Vix - I suspect you legs are the shape they are becasue of gentics, not 'fatness'. The secret is to dress to flatter - any chance you can wear a mini skirt over the leggings. And have you made it to 500?

probably! But the trouble is we are wearing knickers that say bridemaid on the !!!! so i cant really cover my !!!! up. Trouble is its not my !!!! im worried about, its the thighs!!!!! Was thinking of a tutu but they are quite expensive, unless i had ago at making one myself.

bad luck on the flapjacks BB. You shouldnt have even tried one in the first place!!

Victory, That is so me, I cannot have OH telling me what I should or shouldn't eat. It has to be my decision. But to be fair I am like that about everything - it has to be my idea.

Before my weight loss if we'd had a row I would stuff myself with chocolate bars - what on earth was that all about - duh!!!

It's nice not to be the only self confessed binger. Avoidance is my best form of defence, but I don't do it for hunger/emotional reasons etc, it is for the taste and texture - the eating experience

One technique I haven't tried yet, but might give a go is: if you fancy some chocolate eat a pickled onion and see if you still fancy chocolate - I can imagine that it would be really effective. :rotfl:

What currently works for me is: "Either you eat chocolate and stay fat or stop eating it and get slim. You can't do both, you've tried it and it doesn't work. It's simply a matter of deciding which is more important to you: being slim, attractive and feeling good about yourself - or feeling fat, lumpy and miserable. It's your choice every time." - From Only Fat People Skip Breakfast.
Missy, well done on the 3rd loss in a row :j . I didn't mention work on here before as it would have been a bit OT when it happened.

Vix, when I put on a few lbs I don't feel fat, but I don't like to see the number go up.

Tagz, OH has just posted the youtube link on a forum he posts on, they had been discussing how 'lovely' everyone is and that they never 'flame' the newbies - it was all getting very luvvy, he titled it as a link to their Annual Convention :rotfl: I loved the song and the video.

How about wearing the knickers on your head, then you could cover up your $£"£.

Vix - listen to Granny. This dissertation will not write itself and whilst it is hanging over your head you will keep being depressed by it. Sort out your working area, sit down, set a timer for 30 minutes and STAY THERE until the timer pings. By that time you will have written so much you might even feel like doing another 30 minutes. Getting started is the hardest part of anything but if you know you've only got to try for a little while at a time it will help.

(Oh dear, how obvious my work role is.)

Thanks for the PM KPC. I've got mine.

I have a PM, thanks KPC, but also a slight problem, in that I'm not going to be around on the 17th - I'll be in Cyprus from 11th to 26th. I don't mind missing out on the grand opening if it doesn't spoil it for the person buying for me.

Bottom burps just realised that I'll be in Malta for the prezzie swap opening date! Let me know what you want to do KPC - don't mind missing out on grand opening either but also don't want to spoil it for the person buying for me.
