    Hi Guys,

    Sorry its late and I haven't caught up yet.

    But just to say Sparkly one the challenge completed, thankyou for you hard work on this, and DB 11 af days now for Budgie please and thankyou for your hard work too :A (()) xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

    I really can't stay as I need the loo again :o

    I have started celebrity slim today and I have drank soooooooo much water as I am constantly running to the loo.

    Stocked up on loads of fresh veg, oodles of it. I feel thinner already :rotfl:

    I am off work until Monday so plenty of time to get used to it, though I doubt my boss will be pleased if I am away from my desk, due to my water intake.

    My new treadmill has arrived, the men who delivered it were not very good, they could not get their van into the cul-de-sac and then when they realised that they had to put it in the summerhouse well really ............. dummies pram spring to mind.
    (They dragged the other one over the ground and it must be scratched to bits), The new one has a mark on it, so I will just get the part replaced.

    Well Mr Budgie has threatened to set fire to it if he had to disassemble it again :eek:

    So love n hugs to everyone
    God Bless
    Budgie xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

    Waves to maman - my weightloss regime involves taking off all the layers I wear through winter (4 or so) so suddenly I feel much lighter!

    Won't go for a bikini though - may be summer soon but a bit risky for that!!

    All this talk of dieting and weight loss made me think I was on "LouiseJ's Weightloss Thread" and not the AF one for a minute. Well done with the weight loss everyone and good luck with the diets.
    What do we do when we fall? We get up, dust ourselves off and start walking in the right direction again. Perhaps when we fall, it is easy to forget there are people along the way who help us stand and walk with us as we get back on track.

    Morning all!

    I'm a happy piggy today.....on ebay I won a set of 6 Paul Mckenna "I can make you thin" DVD's and his 90 day success journal....for £6.99!!:T:T:jThey normally go for about £50+ so am very chuffed! The CD and book I have are really good but on the DVD's he shows you the exercises etc so should be helpful!

    Must say, I was feeling extremely positive yesterday...more positive and happy than I've felt in a while. I think thats down to feeling a little bit "free". I'm either always on a diet, thinking about what I can eat or worrying about what I AM eating so it makes a change to approach it so differently. I actually had something I wanted for dinner and I had two glasses of wine with it too. No more...rest of bottle went into the fridge. Unheard of for me.

    Anyway, must shift...off to do my Mrs Mop job and Piglet on a bit of a go slow.

    Catch u all later!

    Miss P

    Good Morning.

    I would like to apologise to 'fedupandskint' and to everyone else on here, for my crass language, earlier this week, and for any offence caused.

    Hope you are all well, and are enjoying the sunshine.

    It's been a great week here.

    My voluntary work at the homeless charity, is going very well, and I've been sober 10 days now :)

    CBT today at 1pm. Looking forward to it!

    Enjoy your weekend guys,

    Cheers - Sim x
