Hey all,

Bet beliguim was lovelly retiredlady! Did they have pumpkins outside the front door?

Yes there were! I was impressed by the halloween decorations all over the town, the lampposts had witches with brooms on, all the shops had halloween window displays and every house we saw had at least one pumpkin on the door step (not carved though) and most had halloween figurines etc. on their windowsills. Even the city gate had a ghost hanging from it :rotfl::T

Hi everyone, hope I am not intruding , I am desperatley trying to loose weight, and have joined slimming world and managed to lose 21 lbs now, but I keep falling off the wagon....in a major way.

I went out at the weekend, and thought I looked OK..maybe even alright, but just seen some pics on facebook...and I look like one of those fat russian dolls...that have smaller little dolls living inside them .

I really need to lose a minimum of 16lbs for xmas. (30lbs total)...I can not be fat for my thirtieth, I want to wear a nice dress.. hopefully I will get some motivation from here x

My memorable incident with an HR manager was when I worked as a checkout girl! My friend was halled up into the office by the HR manager who screamed at her for wearing black tights instead of skintone ones (american tan type). Fair enough they were part of the uniform but my friend was black!

I hope HE was suitably embarassed... or am I being as sexist as he/she was racist?! lol

Hi Louby - of course you're not intruding, feel free to join in the chitchat! You've done really well, 21lbs is a great achievement so don't beat yourself up about falling off the wagon - climb back on and put the slip ups behind you. We have something called the Day One club, which is like starting again with the motivation and determination you had on the day you decided to lose weight. We've all been there, it's not easy to be good all the time!

By the way, I added you to the chart last week, so don't forget to report your weight loss this week. Grannynise will be updating and posting the chart tomorrow.

Hi KPC

Just to let you know I haven't got anything yet.

1 lb loss this week.

Work have put on a free health check later this week for people who want it - might go along and have them tell me how overweight and unfit I am however I think they'll do BP etc so that's always good to get checked.

Congrats to all the losers and sts - and don't worry all the gainers - take one day at a time.
