    i found this.. if your pre-pregnancy weight was in the healthy range for your height (a BMI of 18.5 to 24.9), you should gain between 25 and 35 pounds, gaining 1 to 5 pounds in the first trimester and about 1 pound per week for the rest of your pregnancy for the optimal growth of your baby.

    Death to TextSpeak!!!!

    Text talk came around bacause longer words meant longer text's that meant more money! so people tried find a way of shortening words so that there phone bill was cheaper! I think the outside world of school doesn't help as you can forget alot if not used everyday.

    I think sometimes it's harder to use perfect grammar and spelling and checking over what you wrote. I type as I talk and i forget all punctuation and spelling, if i was alone and had couple hours to myself i'd probably try harder when typing, but in real life have 3 year and 4 year old running...

    How many syns allowed?

    I think that you'll get alot out of joining online! as for you spagetti bolognese at hotel, you will have to ask chef/waitress what they use to cook it in, if they use extra lean mince and how they make there sauce etc to find out the correct amount of syns for the meal x
  232. gemma_

    Death to TextSpeak!!!!

    some people who are dislexic etc use it quite alot as it's easier for them to get their words out same with apostrphes I have no clue even at 24 where they go. but if someone is able to type correctly then i guess it is lazyness x
