Its 15 days until I go.... oh wow thats just over two weeks that we've got to move some more of this weight Karen! Im realistically aiming for 5 pounds in the next two weeks you? x

i don't go until the 28th august, but i don't count down the days, just the days i have to work! lol

i still have 4 weigh-ins to go, including this week! will try and lose as much as possible, but i definately want to get my 2.5 stone award and only have to lose 5lbs to get it

 

[rainbow]

You'll do that for sure if you keep going like you have been! x

 

[Taz]

There's enough time and you know you can do it!

 

[mod-karen79]

i hope so - holiday is too close to even contemplate falling off the wagon!

i'd really like to get past the 2.5 stone mark, so that if i gain on holiday i have a few pounds spare!

i had some clothes delivered from bon prix this morning - a dress and 3 pairs of leggings. the only thing i'm keeping is 1 pair of leggings! lol - this holiday clothes malarky is doing my head in! i'm off friday so will have a massive sort out of my clothes - i'll probably find clothes i forgot i have!

are you all ready to go rainbow?

 

[mod-karen79]

I have got 2 and a half weeks til I have 2 weeks off but I don't have any holidays planned yet. We might go camping somewhere for a few days though

i love camping - where are you going to go?

i'm going camping fri-mon on august bank holiday going to the isle of wight scooter rally.

 

[Taz]

We haven't decided yet, we will probably just pack up the car and go somewhere and find a site to pitch in!

 

[mod-karen79]

you're very lucky - you've got loads of lovely countryside around bristol area.

 

[Taz]

Well Somerset is on the doorstep but we will go a bit further afield than that. Mr Taz has mentioned Blackpool but we'll see!

oh god! i love blackpool! sod the south of france....can i come with you? lol

i used to holiday in blackpool loads as a kid and i loved every minute of it

 

[Taz]

I've never been there!

 

[rainbow]

.............. Ive been to Blackpool and erm, cant say I love it! Although dont worry cos I dont like Space Raiders or Camping, so Im the odd one out of us three! xxx

 

[mod-karen79]

you'll love it or hate it! it's one of those places.

because i went there loads as a kid i have loads of great memories, so when i go as an adult i still get butterflies in my stomach when i go there. i took a friend a few years ago and thought she would hate it as she can be quite stuck up, but she loved it and became obsessed with the pleasure beach.

 

[Taz]

Well you said it Rainbow! Ha ha!

I do get the feeling I'm not going to love it. I guess I'm expecting it to be a little like Weston Super Mare which I am not at all impressed with! Ha ha. But I can't really say that til I've been there

 

[mod-karen79]

it's better than weston-super-mare

 

[rainbow]

Never been to WSM - so cant compare!

Must have missed your question bout holiday clothes last night - yup am pretty sorted, got enough shorts, day time skirts and evening skirts, two dresses, couple of pairs of linen trousers, some vests for day time, and some vests for night time, but could prob do with a few more vests. The problem is I have some 16 vests that fit fine (and then some that dont fit - mainly the Next ones that dont fit, but Nexts 16 bottoms do- raaagghh) and I dont wanna buy anymore incase they'll fit by the time I go away. So, Im going to leave it until a bit nearer to when we go......... which is two weeks today!
What was wrong with the dress and leggings that your sending back?! xxx

 

[mod-karen79]

the dress it a bit tight around my belly and it didn't look as nice as it did on their website. the leggings are just vile! lol ...they were a 2 pack, but i don't like them. i'm keeping another pair of leggings which fit nicely.

Thats the only prob bout buying from websites and catalogues, I generally dont buy from then as I had a bad experience with Simply Be! x

they're simply crap aren't they?

i've just had an order through from them this morning. their sizing is shot to bits!

i made an order for £170 and only keeping £90 worth of the stuff.

got a nice dress...that actually fits!

here's the link to it, as i can't post a pic of it http://www.simplybe.co.uk/productcache/DAL/BO7400/AB719AB.html.gz

i tried getting some bras but they're massive! i was a 46D and i'm now a 44C, but the cups are huge on the bras i ordered. another one fitted though!

 

[Eddie]

wow, thats a stunning dress, is it for your hols - you'll wow all those french men!

 

[rainbow]

Thats gorgeous Karen - we'll be expecting photos of you in it!

I bought a few bits today, a cream vest and black shorts from DPs and then three black vests and a beach dress from Matalan - nothing too wowy, but all are ideal for holiday xxx
