61lbs is fantastic....I went back to see my CD woman this morning - I have put 3lbs back on since i had a break and she thinks I should lose another stone - taking me to 9 stone, I am not too sure but will suck it and see...I was really pleased to see that after about 6 weeks I have managed to keep the weight off. My boobs have shrunk to nothing (I am now a 34b from a 34 D - I used to be a 34A) I can feel a boob job coming up :rotfl: (even more shallow eh!)Quality is doing something right when no one is looking - Henry Ford

Maz, sorry about the house situation. Can you still afford it att £550? lets hope the other viewer fals through... I think your way of dealing with Erin is fab. Dont try and make out that her relationship with her dad will fail. When my parents split my father wasn't a 'dad' anyways so ouur relationship just fell appart. I am sure you wont let that happen thouugh. Good luck with the conversation though, will be thinking of you :j
Yep got a nw lil kitten. I have wanted a ginger cat for years but they are either too expensive or I miss them. I found this little one yesterday morning and got him last night called him Oli. There are pics on yesterdays thread. Cant upload them again because I am on a different pc.
Whoop whoop on the weight loss btw :j0 -
Dumb cooking question here, but how do you all defrost meat? I got a load of M&S huge joints of beef a couple of months ago when they were on bogof and I chopped them in half, still a decent sized joint. Anyway, if I stick it in the fridge to defrost the stupid thing is still frozen 2 days later. My fridge isn't that cold, I have a thermometer in there which says it's the right temp. leaving meat out of the fridge to defrost can't be good though.
I take it out the freezer the night before I need it and leave it on the draining board over night (in a tub of some sort before the cats eat it) then it goes in the fridge in the morning .....maybe take it out for an hour or so before I cook it just to make sure."Start every day off with a smile and get it over with" - W.

i just don't want to paint him in a bad light, although it will be difficult... I'm going to try to dwell on the positives like her getting to spend times with him doing proper fun stuff etc....
and hopefully having a purple bedroom!
All I did with Stewart ( he was only 2 1/2 though) and Shannon ( 7 ) was say...".Mum and Dad dont love each other any more, but that doesnt mean we dont both love you, you will be able to see Dad whenever you want...and that was it basically."
To be honest Maz I dont reckon Erin will notice that much difference, given that she has commented herself on the fact you dont do things as a *family* anyway:cool:

Okay have a funny one for you...bought size 34b bra in primani with knickers attached on the hanger - so in theory 34b size - they feel a little bigger than the last pair but not huge - size on knicker label says 12/14...
Okay so there's no way they are 12/14 since I'm size 8 - biggest they can be is 8/10 (they fit but arent as snug as the other pair I have) - so is the wrong label on them or do primani really believe people with 34b boobs have size 12/14 bottoms??
Weird!

My mum slagged my dad off endlessly......told me how horrible he was etc etc..
All it did was make me protective of my dad for years. I went to see him faithfully every weekend even though my mum made it impossible for me. Years later I discovered she was right. I thought I would wait and see how long it was before he contacted me - I am still waiting nearly 20 years later. My point is if my mum had left well alone I would have seen years ago what kind of father he was.
I don't think you would ever do that Maz, but its hard to keep the feelings to yourself. I think I managed it with mine..Quality is doing something right when no one is looking - Henry Ford

I am a 34F(ish)and a size 12 bum so there's no logic to it.
And with Primani you can never be sure someone hasn't switched things around to suit themselves. I did this once with a bikini - needed the chesticle capacity up top bu not size 18 bottoms so swapped:rolleyes::p26.2.19/14.1.19: T MC 3629.26/3629.26 : VM 0% 1050/13876.59 : W 0% 100/1485 = 4409.26/18990.85 =25.17%28.1.19/28.1.19 Hubs 0% £400/£2,977 =13.44%SPC 2019 #073

I'm top heavy, I'm a 36 E and that can mean a 14/16 on top, bottom is a 12. It depends on the cut though, I can sometimes wear a 12 on top in some things, it just depends how much like a !!!!!! star I want to look.:A

oooh thanks, so it is ok to leave it out of the fridge. It won't grow listeria or any other nasty then. Thanks pooky.:A
