Morning mazzers :hello:
Another early bird!! Tis Sunday morning so why on earth are we up so early?!0 -
Morning all :hello:
Eek, just had to chase a bl00dy big sparrowhawk out of the garden, after one of my birdies!!
Going to be busy cleaning today as MIL arrives tomorrow!! House is a mess & still not finished decorating so no carpet in front room/dining. Ah well, she'll just have to take us as she finds us!!
Bought some 'chill-out' pills from Home Bargains yesterday - herbal remedy - just to see if it helps with my PMT/MOTM/hormonal psycho moments!!Have to try something, it's getting beyond a joke now!!
Managed to not have wine last night :A But I did have some PimmsSeriously thinking of giving up the alcohol because, when I was reading old posts yesterday, wine seems to feature quite heavily in my 'diet'!!
Sure it contributes to my weight gain as well, calories from the wine plus I always get the munchies, so double whammy!!
Had some thin pizza last night for dinner - not very low-gi or low-carb but it did have chicken & spinach on
Happy days everyone :wave:0 -

I know I'm thick but ........what's an avatar please?
Remember I only started using the web last December!0 -
You're not thick. An avatar is a little picture of your choice that goes under your username. If you go to settings you can set it to show avatars. I haven't done this because I think it may make the page slower to load (and my computer is slow enough anyway).
You can get avatars from the net or upload your own picture if you have any saved on your computer.

OK I just did it. At the top of the page click on User CP, then Edit Options, down to Thread Display Options, check the box Show Avatars and click on Save Changes at the bottom of the page.
If you want to add your own, just Google images for 'avatars' pick one you like and save it to your computer. Then go to User CP again, Edit Avatar, click on 'Browse', this will go to your pictures folder and click on the picture you've saved. Then click on Save Changes(Well I think that's what I did!)
Good luck

Hi, I've been reading this thread with interest and been following Dr. D's plan (ish!) for a while and managed to get my weight down by 26lbs.
I saw this on Amazon and bought it in the hopes it will vary my diet a bit.

Sharlee - thankyou so much, I did it. Now I'm an old dog.\o/0
