TEAM 4 restart - Moving Mountains

[babycake]

KNACKERED but probably for the best that i'm up and moving. i could quite easily brought the baby into my bed and snoozed. at least this way i might actually do some cleaning. i've been working so much recently i've not had the energy to flick the duster let alone use the vacume cleaner.
I'm glad that your mom is doing better. i think sometimes its harder for us as adults to see our moms in pain. We have to kinda become the parents for a while ( i remember when my mom and pops split, mom couldn't even cope paying a phone bill!!!)

I bet your bridesmaid dress is gonna look stunning and you future SIL will wish she was you. try and get some pics to post....i'm a big romantic at heart and love weddings.

i've found out whats wrong with my laptop. the baby has been pulling the internet dongle out and chewing on it. DS 1 (the 9 yearold) has been drying it off and plugging it back in. its a wonder its working today lol

lol bless kids eh?

Know thew feeling on the housework front hun, i get soo tired i never have the energy lately. I have to force myself and make myself think it will help with the weight/inch loss. I do find if i blast some music it gets me motivated a bit more but cant do that at times as kids argue over watching their programmes lol

Im gonna try and get some pics of the dress but some shops are funny about taking pics unless you buy the dress. Ill see wot i can do
Do you have any plans today hun? xxx

 

[babycake]

hey Kel - any chance you can explain the code in the challenge thread?????? and yes i really am that dumb!!!!

 

[Dione]

how funny i was just about to ask the same question? i dont get it either xxx
Whats this challenge i have read about? not sure if ive missed some posts xxx

 

[babycake]

plans - not really. i feel the need to purge sky plus and watch the man u/ man city match this afternoon. the gruesome twosome are entertaining each other. i did fancy shopping but checked my bank account and the computer says NO. I finally paid off my credit card yesterday and i've left myself super skint until payday...but it was worth it.

Just take the photo's if they say anything say you need them for comparing the colours with the flowers ect. it worked for us when i was a bridesmaid a couple of years ago. I hope your experience in dress shops is better then mine xoxox

 

[babycake]

its the weekly WI challenge thread for posting your teams losses. i really dont get the stars and numbers thing!!! i am useless at anything that isn't work related!!

 

[babycake]

oh i just thought. kel worked out that if we loose 30lbs between us over the next 2 weeks then our combined weight will be below 1000lbs. so she set us the challenge.

Elay must be having fun !!!!!! she hasn't surfaced yet this morning.
xoxox

 

[Dione]

oh i see, wicked im up for the challenge Im thinking of changing my goal to 9 1/2 stone but not sure what do you think?

 

[babycake]

Possibly, why not aim for the 10 in the short term then re assess

 

[kellymundy]

Morning guys aren't we a chatty lot this morning!
The weight loss thread is why we are a team (well that's what it was originally for and why I get so peeved when someone just ups and leaves the team with no notice). Basically each week each team is meant to submit their team losses and say who their biggest loser for the week is (Dione this week you are a BIG loser!). The stars indicate which weeks of the year we won the challenge and the other colour stars are for when we have had the biggest loser!
I'm not just being nosey about your weight losses (although don't get me wrong I am very nosey!), I actually need them in order for us to be part of the challenge.
Did I explain that ok?
It's 34lbs in 2 weeks by the way to get us to 1000lbs combined...up for it Dione?

 

[babycake]

cheers kel. for some strange reason i thought that the stars were us lol. i did say i was dumb so which colour is which????? and yes i am blonde
xoxox

 

[kellymundy]

I believe the yellow is team results and the purple in biggest loser.

 

[babycake]

ta kel........it makes so much sense now.

 

[cherylxx]

good afternoon ladies ,
oh baby u really made me chuckle with ur alarm clock antics. so easy to do. lol.
my throat is feeling much better today so i guess it was just a short lived thing
i know i shouldnt scale hop but i cant help it. scales are saying ive only lost 2lbs since tuesday. i only have one more day to improve on that. how pathetic.
wish my body would allow itself to get realigned with this diet. i think my body needs to be aware that i am NOT quitting no matter what

 

[babycake]

Dont worry cheryl it will sort itself out. i'm glad your throat is feeling better.

xoxox

 

[kellymundy]

Is it bad that I've only just got dressed???

 

[babycake]

nope. is it bad that i'm still on the computer staring at the dust in the living room?

 

[kellymundy]

At least if someone burgles you you'll have finger prints without the cops having to dust for them!

 

[babycake]

very true......I need a detective to find anything in this house anyway, i need someone to break in and clean for me lol

 

[Dione]

Well i am as happy as a pig in doo doo!!! Went bridesmaid dress shopping and i tried on about 7 dresses and guess what....... I fit into a size 10!!!! I was so amazed as i said there was no way i could get into it. I felt so amazing and my future sister in law was in tears with how different i looked (havent seen her for 1 month) she got all emotional bless her. I took a pic and will put it on here as noone from the wedding goes on this site. Just wish i could show it to the world lol

Behonest though does it look too tight? The only worrying thing is they dont get married until Aug 2011 so i will have to maintain for 2 years. She did say she can order it in a 12 but i said NO as i want it to be my motivational tool. What do you guys think?
