Bio oil bath sounds lovely. I've used bio-oil for a while on my stomach and it works great. A few weeks ago my daugthers teacher told me there were some brilliant writing exercise books in Poundland. I normally hate that place cause its so busy that I can't get the buggy around it. Anyway, I wanted to get Imogen some writing and reading workbooks so braved going in there and spotted something called 'Rescue Oil'. It is basically a rip-off version of Bio-oil, but at £1 for 40ml, its saves me a fair whack on the £8.80 it costs me in Boots. It works just as well as the real stuff, I'm going to go stock up on a few bottle while I can still buy it! Anyone with a Poundland near them, go check it out!

Can you use bio oil without putting it in the bath?

Yeah I use it for both! I looked in poundland, no rescue oil! I did however find a really nice dress thing which I loved but wouldn't wear now. However it was a charity shop and it was a few sizes smaller and I would wear it then so I bought it! It was really cheap, brand new, with tags, so I thought why not! I already have the whole outfit it would be a part of planned out in my head. And for the first time probably ever I could visualise myself not being as fat as I am now!

Nope, no better. Still pretty crappy. Just had a little snooze while the kids did- think my 4 year old might be a bit run down cause she never naps during the day. But I'm not complaining, the sleep was just what I needed. I feel a bit more upbeat about things now, just want to get over being ill and get cracking with dieting again, whether it be CD or WW.....

UNLEASHING THE BEAST!
Sometimes my husband drives me mental
I've come home from a long and tiring day - I walked to the shops first, bought him lots of scrummy food. Healthy but scrummy. Walk to butchers buy big bone for dog, as can't leave her out. Wish I had left her out as get home to discover shes skid marked the couch. The kitchens a mess, theres wet towels hanging over everything, the curtains are still drawn (!) and bed not made, dishwashers overflowing etc.
Drink my shake. Calm down.
Sit down to PC - AND THERES A GIANT PACKET OF CHOC HOB NOBS.
"NEW bigger Biscuit" apparently.
He's getting a "dooin" when he's home. And not in the fun way

In the space of a hour though
I've done the kitchen, loaded the dishwasher, stripped the couch, made the bed, put on a load of washing, hoovered, emptied bins and steam cleaned the hall laminate, livingroom and kitchen floors.
Just about to do the windows.
I mean HOW CAN HE NOT SEE IT?

They have no peripheral vision apparently. Also they are lazy b*stards x

They don't actually. They have 45 degree field of vision, women have 180 degree vision. This stems from times where men needed to hunt to provide and women stayed behind to guard the "nest". Thus men fixate on a very narrow line of vision to fix on and hunt prey, women have better peripheral vision to spot intruders coming near the nest.
From "Why men don't listen and women can't read maps"
Great book. Very illuminating

Yep, have read it after seeing the bloke speak at a conference (am thinking Alan Carr, but that's a comedian isn't it?) Do you remember the but about men talking to you with their legs wide open? x
