Excellent!

As a Christian, I went to church last night- its the first time I have been in AGES! Very weirdly it was a healing service, and I know some people may be sceptical about this, as I was, but I can honestly say that I felt a presence and I felt the urge to ask someone to pray for me about this journey I am about to start. I was worrying about how extreme LL is and concerned that it wouldn't work. The lady who prayed for me asked God that if this is not his plan for me that the doctor should not let me on the programme as a sign that its not what he wants, and that if the doctor approved it that I should go ahead with his blessing. And he did, so I am going ahead feeling totally at peace and happy that I am doing the right thing. To those of you who don't believe in God then this may sound like a load of crap to you, but to me this meant a lot!

Its weird how things in my life get me down, but then all of a sudden good things happen all at once and change me and my life. For example, on Saturday I got the overwhelming urge to go on the Internet and look at diets, and the first thing I found was the CD which led me to the LL plan when I googled it. I felt straight away that LL is for me and will change my life, so I took the first big step and phoned Debbie my LLC, who told me that its really strange I rang cos she has a new group starting today, so I should come along to the introduction tomorrow (ie now yesterday), which I did, and got my GPs approval today. Its like it was a perfectly formed plan that I didn't even know about! AND I have a job interview on Wednesday for when I leave uni in May, and things generally are just looking peachy right now. I just hope I get the job- I have a good feeling about it. Will keep you posted.

Enough for now, I'm just doing this to pass the time til 10am for the meeting as am so excited I needed a distraction. But now its 20 past 9 so not too long to go. I will update you later and let you know how the meeting went, and how I'm getting on with the plan!

See you later :) xx
