    We are all doing a weigh in on Monday if you want to join us - or confess the wieght loss - alastripeysocks - we aren't as scientific as wieghtwatchers - and we don't offer cashback but we are free!!

    Although there is a science element to it all. :)

    I have to say the thought of coming on and saying whoops to this lot has me terrified. And my weight has gone up this week already - excuses excuses.......

    I will not eat twinks hobnobs anymore. (Honest)

    Good morning everyone, not off to a good start here today. I woke myself up during the night and couldn't get back to sleep so I am unbelievably tired already and it's only 10!

    Today I haven't got a lot to do

    • Got to go to the library to research a family member for MIL's family tree
    • Washing hokey cokey
    • Store cupboard Chicken curry for tea
    • Pack up my mum's birthday present
    LSD today as I am going to treat myself to a sausage roll in town and I might need to print some things out in the library

    Oooh thank you - I might join you;) I have subscribed, but did find a £10 off code and went through Quidco, so not too bad:o Works out a darn site cheaper than buying new clothes! just tried some jeans on and hardly any of my stuff fits, it's awful, I hate it! Refuse to buy new clothes, plus I'm going to Spain in July, so added incentive:rotfl:
    I really need to sort out a new signature!

    Good day to you fine people! :D

    Yesterday was a major bust for me, prescription, Mother's Day Card (got ripped off at M & S as it was all that open), Mother's Birthday Present. It all mounts up!

    That said, I'm alone holding the fort at work today. So that means no lunch hour and hopefully no spending either.

    Today I will / have:

    Transfer freelance earnings from PayPal to Bank Account
    Daily Clicks & Scratches
    Take some overtime home with me for the weekend
    It's my first delivery of Avon stuff tonight, so I will check the contents and back all the products up for delivering to customers tomorrow.

    Hope everyone has a frugal day!! hehehe :D

    The only thing scientific about it is the fact that one of us is SUPPOSED to be a scientist.

    And she is also being weighed:rotfl:


    Hence the 'science bit'.:D

    Then I will write up the significant difference between my weight before and after learning the method of making twinks hobnobs and its direct correlation with my wieght gain.

    And for you lot I will wear my scientists goggles whilst I weigh myself
    Piq you can hold a test tube if you like........remember to deduct it first

    All in the name of science.
