Hi Shoe Gal,

hope you have a fab time tonight, love the sound of the outfit & the shoes are gorgeous; just the sort of thing I pick up & dream of wearing, but about an inch too high for me ... for now

Have a good night.

Thanks for all the lovely comments ladies :A I think my saving grace in the fatness thing is that I am quite good at disguising it I would never be one of those girls who squeezes into too tight clothes, clinging to every lump and bump

Souk - I love Kookai stuff too, and Mango. Like thinks that are a little bit different but are not too young (I am 43 after all :eek:)

Lula - as they are shoe boots the heels were actually quite easy to walk in (for a heels girls like me anyway )

gwen - ditch the jacket :eek: Let's make March 'glamour' month too, as part of the 'sorting out'

Night out was fun, fab food! Lazy Sunday here, Carling Cup Final this afternoon (come on you Reds :j:j) And then, from tomorrow -

March is 'sorting myself out' month :)

Hello fabby girl

Glad to hear you had a good night out & I too am a master of disguise when it comes to clothes ... probably how those pounds creep on, when feeling a bit fat, it's so easy to just wear something that is a bit more flattering.

Well, it was, but having grown 2 sizes - no denying it - I'm running out of flattering stuff too.

Like you say March is going to be Mad Makeover Life month .

Enjoy your relaxing & you'd be proud of the boots I bought, about 2 1/2 inch neels & not stiletto but very slim - I'm doing well :rotfl:

Thanks Lula and :j to fab boots

End of February update


2 straightforward aims for 2010

1. get debt below £20k - currently £25,251.61 - now £24,137.46
2. get weight below 10 stone - currently 12 stone 1 lbs - now 12 stone 2lbs

I seem to be getting to grips with my debts so I will continue that in March, my main focus for March will be my weight/fitness

Shoe_Gal

• to lose 10lbs
• to exercise 3 times per week
• to stick to a regular beauty routine

I will get weighed in the morning to declare my start weight then aim to lose 10lbs from that.

I need to get my excema back under control and look after my skin properly, and take care of my general wellbeing. That means exercising, taking vitamins and getting enough sleep. This needs to be a lifestyle change

I will keep updating on here, feel free to nag/encourage me

Excellent Shoe gal, we can nag each other!

I too need to do the beauty thing too. my skin and hair and nails (looking down at my hands as I type) all need to be buffed etc

Good luck for the start tomorrow!
