The intention was to do a weekly update but things got in the way, I got lazy and also started my extended placement finally, so I think it would be a better idea to do a monthly update instead. In one month I have lost 3.6 lbs! My body fat/fat mass is still very high…

Weight series: A truthful weigh-in
So I have been struggling to lose weight since around 2013, it has generally been my fault that nothing has really changed since then, mainly down to my complete laziness and my immense fear of loose skin – there I’ve said it! On this site, my weight would appear to have fluctuated over the years,…
Not a lot going on
So what I have I been up to…Wallowing, watching CSI, doing assignments and going down the youtube rabbit hole. It’s been 18 ish days since I last posted and not much has changed. I have one assignment due in at the end of June with is nearly finished, I was struggling with the appendix for…
Waiting – how things have changed
Things haven’t gone to plan for my extended placement! 7th April I got the ‘thank you’ email for joining the trust for the extended placement, then a followup email on 9th April with a start date of 16th April for online induction and either 20th or 27th April to start on the wards. I had…
Temporary register update
So things are definitely moving fast. We got sent a form from university to fill out with our preferred placement areas and then we had a group online chat with our uni tutor on Monday. Tuesday I received an email from my local trust asking me to fill out a couple of forms which I…

Life goes on…
Nothing has really changed for me over the last few weeks, I continue to go to placement, work, and try to shop. The only difference is no NASCAR, slot car racing or Micropubs for a few months. I don’t feel anything different, the days don’t feel any different, I just can’t get a delivery in…
As it currently stands…
As it currently stands I am still on placement in Neuro Theaters and loving it. I can cancel the placement if I want to but the uni doesn’t know yet how/when I’ll be able to make up the missed hours & assessments. As I also work as a HCA within the trust I don’t see…

I have been in contact with someone at St Richards…
3rd year placements
I’m not one to just wait around, too many times things haven’t been done when they should and delays have happened. Due to this since December 2019 I have been checking our uni cohort placement spreadsheet to see if it was updated. 13th January, it finally looked like things were happening. There was an extra…
