Oops - have I jumped in and answered the wrong question? Sorry!

The gnome - yep - unfortunatley I still kind of have the shape for it! LOL! :D

The chicken fillet was one of my bargain buys from the Bernard Matthews shop - quite a good plateful of comfort food with wedges and baked beans!

I'm not a Teacher - I'm a Learning Support Assistant for special needs pupils, so I get to do a bit of most subjects!

Oh that's cool. In Ireland, if you're in learning support you usually only get to do English maths and sometimes a bit of Gaeilge.

Over here the SEN kids have a 'statement' which specifies how many hours a week support they get. The support is usually geared up to the subjects they will struggle the most with, and with the focus on the core subjects like English, Maths and Sciences, but I also get to do Cookery ('Food Technology' to give it its proper name!) Resistant Materials, Art, Textiles, Music, Geography, History, RE, PHSE, IT, Drama and Languages, and supporting the sixth form pupils with things like improving their organisational skills, so it's pretty varied! I'm in a high school with an associated sixth form college.

Wow that's brilliant. Much more variety than our LS get.
 
... and the scales today say .... 14st 10.5lbs, so that's another pound gone this week. :) Only 1.5lbs to go to get to 40lbs off in total, then another 2lbs after that to get to 3st off, so I should be able to do one, or hopefully both of those by Christmas! :fingerscrossed:

Wow...that is really impressive. What a milestone to reach! I'll be keeping my fingers crossed for you next week that you get those 2lbs. Make sure you or your OH have a really great treat planned when you reach that goal :)
 
Thanks Em, Libby and Lisa. I have to say that I really don't think I could have done it without this forum. Still a way to go, but I WILL get there! :)

Quite a successful day today - I have a new batch of yogurt cooking in a flask in the airing cupboard - this time it should be greek style with coconut! Hubs serviced and cleaned my sewing machine and it is working like a dream again. To be fair to the poor thing, (the sewing machine, not the hubs! ;) ) the instructions do say oil it weekly, but I don't think it has ever been done, so fair enough it had got a bit noisy and temperamental! I have a lot of little sewing jobs I want to get done - making up cushion covers and curtains, and also going to take in a few pairs of work trousers to see if I can get a bit more wear out of them. I've got nothing to lose, as I can't wear them at all at the moment (well, not without getting done for indecent exposure!!! :D ) so it's worth a try. Got three loads of washing done and went for a walk around 7.00 o'clock, before settling down to watch the X Factor and Bomb Girls with pizza!

Sounds like you had a good day and your food sounds really yum for only 36pp.

I hate that about clothes not fitting. It is a great feeling, don't get me wrong! But such a pain when you can't sew and don't have a lot of money because you're buying decent food.

Most of my trousers are hanging at the hips and gaping at the knees and my tops have a big space where my belly used to go :D :D

Aw, am sure you would've made it without us but we'd miss you far too much MW! xx

Hope you enjoyed your pizza with x factor, sounds lush! ;)

Glad you had a nice day.. sewing.. one of the womanly duties I refuse to pursue lol :p Honestly, I just have to look at a sewing machine for it to break!

Have an equally pleasant day tomorrow! :)

Haha to breaking the sewing machine... Hmmmm, actually mine really started playing up around the time I joined the forum! It wasn't your anti-sewing vibes coming through cyber space was it Libby? LOL ;)

I know what you mean about the clothes! I had a few trips round our local second hand stores in the summer to get some things as I really resent paying a lot of money when I KNOW :cool: that I won't be wearing them for too long! I've roughly tacked one pair of trousers with the new leg shape and they look good, so will be sewing them up tomorrow. I found that more people comment on how much I've lost when I'm wearing narrower leg trousers, so I've taken them in all the way down to make the legs quite a bit thinner and more flattering too. Yes I feel your pain on the top problem... I'm busty, so a lot of my tops now have the 'smock' look, as they are dropping straight down from my boobs, without the stomach filling the gap!

I have the exact same problem! Even with my weight still have a really disproportionate chest!
