    KPC - Nope, i'm at Manchester Uni, got loads of friends who are at leeds/ leeds met/ leeds trinity though!

    It's a Rocky Horror theme at the pub where I work tonight - in costume. Normally i'd do anything to avoid it, but I'm going to bite the bullet and dress to impress. SO black corset and shorts, fishnets and heels it is. Going to feel huuuuge next to the other girls who work there, but i'll try to keep smiling.

    Meant to get to the gym this week but just haven't found the [STRIKE]time[/STRIKE] motivation. Working in a pub is fairly stressful and busy, so i'm sure i burn some calories there.

    Oh and I was wondering, reading back over some posts, what do people mean by 'green days'? I'm not on a specific diet, just trying to eat healthily, so any advice would be greatly appreciated!

    Hugs to eevryone who needs them!

    Hi Carol enjoy the Rocky Horror night! I'm sure you will be fine :D, the red and green days refer to Slimming World, red days are protein based (so all meat is free for instance) and green days are veg and carb based (so sixteen pounds of pasta anyone :eek::rotfl:) or so I believe!
    Do not meddle in the affairs of Dragons, for thou art crunchy and good with catsup :D

    Hi all :wave:

    I haven't been checking in very often as I'm spending all my time listing clothes on e-bay - I can't believe how long it's taking!

    I received my swap box parcel today and I'm looking forward to opening it next week. :D I haven't done my shopping yet, but will probably get it done tomorrow.

    Tagz - well done for losing weight on holiday, that's a real achievement. What do you put it down to? What did you think of Malta? I lived there for three years from the age of 11 and have fond memories.

    Bails - I did the chart this week while Grannynise is on holiday. She's taking it over again for November.

    Right, better get back to e-bay :rolleyes:

    Enjoy Halloween!

    Hi Lois

    I'm actually half Maltese so go over quite often. I've got a place over there now and went there to get it ready for when we go over in Easter. I grew up in the middle of the White City in London with the very exotic surname of Zerafa - I was last in the queue for everything!:D
    I would if I could but I can't so I won't!
  • you can't wear a corset without bosoms carol - hope you enjoyed the experience. I went out as a saloon girl this year - the pics are on my facebook page. I was quite dreading it, but actually, i felt amazing. Didn't feel selfconscious or anything at all. Of course that may have been the lack of oxygen in my bloodstream - it was quite a tight corset, especially once my costumier friend had laced me in.
  • Ooh received my swap box today:j :j . Wonderfully exciting:D
    I try to take one day at a time, but sometimes several days attack me at once

    Hey all, just a quick one to show you my vampire costume for the Halloween party I went to last night. Good fun!

    A couple of little points, the hair is not mine, mine is short and blonde! The top is a size 16 and the skirt is size 14!! :D I would never have worn this when I was bigger, losing weight has given me so much more confidence!! :D
