I lurrrrrrrve cream eggs...

When I was about 15 or 16 my mum used to buy me a pack of 18 for Easter :eek:

The thing is I could scoff well over half of them in the morning, and still have plenty of room for Sunday dinner. The rest would be gone by the end of the day.

Oh to be a youngster again. If I tried that now, I'd probably need to move into the gym permanently...:o

HI all
tea earlly here too - trying to watch a a bit of a dvd (House series 1) without wine - very very very odd.

I want to retrain myself without losing my life!! I wonder if I can make it through the dvd if I can maybe be relaxed enough to do work later.

Normally its stressy day - glass wine, dvd - snoring

AM now trying this as - dvd - no snoring - work later - a bit relaxed

Also locked purse at work again - just in case - pathetic huh!

Funny I had tea early today too, what on earth is going on...?

And I'm dying for choccie but I gave it up for lent (really craving some!) boo hoo!

Good idea to lock purse away Fay if it works for you - when I go back to work after my whiplash heals a little more, I am thinking about leaving my purse at home to stop me spending during my lunch break at the massive Mr T's next door.

Definately AF for me today making 3 now.

Housemate checking in Mad Hatters AF House- 3 days done twenty one to go!

Hiya Fedup - hope you get back to work soon.

Yeah the purse thing - I discovered ages ago if I don't have it - I can't use it and its a hassle to go and get it - so the moment has passed.

All quiet in the house here - we never eat this early !!!!!!

stroppy

Aaaaarrggghhhh ......

Everybodys gone out tonight.....

The fags are calling my name loudly followed by the wine also shouting me......

Aaaaaarrrggghhhh......

HELP :eek:

WB, can totally sympathise about DD, I've got one who's almost 17 and thinks she owns the place, in fact has done for the last 5 years :eek: it's so tiring. Her and OH are still not talking which is making it worse.

Well done Betty, hope you can abstain another day (if you want to that is)

Did I hear someone mention creme eggs? :EasterBun I'm dying for choklit, just eaten my dinner which has been cooking since 7am this morning in the slow cooker, ridiculously early for dinner for me too WB, usually have it about 9pm!! So now I've eaten, I feel I'm at a loose end

Where's that choklit??!

Hi Jo

I can relate to the teen thing....but, I can now say that it does get better - honest ! My son will be 21 this year and he is almost completely changed. Thoughtful, kind, polite, considerate - all the things that you would never use in the same sentance as 'teenager' :rotfl:

Can I ask for all this choklit talk to stop please - I have my WW weigh-in in the morning and I lurrve choklit. :T

Hi again all,

NTC can you put me down for day 3 please. Surprisingly have found it harder this evening. Busy in work then came home, made tea and went shopping (avoiding alcohol aisle of course:D ). When i got home all i could think about was pouring myself a large glass of wine and sitting in front of the telly - my usual pose. Didn't give in though made a cup of tea instead, the trouble with that is everytime i have a cuppa i have to have biscuits with it. Cant see me losing much weight doing this but should save a lot of money:j Aiming to stay off until Friday evening as i have allowed myself each Friday, St Patricks Day and a floating day - well that's the plan:rotfl: Good luck everyone else. Nobody said it would be easy. x
