Well done Melissa and Lei too

Louby - As much as I would love to give up the diet I really can't! I hate not being able to eat normal food, to the point it is doing my head in, but I have to lose some of this weight on the offchance my leg will stop hurting so much!! Could your mum not come to yours for an hour whilst you go to the gym?

I have finally finished off the card for DD's nursery teacher! has taken me ages! Anyway I blogged it here

Rusty, your card is beautiful, going to cause yet more tears you know! I love the ladies at DS2's preschool, they are fantastic with the children and DS2 loves them all.

Tiredmom, I posted your images and cross stitch kit yesterday, hope it comes today/tomorrow. Sorry can't help with the other image x

No she doesn't have a car as my dad needs it for work if she got free public transport she would prob come but i can't ask her to come over 2 or 3 times a week. I will have to stick to the wii fit and walking to and from school and major cutting down.

I just went to a carboot, it was pretty rubbish but picked up some peel off. Maybe a tip for jewllery makers there was quite a few beads and full necklaces that maybe you could take apart and re make them into something nicer.

Rusty - I went to the gym once years ago and didn't like it- I am far too self conscious!!! Your card is perfect - I love those images!!

Louby-Lou-Lou - its not easy is it when you've got little ones!! If we were rich we'd have nannies, chefs and personal trainers - no wonder celebrities get back in shape!

Yes you did see that I have an iPad, and I absolutely love it! It is so much easier and I use it all the time, the only things I need the laptop for are logging into the bank but that's cause I can't remember numbers so they are all on laptop, using robo (not used it for ages) sometimes to get freebies off blog land, and updating my blog. I do everything else on here! I use forums, I do all my bay stuff and everything else! I even have an app to use for blogs! If you get the chance to have one I would definately say go for it!

Thanks for the PM - i've just replied! Lol at this rate we'll all be half the size at the next NEC Ooh the iPad does sound really good and so handy to have. Will have to wait and see if I get one or not as my Mum told my Godmother it was too much money to spend... x

Lei_Armstrong - congrats on you 4 stone weight loss- that's an amazing amount - you're much more dedicated than me - going to the gym 4 times a week - I can't face doing 10 mins on the wii fit!!!

Thank you - it's taken ALOT of willpower lol though is getting harder to keep it up the hotter it gets (who wants to be sweaty before you even start exercising?)! It's a ladies only gyn too which kinda helps x
