Ive had a google and it says couple of days to go. Oh well my measurements are going down and if i have a gain this week ill know its muscle still want a loss though.
so whats the plans for this party? you are a busy lady x

Cool.. well hopefully by the time weigh in comes you'll be showing a loss, weight & inches wise!

This is just family so need to sort out what I'm doing foodwise! Pauls away at Goodwood races with the boys & comes back early Sat morning so I'll need to be organised. Have asked them to come over at 1000 so will do a light lunch of some sorts!

Ahh poor hannah, at least its only a few weeks though! I was up 5 times last night for the loo and im not even showing yet! It was quite funny at the wedding reception on sat a friend from work came over and said congrats and touched my tummy (this infuriates me unless very close friends!), then suddenly took her hand away and said wheres it gone. I explained im only really early and she said to me "but its gone, i mean your skinny, your belly has gone". Of course i hugged her and couldnt stop smiling, 6wks preggers and being told im skinny..........Loved it

Brilliant babes... I can see yr smile from here!

Vic are we gate crashing?

You don't have to gate-crash... yr always welcome. x

Also Dukan is a fervent admirer of sleeeeep - something I've always thought strange because I sleep far less now than when I was big...

Daily weighing is great in attack, but really isn't so good as things progress. So many things can affect our weight - cycle, transit, water retention, salty food... so I'm finding sporadic weighing "kinder" on my psyche

I sleep less when low carbing... very bizarre!

I just French googled "Dukan and sleep"... and the responses reminded me of something...

This diet can cause insomnia in some... I know you've Hannah to watch over at the moment, but could your insomnia be diet related? Or even, dare I say it, EXERCISE related? (Cos I do my activity first thing, arrive here BUZZZZING like anything, and gradually come down by lunchtime... and would love a sleep after lunch, but apparently that's not acceptable where I work - no idea why!!! Whereas you do your day's toil, go home, and THEN exercise. Could you be revving yourself up too much at the WRONG time of day???

oooh I love "Glorious Goodwood" and have many fond memories of going as a child...

 

[cherl889]

Thanks Linz hun.
Ive always slept less when low carbing and put it down to not feeling so tired or sluggish that i want a nap throughout the day

 

[LVLLM]

and i hope you arent suggesting I do my exercise on a morning LOL.

oooh I love "Glorious Goodwood" and have many fond memories of going as a child...

Its been a boys tradition with them for about 15 years... no girls allowed, I kinda messed it up for him a bit when Amalie was born on the 31st July as it has fallen on or around Goodwood since she was born! Mind you he did go there 2 days after she was born... I figured it was a good way for him to wet the baby's head!

 

[LVLLM]

sounds fun linz, and peace for you???

 

[ditzeeblonde]

Not peace Vicky... means I have to do the bedtime & breakfast routine for the kids!!

 

[cherl889]

Maybe a ladies day needs to be arranged!

 

[LVLLM]

yes and day out for the girls and the boys can stay at home and babysit

 

[ditzeeblonde]

Definately!! x

 

[cherl889]

Perfect

 

[LVLLM]

woop looking forward to body pump this evening :S am i mad? i can barely walk and tomorrow my arms will be rendered useless. oh well night off tomorrow. (probably) will get 30 min supermarket dash round tesco though. i just hate dawdlers in supermarkets!

 

[cherl889]

Lol me too!

 

[LVLLM]

ha ha!

 

[Maintainer]

I hate dawdlers ANYWHERE! What has Dukan turned us into! I'm now one of those rude Parisians who pushes past anyone in her way! Never queues... and glares at people!

Men do have their uses though at Goodwood... queuing up to put the bids on... going to get the drinks... driving... going to get the car when the car park is its usual MUD pack state!

 

[cherl889]

Well Jo, when in paris...........Im suprised its taken you this long

 

[LVLLM]

oh im soo bad in shops. I have the list written out in order of whereabouts in shop it is. usually veg/salad first. wine at the end

 

[cherl889]

OMG im exactly the same but ive come home from hoilday and they have changed it all about. I dont know where anything is. Its a ploy to make you buy more but that doesnt work with me as im good and dont stray from my list
