well good morning chaps. it's far too early. i've had a pretty good weekend. went to a mate's house on friday night and avoided drinking, ha. had a few people over on saturday and another mate cooked for everyone, that was nice too. and yesterday i spent the entire day reading and watching murder in suburbia, which, by the way, rocks, ha.

you recovered yet tyn?

Morning abz. You beat me to it this morning. Looks like a lovely morning too :character00238: Sun has smiled down on me ALL weekend and it's still with me. How cool is that? Oh abz, I have been such a naughty girl this weekend but I am completely unrepentent. I have 7 days to undo the damage so I HAVE to behave now. On the bright side, I have had LOADS of outdoor living this weekend and that gives you a feel-good feeling, producing serotonin, which gives the feel good factor. Production of serotonin helps you not to crave sugary things and lifts the mood. Also vit. D is obtained from sunshine so my battery is well and truly charged watch out everyone x

 

[abz]

ha. i'm hoping i'll get out at some point to actually SEE the sunshine. i might go out this lunch time and read my book somewhere nice

am thinking about having a hot chocolate for brekkie mmm.

Well done you abz. The sun will do you SO much good. I'm going to try to take advantage of the sun today too, even though I've banked a fair bit of serotonin and vit D this weekend. Another feel good factor at the weekend was the music and the friends AND as well as having an amazing time, we raised £250 for a childrens hospice - how cool is that? x

 

[Taz]

Sounds like you had a great weekend Gem. Yes Mr Taz dried out, luckily we brought towels with us as I knew that someone would go in the stream!

Yes Taz, a totally amazing weekend So back to the towels and the stream - is Mr Taz usually the one? x

 

[Taz]

Yeah for doing goofy stuff like that. I was actually thinking more of paddling when I packed the towels but someone had the foresight to rig up a swing for our entertainment!

 

[Gemstone]

Good for them. They must have known it was your birthday and couldn't afford a clown! hehehe x

stop reading so many books abz you're making me feel bad haha. i used to be an avid reader and then something happened. i really dont know what. and now i have to forcefully make myself pick one up and try and read it.

Sounds like you had a great weekend Gem. Yes Mr Taz dried out, luckily we brought towels with us as I knew that someone would go in the stream!

happy belated birthday taz!!

 

[Taz]

Thanks Elle, sorry you had a bad weekend!

 

[abz]

hey guys. glad you had a good one taz and sorry you had a bad one elle... although it sounds like it was just bad on the food front and ok otherwise? i really want to see wall-e

i can't write much today. it's a bit manic. and the sun went in just before my lunch hour so no luck there

i'll catch you all later. and stop me reading elle? never!! i read a whole book on sunday

abz xx

 

[Fattyfattyboomboom]

Hey all. Sorry If I forgot to say happy belated b-day Taz!! But nice to know you had fun!

Gem....see fresh air does work!! And nothing like a good old natter in the middle of the moonlight. Used to do that when I was back home. Walk around the block or two bare footed and just chatting away. I miss those carefree days...hahaha

Elle, Sorry about the food but I am sure if you just get stuck in this week you'll be fine. =-)

Abz...sorry about the sunshine. Not much here either. As a matter of fact...it is quite cold today. I am about to put the heating on....but then again I have to start cooking shortly...so maybe I may wait a bit.

Taz...have you recovered or are you still trying to get over the weekend too?

Well, Good news is I think all things are ok now...I am only 1 pound up from last week....so I am happy with that. I have stopped gaining ( I only gained a few ounces as a time) But hopefully I should be on my way back down come my "offical" WI next monday.
I am going to make me some lunch shortly, watch judge judy...then go and prepare dinner. ( not that I think I am going to be eating much. Maybe just a sandwich or a tuna salad.

Anyway well...hope you have a good rest of the day and speak to you all soon.........

p.s Wall -E is great from what I have seen of it. LU loves it.

 

[elle2585]

Jenn you sound a bit low from that last post. you ok? wall-e is...erm... well i liked it but then a lot of the people i saw it with didn't. you do kind of think, what on EARTH am i watching. But it's sweet. Just incredibly random.

the over eating over the weekend isnt really getting me down, it's more the fact that yesterday and today i feel SO INCREDIBLY FAT. you know, when you catch a glimpse of yourself in shop windows and you just think aaaaaaaaaah noooooo.

wow a book in a day abz. last time i did that was with harry potter haha. what book did u read?

 

[abz]

it was ps. i love you and it made me ball my eyes out. not something to read if you are feeling sensitive that's for sure!!

and yeah. i did that with the last couple of harry potters too

am looking forward to finishing off IT, although what i'll read then i don't know!!

am thinking of getting one of those gym ball things to do pilates on. have any of you ever had one?

abz xx

 

[elle2585]

my cousin did abz but i used to use it as a massive ball and bounce it around hahaha. i read p.s. i love you in my first year of uni in around one day aswell, it's soooo sad isnt it? read where rainbows end too. that's pretty cool. i refuse to watch the movie of ps i love you purely because i read the book and loved it. x

haha...no hun, I am fine. Had a great day...LU just made me laugh most of it, and been cuddling him most of the the day.

Not eaten too muh today, not been hungry. Was a bit naughty though...Went to buy OH a sandwich from one of the sandwich places in town and LU decided he was hungry ( having eaten breakfast only 45 minutes eariler, plus peaches...hahaa. So I got him a full lunch _ sandwich ( chicken sweetcorn, cheese and cucumber) and a few crisps...and some coleslaw with apple juice . He loved it all....only ate 1/3 of the sandwich ( which was fine, a few crisps, and most of the coleslaw ( which was a surprise). But he had some left and I didn't want it wasted...so I had two bits of the sandwich (which I have counted as 5 syns...as they were only small bits) and 1 tbs of the slaw. , but the funny thing is...it was only a little and I feel bad. But then again I only had a banana for breakfast and some water ( as I wasn't hungry). Then I made a polish pickle. Which was lovely, and my new best lunch of rivita, chicken, laughing cow light, spring onions, mushroom and salad cress. It does sound like a lot but it is really quite small. Over all my actually lunch consisted of very little. And I haven't been hungry at all....so i didn't eat any dinner tonight. I was slightly peckish just now...so I had half a pear and a small apple . Which should do me really. Luckily for me on SW I haven't used any syns today, apart from what I assigned myself for eating that little bit of naughty stuff. I really can't see that it is going to make a difference. I am determined though to only eat if I a hungry, which was why I didn't have any tea tonight...no point eating just because in theory I can. You know?

But the answer to your question, no I am fine...hahaha.

 

[Taz]

No Jenn, I haven't recovered from the weekend yet. I had a falling out with my scales on Sunday morning. We are back on speaking terms but we aren't as friendly as we could be. I'm sure we will make it up again next week though!

 

[Gemstone]

Glad everyone is ok. I wonder if Tyn is still sleeping off the weekend. I would've liked have had a recovery day today but had a big meeting I couldn't get out of x
