    hex loving the pic of your wood burner and miaow.

    Thanks!

    In the HHC I re-filled the WM with cushions and the throw from the playroom - splattered with porridge this morning :confused:. I have emptied the baskets in the back hall and have identified two pairs of small boys waterproofs and various thomas hats for re-housing - all age 2-3. Jumped in the bin, bagged up magazines for recycling, and put a chicken in the oven for lunch. Children have been rewarded for their efforts in the playroom, DS1 is allowed to Dyson it. It will be a sad day when he realises this is a job not a reward :p.

    SS- Toots remembers too :p
    Mrs B - I found I actually ate more with SW, but instead of living on toast I actually eat wierd things like fruit and veg. A lot of my calories came from my mate Stella (classy me) which I gave up, and replaced to a far lesser extent with dry white wine. I am also highly dependent on dolce gusto black coffee - costs more but so much nicer than instant.

    I have been on the Wii fir for the first time - I have a VERY blobby mii

    age wise though I am almost my age...

    weight erm begins with o and rhymes with cheese.

    Valli - I shouldn't fret, I am a size 10 now and it still makes me blobby and says I am overweight. Very dense bones me, my Dad got his tested and it is true.

    I'm not fretting I know I am overweight. I trhink Mrs B's challenge is the way to go. I do like SW esp green days and used to win slimmer of the week and have stickers all over my book. But I like sweet stuff too.
    Here goes for a new slim me (again)

  • I agree with Valli about not fretting... I dont think it should be a case of getting all down and miserable about it, more thinking positive to do something about it!

    Shall I start a new thread for us to keep up with then?:confused:

    Ive not done something like that before, only started one when i had a problem that needed answering... I suppose even if its only us that read it, it will be good...

    now I must charge up my wii fit battery...

    Right... ok, you've got me.... I'm in too. I don't have a wii. However I pledge :
    • No booze until my birthday ( 10th Oct ) and then I'll recommit to no booze for a month.
    • I'll walk faster with the dog, and put in an extra loop in the park.
    DH has said he'll join in too. ;)

    You're right, it was about this time last year, and we did feel much better, and we did lose weight, and we did save money.

    I feel a bit left out not having a Wii though! :rolleyes:
