Determined and can!!!!!

I know it's hard but hang in there cos it will be fluid with monthlies - the results show eventually, try not to let it get to you xxx
 
Darn star week, its mine too and I've been ever so good but not you can do about it so ill just stick with it like Aqua says and it'll come off next week. Not in my case though as I'll be in Tunisia so it'll stay on with a few rich dinners & wines :) x

Sounds like your Xmas is coming together :) first Xmas present I bought arrived in the post today. Must admit I'm fancying some wine tonight with the week I've had at work but trying o be good asI need the syns for homemade burger - hey ho caramel syn free coffee it is.
 
Hey sharon. I am good. I actually forgot to WI this morning. Hubby was up early for work and I was onto my second cup of tea before I realised! Will WI in the morning. Made curry for us for tea. Cold up here too. Busy work day but manageable. Some nights I wish it was only me for tea......!!! :) will report back tomorrow re WI

We had curry too :). Good luck for WI tomorrow am x we'd miss them though if it was just us all the time but does seem a round of meals huh
 
Yeah!! Lost a pound. Delighted. Seem to be just maintaining over last few weeks but happy with this. I have never watched my weight over Christmas before so go me. If I could loose a pound and a half I would be back to pre Egypt weight and be happy. Bitty day, meeting in Newcastle and taking the car as then have to be at MILs as she has an assessment for a shower to be put in then she is coming for tea. I am about to put beef casserole in the slow cooker!!
 
Not like you not to be organised sharon! Full of cold I was up in the night blowing my nose! Got to the shops for 9.15. I got loads done and I am really happy. It got so busy from about 11. I have a lot going on socially over the next few weeks so need to keep organised. One thing I need is something new to wear for going out. Had a look today and there wasnt much. Gonna try some Internet shopping tonight for clothes
 
Internet clothes shopping is great, try on and send back if it doesn't fit - definitely a good way to go rather than battle in the shops. I've got my daughters main pressie and hubby's, son is going to give me a list of snow boarding stuff he needs. So a few bits to pick up there. Still need to sort pressies for my five stepchildren and their children. They may well have money so they can put it towards something they need, not sure yet - hubby has to decide that but its nice to get pressies too. Probs on line shopping if necessary :). Difficult when they all live so far away as we don't always get to see them at Xmas. I plan on writing Xmas cards and posting this week. Have picked up some Xmas naughties - have the kids too but am buying less than usual. Did however get 6 bottles of £10 red wine today, half price then 33% off in Morrisons so £23 - will be shared though :) So I guess I am organising and Decs go up tomorrow.
 
Oh the wine :D Our outside decs go up tomorrow, tree on Wednesday. I have been shopping today to Newcastle with hubby and daughter we went to tgi s for lunch syned and had burger and chips. Daughter got a dress for her Christmas parties and lovely fake leather biker jacket that I think I like more than her!! We got a couple of presis and I think we are 80% there which is good for us, need wrapping paper and gift cards. I will sort out my cards this week. Its hard work isn't it! Thankfully work (fingers crossed) shouldn't be too busy the next few weeks. ..... but then I have tempted fate :rolleyes:
almost forgot. I ordered two tops for from Debenham s on line last night so hope theg fit the bill. Will try and manage with trousers for the time being :)

Sounds like you've had a pretty productive day Geordie :D. Amazing how much there is to do for Xmas hey. We picked up some cards today and Xmas Decs have gone up. Hubby will do the outside lights in Tues as he has a day off then. I plan on getting the cards written and off in the post this week. Need to sort some pressie bits. It always comes together in the end hey.
 
Welcome back Cookie! Well WI this morning and put on a pound, but to be honest I am happy with this as had a bad week, don't know why just keep putting it down to it being cold and the time of year. However, need to keep in control over the next few weeks.
Out for lunch today with a friend I used to work with who I haven't seen for a while, I was meant to meet her last month but was way too busy at work to take time out during the day. Then tonight we are going out for a curry, Chris , Charlotte and I. Our friend who are Mayor and Mayoress are having a charity night at a local restuarant, looking forward to it. Decs go up tomorrow, hubby is off so he can put up the lights outside. I will post some pics when done!!! Have a great day everyone x
