[hastalavegan]

Thanks CD!!

Thanks EF! Glad the dentist was okay and I hope you have a great time out with your friend tonight!

 

[Eternalflame]

Thanks CD and Hasta. Think I'll opt to have it taken out in hospital CD, seems like its the best route and although i'll still be anxious, i'll be a lot happier knowing they do that all the time as well.

Car broke down once again last night... started up after half hour, so had a service this morning and touch woood, its fine . Off to drop my son at the statio now so he can get his oyster card tapped in and money can be refunded. Then shopping and WI later. Expecting a STS or half pound off or on, lol..

Hope everyone is ok xxxx

 

[Eternalflame]

OMG.. hold that last thought. Car broke down again, at a set of lights in the middle of Upminster, how embarassing did I feel!!! Nice man pushed me to the side of the road,breakdown took 1.5 hrs. Then it started, but got followed back to service station. Thinks it could now be a dodgy battery(surprise - new one last week!! ), ignition barrel, at worse.. starter motor. Looks like it'll be big bucks! Hey Ho.. its off to the shopping centre I go ... on a bus!! How I miss my car sooooo...

 

[constantlydizzy]

oooooh no EF....not the best weather for a car to breakdown

Well Im officially organised for my holiday now (I say officially in the loosest sense - OH thinks im sorted but I'm sure I'l remember something I need to buy lol)

Found some lovely linen shorts from next..... just hoping they arrive in time - but backup plan B was a twin pack navy/stone from VERY £20 (which aren't exactly what I wanted) but will do the job for the trip to the crocodile park and turtle beach if its a bit mucky and they have just come today so thats pretty fab.....oh and some vest tops for £2.50 - bargain!

Just keeping a beady eye on the weather now as it looks like the white stuff is heading up our way from tonight & all next week - hoping manchester Airport (and the journey there) isnt disrupted on the 6th Dec at 4 in the morning

Waiting to hear if I can get to WI tonight my usual lift isnt going tonight, and OH may not get back in time as its snowed in north Yorks (theyre working beyond that so the drive this morn was pretty bad he said) so hey ho - may have to wait til next week to see If I got my 2st shiney in time for my Hols

I'l let you know

Hello all. I'm back from the sun!

Not exactly browner, but certainly redder. It can look brown in some lights, but it's red really.

Still catching up on all the postings, but it seems it's been a pretty quiet week. What's up all? Can't cope without me???

 

[hastalavegan]

Yaaaay! Welcome back Jim!!!!

Nice to see you're back on Minis. Missed you lots

 

[Monkey_Monkey_Underpants]

Thanks, Veg. I've missed you all too.

(Except possibly the sneaky people who post 6lb weight losses behind my back...)

 

[hastalavegan]

BEHIND YOUR BACK?!

How dare you!!

No doubt I will be putting it all back on this evening. I have been invited to thanksgiving with my American friends. I will be getting very drunk and eating some fatty foods too

 

[lurverick]

OOOOOO have a lovely time vegan

 

[Monkey_Monkey_Underpants]

Hellllooooooooooooooooooooooooo?

Where is everyone??

It's horribly quiet in the office today, I've got far too much work to do, and don't want to do any of it. :sigh: So I thought I'd see what was what on here.

And...

...

Nada.
Zilch.
Rien.
Zip.
Nuffink.
:cry:

Come on, people. Where are all the supporty, cheery-up posts?

Well:

I hope your car's still surviving, EF.
Hope you had a good Thanksgiving, Veg (or if it's THAT good, hope you're still having it!)
Did you make it to WI, Dizz? Hope you're ok in all that weather.
How was it at the doc, Pesty? Did you learn anything helpful?

I suppose I'd better get back to work then. I'll have to hope there's a little bit more life on here later on.

Hello Peeps

Never made WI last night OH took forever to get back as its pretty bad thru Higher north yorks and beyond - where he has to travel.....but we have nothing here as yet (but its forecast to come :sigh I text my consultant to tell her I was gonna be a no show, and by the time she read my text it was too late but she could have sent her husband for me Oh the joys of being deaf and not being able to use the phone :cry:

still.... we have a plan for the future - text her, then ring her phone til she hangs up on me then she gets my message

9 sleeps til my holibobs....I put on my sad face last night and made OH feel sorry for me about not going to WI and he has got the suitcase down so I can start filling it LMAO....this is a major achievement in our relationship He has a strict rule of NO packing until the day of travel to prevent me taking too much (he does have a point seeing he is the one carrying everything )

Right off to do something constructive.....like wax my legs and empty the dishwasher

Have fun all, Il be back in a bit x x

 

[lurverick]

Hellloooooooooooo! i am here! here with a very full tummy as my wonderful hubby just made a lovely syn free spagetti carbonara...very yum,very filling!!

ooo CD not long until that holibobs now,its come around very quickly-bet you cant wait.

JIM....hope work isnt going toooooooo badly and you are getting through that to-do pile.

 

[ronniejacobs]

hi welcome back hon, i maintained this week am pleased with that how is everyone?

 

[constantlydizzy]

Heck has everyone been caught in a big snowdrift somewhere

sure is quiet in here * shuffles out quietly to face the mountain of ironing :sigh:*

 

[MadameLaMinx]

Evening all! Just been on a day trip to Harrogate with my Mumsy to a knitting and stitching fair. Syn wise it was an unmitigated disaster - but I don't care because I enjoyed every last one of them. Not looking at any sort of a loss this week, I don't think. Would be a miracle if one occured, frankly, although much of the week has been on plan.

May embark on a red fish week this week.

Sorry if you haven't seen much of me- hope I will be around a bit more this week. Xx

 

[ronniejacobs]

hi all hope you are all well
had the plumber round yesterday to fix a leaky pipe but it appears i have paid him to put a new pipe in and give me a new leak now in my bath not impressed. Texted him at half ten last night apologising for the late text to get a reply this morning saying will call you and dont think it warrented a late text.
grrr its not his bath thats leaking is it!!!!!

 

[pesty]

Morning all!!

So went to the docs and im having a blood test tomoz, im on tablets, having my implanon removed and a coil fitted
Im not too hopeful for weigh in due to food fairies and toilet fairies miss communication lol.

EF, i hope all is sorted with your car???

Ronnie, well done on the STS, sorry about the leaky bath!! I dont think 10:30 is particularly late!! Although i was in bed at 9:00 last night haha.

MLM, im glad you enjoyed the fair!! Was there lots of yummy cakes and things? Oooooo Im a bit jealous lol.

Hasta, good to hear the carbonara was nice, ive always wanted to try and cook it but im not very good with 'creamy' SW foods!! lol

Hey Jim! Glad to see you back!! It has been very quiet on here!!

Good luck to all those weighin today!! xxx

 

[Monkey_Monkey_Underpants]

Morning world.

Sorry nobody was around at the weekend, Dizzy - it was even quieter than Friday, I think! I'm here now. And will probly be around much of today cos I've got too much work that I need to avoid!

I'm glad something made the textile thingy bearable, Minxster - even if it was only eating!

Sorry about the leaks, Ronnie. I think texting is justified if he's caused you a problem.

And glad you're back and ok, Pesty. I hope that the changes the doc has made will make things a bit better for you.

Is that everything for everyone? Think so.

Good luck to the Monday weighers. My sneaky Monday morning peek is giving me quite good news, but I'm not trusting it!

See you later...

 

[constantlydizzy]

Hi All

Hope you Monday Weighers make it thru the snow! and have mighty pleasing results from the scales

Catch up with you all shortly

 

[Eternalflame]

Hello my lovely friends

Hope you are well. CD, Pesty, Ronnie, Sarah, Minxy..

Pesty, really sorry to hear you've not been good honey, hope things start to get better especially after the implant is out too.

Sarah, hope your WI is a good one

Ronnie, hope the plumbing gets sorted honey.

Minxy, as long as you enjoyed yourself at the weekend, thats all that counts. You are at Target so going up a lb or 2 isn't going to do damage as you are so focussed, you'll get it back off again.

Spent the weekend in London, was whisked off to Oxford Circus on Sat, picked up in a private car.. OH met me there and then took me to an Italian Restaurant and then Comedy club, we finished the night in a cocktail bar. Sunday, room service was delivered to the room, sooo much food, so diet went right out of the window!! Then we went to Hyde Park, where there was a Winter Wonderland, and German Christmas Markets, walked about sipping Mulled wine and then finished the afternoon at China Town in a yummy restaurant. Could not believe it all... was stunned, suprised and also shocked as things have been far from good. But last couple of weeks have improved and think he has made a big effort.

Anyway, thursday's WI was 1lb on . I did expect it though and now need to get motivated to get that off. more eves out planned this week, so am going to have to try my hardest to maintain for now and really work hard next week, with no eves out planned it will be much easier.

Sorry not been on much, but with Friday in norwich all day and also my car was off the road, ive been so busy. Car, thankfully, touch wood.. is now fine. Took £350.00 to be fine though. But I do need it for work, so i couldn't not do it.

Beef stew in slow cooker this morning, so am looking forward to it.

Big hugs and good luck with WI's tonight xxx
