Plan is to lose a stone, current weight is 11st 4lbs so target is 10st 4lbs

Hey shoegal!

Right, first things first..... 11stone 4!?!??! i thought you said you were overweight??? unless you are 4' 2" i doubt you are as bad as you think you are.... I'd love to see a picture of you, so we can get an ideaof how lovely you really are, cause i think judging by those stats, you are hard on yerself.....!

As for internet dating... i had this conversation with Buffy last week... it depends on where you live and the density of potentials in your area.... if there are too many then it just gets too impossible to find anyone normal and decent among the dross....

As long as you're up front about yourself and don't go lying about who you are and how you look, then there can't be much to worry about...

I certainly recommend it off the back of my experience so far with golferman...... there were others in emails n stuff but i can only concentrate on 1 bloke at a time!! else i get confused!

i don't have any experience of chat rooms as a place to meet people but i do think that it is a good place to meet folks... again you need to be up front.

I've not gone back thru your diary but i will certainly be keeping up from now on honey........

Thanks Maz :A

No, I am 5'4" :rotfl::rotfl:not huge l know but l have a wardrobe full of clothes that prove l used to be slimmer No pics I'm afraid - no camera and no techie even if l had one

I know what you mean about the dating stuff Think, at the moment, l just want to concentrate on me, get some cofidence back - and do some serious debt busting :eek:

Feel free to nag me - l am all about plans rather than results

Sounds like a fab plan and 7 weeks isn't too long to be doing it for.

I've been quite good so far this week on spending. I'm living off my Abel & Cole box plus whatever bits and bobs i've got in the freezer. I did buy a few things in Sainsburys earlier in the week but nothing much.

but I think my lack of spending is down to not going out......hmmmm...

Oh dear!

Good luck with the plan and keep us updated!

I am relying on a socially quiet September to get me back on track moneywise, August has been a fun month - but soooooooooo expensive :eek:
