Licking the Lid of Life....my esoteric diary

[I predict a diet]

Tuesday 7th Jan

Knees

Im having trouble sleeping. I've never had bony knees and I sleep in the foetal position, knees together and all tucked up. Now that's uncomfortable. I can feel BONE. Ow ow. I've had to dig out my full length body pillow and sleep with it tucked in my knees. I wasn't expecting this if I'm honest. I thought losing weight was all happy roses and skipping kittens but actually this annoys me somewhat. I have a small child ergo my sleep is precious. I do not want a reduction in the quality of the sleep I do get.

Im going to invent soft knee pads. Right where's my drawing board.....

Put that drawing board away! Somebody beat you to it!

Much like the pain of spending on smaller clothes!!

I'm gonna stop buying for a few months,sick of stuff becoming too big,I know I shouldn't complain.Save for a couple of wish list items I could never fit into.

Definitely, that strap is worth £££'s A visit to the loo in the middle of the night could be interesting!

Maybe its super absorbent?!

Cutting out the need to get out of bed?

Maybe long johns and a nappy would have the same result, I am guessing you don't have those to hand either. ...........

I'm refusing point blank to buy new clothes until I'm at target For now I'm just taking stuff in, though I do have a few bits in my wardrobe to shrink into and out of again which will help tide me over... my husband has pledged £50 for each stone I lose, so I can go on a big spending spree eventually lol

*apologies for treading on your thread..*

but Sam, and Michelle- did you get my pm responses today?
I sent them at work and was just looking on the messaging facility now. There is a green arrow which I think means I have replied, but there is nothing in my sent box?!
If not- basically- thank you both. Michelle- Sam pm'd me and I'm going to look out for them next time.

Again apologies for posting here but I don't know how to use this flipping thing apparently.
