Your menu looks lovely, what is linguine is it pasta, never had that, sounds nice, hubby won't eat pasta so don't buy it one.

Is the number 43/105 is that how many calories you have had in the week out of the 105, if so that's a good idea, might start doing that myself hope you don't mind.

Going to make a fruit souffle omelette for tomorrow dessert only 1.5syns, have you made it.

Hi Jane,
Yes Linguine is Pasta, it's flat and wider than spaghetti, my hubby won't eat pasta as a rule either, but through trying lots of different ones we have found that he loves fresh Tagliatelle and he'll also eat Linguine, he says because it's thicker and not as snotty as the other lol
43/105 Is the amount of syns I have used so far this week so used 43 of my possible 105.
No I've not made the fruit souffle omelette, sounds nice, where would I find that recipe? xx
 
Hi everyone,
Well I had the most unexpected and most brilliant surprise this morning and it has left me with the biggest grin on my face ....
My friend from Australia sent me a parcel of Jellies, they arrived this morning, and in the same parcel she had put a lovely Aubergine coloured top in a size 22 (That's Australian 22 ...UK 20) , I thought no way will that go anywhere near me, the last time she sent me clothes they were Aussie size 32's UK 30...It only fits..now I am not kidding myself that I am a size 20..I'm not that silly, but it is so nice to know that I am also not the size 36-38 I was a few years ago and that I can get into smaller sizes now, so I am proudly walking around with my size 22 top on and the label hanging firmly out of the back, and so help anyone that tries to tuck it back in :8855:...I can't wait for the day she sends me size 12's :D xx

Are you a mind reader, my thoughts exactly and yes she is so lovely, she also put PJ's in for my two girls and for the grandkids ...the colour is one of my faves and the top has the added bonus of showing off how much my boobies are starting to go North again instead of South hahaha
And yes as soon as Malcy has finished in the garden I will get him to take a snap xx

Way to go Lily :talk017: :talk017: what a fab feeling that is :D :D proud of you. Can't wait to see a piccie xxxxxx
 
oooh I just had a thought she sent me a size 20 Aussie top in May for my birthday that's a UK size 18, I'm thinking I might at least get it on, I haven't tried it yet cos It's supposed to be my Xmas day top...I am going to go for a try on ...:fingerscrossed: These tops are the baggy kind so hopefully in the not too distant future I'll be wearing nice fitted ones in the same sizes lol xx

Thank you Jackie, it's so lovely to know that I am getting closer to my ultimate goal and I have left the 30+ sizes way behind me xx
 
Have put up the pics of my 2 tops from Australia...now as I said I am not kidding myself that I am a size 18 or 20 which would be the UK equivalents of the 2 sized tops my friend sent, but had I still been the 36-38 UK I was just a few years ago I wouldn't have got these near me and to be honest they don't look anywhere near as bad as I imagined they would...I would say going by pics of me at a similar weight years ago...I am about a 24-26 still, but hey I'm going in the right direction, so it's all good xx
