Dinkie Dawnies Dubious Diary of Downsizing, Deflation, and Debauchery

Sorry only just catching up - WELL DONE on fab loss. You're doing amazingly well. Very impressive indeed. I need to take a step out of your book.
Good luck for today (assuming I've got the correct day for spreading your Dad's ashes). Thinking of you. x

Hi Penny,

Thanks for that, And thanks for remembering about Dads ashes xx

You're quite right, we were going to do that today, but unfortunately something really awful happened where my brother works (I'm unable to say what atm) and so we've had to put things on hold. My brother's physically ok, but what happened had really screwed his head up and so we're just going to wait a couple of weeks or so. Luckily he's due to go on holiday with the family on Sunday which is just what he needs to help him recover.

Thanks so much for remembering Penny xx
 
Sorry Dawn I've just read your last post and I'd totally forgotten about your dads ashes. I feel so thoughtless now for making sarcastic comments. I hope you're all ok and I'm sorry about whatever has happened with your brother too.

Can you pop in here on your way back, Dawn?
I've got a zillion teenagers here, and may need some back up!

And because it's raining, I've got to barbecue on the griddle in the kitchen!

(Wearing a tiger costume, obviously.)
Yeah, I know. Pics need to follow, or it didn't happen. I'll see.

Hi Dawn- I hadn't forgotten about the ashes scattering but fell into the latter category and didn't want to say anything.

Sorry to hear that it didn't happen and hope your brother is okay and his hols helps.

Have a good night chica, enjoy your synfree buffet and little glas of wine (and no, I don't believe you) and I'll hopefully see you here later too. Off out to another concert tonight - Eric Burden & the Animals!! More serious sounds of my youth.

Hi Dawn

I keep sneaking a peek at your diary to see what you're up to. I don't post much as I don't do SW and don't want the SW heavies after me!

Your loss is amazing and it's good you can sneak in the odd glass of plonk and a take-away here and there. I, on the other hand, haven't lost any weight. I keep putting off doing SW - too complicated, not enough cheese, why 28g and not 30g etc etc, excuse after excuse!

I always think of slimming clubs as middle aged, sad and like knitting club or something. Well, I am middle aged, sad and no, I don't knit yet but..... :D

Love Pomooky XX

Hi pomooky

Im not a sw heavy lol well actually i suppose i am i do sw and Im heavy lol but not in the way you meant however i do rate sw yes you don't get a lot of cheese but it is the easiest diet i have ever done what other diet could you get away with eating steak and chips or a full English breakfast on?!?

I am a prime example for putting things off but no longer shall i! If you ever feel like giving sw a go give us a shout and we will be happy to help you or give you a kick up the bum if needed.

Good luck in whatever you decide to do x x

You haven't got a chance!

Anyway...

I lost 2.5lbs and got joint SOTW!!! :wee: So thank you all for your good luck messages...they must have worked! :flowers:

Mind you, I did get the lawn mown, tied a load of climbers back, did the hoovering, and got the washing done before lunch lol! :superwoman:

Then I spent the afternoon cooking :eating:

I made a really nice lentil dahl to go with yesterdays curry leftovers, then I made a HUGE pan of Minimums bacon and lentil soup which I'm going to freeze, and I couldn't resist making ANOTHER roulade!!! :rolleyes: I just LOVE them!!! :gimi:

Then of course it was time for wi, and Frances kindly offered to pick me up :character00182: Andrew didn't go tonight as he was busy working on my mums garden, so he's going tomorrow morning instead. Oh, and Frances lost a pound too :party0011:

So now I'm getting my fix of minimins, with a very full belly, and a BIG glass of vino...perfect!!! :bliss:

I do hope everyone's had a good day :D

Hi Dawn,

Hope you are well today. I am enjoying 2 days off work, i work as a health care assistant for the nhs in elderly orthopaedic rehab so am enjoying a break from the ward as the patients do get a little heavy.
I have celebrated my 24th birthday today and my partner has given me a lovely day. I havent managed to stick to my sw diet today as i thought i have done well so far that i could have a day off, especially on my birthday, lol. I will let you know when i start a diary and you can then pop in and have a look.

Take care for now x
 
Hi Dawn,
Sorry to hear something horrible has happened yet again to your family. Hope your brother is ok and is able to work through the difficult times.
Hope your chinese buffet was yummy.You sure deserved it.
Off out to open house at a work colleague's this afternoon then aunt's 50th tonight so probably won't get a chance to be on here, but we'll see!
Take care. Have a nice weekend x
