Thanks Selina! He won't be earning much more than he is now initially, but there are good prospects for rapid promotion (he's overqualified for the role and it's a big department) AND they're going to sponsor him for permanent residence! That is huge for us - most employers wouldn't bother because we have the right to live and work here indefinitely anyway, but there are a lot of practical advantages to having permanent residency. We could be citizens within two years - we're stoked!    :D

Haven't posted here for a bit. I'm finding my tolerance for fat is steadily increasing, and I no longer need any rice.    :)   I'm also finding that as I'm approaching my healthy size I'm starting to feel hungrier. I think my body realises it doesn't have much excess left to burn. I definitely need three real meals per day now, whereas before a lot of the time I only wanted two plus a snack.

B: cold roast chicken, pear
L: baconx2, eggsx2, pumpkin and parsnip soup, strawberries
S: macadamias, apple
D: large pork chop, mashed swede with butter, sauteed mushrooms, lots of salad with avocado
S: little bit of chicken, orange
