Haha, I've a friend who's got inlaws like that. She calls them 'The Outlaws' lol

I called mine many things Sarah. Outlaws was one of them.....along with morons, freaks, vodka police, wine monitors ... :giggle: I tried really hard to make some sort of relationship with them, but they were the sort of people who needed jokes explaining to them Gave up in the end and just got drunk instead lol


Would be much easier to do this with someone like that around to hug me when I did well

Wouldn't it just eh! lol

Thanks for the ass-kicks earlier btw, feeling much more positive now. Sooo glad I'm here with all of you to support me :grouphugg:

We can kick your ass any time you want Sarah Just make sure you keep coming back. You'll get there chick - it's just a bit hard at times when life and enjoyment get in the way...

Am just getting into bed after some late night training. Did just under 5 miles today but did an unnatural amount of hills. Feeling really good and hopefully this extra body magic will aid my weigh in on weds. I want my 10% *stomps foot*

Well done for the losses and sts. Hope everyone is having a good week!

Good luck for Wednesday Ellen xx Hope you get your 10%

Well - not speaking from personal experience but basically this woman saw the tv do a colonoscopy using coffee and water - so she did it herself and I'm not sure why but she continued to do it every day for 7 years and now she's having trouble stopping - I'm confused I must admit and the doctor looked very confused too!

There's some very strange people about I don't think I'll ever understand folks who do such daft things knowing that it just can't be right

There are some proper freaks around! What's going on in their heads??

I dunno Sarah. I'll just finish off my DIY coffee colonoscopy and I'll give it some thought lol

Don't know - I was really surprised to see Corky admit her problem on TV to be honest

[peacedove]

Hello all, Corky I am also thinking of having a drinkie free weekend....shall we do it together....just want to see how much difference it may or may not make to my loss......although I'm not sure it would persuade me to give up for the rest of the year!!! Stuck to the fizzy pop wine and G and slimline T on Saturday.....having always been a SW girl I never bothered with calories but when someone tells you a bottle of wine is around 575 cals it makes you think!! xxx

Oooo I don't think I can commit to that Clare It's ok in my head, but actually doing it might be a different matter! :8855:

I'm a voddy girl really Clare, I just switched to wine to keep a better track of my synage Mind, I've never worked out how many syns are in a bottle of vodka......I don't 'do' measures lol

Ellen You're not in the 18's!! :giggle:

 

[ellen83]

afternoon all, ive had another great start today, i was tempted into weighing myself this morning, and they aint working they are weighting well under, 4 days ago i weight 295lb and this morning 274lb so im hoping its just a battery needs replacing, should of seen my face though who wouldnt love a 21lb drop in 4 days,,,

Better then what happened when my scales broke, when you stood on them you got heavier and heavier. Put my 3year old at over 10st lol

 

[ellen83]

Ellen You're not in the 18's!! :giggle:

Hell no... Won't be in the 17s come the end of April I hope (and not because I've gone back to the 18s lol)

 

[xClaire84x]

Afternoon

I have over 6 stone to lose before my wedding next year and i was told about this group.

I think I'll come to the 16's with you Ellen if you don't mind I reckon we can get there by the end of April Bring it on! lol

Clare, I've just worked out the synnage in a bottle of vodka (because I would polish the bottle off lol) and it's 77 syns for the bottle, where as last weekend I had 3 bottles of wine at 72 syns. There's very little in the two calorie wise too..... Mmmmm Voddy might make a nice change lol

Cheekymonkey, hopefully it's just the battery that needs replacing. Mine did the same a couple of weeks ago......I weighed somewhere between 5 stone and 8 stone everytime I tried them! lol

Welcome shrinkingmer I seem to be the welcoming committee today! lol

I only really do red days, and don't really have any green recipies unfortunately, but someone will be around with some 'green knowledge' later i'm sure I do have one green day per week, but green for me is chips chips chips :giggle:

Of course, it will be nice to have the company, not sure if the 16s will know what hit 'em when we turn up all excited!

I'm not really a big drinker, partially down to being a light weight, which is ironic as being a bigger girl you think I could handle a drink and partially as I'm breastfeeding, don't think my littlest man who appreciate the hangover!

We don't mind at all Claire Welcome to the mad house, the more the merrier You have to be slightly nuts to tollerate some of the folks on here......not me of course, I'm the shy, retiring sensible one lol

YEAH RIGHT!!!! And I'm actually a super model and don't eat this food stuff you ladies keep talking about!
