Blergh! - FatFairNForty(ish) - my diary

you could of taken my dads xmas pressie ,,,,,if youre going to coventry !!
 
oh well say hello to him for me xx
 
glad you're feelin so good about your new bras and everything. It's amazing how much difference a good fitting bra makes isn't it. Wish I could afford some new ones
 
Just read your diary for the last two days, it really made me laugh. Well done on your loss so far. I'm so pleased that you are feeling so happy and confident and just seem to have so much lust for life! Am intrigued to read about "Eric" and feel the need to find out a bit more with a bit of background reading, however, I think it might need to wait until I've got lots of free time if there are 13 pages to catchup on :)

And great news about the bra!! I love wearing a red bra, makes me feel a bit naughty for some reason as they are usually only purchased in black!

I hope that you enjoy Cov with Mich, I can see why you two get on so well, she's a right chatterbox too!

Sorry! I know I go on WAY too much... must be coz I don't have a partner to waffle away too (erk... foodie reference again!!)

Thanks for the nice comments :D

I can't believe you are heavier than me!?? I've seen your pics!! You look amazing!!!!!
 
Hi, i love reading your posts! Couldn't stop laughing about the bra things. I'm now a 32 JJ - have lost loads of weight, but not off my chest. According to my DH I'm now an upsidedown weeble!

I wore that Doreen bra for years and hated it, I was so glad to get some other nice ones.

Love the website you posted. I recently discovered Bravissimo and am going to try their blouses specially cut for chests! But the site you posted has similar bras, but you get to try them on whihc is even better.
 
Thursday 14th December

It's 8.30am, I'm at work, in me new bra!! lol (and lots of other clothes too of course!)... but me new bra is the dogs wotsits!! :D :D :D :D (wearing me "nude" coloured one) lol... I love it! lol

When the bra lady came 'round last night I tried on me Brummie top (I'll have to call it that) and she was like - oh yes... that is VERY slimming! lol .. so Mich.. although I hadn't intended 2 nights out on the town in the Toon.. I guess I might be persuaded to meet up with ya! lol ;)

There was something else.. oh yes... when I put the top on I was telling her all about the WeMitts meet at Brum and all the lovelies that went.. and our night in Flares.. tee hee.. at this point Zoe left us to it... (she has heard it all before.. lol).. ooh, she showed Zoe how to "stick" the dress to me bra and also to me!!! Not sure how I'll do it on me own on the "Toon" ! Still... where there's a will... etc etc..

I've got to be more disciplined about work now.. boss coming in about 9 today and I have stuff to do before he gets here so will have to sign off fer now and catch up later.. when I got up this morning, after my shower, I put all the christmas presents on the bed so I can see what's what.. there's flippin loads of 'em! Still... if I get stuck in this afternoon I should have them wrapped and labelled (if I can find the labels... although I often make me own out of the wrapping paper so it's ok anyway... mind you.. if I get a few minutes I might create some here and take them home with me! lol NO - work Jennie!!! WORK!!!

Grrr... can stick to the diet but not be so good with the work at the moment.. ah well... and... ANOTHER dream about first hubby last night!!!! Argh! None of the dreams are bad.. all quite comforting actually... but making me think hard about how I treated him when we were married and how he treated me.. and wishing he was still alive... but that's a whole waste of effort.. lol.. I mean, I DO believe in miracles - they happen every day... but the next time me and Andy shall meet will be when my time is up too .. :D

Ohhh, I watched that Too Big to Walk last night... brilliant programme.. more comments on that later.. must go and do this work before he gets here as that will make my morning SO much easier.. (and I'm all for making life as easy as possible!)...

oh... before I forget... ( know, I know... do I EVER shut up!!?!?!?!)... my next target it to get to 16 stone... once I get to that I am going to do (GP permitting - BP might be an issue)... a tandem parachute jump in aid of NCH (National Childrens Home) so... have your wallets ready! lol I'll be touting for sponsors come... erm... March?... but that's my next goal anyhow.. :D toddle pip fer now! hope all have a fabbo day! xxx

wow that is excellent you have done sooooo well. You have really been an extra special inspiration to me this week as I lost next to nothing as well even though I had been 100% an angel and the way you just got on with things has been brilliant. Keep it up!

Hi Swanky - sorry.. I missed your post in the midst of all me cheering and whooping! lol

I am SO glad that you got something good out of my diary.. it was SO damn hard to keep motivated with such a piddling loss! So.. hang on in there coz I KNOW it is worth it and WE CAN do it!! :D

Not sure I just got on with things.. lol.. I bitched and whined and whinged every teensy step of the way... lol... but still... thank you so much for coming on and saying what you did.. best of luck with your weight loss journey :D Keep us posted with how it's going! :D xx

Hi, thanks! lol Upside down weeble eh? does that mean that you don't wobble but you do fall down? ;)

I am thinking of doing a covert "anti-Doreen" campaign... entering Evans etc and spraying "DO NOT BUY" on the boxes in pink glittery paint (well, red is SO passe!) tee hee... only trouble is me mums best mate is called Doreen and I call her Aunty Doreen and if me mum got wind she might get upset and confused!!!:rolleyes: ;)

I have to tell you, Mandy from Louises Boutique is so lovely and the shop is packed with wonderful bras! She has another shop in Biggleswade too which sounds identical! If you get a chance call in she will definitely have something or be able to get something in for you!

I have never felt so damn comfortable with someone - I mean, there we were , me boobs a-dangling in front of a total stranger!!! well, I did have my back to her, but was stood in front of a mirror! (and female to boot!!!!) :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek:

I know that I am going to be a regular visitor as me Jordans (think I'll nickname them that courtesy of my Zoe) reduce..! lol

I'm a total convert now to good fitting bras! So beware! If I meets up with any similarly decolotage-lly challenged dieters... I may be slipping you her business card! ;) It could have a major impact on your life!! Even if you simply get fitted properly, get one bra from her and then scour ebay for more!!! ;) :D

I told her if we ever have a meet up in this neck of the woods that I will herd all the girlies into her shop and she can do a "before" and "after" on us! lol :D

Shoot... been chanking way too much (as usual!) gotta go do some work!

Thanks again for your comments - really glad you like the link :D (still loving me new bra!!) :p
 
Hi Jennie,

I have always been told that when your losing weight it is crucial to have the boobiessupported with a good fitting bra. It does make such a difference in clothes and in comfort.

Instead of binning your bras their is an organization that is very happy to recieve your old bras as we foget so many women in the world bras are a luxury item of clothing.

I never thought about this until I came across an article in a womens magazine talking about it.

If your or anyone else may be interested you can check out this website.

http://www.breasttalk.co.uk/bra-appeal/

I have also posted it in retail therapy forum...

Love Mini xxx
 
Hi Mini

That sounds a great charity - but I already promised my bras to a the Whitechapel Mission in London (hostel for the homeless) Whitechapel Mission - working with the poor and homeless of London

I will, however, tell my friends about it and send them the link - I'll also have a word with the boutique owner and see if she would be willing to let me pick up any discarded bras from her shop and bring them home, wash them and send them on.. that way she won't have to throw any out for her customers!

Thanks for this info - it's brilliant and something I'd never heard of before! (might put it in my quarterly newsletter... that'll raise some eyebrows! lol).. still, if it means another woman benefits then it HAS to be worth it! :D

I am of this weekend to get measured for bra. I had thought I would not do it until I had lost more weight but you have sold me on the idea so hopefully by saturday night I will also be the owner of a properly fitting bra!!
