    I seem to have missed something along the way - I see from signatures that there's a Dribblers' Weight loss challenge- can I please join? Really need the motivation to get going on this - have around 3 stone to lose - although I'm just trying to think about losing 1 stone first! I promise to post tips, recipes, ideas (I know a bit - I've been dieting for around 40 years - still fat though!) and I'll put my weight in my signature when I can pluck up the courage!

    The more the merrier Mrs M! Don't feel you have to put your weight in your siggy if you're not comfortable doing it, but you know none of us are in a place to judge! I'm hoping I'll find it inspiring seeing it coming down every week... well, that's the plan!! :rotfl:

    there are so many people on here I would like to live near to or meet in real life. would nice to be able to just pop round for a cup of tea or have you come here.although I would have to tidy up for about a month first.
    not really felt like that on any forums before even parenting ones.

    Agree, and get the feeling if we all met up we'd never shut up!
    Toots, you're thanking me?? I love love love it, keep sneaking into the utility room to have a peek in the gift bag, that was a lovely idea too can't wait to sneak him into her arms on wednesday night! If you have somewhere online for me to leave a glowing report and some pics of a happy DD1 with her Totoro it might be good?
    I'm shattered due to OH waking me up at five coming to bed and making a lot of noise about having man-flu (he's red hot but won't go to doctors, silly man) but my list for this week includes booking my stupid horrible driving theory test (I'm looking forward to it, can you tell...) and getting some stuff Ebayed. Well it might happen...
    Have a good night Dribblers xx

    Lol, thanks Paula, my website is a work in progress (has been since um, ages ago) but I'll take you up on that offer when I'm ready if I may! In the meatime, I'd love to see piccies of DD with Toto! Goodnight hun.

    Evening. Flying visit. First day back at work, jolly busy and lots of enquiries coming in. Had a workshop all day yesterday too, so no rest for the wicked LOL. Going to chill out with a glass of wine and a good book for a bit and have an early night I think.

    Helloooo, goood nightttt! Sounds like a lovely plan, hope you enjoy your chilling evening!

    Whew, ok, think that's me all caught up. There really must be an easier way of doing this!!

    Hi MummyandP-thats ok hun..stupid computermabobs!

    Hi Toots :-)....oooh I'm going out to water my seeds :-)
  • Jo, if you've already eaten and still feel hungry, have a glass of water ;)

    Hey Munchki, will be with you shortly sweetie, hope you're getting things sorted out.

    MummyandPaige, just wanted to say that when you recognise you've lost yourself, that's when you usually start to find bits again. Hold on in there, it'll come *hug*

    MandP it really is nice to have you back. if you want to share or chat about your plan or anything else PM me. I'd love to hear about it. You will get there. hugs.
    Toots thanks for reminding me about water. I never fancy it but actually really like it when I drink it.
    Mabel you're really going to see if they've grown yet aren't you!!
