I have to go shopping over the weekend for something to wear to a family party next week - with my weight I don't think this shopping trip is going to be the best ever :rolleyes:
Grr, totally sympathise, I hate feeling like that! It really spoils clothes shopping when you don't feel your best. If I could lose 1lb a week I would be sorted by Christmas. But I can't lose 1lb a weekWell, I obviously can, but I am too lazy.:o Well done on 2lbs this week:j

It's very strange,
this quietness seems to have permeated most of the threads I read too, maybe it's a seasonal thing, after the flurry of activity in the new year when everyone is full of good intentions, now people are facing the reality of what they hope to achieve :eek: I'm lurching from week to week at the moment & the dear small person seems to be bringing home a bill for a trip every other day at the moment - over £100 this week alone
.
I've had all my new rates for rent, council tax, water bill etc & they're really not much different from last year , just a few pounds more a month which is a relief but the job situation is still quite annoying as I'm only having to do them in order to pay off the debts & sometimes it really really bores me :mad: I'm not good at doing stuff because I have to :rolleyes:0 -

I know! For example, I know I should not be sat here with a glass of wine and a bag of crisps and yet I amAnd tomorrow i will be asking myself why I did it:rolleyes:

Yes, I agree. This time of year is really dreary, I think. New Year motivation has gone, nothing much has been achieved - and summer still seems a long way off :mad: I am definately a summer person - I am just happier when it's sunny, nothing ever seems quite so badSometimes it's hard to walk in a single woman's shoes - that's why we need really special ones!Total debt @ Oct 2008: £29,226.42 Credit Card- £[STRIKE]7493.56[/STRIKE] - £7243.56Weightloss : 0/34lbs0 -

It's really strange, the only one of the threads which I read which still seems to be very active is the £100 clothes one *debates whether to make confession in that area and decides not to, will think of some loophole later* it's oddly quiet on all the others.
Think you may be right about it being seasonal, starting off with good intentions etc, but it just feels strange. There is a thread I post on where most weeks I am the only poster, they are all starting to feel like that.Pay/save £20k in 2010 £5888.75/£20,000June Mini target 0/5lbs Total 23/40Ebay profit 2010: March £207:) April £95:) May £130:) June £0 Total £432:j0 -
I agree with you both about knowing what to do but then not doing it... I'm superb at giving advice on almost anything but cant follow it myself :rolleyes:
It's a sad fact that I'm only doing daily exercise because I need to in order to earn more money, to pay off my debts. I was much happier when i used to go the gym through choice although i was paying the subscription on my CC
We do need treats occasionally though & this is the first alchocol I've had in ages, at least all the exercise is making me so tired I dont need a drink to get to sleep anymore :rolleyes:0
