.... I also didn't wait the recommended time for the second application but didn't want to encourage naughtiness;)...

i'm joining you guys.

been looking through my holiday snaps and i look preggers in one :eek: I feel a bit of a fraud cos i don't think i'm technically overweight for my height, but i've put on almost 2 stone in the past 4 years or so and am on a slippery slope to chubbyville :eek:

i'm not going on a diet per se, but i definately need to eat better, move more, get fit and tone up. I am currently in the middle of trying to finish of 85 reports and am desperately trying to ignore the call of the sweetie drawer

Make way for a depressed person.

The changing rooms had one mirror in front and a mirror on the side wall which you angled to see your back view. I wish I hadn't, I didn't know my back was as fat. It looks disgusting. I cant believe how I've been kidding myself on for so long. I'm seriously, seriously p*ssed off. My life is floating away from me on a sea of blubber....I'm a fun loving tart in my head but there's no way I'll ever be anything other than wallpaper in real life unless I shift this lard.

I'm going to attack the gym with renewed vigour tomorrow. Wish me luck.

Mines floated to outer Mongolia by now.

Good luck

I've all but given up pretending i'm gonna do something

Think i need to avoid the canteen in work too

Yay! Hiya Pav. Long time no see.

Welcome to our little gang (cos no point pretending, we are what we are:rotfl:)

I can't imagine your skinny malinky frame with 2 stone extra.... I think you'd still look like a skinny minx anyway.

I still have them btw, so unless you want a pointed bit up your bum, make the effort!

No, you've bloody well not. You're in a wee rut right now and that's fine, it's what happens. Eventually you'll start to feel left out and you'll move your !!!. Until then we can just talk skin tags. :rotfl:

Welcome Pav:) alias, good luck at the gym tomorrow, I will never set foot in any kind of sport place again unless its to use the cafe, so good for you for even going in the first place:T

pavlovs_dog

thank you all for the raptuous welcome. feels like home already

my goals for the next few weeks are

* eat (much) less crap, and more fruit and veg
* drink more water
* get into a sleep routine
* exercise more

going to focus on the first two this week, and ease myself in gently.

i have more padding now, i probably wouldn't feel them as much as an aside, can i just say how happy i am that your antlers live to snag another cardi :j

as for the skinny minx comment, i know if i'm honest i would be hard pressed to justify calling myself 'fat', but i'm getting increasingly alarmed at my inability to stop eating crap even though i can see the pounds starting to creep on. so it's a case of taking action now (in the hope that it will still be relatively easy to shift) rather than wait until I've gained another few stone and a lot more bad habits.

i'm currently weighing in at around 9 stone 7, when i first got together with my OH i was 7 and a half - they say love makes you fat! i want to get back to the 8 and a half / nine stone bracket. don't want to go much smaller than that for fear my boobs will disappear :eek: - i'm not exactly jordan as it is, so i'm quite happy with the boost that came from my weight gain. no ultra shock absorbing sorts bra needed for me :rotfl:

mazzers - sorry you're feeling down. tomorrow is a new (and hopefully brighter) day :kisses3:

mazzers

Morning all.

Today may be the day, but dont hold your breath.

Horrible day, cold and cloudy, altho its not raining.

Got to go t the dentist about this cap, again!
Told her it felt too 'raised' bit she said it would settle. i knew it wouldnt , and it hasnt, my chewing is all out of alignment..... still managed tho, i'd find a way of eating if they removed my mouth snorting fish and chips :rotfl:

aliasojo

Lol.

Well I've managed to pull a muscle, and I've not even been to the gym yet.

I went to bed really tired at around 10pm ish and fell asleep almost immediately. I woke up around 12 and that was me wide awake. Came downstairs until 4am ish which is when OH went to work and I went back to bed. Took ages to fall asleep and I woke up again about 7am.

I was at that half asleep/half awake stage and was stretching when it suddenly dawned on me the room was very light and I thought I'd slept in for the youngest getting up for school. I turned quickly to look at the clock whilst I was still stretching and felt as if I'd been stabbed with a red hot poker through the top of my back. I couldn't move for about an hour. Eventually got up and taken some high strength ibuprofen but that's the gym stuffed for me today.

You couldn't make it up.
