Hi OTW
what a great post, I could have written it myself...so true! I was shopping last week and was given the total at the checkout and was shocked, i thought a mistake had been made ...because it was a LOT less than it 'used to be'. As you say, my trolley was pizza, crisps, biscuits, chips, nuts, fizzy juice etc etc FREE....so that explains it!
I too got addicted to lucozade, i'd have a small bottle with lunch, then another 2 or 3 later in the day, i'd graze on crisps throughout the day, even after breakfast, have my large meals, then a wee takeaway couple of times a week....not forgetting finishing off my wee boy's leftovers at dinner-time...oooh the shame , no wonder I reached 21st 5 I've had to work really hard at adjusting my lifestyle, but most of it, if not all, was just habit
All the cash you are now saving, putting into an account, and treat yourself monthly, new clothes, hairstyle, trendy bag, shoes etc. I envy you being able to wear heels, i loved my heels, but broke my ankle badly 9 years ago, whilst wearing flats!!!! and i can't wear high heels now :cry: just a little heel..but no sexy skyscraper heels for me these days!
I've started knitting you a little mini dress for christmas!!! ...I'm thinking size 10/12?
oooh I'd love to be size 16 on top..or anywhere! I'm more apple shaped ...but too big for my own good on top! I was a 28 in feb :cry:but have ordered 24 in new clothes...oooh errr ...crikey! I hope they fit???? I believe with a 3 stone loss, I 'should' have dropped 3 sizes, but not taking chances, just praying they are not tight!!!!!
Your food looks yummy. I'm a soup lover too, and have got a pot of lentil and carrot prepared and bubbling away as I type..smells delish!
Have a great day!
