    Sparkles, take evening primrose oil, I used to suffer badly and was recommended 'off record' by a dermatologist doctor that evening primrose oil seems to work. After 3 weeks the improvement was amazing! Take the highest dose you can.

    Thanks everyone,

    Do you mean the evening primrose capsules to swallow? Or the oil itself to put on the skin directly from the capsules?

    There...I had another of those *flash* moments when I just wanted to climb into something liquid.

    Something and nothing but I just felt like yelling "oh for f***ssake!" - completely over the top and hard to explain but there you go.

    A trigger is passed.

    A fall averted.

    Ever watchful,

  • Hello all :wave:

    3 MAD's for me please shaggy!

    Had couple on Thursday night and a bit too much last night but went out with hubby for first time in ages so I'm not going to feel too bad about it! Intend to be good tonight as my weight loss plan hasn't really got going :o Shaggy well done on your weight loss - any tips throw them this way!! I think I have been treating myself to chocolate instead of wine! Just eaten one of them Cadburys creme eggs in a bar , gorgeous but very sickly.

    Oooh Jo - well done on getting your new job, that is brilliant news. Sorry to hear about your friend's husband though, that is very sad.

    Tonight I shall be mostly drinking Vimto (Diet of course!).

    No Mr T's round here at home, bought some 1000mg today and will take 3 daily and then find another stockist to get a big tub from.

    Bells rang this afternoon and I felt very low and sad and tearful for some reason (ex OH reason). Now I'm tucked up at home for the night with plenty of fizzy pomegrante pop/water to cheer me up later when I make fishcakes for tea.

    Will pop back on tonight while watching Let's Dance for Sport Relief which cheers me up along with Total Wipeout
