Where to begin... This week I finally gave up the diet officially, however I really stopped around Christmas and then had a few weeks off work where I didn't really do the diet either. I put some weight back on over Christmas and for the last couple of weeks I've been half heartedly following the Optifast diet but I can't continue to eat just veges for dinner. We moved on to having a proper, but trying to be healthy dinner and I was having shakes for breakfast and lunch, or having a salad for lunch. We've now run out of shakes and I'm not going to buy any more. I'm still about 10kg lighter than when I started so that's a win. I can always give the shakes a go another time if I feel the need.

In other news, we've finally got some traction on our house build. After nearly 2 years to the day from when we paid our deposit, we finally got all the approvals done and work can commence on the actual build. In fact, this last week has seen the site cut occur so things are actually happening. Next it's the drainage and then the concrete slab goes down. The slab should be poured late this month or maybe early next month depending on the weather.

My gaming YouTube channel is still slowly growing, I've currently got 100 subscribers and I'm still releasing videos each week. I was actually watching a live stream of another gamer and I mentioned something in the live comments and he knew who I was and said that he loved my videos, that was really cool. My videos only usually get around 200 views at the moment, but it's great to get actual feed back from someone who I was watching myself.

Finally, the work situation is still uncertain. I'm kind of resigned to the fact that I'll be there for another year or two, the world is a changing place and I need the security of the position I'm currently in and the perks that comes with it. I just need to try and keep my head up and not let things out of my control ruin my day. Once we're in the new house and have our finances back in order I can reassess and figure out what direction I want or need to take.

Anyway, good chatting :)
