This summary has been quite delayed but I’ve
been quite preoccupied this week. Apologies for such a long and picture intense post.
Diet & Exercise
This week was the beginning of my Dukan
Diet. Attack phase for 7 days. For more information on how the Attack phase

Not quite the anticipated 2.7 Kg weight loss as per the Dukan calculator but it's still a loss.
Foods eaten throughout he week have mainly
been beef. Here are photos of a few meals eaten.
Work:
Didn’t do too well in this department this
past week at all. Received quite a few disappointing phone calls from the
places that I had interviewed at. I was also brought down slightly by receiving
an email from my current employment stating that I would be terminated because
I had yet to recover from my injury. This didn’t phase me as much as I thought
because I suspected that that would have been the outcome. This did raise my
stress level though because of the negative outcomes of my interviews.
So in a bit of a panic I hit the job sites
with a fury and gained one interview for a part time role. Fingers crossed that
I do get the job.
Love:
Oh what a rollercoaster.
Ended up chatting to the guy I was being
set up with and we exchanged a few emails and photos. Everything was going well
and we decided to go on a date. We had dinner at a Korean place and the
conversation was good. As it is daylight savings here the sun does not set
until at least 8pm, so it was quite bright at 7:30pm so we had a coffee and
chatting some more. We were talking about the nationalities that we had dated
previously and I found out that he had only gone out with Asian and I felt so awkward
as the suburb we had agreed to have dinner was mainly Asian based. I asked him
why he wanted to get to know and said that he was taken my how attractive I
was, which was good enough for me.
As we finished out coffee and didn’t have
anything else to do in that area and I thought we could go for a walk near a
waterfront suburb that looked to the city. We walked around for a bit and then
sat down on a bench where we discussed a few movies that we wanted to see. I
could see that he was trying to lean into me at times but then pulled away. Out
of the blue he blurted out that he had wanted to kiss me ever since we sat down
but each time he tried someone walked past us. I thought that was so cute but
then it kinda made things a bit awkward afterwards as all the sudden no one was
there. Luckily it ended up being a good kiss.
The night kinda ended after that. He
mentioned that he would have to look at getting a car as he wanted to see more
of me and I thought that was a good sign and we had made plans to catch a movie
throughout the week. The next day we didn’t quite text that much. Then Monday
came around and I hadn’t heard from him at all. This really annoyed me and I
felt like I had to chase him. I spoke to some of my friends and they told me
not to message and see if he sends something. By Tuesday, I cracked and I sent
him an email saying hello. After I had received a response, I asked him if he
was still interested in meeting up during the week as I thought he had lost
interest due to the lack of communication. He explained that he was busy at
work and I understand that but it doesn’t take hours to write a text to see how
someone is. Funny enough that day I also received a call from a friend who
works nights and even he was annoyed at this guys behaviour.
This lack of contact had turned me off a
bit and the responses that I was getting was just not good enough and I just
started to care less and thought well if he writes back then good but if it
doesn’t then it’s not skin off my nose. But it must be a really busy week for
him as it’s been a few days since I’ve heard from him lol.
Anyways, I’ve been back on the dating
website chatting to other guys in the mean time and looking for someone else
who is willing to show a bit more interest.
