Can't wait to meet him/her! Failed fast today, wasn't feeling quite right today, and sugar was a bit of a lifesaver. 1816kcals today. Attempt fast again tomorrow xxx

That's the good thing with fasting, if one day doesn't work out, for whatever reason, just swap it with another. Lovely ultrasound pic...is making me all broody...but suppose I'd need a man for that!!

Hope you've enjoyed the sunshine over past few days carrie? Though is hasn't come out today at my neck of the woods

i realised i didnt didn't reply to your post about measurements. Oh! My you are tiny!! It goes to show the number on the scale can vary from person to person and it should be approached with caution!

i am 5ft 2 and at my current weight which from yesterday was 9st 4 and jeans size 12 but a snug fit (almost too snug still) and top 10 though I can fit into 8's but again on snug side. Measurements are 34/5 bust waist 29/30 hips 39 all from memory! I'm a classic pear. At 8st 7lb I will re measure and tell you what I am then. I have to be a whole stone less than some one of my height to be same dress size as I'm of Asian (indian) ethnicity and apparently the density of bones differ between Asians and Caucasians and Asians Bmi is lower to be in healthy Bmi range. It means I have to be Bmi of 22 not 25 for a healthy Bmi. So not fair! Ha!ha!

sorry a lot of waffle for first thing on the morning! Have a great day.

Today is going to be a good day, vanilla latte for breakfast 109kcals and found my old size 16 uniform...

 

[Kira]

Wow! Did the uniform "fit' as in close fit? In other word is wan't a loose top when you were bigger? It looks very big!

 

[carrieclaus]

We were all measured beforehand and I was between a 16-18 so they suggested an 18 but I begged for the 16 lol! It was very snug! Xxx
