    Happy Friday everyone!

    Tis very cold and very, very frosty here!

    I lost 3.5lbs last night, so pleased with that, although it was tasting night and I think I put most of it back on - felt really full by the time I left.

    My drunken boyfriend turned up last night and I wouldn't let him in - I can't stand drunk people when I am sober, but now I am feeling guilty as it was so cold out, but why should I put up with him turning up like that and expecting me to be happy about it :confused:

  • Hey Sall,
    Re F&F,

    Thanks Bun, I now have full amount so think I shall just pay it all off?? Anyone know how this will effect credit? Im not sure if they have even registered a default, if they haven't then I would rather pay all of it off. If they have surely only paying a percentage will not make much difference, or am I completely wrong?

    Oh by the way, DH has booked his holiday off work so all systems go for May Bunny and the clan

  • Morning everyone.
    Happy Birthday SRM although you're probably in the air by now.
    Hello Tig - just in case you go back to lurking in a huff.
    Today I just feel like digging a big hole and hiding from the world but as that isn't an option onwards and upwards I go!
  • I would go for a less than F&F-why pay more if you don't have too!?
    It will still be satisfied and you'll have some money to go towards something else....


    And ooooh, I am so looking forward to May! xxxxxxx (you'll be next on my Facebook campaign)

    Morning all

    My god it's cold out there this morning....but it does look sooooo pretty all white and frosty.

    DD1 had a complete teenage hormonal grump on last night - she hates her clothes, hates her body, hates her room....blah blah blah....a hot chocolate and a cuddle sorted her out ...along with the promise of a new pair of jeans tomorrow (if we can find any)..she's so tiny, frame wise, that she only needs age 6/7 for her waist but she needs the length of age 13...nightmare when she wants proper fashion stuff.

    Still deaf in my left ear - makes me feel so dizzy and sick when I move around.....a jolly good excuse for another day of doing nothing!

    Morning all -

    Happy birthday SRM, lucky mare going to San Fran! <where is that jealous smilie anyway!>

    i was beating myself up big style last night for only losing 1.5lbs this week, despite trying really hard...

    I'm over it now, i know 9lbs in 2 weeks is good, so not going to worry too much and aim for much more next week...

    i got my measurements done too, 1" off bust (OH NO!!), 1" off waist, 1/2" off each arm and nothing off my legs, but then i have pretty muscley legs anyhow, so not carrying my fat there...

    All in all feeling more postive this morning but boy was i scunnered last night!

    Sal - you have a busy day, get cracking gal!

    Bun - what book are you buying? sex tips for girls? i don't think you need it!

    Helloooo to everyone else!
    I'm just a seething mass of contradictions....

    Morning all:hello:

    Still feeling mightily hard done by today with now being on insulin to manage the gestational diabetes (not that last night's dose has had an impact on today's fasting results:o).

    But as promised, I'm starting to find the silver lining and... I'll be having scans every fortnight now so I'll get loads of opportunities to see my daughter before she's born:j :j :j

    SRM - have a wonderful birthday and trip to SF!
    rugbymum - hope your finger gets better
    bunny - enjoy your day
    spud - hope the car sails through its MOT
    RS - have a wonderful time with your friend
    Lou - I hope 1pm brings everything you want
    Sally - I hope you manage to do what you need to do
    Tig - good luck with the car tax
    Jinky - good luck clothes shopping
    Tenmah - I'd turn away the drunken BF as well - you did the right thing!
