Hello everyone, I'm back. A lot of familiar names have been good I see, and are still posting and a few have come back with heads hung in shame like me:o. First time round I got down from 11 stone 1 to 10 stone. I know I've put a few pounds on but don't know how much yet until I weight in on...

Just a quickie Gabby to say have a lovely time in ....oh dear, I've forgotten where you're going!!! Ermmmm, oh yes VEGAS. xx

Hi Gemma, don't be hard on yourself, the weight creeps up on us without us realising, especially as you've had 3 children in 4 years plus an older one, so you would have to have been an angel and fitness freak to be your perfect weight. Do as everyone else does and write down your menu on here...

At least you used some AP's with breakfast in bed!!:p xx

Haha, and that's why my youngest still likes to sit on me sometimes (ahhh), so he has my stomach to cushion him. xx

You lucky girl!xx

Aw, thanks Rosie. Yes it is really hard when there's not a major amount to loose which is sooo frustrating, especially when I'm being so good food wise. I just wish I could get myself to enjoy exercise more as I know much of what I need is exercise and toning up. I am the typical pear shape -...

I know it's an odd place, hubby's choice. It is a very big graveyard, in fact biggest in britain I think - woop woop!! It does have little roads all around it so I know it sounds wierd but if you saw it you'd understand!! At least he couldn't run anyone over.... Am going to book some lessons...

OMG - they just got back from driving around the graveyard and they were stopped by big man in big 4x4 taking their photo:eek: Son petrified prob nearly messed himself with trying to drive as well, surprised didn't forget where brake was and knock him down. Hub had big argument and then found...

Its a good place if your watching the points as very low compared to other places and very good price, so more to spend on shopping!!;) I know, I never liked sugar puffs but middle son loves them and thought I'd give them a go and they're yummy. You get the sweet fix for not many points. My...

Sounds like you had a yummy food day today Gabby. Shame about Matty, I'm sure it will work itself out, if its meant to be. Have you got your suitcase packed yet? xx

Hi Tracey, its crazy isn't it that we can't find just a few minutes in the day to post on our and other diaries. Will try to keep up to date though as I'm more aware of my points then. Looking forward to shopping the quays have some lovely shops and yes I will be ripped off, always am:sigh...

Glad your headache has gone. I get migraines and take Imigran (behind the counter medicine) which always works. Glad you had a good day yesterday. Used to love taking our children to the farm. x

Hello everyone! Been absent for a while as felt a bit stressy the last week - don't know why. Am off work this week so hopefully will recharge batteries. Have been lurking, but not posting on any diaries. Only 3 weeks till I go away with friends for long weekend so need to get my head in...

Beautiful dress Hayley. My hub has no idea how much things cost so I always knock a bit off the price when he asks how much things are:eek: What he doesn't know doesn't hurt him!!! He's still living in decimal money times - lol. Bet you can't wait to get it ordered xx

I know mommy, am off next week for half term so lots of reading for him to do next week! xx I know, some people need to get a life. People usually want to chat when they've got dogs not rant and rave:copon:xx Hope tommorro

A really filling sweet burst is a hightlights drink. It give me the choc rush and is only a point xx

But Rach I would always trust you with point counting - I'm hopeless which is why I buy all ww so its counted for me! xx

Joanne's really started us all off with the sit ups. They'll be lots of flat tummys within the minis soon (please, please)!! xx

Ok Gabby, we'll let you try all the potions and just let us know what works:p There's another new tablet they keep advertising on tele which they state could take an extra 50% off your weight loss. It's quite expensive though, and I've read that you sit most of the time sitting on the loo and...

I think you had to be there to appreciate how rude she had been to me about my dog when he was only trotting around as dogs do sussing out the situtation, not even within several metres as he is very shy but just wanting to say hello from a distance!. I can appreciate other people have dogs...

Thanks Rosie - I know, I shall be expecting my dogs to say please and thank you in future. Some folk are strange, especially as no harm was being done. I could understand it if dog was barking or being annoying but he was doing nothing - rant rant.......xx

Haha - thought of you dragging a bag around - at least you won't have to pick up its poops! xx I'm scared of cats and they seem to know that so come to me:eek: xx My tummy's hurting today xx Thank you Fuzzy, just following your good example with exercise. xx Right nothing to say about...

Hi Rosie, hope your son's exams are all going well. My middle son is in the middle of his AS levels as well so a bit stressy! The temptation of pigging out on choc must be hard when it's the home of it! Hope you have a lovely week xx

Hi Joanne, yes my family is a bit of a disaster at the moment! Son's stitches taken out on Friday - cut cleared up really well which is just as well as he's in the middle of his AS exams. Sorry haven't been updating much lately but have been really busy. Am still trying to keep on track...

Hi Joanne, you've pushed me to do sit ups as well! Am doing lots of toning exercises as well as I think that's what I need! Hope you have a good week - is it your half term next week as well? It's ours :clap: xx

Hi, sorry I forgot to post my 2lb loss last week so an extra 2 points. I think I've only missed last week though. Will remember this week as don't want a smack on the wrist from Anna! Good luck everyone else x

Hi Rosie, glad the boys felt their exams went well. x

Hi Sherry, well done on the 1.5lbs. Some people do have problems with their toe nails when running. My friends big toe nails fell off:eek: I keep saying I'm gonna start again, but as everyone else is I think I will give it a go. x

Rosie, please don't think of yourself as useless, you're really not. Your sons may not live with you but how many mums with their sons living with them, mark their maths revision test papers?? I'm sure they know you're supporting them ((big hug x)) Anyway skinny, I'm sure we're all really...

I agree Rosie, you're better to stay at your weight you were originally happy with. If you're comfortable, why keep pushing yourself. x

Hi Gabby - pickies show a brilliant loss. You must be so pleased noticing the difference, well done. How's work going - you not working today? x

Great news about the car, sounds lovely. I think KAs are ideal first cars, nice little ones with lower insurance. Am about to start looking for first one for middle son, but KAs tend to be girlie cars I think. Insurance is massive for him though, even third party. Hope you have lovely time...

Hi Tracey, yes I'm well chuffed about weight shifting at last. Hubby and son on mend. Stitches out tommorrow then he wants to play footie again Saturday:eek: - again, utter madness!! Thanks Rachel - yes I do want to shift some more before I fly off to the sun. Am looking forward to having a...

Thanks Fuzzy, bit of a wet one and am famdabidozi! Can't believe it after all my moaning I've lost 2lbs!!:scale: I have been very good so it's about bloody time. Although my weight hasn't been shifting my shape has changed and slimmed down, so just over half a stone to go which I want gone...

Well done on your 2lb loss. I'd love making wedding invites etc. When I got married you just ordered everything. We've got a big hobbycraft near us and they've got so many lovely things, but I've got nothing to make things for!! Know what you mean about being busy busy x

Hi Gabby - hope your hangover's a bit better. Sorry about Arsenal:D!!! Are you nervous about new job tommorrow. Really hope it goes well and you enjoy it xx

Hello Joanne - How did it go - I take it you're still in the pub celebrating! x

Hi Trudi, thanks for coming in on my post. I agree, Butlins would not normally be my cup of tea or idea of hols, but on footie tour it is great fun. Don't like Pontins though, did it for 3 years in great yarmouth and its not a very clean site, with too much agro. Butlins is much cleaner and...

Good luck Joanne, you must be so excited. I'll be thinking of you at 10 tommorrow - I'm really jealous and wish I could run that far x Anyway, hope you both make in a good time and enjoy it xx:bliss:

Hi Joanne. I think I am eating all my points - just had fish and chips and they were yummy!! You can cut the atmosphere with a knife in the house. I don't want son to play footie tommorrow and hubby does:eek::eek: I'm sorry but is it me, the boys got stitches, can't hardly open his eye, in...

Thanks Fuzzy, his eye is actually shut now but he and hubby still believe he is going to play in his cup final tommorrow - unbelievable!! xx Hi Rach, hoping his scar won't be too bad. It's just above his eyebrows no so bad but he's still a bit gutted. By Monday his eye should be well black...

Hi Gabby - reading about your ear syringing reminded me, last sunday, youngest son claimed his ear was falling out:eek: - went to watch him play footie and were just walking back to the car at end of match when he went into his sock and pulled out a massive lump of wax which he'd kept!! Am...

Was already all over the place dropping sons at parties and footie when I got a phone call from one son to say he had split his head open at footie and blood everywhere so was being taken to casualty:eek: Arrived at A&E and about 3 hours later we came out with the addition of 3 stitches just...

Hi Joanne, are you out training for the 10k?! Hope your friends' going to be ok for the run, it's good to be running with someone x

I know, the nearer you are to your ideal weight, the harder it is to loose it, but I'm sure it will go eventually xx

Hi, I know your computer's still broken, but am posting on everyone elses, so felt guilty not saying hello x

Hi Lou, hope your weeks going ok, you're obviously busy though x

Hi Rach. Saw picture in mag yesterday of Hugh Jackman with his wife, she's about 15 years old than him:eek: and hate to be a ***** but she does look older. Lucky her though, fair play! Hope you get someone to go to star trek, I'm not into those sort of films really. Hope pay day comes soon...

Hi Gabby, well done on 8.5 km that's amazing. Lucky you off to nobu, what lovely brothers you've got taking you out. Make the most of your last work day not working (?) tommorrow before the biggie on monday! x

Hi Twigs, we are in the same boat aren't we! I'm like you as well and fussy about veg. I preach to my kids all the time and give them loads of broccoli etc bt I prefer to have a salad. I have a salad with almost everything I eat. Don't give up girl, we'll crack it! Enjoy your night tonight x

Re wierd christian man - I know, I felt like I should be saying Hi I'm Karen, I'm a weight watcher! Pig out does seem really tempting but I'm still in the being good zone and don't want to fall off it. x Thanks Gemma, I know you've been frustrated before when you've sts for a while. x Thanks...

Thanks for advice Tracey, I'm glad someone else has been in the same boat. I won't give up as I think as I get older (i'm not THAT old!!), it will get harder so need to do it now before I get middle age spread:eek: x Thanks Fuzzy, I am going to make a big effort to drink more water as am doing...

Any ideas pleeeese:confused: I have been good for last 2 weeks, the odd naughtie, but nothing to add major points and am not loosing anything. I am also swimming and have just started jogging again, so am really doing everything except starving myself! I know everyone gets to a level when...

Whooo, Rosie's getting a six pack! Think i'll do some sit ups tonight, i'd like to see a bit of formation on my flabby tum! x

Sorry your computer's broken. You've been doing too much work on it and knackered it!! Glad you had a good hol x

Don't worry Jess. You're stressed at the moment with deadlines at college at the moment so you can't be focussed on everything. Think positively, with summer coming and a new start :) Everyone has tough times when they feel emotional, try making sure you get plenty of sleep and eat well. Then...

Ha ha, think you'd need sparkly goggles as well to set off the whole outfit. We're skint at the moment as loads of bills have all come at the same time:cry: Hope you have a good week Rach x

Sorry about the footie!! Well done on your determination, you'll do it i'm sure x

Hi Anna, glad you had a great weekend x

Don't worry about a sts at least you haven't gained. I've sts for weeks now so know how frustrated you feel. I've been really good and swimming and still not loosing. I am noticing a difference in my shape though. Enjoy your nandos x

Hi Tracey, thanks for finding my post many pages away from page 1! Had a great time at Butlins and wasn't too bad with the food as there is such a good choice. Very busy there as whole place taken over by the footie tournament. Very good friends with the team parents so lots of late nights...

Thank you am going to take the suncream! (will prob rain now). I do like sugar puffs, I just never used to - strange I know, but he ho. x Thank you Gemma, should be a laugh. Sorry I haven't posted on yours for a while, I will find you again! x Right, that's me done until Monday, I've got...

Yes a charmer is right!! He is lovely, well cheeky x With that attitude Jess, you will be a very strict mum!:copon: Cheesecake looked lovely, but unfortunately tasted like solid yoghurt, even son didn't like it. Looked impressive though! I never liked sugar puffs but only 1.5 pts per 30g so...

Hope you're feeling better Anna x

I used to love Wet Wet Wet, and yes swooned also over Marti you lucky girl x

I wouldn't be any good at squash, the ball flies back too quickly. Would be a good idea for you though to join a league x

Hi Jess, I met my hubby at 20 was married at 21 had my first son at 22 (phew). Had 2 more sons with 4 years between each (didn't really fancy lots of little people). I was quite lucky though as hubby bit older than me and he already had bought a house (very shrewd move on my part!) I had...

Well done Sarah, brill re-start for you x

Right, I'm off to buy a stock of raspberries! Good job I love them - thanks for the tip! x p.s. Given the dog tripe again and he's loving it:eek: I'm finding the stink a bit hard to handle though.

Always handy to have a food critic on the meat counter! Hope you get your form filled out tommorrow. You start feeling pleased with yourself as you think you've nearly completed a form and then, as you say, an error comes out and you've wasted loads of time. Hope your weekend is good x

Hello ladies, yes it is a little frantic here at the moment. Good thing is am not going to footie tonight (wouldn't have minded though as lovely weather), hubby will take him. Have got to pick up 13 year old from his date at pictures!! He's a real flirt. My other two are really quiet about...

He's not being mean really. We will do a family do at home for him but your only 18 once and does he want a lot of old codgers dancing round their handbags complaining the music's too loud?? We were all 18 once and I know what he'd rather. He'll enjoy having a family do at home though! Older...

Do you ever stop exercising Lydia??! On another subject, what does your cavie like to eat? Mine is so fussy, he only really likes human food. I try leaving dog food down but it is difficult as have to put him in another room as other dog will eat it. Even tried getting food with a picture...

Hi Gabby - wot a pig for bloke not to have phoned back - his loss. Really hope you get some good news back from 2nd interview you deserve it. Menu sounds lovely today, I could fancy that x

Hi Tracey - going to Bodrum, never been to Turkey before. The one we've got problems with is the one who will be 21. He doesn't want party - been to too many which have ended up in chaos and doesn't want the pressure. He's already going on hols, or would have paid for that so will have to...

Glad she's out of hosp and hope tests all show up ok.

Lovely news about your wedding dress. You'll have lost so much weight in a while hub won't recognise you so you'll have to renew your vows and get a new tiny dress! Hope your mum copes well with the detox. It must have been hard for you all the last few years but hopefully things will get...

Thanks Tracey. Hubby was telling me to have something naughty at Beef on Sat, but I know I wouldn't really have enjoyed it. Fajitas were yummy, a big favourite with all the family. Woke up today and decided I must be nibbling inbetween meals and not counting the points as I'm not loosing any...

You've convinced me, I'm dragging my corrie dvd out again!! Is it the girl from steps one that you talk about. I know she lost loads of weight. Thanks for rep x

Hi Anna, you've done excellent with your loss this week, I'm sooo jealous. I'm not loosing any at the moment so really p****d off. I'm getting my green fingers again at the moment. Been to garden centre again today and come back with more plants!! Get them out the boot and put them by the...

Well done on loosing the 4lbs. Don't blame you wanting to nuckle down on the assignment before bank hols. Nothing worse than knowing you've still got it to do. Hope you have a good week and dont work tooo hard x

Hello all. Lovely day here today. Just got back from youngest son's league cup final. We lost:cry: Have already won the league but shame didn't win this as well. My son badly injured by a dirty player:mad: Times like this you feel like going on the pitch and dragging the little s**** who...

Thank you mommy will have to get some. Was a good night but felt little fragile this morning. White wine doesn't agree with me and i was drinking white wine:copon: I like gin and tonic but if you're buying in a round its quite expensive so feel more comfortable having wine like everyone else...

Well done Gabrielle on keeping 100%. How many points in low fat babybel? I love an apple with lump of cheese as snack so this could be answer to my problems! Will try to find a wholesaler to sell the cellulite cream for my backside!! Have a lovely day watching E4. Am just about to drag...

Hello Karolina! Hope your Friday was good. I like the shopoholic books for an easy holiday read. Lucky you... x

Hi Gabby, does the cellulite cream really work? Lucky you, buying your holiday clothes. Have a lovely weekend x

Thanks Karen. Might try it x

I find dvds harder to get the enthusiasm with as I know I can stop when I'm a bit tired. I wish I could be stricter with myself like you obviously are. I must have a thing about watching corrie people exercise as years ago I got Liz from corrie doing video and then last year I bought Vicky...

Hi fellow cavie owner!! Mine is still being a pain with his diet (doesn't want to eat dog food). Even bought him one with a picture of a cavie on and showed him and still didn't eat it:eek:!! I've done very similar jobs to you. When worked full time I was a PA but had to go to admin when had...

Hello all, just a quickie as only just got back from sons footie training (they have a bar and we quite a few of our friends go there on a friday night, so good night). Am pleased with hair colour but as I said before don't like the blow dry so had to put it up!! Always like washing it the next...

It was!! I'm fussy as well, but have colour in as my hair without it is quite fine and the colour thickens it up. I'm toooo shy to put a pic up!! Might learn how to do as I know its nice to put face to name. Been going to same hairdressers for years so it is relaxing. Bit of a pain though...

I like it as well as son likes it so watch with him. Youngest wanted to gt the dvd of it (he's 13 - er no, don't think so!) Watching katie & peter now - wish i had all their money its sickening x

Quack quack, i'm fine thanks Tracey. Been well busy today. Had work and youngest son meant to be having 2 friends back after school, 1 text later turned into 3, another turned into 4 as didn't want to leave one out! They were late home as one of the boys pizza that he made at school ended up...

Be careful ladies, you can drown your insides with too much!! My eldest son drinks pints of water every day and i'm always telling him this. Even though, I will make an effort to drink more water.:7834:

Hi Lou, whats simply filling? I can't seem to shift any more and am open to new ideas. I am on roughly 18 points but its still not going:( Are things still going well with your fella moved in? Have a good week x

For gods sakes Sherry, it's just not fair loosing soo much in such a short time!!! Seriously though, well done, well chuffed for you (but am really jealous). How's Asda going? x

Hope you had a good week away. Well done on all your achievements. x

Poor old you stuck in a lab, but not too much sympathy as i've been stuck in an office where the heating has only just been turned off today. Can't leave any doors open as kids get in! (know what animals in zoo feel like). Not long till you'll be flying off:) x

Glad you've got your click again. Sorry you've had to move your diary Hope your mum is keeping well and managing some sort of normality.

Ooh no, don't do liver. Used to cook it for hubby with onions. Must admit smells yum, but yuk taste (my opinon). He used to like kidney as well, but soon got him out of that. When we first got married I tried to be good housie and make steak and kid pie. Trouble is didn't know you cooked...

Sorry if my thread above is boring but I just felt like rambling as everyone out so on my own and no one to talk to except 1 hungry and 1 anorexic dog x

Just back from work, and the sun's gone:mad: God my inner thighs are killing me after yesterdays swimming (i do breast stroke all the time so legs get lots of exercise!) Feel like i've been sitting on a horse (can't explain why but i just do...). My cav spaniel won't eat anything. He was...

Hello all, just a quickie as just out the door for work. God my legs ache - from run not swim. Was going to try to waddle out again tonight, so will see if I loosen up by tonight. Just had my breckie a .5 yoghurt. Hope you all have a great day - lucky you, anyone who hasn't got work today...

Just popped in quickly to update food diary. B - ww yoghurt choc drink 1.5 L - Bacon roll with 1 lean rasher - 4 D - ww meal - 4 - choc mousse 1.5 S - few pringles, few peanuts half choc cookie - 5 Total = 16 + 2 apples = 17

Hi Twiggy, just popped in to say hello!

Glad your cat came back - hope you had a good day x

Hello from another SAD person. Seriously I hate the cold dark weather as well. The sun sparks me back to life and I certainly don't feel quite so stressed. Me thinks i'll have tot move some where hot and exotic.... Hope you've had a good day x:)

Anna, change your thread heading. You are not a pig, you're human! There'll be a farmyard going with you calling yourself a pig and me calling myself a duck!! x

Sorry your dad's being stubborn about the wedding. I'm afraid I think as parents get older they become more self centred. Glad you enjoyed your primark shop. I would have had that AND the chocolate. Your doing wicked with the weight x:)

Well done Rosie, you'll be a tiny skinny Rosie with your next goal x

Yehhh, well done Gabby both with the 2nd interview and with the lovely date! So pleased everything's going well for you x

Well done Sherry on knocking so much weight off already x

Hi Jess, i'd say TGI's or Frankie & Benny's in case little one gets restless. These places are usually so loud with the music and everyone talking over the music you can't hear if niece gets windgey (they all seem to in restaurants). Quieter places mean you feel awkward if is crying etc (not...

13th-19th April Nannis- 2 bobwillbethin - Manny- 21lbs to go1 - 1 lauramumof2 - Lozbo- Liveinhope- Curvysam - JaxieD- Gabrielle27 - 0 Stayed the same - have begun exercising to try to shift it as i have sts for a while x Good luck everyone else

Isn't it funny, bit of exercise and you feel like you've lost a stone, then go to try on pair of jeans in shop and see reflection of bum in mirror:eek:, need to do lots more exercise! I am a bit nosy as not much else to do while splashing up and down! Wish I swam like a fish though not a duck!

Well just got back from swimming with the oldies - they certainly make the most of a free swim in the pool! There's one old guy doing front crawl, takes so long bringing his arm back over from a stroke, I think he might loose balance in the water and fall back into backstroke. There is also...

Welcome back! How are things going

Sorry you've had such a bad week. How sad your sisters aren't very supportive. Hope your dad gets better and your able to relax a little more x p.s. thanks for the rep x

Don't go out after dark - Karen's jogging!! Well as the flamming swimming pool was closed when I went after work, decided I had to do something to burn some calories, so dragged middle son out for a trot around the streets. Did the 5km run for life last year and was on quite a roll, but was...

Well done on the bingo. x

:cupid: Love is in the air!!! Make sure you have an early night so you're looking glam for tommorrow! I met my hubby in a club (many moons ago) when I was the worst for wear. He rang the next night to ask me out (only because his friends were going on a boat party and he couldn't swim so...

Ohh, poor you, has your cat come home yet? Hopefully it will get hungry soon. Glad you had a lovely day in the garden, even if it was with assignments. I've got the gardening bug now so spending loads of time gardening (very relaxing if got time). Hope cat returns soon x

You lucky thing, having an apartment in Spain - I would love a place to go. Know what you mean about flashier places with oh! x Son's can be a nightmare when out on the town. Eldest son is the one who will always attract hassle (he says he doesn't know why!!). My middle son, is as good as...

But Anna, you had a bloody good weekend by the sounds of it. Don't worry, there's always time time to loose weight. Good luck for a good week! x

Well done you star, that's a brilliant loss. Good luck for this week x

Just outside Alicante. My friend has a villa there (dead handy!). When I go to Spain with family I like Javea on Costa Blanca. Its got a lovely beach and large enough for it to be lively in the evening without being too commercialised. Where are you going?

You lucky thing, I could do with going somewhere hot at the moment. Am going to spain on girlie hols at end of June. Am sure dress will look lovely with a tan (not tooo jealous:mad:). Hope weekend is less boring for you. x

Hi Joanne, just a quickie to say have a wicked time in London - try not to get a steaming hangover like last weekend! (stupid comment, of course you will!!)

Hello all. Well house all cleaned and then the family arrived home! Eldest son's room always looks like we've been robbed. If we got burgled and they got in his room first they'd go back house as they would think we'd already been burgled! Anyway, been quite good food wise. L - ww tom soup &...

Well done Rachel, you are a good girl with your pointing! I agree with Jess that some nibbles don't count as points!! Enjoy your dog walking at the weekend, hope the weather keeps ok for it. I got drenched walking mine today:mad:

Mmm Dominos, yummy! Prefer dominos now to pizza hut as they're like a bit of wet cardboard with a bit of cheese on (from our local anyway). Did you get a dominos buy one get one free set of vouchers through your door? We got some posted through last week so makes a takeaway a bargain. Hope...

I've never had gritty porridge! Have a lovely weekend x

Hello, glad you're still being 100% On the question of communions, I've had 3 sons go through communion and the dress code for guests is smart (not jeans) a dress or trousers with jacket is fine. You don't need to wear a hat, you'd be over dressed with one as no one else does (not even...

Hi Anna, sure you'll have left for your weekend so if you get it when you return, hope it was nice and relaxing! How did wi go? x

Well done on staying the same. Is your house choc free yet? Mine's still got too much about but it belongs to the boys so should be out of bounds for me. I do sneak a bit sometimes though! They know i do but never moan, bless them! Hope weekend is good x

What a lovely lunch - malteasers, yummy. Hope you have a lovely weekend.

God you're so energetic Gabby - you can tell you're young! Quite therapeutic going through your wardrobe and sorting things out. I go through the whole house every now and again chucking things out (when no ones about so no one can moan!). Enjoy your exercise class tommorrow:)

Well done!!

Hello ladies! Sorry haven't posted much last couple of days but been really busy. Wallpapered downstairs loo yesterday (hurrrray!!). Well chuffed with it and actually think I should take decorating up as a living. Women are much better than men as are more precise and have a better eye for...

Fingers crossed for the job Gabby. Sounds very positive if you had things in common with the interviewer. Hope you enjoy the gym.

Wicked story about the dog walk. We've got 2 and one (half yorkie, half poodle jumps 5 foot fences and goes into neighbours gardens. Last summer dog warden sent 2 letter as said she was being a nuisence! You should deffo get a dog they're such great company. My yorkiepoo doesn't shed hair so...

Well done on your spinning - you are such a good girl, still can't find enthusiasm this week for exercise. Will start again next week when i'm back to work and can go after. I find it easier to focus when i've got the routine of work. Would love to say something nice about your footie team...

Well done Jess, you truely are an inspiration!! Isn't it hard resisting instant food late at night. I don't tend to eat many McDonalds etc, but after a night out I'm shovelling them in!! If you want a low fat burger, veggie ones are meant to be low fat (don't taste the same but a sacrifice...

Lovely to have a bit of time with children on their own. Younger obviously get more time spent on him but others still appreciate time spent with them and shopping trips (17 year old one very crafty as asks to go shopping with me when he's broke and comes back with clothes and lunch bought for...

Beautiful cake - I want some.. What a lovely picture of you. You look sooo different from the other pickie you had before. Mall cop was good, only us and 3 other people in there!! Didn't go shopping as he heard rumour that i'm going to portsmouth outlet shopping tommorrow or friday and he...

Hi Gemma - the flammin foxes were back again last night. If i forget to close the lounge curtain then my little king charles gets up on a chair as soon as the security light in the garden goes on and he's "yap yap yap yap" till someone goes and drags him down (me). I even heard son 2 get up...

Hello, haven't written on your post before but wanted to say hello and i've bought a ticket for that bus!

Hello Twiggy, haven't written on your diary before so thought i'd pop in to say hello! Hope your wi goes well tommorrow.

:happy096: wouldn't mind being a bit skinny though!!

Right, i'd better get my backside in gear and get serious. There's a treadmill my son bought a while ago which i haven't been on for ages so im gonna brush it off and get on it tommorrow - good luck everyone x

Hello Gabrielle, I've just notice you've lost 20lb, was that since your January start date, if so that's amazing. Do you think its the exercise that's made the difference.

Well hubby and son are back from their travels and bought me a lovely necklace with a heart on- bless.. Ate far too many spuds with a roast so won't point up as it will take too long and i cant be bothered! Hubby agreed its best to wallpaper. God i thought he would moan at me wallpapering as...

Don't you just hate perfect people - fancy breaking up the egg into portions!! only joking Jane :) Yes, I agree Lou, eggs are indeed devils work. It doesn't matter where I look they're there. In the boys bedroom, in the fridge. Everytime i open the fridge a rabbit is looking at me (no...

Glad you enjoyed your hot x bun. Hope you enjoyed your walk if you got your way, otherwise hope you made oh feel guilty about the footie. Think of me though I've got a hubby and 3 sons who all love footie:mad: If i'm not watching it on the tele i'm standing on a muddy field watching it!

Ooh you flirty lady tempting men with your recipies. Does your young man know what kind of a lady you turn into behind the counter?? Well done girl on ducking out of the way of the goodies you were tempted with - proud of you:) Wish I could say the same. Roast spuds were launching themselves...

Fair play to you Rosie marking maths papers - I have no clue. I have to rely on my son knowing what he's doing. He is now doing A level maths and I have not attempted anything he does as its over my head. At least you'll be learning from it as well. Hope you had a lovely weekend. Where did...

Aw you poor thing Joanne. I must admit I get some awful headaches after drinking. I love a drink but it doesn't love me unfortunately. Hope you feel better soon:D

Well just been to get some wallpaper samples for loo wall, think hubby will freak out when he sees i'm thinking of putting wallpaper up as we've spent years taking wallpaper down and painting walls! Still he's not doing it so he knows what he can do:p His flight is delayed (he says 3 hours but...

Decorating described as a car crash OMG I don't feel i've had any sleep:sigh: Finished painting loo and still didn't like it. Son came in and described it as a car crash. Now i always do our decorating and am quite proud of it but this time i did a short cut. There was paper on the walls so...

I love mud pie. I'm making roast tommorrow as hub and youngest son back from spain. mommyB has given me the inspiration of a christmas pud under the stairs I could use for pud! Well done MommyBs mil for the inspiration:happy096:

You're certainly determined to loose it by Vegas. Have you been before? Friends of ours have asked me and hub to go next march for friends 40th. Hope you had a lovely day.

Good idea Fuzzy about the bread & butter pud - have you been watching the jamie oliver ad?? I'm for freezing them and having one for breakfast each day. I been having one for breakfast for last few days. Hope you get your work done.

Up earlyish to get jobs done - I know its easter sunday, but no one here till tommorrow so roast etc tommorrow. Painted the walls of the loo and decided i don't like it so have repainted tonight with magnolia (exciting i know). Gave the two dogs hair cuts and showers with was mayem. My oldest...

My god Anna, what a difference in the photos, you must be well chuffed. Keep up the good work you've done amazing.

Count me in - anything for an incentive Anna - 0lbs off - 28lbs to go Deana (kdma) - 0lbs off- 28lbs to go Sharon (sortingoutmylife) - 0lbs off - 16lbs to go Calorie Crusader - 0lbs off - 18lbs to go Nuneczka - 0lbs off - 16lbs to go Fuzzyzella - 0lbs off - 10lbs to go Caroline Ireland -...

Know what you mean about getting up and forgetting what you're eating. Got up this morning and started making bacon sandwiches - what was that all about? Then I had a pang of guilt and gave everyone else and extra slice of bacon and had a hot x bun:( Am being good so i can have a blow out...

Well done Anna, thats a brilliant achievement. Keep going the way you are and you'll reach your goal in no time. Hope you have a lovely day. Enjoy your roast and cake. "Happy Easter!"

I've always done an easter hunt even last year when youngest was 12! This year he and hub on footie tour so just me and 17 and 20 year old. 20 year old's just come in and ask what time he's got to get up for the hunt???? Err no!! Youngest didn't believe in easter bunny when he was younger...

Funny old day today. Sat down to watch Beaches, which i seemed to remember i enjoyed years ago but today found it dragged on and on and on and was quite depressing:cry: Anyway, got changed back out of my changing clothes even though i hadn't picked up a paint brush and went into town shopping...

Suppose that's a good enough reason, i'd still be tempted though

Burger, chips, ice cream mmmm. Don't know how you manage to work at mcdonalds without munching chips all day.

Hope things get better for you soon Lea. I think everyone gets a phase of thinking the world is against them as everything goes wrong. I'm sure things will improve soon.

Poor you. There's nothing worse than the sight of a sicko oh. You see that's the downside of living with him, at least before you had the option of seeing him!! My hubs a right pain in the backside when he feels ill, he takes himself straight to bed. Enjoy your lunch

Hope you're feeling better - enjoy the weekend

25% of body weight is fantastic - well done. Enjoy your birthday buffet (without eating!).

Well done Joanne, you've done so well in such a short time - 2 stone wow. Lucky you with sunshine, its piddling down here and has done all weekend :( Me thinks i will have to up my exercise as its obviously working for you. Have a lovely weekend.

Hi Tracey. Loving my weekend (yes i do miss hub and son, but still nice to only think about myself). Painting not going well. Watched one film when meant to be painting the ceiling. Now watching beaches with bette midler. Got my painting gear on ready though....

Have only just got showered and ready for the day! Am just about to paint the downstairs loo ceiling, so probably will end up with paint splattered all over me (why did i shower and put the war paint on before i painted???). I think a tescos bag will come in handy over the head. Trouble is, i...

Have decided to take a leaf out of everyone else's diaries who pre-point (especially Rachel - terribly organised). B: Highlights choc drink (1) WW yoghurt - half L: WW mushroom soup, choc mousse - 3 half D: WW Bacon & leek quiche & salad 5 and half S: Apple, highlights, yoghurt - 2 12...

Well done on the shopping. Lovely bag and belt. You are good getting tommorrows food pointed, I can't even begin to think what i'll eat tommorrow.

Well done on your 1lb Jen. If i eat at lunchtime i'm always stuffed for the day! Have a nice sleep

Hello Rachel, nice to know i've been missed. I've been lurking on the site but felt fed up and didn't feel like posting. Work has been getting to me but have had this week and got next week off :D - hard life i know!, so am more chilled:cool: It's lovely being on my own on a saturday - can't...

"Happy birthday Rosie". Hope you have a lovely meal. Enjoy your weekend.

Small world! Don't really to to mcd's only the one by station really late at night if been to london and catch late train home - will eat anything at that time!

I love the idea of being able to run as well. I did train last year and did the run for life, but spent most of the time having problems with my shins and knees - not a natural runner. I too prefer swimming, as easier on body but bugger at the moment with lots of little dive bombers on school...

Thanks Fuzzy will enjoy my evening - am watching Indecent Proposal - Robert Redford, bit rugged face, but cor! Jess - I live in Woking How do I do quotes? How do I change my thread title?

Glad my diary's being noticed. On my own tonight, as hub and son in spain, as mentioned before and other 2 sons gone out, so me and 2 dogs!! Just had tesco lighter choice chicken lasagne. Was looking forward to it with salad but disappointed as quite tasteless. Hub just rang from spain...

Just popped in to say hello - hope your assignments are going ok

Left overs are a pain when you're trying to loose weight. My children are all older now, and so no left overs (only broccoli!). When I dish out dinner in the kitchen and they come to take it into the dining room, they survey which one they want (which is bigger) and even then if i don't keep...

Sorry haven't posted lately, just been lazy, no other excuse! Well done on your last wi. If i eat more fruit it blows me out and i seem to gain , but if it works for you, go for it. Is it still going well with the oh moved in? Have a lovely weekend.

Hi nannis. Glad you're having a good week. I noted your comment about drinking more - is that water or vodka??? Chockie eggs everywhere here as well.

Dont' worry about the extra few pounds Rachel, they will soon go. At least you enjoyed your birthday! Hope your shopping went well and you bought lots of lovely clothes.

Hello all. Well I've been saying for ages I will start a diary, but decided now is the time as I'm getting a bit lazy about the points. 2 weeks off for me as well at the moment, so hard to get the momentum for exercise. When I work I find it easier to go swimming straight after work, but...
