indeed, beanie - if I get to the end of the week feeling the same, then I will be more than happy. Day one done and dusted........

And I have stayed off the caffeine, and I am within (just) my points for the day, so have done alright on several levels.

All I need now is to get a good night's sleep. Seemples :rotfl:

Why don't you record a few party politcal broadcasts and threaten yourself with them if you don't sleep?

Any audio books...10 minutes and I'm zonko. But as I also listen to them in the car luckily it doesn't work while moving!

Phew finally caught up that will teach me to go AWOL - like the new handbag - have a bone to pick with you lot all the talk of handbags and clothes set me wondering I don't shop only when absolutely necessary and when I find something that vaguely fits buy it in all available colours and then wear it until it wears out and never had a thing about handbags or shoes - but whilst I was in Cardiff thought I would look at bags to see what all the fuss is about - and wow some of them are really lovely - then I had a look at the clothes after all you couldn't wear just any old clothes with a nice bag- decided I wouldn't know where to start - so a good job they wouldn't fit me anyway - but if I ever get rid of this weight I shall be shopping - but will need lots of help

So now dreaming about clothes - wonders will never cease - sorry I am rambling.

Morning all.

DT, in the last 10 years I have hardly bought any clothes other than tee shirts from primark, but decided, in my quest to "re-discover me" that I should ditch some of the old stuff, find my "real" weight (ie the one I want to be not the one I find myself at), and buy a few quality items that will make me look and feel less of a "frump". So the handbag is all part of that. And my shirts from Lewins arrived yesterday which are all fab, so I am sorted in the work-shirt department now, and that box on my capsule wardrobe list has been duly ticked.

Off to bank and scratch....fingers crossed for a miracle somewhere along the line!

Have a good day, everyone x

Hi, DT I'm like you normally, but realised If I plan the shopping instead of the last minute panic to get something that 'will do', I can forward plan and have time to get nicer things that fit better, and hopefully bargains too.

Not sure how much weight you want to lose, but when I was on my 'big weight loss' - I did buy one dress/outfit that fitted when I went down each dress size, it made it so that I had something that made me look and feel better about myself, which helped me stick to the diet.

Good morning Hypno,

Pleased to hear that the shirt blouses are nice.

Scratchies done, the normal gold fish, but one 25p on V.

Hope everyone has a good day.

I got a 20p and a 50p today so consider myself a true winner :cool::rotfl:

Just for today/this lunch time, I gave up on my healthy eating regime and ate a lovely chorizo burger at GBK, because I will be moved to a different work place/position and I don't want to go, plus my line manager paid for it so I didn't spend any money.

hypno06

If you didn't pay for it, then it must also be free of calories, fat, syns and points I hope you enjoyed it.

I have stuck to my diet today, even managing to fit in a blueberry muffin which a colleague had baked for her birthday. I have also sort of promised macgirl that I will go for a run after work, and so far I haven't come up with any good reason not to
