  • My Secret is Simple....

    I have a 4 month old baby and take him out and have a unreliable car meaning I have to get it working and skip meals whilst I am working on it...

    I am 1/3rd of the way to my target weight in my head (Still class me as overweight based on BMI but at the end of the day I couldnt give a toss as i am of the larger build naturally (Broad shoulders and rib cage) When I was at my BMI Ideal weight everone commented on what a lanky !!!!!! I was lol.

  • Also I should add that I eat quite well, Love my veg and home cooked meals (Although my cooking skills leave a massive amount to be desired)

    My Biggest weakness is the fact I like my curries once a week, both financially and physically.

    Hi all - sorry i've not been around much, things have been pretty rubbish over the last few weeks. To top it off i've just got home from weekend away to a note from the neighbour who was supposed to be looking after our ducks. He forgot to shut them in and they've gone :( i'm gutted. I know they're only ducks but they were my pets and i loved them. Sorry to arrive and offload :(

    I know I've missed out the whole afternoon worth of posts, but Em, I had to say before anything else, how devastated I am for you hun, I'm so so very sorry. A hug won't do it, but it's all I can give *hug*

  • Sounds like it's been a tough week on the weight loss front, I'm kind of scared to go weigh myself now!!!

    Hi to everyone, I did try the multiquote thing and it didn't work again grrr. Does anyone know if there's a maximum number you can add, and also if it carries over to the next page?

    NLID - well done on the weigh in. I totally back the idea. i lost almost 2 stone in the first 5 months with a little one - only difference with me is i dont drive so was walking everywhere and the only way my DD would sleep is by going on a long walk. As for the curry thing it must be a new parent thing lol. Me and OH went through a stage of a curry a week and is a total killer financially. Anyways i need some inspiration for you fellow dribblers - my OH birthday friday and she has everything she ever needs according to her. What can i get her?

    Hope everyone is keeping well though and Zumba was great my OH said when she started a few weeks ago
