    Hello all! Not been here for ages as i've been on holiday for 3 weeks. Well, sort of a holiday - I was visiting rellies in Manchester and Ireland. Will be weighing myself tomorrow to check the damage, though I'm feeling optimistic that I've actually lost a few pounds. The relatives all eat 3 meals a day like normal people :D so I have followed suit and not snacked as much (especially in Ireland where we were miles from the nearest choc-shop).

    Alcohol consumption is another matter though :eek: :o so maybe the weigh-in won't be as happy as I anticipate!

    Will let you know tomorrow (off to read rest of the thread now!)

    Hi all,

    Tis quiet on here isn't it? They surely can't be all out sunbathing? :rolleyes:

    Still driving recklessly on the food front. I have good intentions but end up reaching for bread and butter and little else at the mo. Its so quick and convenient but plays havoc with the digestive system after a time.

    Food today (and I will try this time :o )
    Boiled egg and HM bread
    Mexican chicken filled pittas with salad
    Fruit sponge and custard (just a smidgeon because I've a fancy :p )

    Not a healthy days eating exactly but what I can cope with and will avoid a binge that I feel brewing. :rolleyes:

    Off for a quick surf before a hoard of hungry teenagers arrive :eek: and my mum (who I will never moan about again as she has been my rock these past few months. Love my mum! :D )

    Sees you all later.

  • Morning all - blimey it's like the Marie Celeste round here. Am assuming everyone is somewhere hot and sunny (as I'm not:D ).

    Not properly back in weight loss mode yet - little visitor made an appearance last night so feeling pretty grot and in need of chocolate - and when the need bites it needs to be fed:D !

    Mrs M - quick Xstitch question - I ordered a kit to do as a pressie for my parents for Xmas. When I had opened it and proceeded to sort it out I realised it is one of the pre-printed ones (lines all marked on the canvas). I have made a start but am not happy with it really - have you done one of these before and if so how did you find it! The canvas is really fine so hard to follow regular sizes to my stitches.

    Anyhoo - to work. W
