Back to work tomorrow.

Evening ladies!! what a long day it's been today!! had my study day through in Glasgow today, which meant getting the bus in at 5:50am this morning! Then on the train to Glasgow, and the same coming back! I am soooooooooooooo tired after getting up so early, but it was a really good day - very informative. It was on Domestic Violence. I also met some really great girls that I speak to on a student midwife forum that I'm a member of :) Working all day tomorrow, so it'll bean early night again for me tonight!! :(

How has everyone's day been? What have you all got planned for this weekend? xxx
 
You certainly have had a loooong day Stacy 5.50am bus :(! Should imagine the subject was very interesting, nice that you knew some other people.
Have been at work today, work half day tomorrow then have managed to get cover for the afternoon so I can go to football.
We have almost finished decorating our bedroom, what was going to be a quick lick of paint turned into complete refurb! We took out fitted wardrobes only to find we could not get the skirting board or picture rail to match so had to replace all of it which meant replastering etc.Getting new carpet on Sunday and ordering new wardrobes wahoo:D
Hope you all have a good weekend:) xx
 
Hope you had a good afternoon at the football bin!!

Yes it was very interesting yesterday! Work was awful today - just very very quiet, so the time was just dragging in!! But glad to be home and reeeeeaaaally looking forward to my long lie tomorrow! :D

Hope you are all having a great weekend! xxxx

Hi girls

Just thought I'd pop in quickly and say hello as haven't been around for a few days. Hope you've all had a lovely weekend. I've been tidying the house and managed a 16 mile walk in 5 hours yesterday! It took it out of me though and couldnt do anything for the rest of the day, but got a mahoosive 13 hours sleep last night!

Have got a lot on this week so might not be around much, and baby was due yesterday so we're all waiting by the phone for news! Will check with you at some point and let you know how it's going.

Kassy - Thank you SO much for sponsoring me. I really apprecite it! :bighug:
Before I go, I mentioned a new challenge a few days ago....well I've been invited to a fancy dress party on 19th November and the theme is 1920's flapper dresses! That's about 8 weeks away and really want to lose a stone before then so going to start up a new challenge so let me know if you want to get involved and I'll sort something out.

Have a good day tomorrow and speak to you all soon xxXXxx
 
Hi you gorgeous girlies !! I have survived my first week back on cc ing and managed about 4 super duper days, then 3 with higher cals, due to various commitments, etc. Eating out is SO HARD sometimes, isn't it ??? I want to eat all the Menu !!!! Ooops !!! Haha !!

Lost 2 lbs though, so any loss is MY gain eventually, I guess !!!! Hahaha !!!

Awww, Bella30, 1920's flapper is such a SEXY look, You can definately ROCK that look !!! Are you hiring a costume, buying or making one ??? I can see you shaking your shimmy shimmy in one of those lovely tassled frocks !!! Hehe !! Sounds like a good challenge to me !!!

Have a good week everybody....I'm aiming for another 2lbs this week, so fingers crossed !!!!

Diva x
 
Well done Viva, that's great you're back on track now. I've completely lost the plot with my diet now. Have far too much to be thinking about but I have my list of things to do and slowly ticking them off! I haven't decided whether to buy or hire a dress yet. I have seen two dresses that I'm keeping tabs on, but it all depends on how well I get on with the weight loss first. The first is on Ebay and it's quite an expensive option, but as my mate said, I could wear it over xmas too so it won't be entirely wasted:

eBay - The UK's Online Marketplace

The second option is a lot cheaper and has a few accessories that comes with it, but it's quite short so not sure I have the confidence to wear it:
Glamorous Flapper - Adult Fancy Dress Costume: Amazon.co.uk: Toys & Games

I'm also going to get some long lace gloves, a head piece, boa and fake cigerette holder! Oh, er, sexy or what! lol xxXXxx
 
Nice dresses, but I think the Ebay one is lovely.....plus you will get lots of use out of it after as a party frock !!! Just add some accessories and voila !!!! I'm going to do some online window shopping this week, for some inspiration..... I want to be wearing a posh frock this Christmas !!!

Diva x
 
Hiya Girlies

Just been reading up on your posts after a few days on no minimins chit chat (roll on when I get a laptop for home or even a new phone I can use the internet with - I am getting left waaaaay behind when it comes to technology).

Bella - I agree with wor Diva, you could totally pull off the flapper girl look. That one off ebay is stunning and like you say, you could re-wear it. There are loads of other flapper style fancy dress ones on the net too if you think that fanct dressone ids a bit daring. I'll keep my eyes peeled. I'll be right with you on the challange when I get back from holidays as I will have my holiday weight to lose as its the Adonis's birthday on 7th Nov so we going away on the 11th to one of those log cabins (with a jaccuzi outside) so I'll want to feel all sexy so I can also dress up for him hahahaha. Kinky!!! So just start the challange without me and I'll join when am back. How is the move coming along? You sound chocka block again me dear.

Diva - Good on ya - back on that wagon. 2lb is great, especially as you wernt 100%. Steady away again and you'll be skinny minni before you know it. Yes, get a pish frock in mind for Xmas and hang it up on your wardrobe for thinspiration.

Stacey - How are you me dear? Did you get your mega lay in? I certianly hope so after those few busy days you had. Bet that course was dead intresting.

Bin - How was the footy? Bet you were plaesed to be back in all the action haha.

Katierose - How have you done last week. Another good loss?

I had a canny weekend although drank so much I put a days holiday in yesterday to try re-couperate. I have ran myself into the ground ad ended up with a cold. sob.

We went to a birthday bash at 3pm on Saturday so rathr than get straight on the Vod I started with taboo (must check the calorie content of that stuff) so I didnt end up drunk too quick. Then we went to th 2nd party of the day at 7.30. The Adonis's ex was there and you could tell she got the shock of her life wen she saw how much weight I'd lost (good, as it wansnt long ago she called me fat!!!!) Then I heard her slgging me off in the loo's. I just ignored it though. I still had a fab night. we went home about 1am but we stopped up till 5am chatting away. He said he has it all planned out in his head when and where he isgoping to propose to me hehehe (how exciting) but its not for a while yet. Now am curious! hahaha. I'll be on here sraight away to tell you all when he does though haha.

Well, after a day off work I am snowed under, so its a pretty short but sweet one from me but speak to you all again soon xxx
 
Hi ladies x:D
Another good loss for for me.. 5.5 pounds so its finally paying off!!
Miss K .. Sounds to me like Adonis ex is jealous!! :jelous:!! but we all know you are much prettier!! And will be waiting to hear re the proposal :)
Bella... That outfit looks fab!! The ebay one ! and your very pretty so have loads of confidence xx
Diva.. Wooh hoo well done on your loss x:D
Hope Bin & Stacey are good too

Speak soon ladies xx:D
 
Awwwww, Kassy, look and you and the adonis getting all loved up and talking about getting married! Soooo lovely! :0chacha:
I'm glad you all like the dresses, so far I'm definitely leaning more to the Ebay dress, but will update you if I find anymore! I really want to get a sexy number because I've never done 1920's dress up before so think it will be wicked! Am looking at head pieces too but all the lush ones I've seen are from America! lol Oh well, still have plenty of time to shop around.

Katie, that's FANTASTIC about your weight loss - you go girl! :party0011:

Ok, so the challenge...I'm planning on starting it on 26th September and finishing on Monday 7th November. That's 6 weeks...how does that sound for everyone? Not too short and not too long! :) I'll just carry on with it on this link so we know where we're going but, let me know if you fancy it and how much you want to lose and I'll keep a note of how we're doing.

Hope you're all ok xxXXxx
 
Hi

I agree with the others Bella the ebay dress is lovely am sure you will look fantastic:).

Aww Kassy how lovely the Adonis planning the proposal:lilkiss:, take no notice of the ex she is obviously jealous.

Wow Katierose another brilliant loss bet you are really pleased.:)

Hi Stacy, Diva and Shelski.

Am trying to find something to wear to a wedding can not find anything, getting me down now as everything I try on I feel fat old and frumpy:( The wedding is end of October.
Went to football on Sat we won! another match on Sun against Birmingham, dont think we will win, be happy with a draw.
We have got a presentation thing at work on Friday, local press etc are coming.

Speak soon xx
 
Evening ladies! Sorry I've been awol again for a couple of days - I've just been pretty busy with work and college work. Then had a pretty rough night lastnight. I just suddenly went like into a little depression and was crying in my room and stuff :cry: I'm just feeling a bit lonely, and missing having someone to cuddle up to when I feel down :( I just had a feeling that I'll never meet a guy and that I'm going to end up a lonely spinster!

Anyhooooo, that's enough of my craziness!

Bella - awesome stuff with the 16mile walk!!! That's great! I also really like the ebay dress - it's lovely :) I am up for a challenge! 6 weeks - I'll aim to lose 7lbs in 6 weeks then. So starting a week on Monday, is that right?

Kassy - I am ok thanks. I didn't really get much of a lie-in! lol I lay until around 9.30am! But it was still nice not to get up mega early! That's great that you're all loved up and talking about getting married! Very sweet that he already knows how and when it's happening!

Bin, katierose, shelski and Diva - hope you are all doing well and having a good week so far??

Anyhoo, have a good evening folks :) xxx
 
Hi girlies !! Had the urge to do some baking today, and decided to experiment with a cupcake recipe, tweaking it to be low fat, plus any leftovers are going with Mr D to work tomorrow, out of the house and away from ME!!!!!

I made caramel apple cupcakes with whipped cream cheese frosting.......mmmmmm !! The recipe called for a cup of Vegetable oil !!! Can you believe that ?? That's almost 2000 cals alone !!!! I removed that pronto and replaced it ......to save almost 1800 calories !!! Also piped the frosting on top, to use less, rather than plastering it on, haha !!! I think next time I will add more chunks of cooked apple to add a bit more omph to them. They turned out yummy....... I took a photo but haven't uploaded it yet as wasn't sure if that was a good idea.....you know...food porn !!!! Looking at recipes has me drooling, hehe, how about you guys ??

Still got the baking bug, so I think tomorrow it may be something like juicy lemoncurd cupcakes, also working on a bakewell tart like cupcake recipe for some American friends......

Diva x
 
Morning Lasses

Diva - Hahahahahaha - food porn (that really made me chuckle). Those cupcakes sound lush. I love cupcakes. Yeah, pop a piccy up so we can see what you done. Wish I has your skill and motivation to bake suck wonderful things. A lass here at work makes them and puts marshmallows in her low fat ones and they look amazing.

Stacey - Huge hugs for you -000000000- (thats a huge hug btw hehe). You maybea little emotional as you tierd out coz you have been on the go so much. Don't think like that, you are a beautiful beautiful woman and plenty men out there will adore you, but you need to adore yourself first. Get that confidence shining through and men will fall at your feet. Its all about self-belief and self esteem, so work on that and you'll feel much more confident. I believe Gok Wan when he says "its all about the confidence".

Bin - Ooooooo, whats the presentation for at work. You might be 'papped' and end up in the paper hehe. Pleased you had fun at the footy and they won. Good luck for Sundays match! Hope you have another win. You should start Bella's 6 week challange and you are bound to lose a bit for the wedding. Even get a dress one size to small that you really like for thinsperation. You can do it. And I bet you dont look frumpy. Shopping is a nightmare though if your heads not in it.

Bella - I'm defo up for the chalange but will start when I get back to work on 6th October - that that gives me a 1 month chalange. I'll set my goal when I get back from holiday but will probally aim to lose 8lb in that full month. I think mini challanges are a great way to stay focused. As the next one we do can focus on maybe exercise, rather than pounds and it keeps things fresh and exciting.

Katierose - My good god! That is fantastic woman!!!!!!! You are doing bllod amazing. I bet you can really see it now too? What have you been eating on a typical day? You still go to the gym? i wush I could do VLCD but it leads me to binge each time.

Well girls, its the TOTM for me so as you can imagine am starvin marvin all the time and feel lacking in energy. Didnt go to gym last night and instead sat on the couch watching TV and ate 1/4 litre of mint ice cream after my tea and then 2 jaffa cakes. I could have kept going but luckily we ran out of nice food hahaha. So I feel guilty as sin today and still craving junk. Ive just had my breakfast (banana and mullerlight) but ate some velvet crisps (low fat rice cracker things) straight after and they were meant for my 11am snack. Its just another one of those hungry dys. I hate these.

Its starting to get mighty cold now isnt it? I am desperate for a winter wardrobe (as I was a size 18-20 this time last year) so as soon as I get back from holiday I am going to start buying something new each week. Need a warm jacket, new trousers, etc and sracf and gloves and stuff. Especially as I have a right treck to work and back everyday. Bring on the wellies!!!!

Eeeeeee, just 1 week tomrow till my holls. Wish I could get my head into gear doet wise. Trust me to have a wobble so close to my holiday. I cant improve my body in a week really anyway, so as long as I stay the smae i'll be happy, then concerntrate on losing again when I get back.

Ive been going to the sunbeds twice a week to prep my tan so that always makes you feel better and its coming along nicley hehe. Just 12mins a week (2 x 6 min sessions). Cant wait till am lying on that beach sipping (well, downing) cocktails hehe. Ive got myself all excited again now!!!!!!

My friend is home from Spain so am off out tonight (but just gonna stick to a few vods coz up for work first thing) so gotta keep away from the pizza shops in town! Then am out with her again tomorow night. She has had a bit of a thing going with the Adonis's friend while she been home visiying so the 4 of us going pubbing tomrow and me and her gonna get ready and have a few drinks togeather like we used to when we were 17 haha. She can drink more han me and is only 7 st wet through hahaha. I best prepare for a hangover on saturday :eek:(

Well, am off to do my work but speal soon you lovley lot xxx
 
haha Kassy - that was a whopper of a post!! :D

Thanks - could really do with hugs right now! :( Felt a bit better today after a catch up with some of my old college friends having a walk around the shops, and then went for a quick lunch (Burger King - ooooooooppsssss!) I really do want to feel more confident about myself, but I just don't feel I can at the moment because I hate the way my body looks. I really need to be Gokked! :D lol

TOTM is such a horrible time for our appetites and craving foods we really shouldn't! But I do believe that we crave those foods at that time for a reason - I think those foods do help us get through the harder days during TOTM!

It really is getting cold - and dark and nights too! I had to actually put my winter coat on a couple of nights ago! :eek:

Ah I'm so jealous that you're going abroad!! I'd love to go but simply can't afford it right now - and most likely won't be able to afford it for a long time now!! lol I bet you're going to look fab on your hols :D And we want to see lots of pics when you come back! :)

Diva - those cupcakes really do sounds delicious!! I too sometimes take an urge to bake - I really enjoy it :) Nothing better than baking a cake that you can be proud of!! lol

Anyhoo, I'm working tomorrow, so better head off to bed very soon! Had college tonight so feeling pretty tired!

Night all! xxxx
