oh and can I have your autograph?

hi anne,
i got my interview at 6.45 instead of 6 o clock. jane said she was running late. the photos are now being done tomorrow instead of sunday.
knowing my luck the makeup lady will turn up on sunday!
i forgot to mention the water as well.
pleased you wore trousers, think i will as well.
i just hope that the whole article won,t be pulled to bits from the usual "nutritionists".its too important to me.


christine

guess wot guys they wanna interview me as well eek!! I dont think I know enough to put across to them!! What if they twist what Im saying and I make a muck up wot should I do. I had a bad experience with Take a Break and I am a bit worried they might twist everything

Lynda, any idea when they are coming to interview you? It will be interesting to see the articles when they appear in the paper. Don't panic too much, and remember, you've sworn off the vodka

All i can say hun is RELAX, and enjoy it. (i'm sure Christine and Anne will give you some more advice lol)
I would have thought you will have the same person as Christine.
Does the Sun know you three are members of this brilliant forum??

Take a break stitched you up?????? Wow i always thought of that as a nice magazine, though must admit haven't read it for a few years, used to love doing the puzzles.

I think I will do it i tried calling the number given but no reply so sent an e mail back saying i would. I did an article in take a break or thats life (both sister companys) and honestly i couldnt wait to get the girl out of my house. when the article went to print (meant to be about my gastric bypass!!) it was more about me the food gobling monster, and vanessa feltz, who I hadnt even mentioned during the interview!! looking back I wish I had never done it.

:bhugh i'm sorry lynda

I really don't think you need to worry, from what Anne and Christine have said i'm really sure this is going to be a positive article.
Hope you are going to treat youself to a new oufit and/or hair do!

Lynda,

I'm sure you'll be fine. Christine and Anne will be able to give you an idea of what sort of things they'll be asking you, and will probably suggest things for you to mention that they forgot to. It's a pity that you had a bad experience with Take A Break. These magazines obviously don't think about the effect that taking things out of context can have on people.

yes you are right, oh well it will be nice to get my hair done and a bit of slap applied, eeee just think christine,anne and lynda.Charlies Angels move over cause the Atkins Angels are here!!
God thats a scarey thought I bet the Hells Angels are quaking in their boots!! lol

The Atkins Angels eh? You'd better start perfecting your martial arts for the fight scenes. Hey, instead of using kendo sticks, you could use ketostix.

We're obviously on line at the same time, but I can't remember where the chat room is -

never use the thing!! last time I went on I was left feeling 2's company and 3's a crowd and all that!!

atkins angels?
i like the sound of that.

Hi chrisitine going to work in amo doing overtime cause i am skinty poo!! I left e-mail with sun cause it was a bit late to call last night

Hi Lynda, great to hear that they are going to talk to you to.

When I emailed Jane with my early photo yesterday, after I had spoken to her she said that she was compiling a number of case studies for her editor. It will then be up to her to decide what case studies she wants to run, or how to use extracts from all the articles, so none of us may even get a mention! Aren't I cheerful!

They are interested in how you got into low carbing, any problems you had at at the beginning, your age, wieght loss to date, your general view. I also said about the other positive effects I got that were non weight loss. Want to know how it effects your social life, whether partners are supportive, etc. Are you doing it with a friend, etc. Did not even ask if I read the Sun! I get the fact they are looking for an informative article, whether it will have that slant or not remains to be seen.

Don't forget to mention how important water is. I forgot about all the positive things that I can now do that I could not before.

Enjoy the chat, it won't be that bad!

anne,
thanks for warning me about the makeup girl and the photographer not getting their act together.the photographer was coming today and then the makeup girl phoned to confirm she was coming tomorrow.now, i,ve had to arrange them both to be here in the morning.and to think this might all be for nothing.grrrrrrr.
