    Just waiting for a lady rto turn up to do a medical for my new life insurance. I have to do a urine sample and I forgot to go for a wee at lunchtime at work and by the time I remembered I thought I'd better not go in case I couldn't go again when she gets here, but now I really want to go and have my legs crossed :o:o

    Once she's been I'm going o mums, shes doing a roast dinner :o I've told her I'm on my diet but mum isn't the best when it comes to low-fat cooking :) Oh well, I'll enjoy it, have plenty of veg and then carry on again tomorrow :D

    I've pee'ed :rotfl::rotfl:

    I don't know if its a standard thing but cos I had heart problems when I was younger I always get interrogated a bit more thoroughly :p Anyway, all was fine and have had a lovely dinner at mums, dread to think of the points but I haven't had my frys chocolate cream tonight to help minimise the damage and tomorrow morning is weigh-in time :D

    Just came home from mums and am worried that I may have been caught speeding, there were 2 random policemen stood at the end of an alley (near a dodgy estate) and one was holding a video camera and was vaguely pointing it downwards at the road. Not sure if they were anything to do with road traffic, I think they were the community police type people, but not sure why they'd have a camera? Do traffic police have handheld video cameras?? Hmm, will be watching out for postie for a bit now :(

    It was weigh in this morning and I have lost 3 lbs this week :j :j I started off at 12 stone 1/2lb, and today am 11 stone 11.5lbs :D:D:D

    I had a Hypno night though, I went to bed about 11 and then ds hada mojor coughing fit at 2.30 and that left me wide awake until about 5 :( No surprise then that I feel pretty yucky this morning, I will need to make sure I stick to the eating plan today as I will be tempted to eat stodge as I'm tired :o

    10p on the scratches this morning, nothing much else to report so far :)
