Me too :huh: no, me, not you
Glad to have ya

I think we all seem to be merging into one, we are so alike it's spooky!! :rotfl:

Bad news about hubby tho, will he need an appendectomy when he's improved or is it too late now cos of the adhesion thingys?

He has to go back to hosp in August. On his discharge summary it says for elective appendicectomy. Tbh, the antibiotics & painkillers don't seem to be doing anything, he's halfway through the course & there's no change

Morning peeps :hello:

I'm still [STRIKE]procrastinating[/STRIKE] deliberating on whether I should attempt lcing again :huh:

If I do I want to be uber organised & have everything bought & meal-planned so I just have to look at my list & do it, no thought required!!

Anyway, hope everyone is doing ok, tis a beautiful sunny morning here, hope it's nice where you are :wave:

Got my wartner from Tesco £10 so a bit cheaper than Boots, hows your skin tag looking atm?

It's looking like a skin tag. :rotfl: No change whatsoever. Was just thinking in bed last night I'm gonna blast it again today.

Morning all.

I had a horible dream last night where I got abducted in a foreign country by someone who looked like he might have been Mexican. I was pushing an empty shopping trolley across a dusty car park towards his store and he came out smiled at me then went behind me and grabbed me. I just kept thinking that my OH and my kids wouldn't know where I was and my daughter especially would be so worried. I woke up and that point (I'm not daft, tis always better to wake up before they start doing really bad things to you ). I'm wide awake now obviously but still feel really unsettled so just wanted to share. :rotfl: I'm sure all that means something.....maybe the empty shopping trolley signifies my worries about not being very imaginative.

Got loads to do today and can't be faffed doing any. 2nd son is 21 tomorrow and I need to go pick up another couple of bits for his birthday, I need to write to the insurance company with the report I finally got, I need to arrange a repair call for my shower and I need to go food shopping.

I hope your day goes better than I suspect mine will.

Morning all, fab day here too
Had my shake and hopefully will last til mid morning at least, first two days are always hardest, plain sailing (if your'e not distracted ) then for me.

Was going to do the leaning tower of ironing today, but might tidy the garden/ go the dump instead.

foxy-roxy

:jIt's lovely here as well. nearly caved in and had a piece of toast last night - but managed to overcome the craving.
Had some strawberries and double cream instead - twas yummy.:D

Need to start upping my carb allowance now though so my body isn't in for a shock when I start shoving them down my throat all of a sudden.

Woo hoo 6 weeks tomorrow I will be on my to the Carribbean:T

Hi all. It seems quite positive on here at the moment, let's keep the vibe going! I went into Monsoon on a whim this morning and grabbed a size 12 shirt. It fitted nicely. I can't quite explain how exciting this is, but I don't think I've been a size 12 since my last big heartbreak, when I lost a tonne of weight. That would be 1997. HURRAH! Bottom half is still a large 14, but it's coming. At my largest, at the beginning of 2008, I was a size 20. Since then I've lost a total of 47 lb. Gosh, that sounds quite a lot written like that!
