Has anyone else found they've lost weight off odd places? My stomach has gone I know that, and my wrists seem a lot slimmer and I can definitely see more of my collarbones than I have in a long while, but my bot and thighs don't seem to be shrinking much ... :rolleyes:

I have found that my collarbones are very prominent. Its not that i have lost too much weight either im a healthy 9st 4 lbs but my collarbone looks horrid - think Victoria Beckham. Thats the only thing im not liking about having lost weight.
Oh and my boobs have shrunk, although think that bothers OH more than it does me :rotfl:

I know what you mean about loosing weight in weird places though, even though I'm not dieting I'm still loosing weight and it's all coming from the odd places! I was sat downstairs last night and my collar bones were sticking out worse than ever *shudders* I had to eat a malted milk! Good luck to everyone still on the challenge though

I quite like my 'new' collar bones actually, just as long as my breast bone doesn't start to show though my chest like all the celebs, I wouldn't like that! Nothing much to come off my boobs really, adding weight to my 'theory' that big boobs are just fat so who'd want them anyway?

My thighs always stay big no matter how much weight i lose, i always lose off my stomach first.

Just had a phonecall from OH's sister and she asked if I would be his two nieces Godmother. So sweet of them! Will be a while till the christening but thought that was so nice.

Course I have Poolie!

Aw, congrats Wendz -- Oooh, seen as a proper part of the family obviously! My friend said they'd have had OH as godfather but as we're not even living together ... they said he can be for their next one once he's a more permanent fixture. Anyway, what I'm hinting at is your birthday pressie!

God I love charity shops! I just went for a nosey as they're at the other end of town and I wanted to walk off my pasta. Was looking for some old curtains that might make a charming skirt, and came across a very lovely silky Principles dress for a fiver, which I'll wear for the christening in a couple of weeks Only thing is, I'm a bit electric and it's quite static - anyone got any tips? I normally douse clothes with hairspray but that soesn't so much take out the static as just make them really stiff!

Hehe yeah maybe his sister knows something I don't! She said the other day I am the only one of her brothers and sisters OH's that she sees as family (probably because I have been around 5 years haha). Speaking of my birthday present OH has been sending messages to my friend on Facebook about it. I only know because he said you can't look because I have a message from Carmen about your birthday present (subtle as always. Anyway interestingly she is the only one of my friends who knows my ring size. I am probably reading way too much into that... still not hopefull.

The dress sounds good Tete, bagain at a fiver! No tips on staticness though I am afraid.

ARGH. Just been reading a thread on the jobhunting board, a girl is whinging shes not getting a 28k job when all she has is some nothingy city and guilds certificates in travel and air hostesing and beauty or some such air brained things, has no experience, but she gets 1400 a month benefits so its not worth her working for less than 28k. Can I scream?! This is madness. Take my petrol off my take home wage and I don't earn 1400 a month!
