Dinkie Dawnies Dubious Diary of Downsizing, Deflation, and Debauchery

[skinnydawn]

The details I have been given is that wm bread allowance for HexB is now 60g instead of 57g.

Dawn, can you check this for me please. If that has gone down I will be mightily mad!

No that's right Bev, its 60g x
If u like, I can buy you a new book next week and bring it to the meet, or post it to you? I've already got Sarah and Mumsie one, and its no trouble x They're expensive...£10...but you get the complete starter pack as if you were a new member. Let me know if u want one x

21lb is nothing! - besides you know when most people carry their weight in their thighs, or mid-riff etc.? - well I carry mine in me gob!

Really?

Can't say I'd noticed...MUCH!

Dawn - that would be fantastic if you get me a new book. Just bring it to the meet - no need to post it though - and I'll pay you then if that's ok?

The one I refer to mostly is dated Jan 2008! I do have the one dated Jan 2010 but I find the older one easier to find things in! And there weren't that many changes to green/red plans, just the introduction of EE which I only do on very occasional days!

I heard we could only have 2 slices of ww bread now instead of 3. I didn't know about the weight. Sorry for any confusion c

Hi Bev,

Do you mean the directory which comes out once a year, and has all the syn values in?

I can certainly get one of those for you! The books I got Sarah and Mumsie are the actual packs you're given when you join, which have the rules to all the plans, the most common hexes, and the syn values of many foods.

I can get you either, or both if you want!

 

[Pommette]

Dawn - just the starter pack will be fine. The directory is no use to me really as many of the foods it gives info for aren't available here.

Brilliant news about your Mum xxxx

and Gwyn has healed superbly xxxx

Excellent...no problem then Bev x I'll get that next week and bring it on the 4th x

Me too Penny!

I actually switched to WW Danish Brown and am now pretty annoyed as to why it has changed! - I'm switching back to Warburtons 400g wholemeal - if I'm only allowed 2 slices instead of three I will go for the better bread

 

[Pommette]

I won;t be around much tonight chica so have a lovely evening with you family and at you party tomorrow!

See you in 5 weeks!

Wishing you and your lovely family a very happy new year. I hope 2012 brings lots of good memories, fun, laughter and most of all good health for you all xxx

Happy New Year to you all xxx

Thanks for the encouragement, bullying, teasing, kicks up the bum, hugs and laughs...

basically for your friendship.

It's been a difficult year, made all the more manageable by your support, so thank you x

Good health, happiness, success, and prosperity, and may all your dreams come true xxx

 

[Maximus]

That would bring tears to a glass eye Dawnie

 

[skinnydawn]

Well I mean it Steve.

2011 was without doubt the worst year of my life...yet I feel uncomfortable saying that because I'm well aware that there WERE some positives.

One of them being the fact that it's the year I lost 5 1/2 stones and reached a weight and clothes size I haven't been since I was a teenager.

Another positive is all the new friends I've made over the past year.

I don't like to name names because everyone who has spoken to me on here has become a friend, but I don't think I'm offending or surprising anyone by saying that Sarah, Gail, Penny and you have actually become my close friends who I talk to most days. And of course there's mumsie, Bev, nicki, Lynne, bexy, Laura, Lynica....I really can't mention everyone...I just hope you all know how much you all mean to me

Right! That's enough of the niceness before Sarah has a puking fit...I'm going to attempt to get out of bed and find some paracetamol for my rather delicate head...

Happy New Years Day all xxx

Too late, I'm afraid!

Oh dear. Did we over-indulge, slightly?
Tut tut.

And Happy New Year to you too.
Ready to join me in this January Challenge then, Drunken, Debauched, Dehydrated, but still Delightful Dawn?

Hi Dawn

Just wanted to wish you a Happy New Year!

I have read your diary and have been totally inspired by your approach to weight loss. You have had such a difficult year and I can relate to that as I have just had the most terrible year also.

I am going to join Slimming World when I can in the next few weeks. I may do a diary but will see how it goes.

Anyway thanks for the inspiration

Hi Dawn x

Thank you for taking the time to read my diary, and for your lovely comments x

I'm sorry to hear you've also had a bad year. The bad times really knock our self confidence and make it so easy to gain weight too.

I can't recommend sw enough, or this site.

Definitely join sw asap...it will change your life in so many ways.

And definitely start a diary on here! And let me know when u have so I can pop along to say hi!

I like the idea of another Dawnie on here too...my name gets used and abused far too often as you can see from the previous post!

Take care and Happy New Year to you xxx
