Fellpony: Thought they band that sort of lark? Congrats on the free meal, what a result!
Granny: Have a fab time. Im a greece fan, not just because of john
Well i went to a wedding fair today, it wasnt actually bad. Although i had one man perving at me (it was the legs out that did it) but he looked like a peadophille priest so i had to hide behind my colleague most of the day!0 -
Vix - I wish they had, it was a very sulky woman who said DD could have a goldfish if we agreed, once we had decided on the goldfish she then tried to up her sale by asking if we wanted to buy fish food and a fish bowl!! Erm let me think NOOOOO!! I would never have allowed DD to have one if we didn't already have a tank and it all set up already. He is now one happy goldfish, still looking for a name for him though...You never know how strong you are until you have no other option.0

hiya gang
had a bit of time off - had a bad week with a rotten cold so didnt really care about food/exercise.
hopefully this week will be better
vix - i love that lost prophets song
fellpony - good to hear you already had a tank for your fish
I am a bit of a goldie enthusiast!
hope everyone's well and having (had) a nice weekend
will be back on the SW wagon tomorrow so will be weighing in on Weds, but i think i'm going to opt out of the N v S challenge simply because i'm not sure which way my cold (and my enthusiasm) might swing next week!
hopefully will get to the gym a few times as i know it'll make me feel better.

fellpony, im always on the lookout for mse meal options and so were just wonderin' if goldfish might be rich in essential omega 3 oils?0 -
I think you'd need a fish oil capsule to top it up to be on the safe side puds.
Maybe if you sushify if a bit it may retain more omega for you

Hi guys and a big well done to everyone:T
Well im here in Florida (where its been up to 90 degrees) lovely and I have been busy working on my tan - Yes Im a sun worshipper:D
When I got here after posting my weight to Fred on Tuesday, I got weighed after the long haul flight (Yes I know I shouldn't have done this!!) and found out I was 3lbs heavier than the day before - Aarghh:eek:
I got weighed again after a day here and lost the 3 lbs which made me feel a whole lot better when I put my bikini on!!:rotfl:
I realise that my weight is going to be up and down like a yoyo, but hey Im on my hols but I would still love to check in and hopefully you will all remind me to be good on the diet:T
Fred - if you could put me down for Round 2 please.
Thanks (WTG Eric for double digits!!!):cool:0 -
is there any significance about having a few days'heavy' and then lightening up!--i did 3 concescutiive days in the gym last week-tues wed thurs --and from thursday onwards i weighed 2lbs heavier but today after a heavy weekend of hard work on saturday and eating lots of naughties' for the rest i am down 3lbs--seems to happen every Monday morning--weighing light!!-im not complaining but it seems odd--i weigh myself daily as you can tell!!mfw'11 No68- 55k mortgage İO--little to nothing saved! i must do better.0

Hardly MSE Puds, £2.50 for a tidly goldfish!! But totally agree witht the sentiment lol
Go on then I'll put my self in for Buckfast Beauties round two - the revenge! (although the way my eating is going I should probably give them a chance and join the Southern Softies - ooops I mean Stunners!!You never know how strong you are until you have no other option.0 -
well fellpony, i think compared to buying a hotdog from the fair for about 4 quid, that a healthy nutritious goldfish is a very mse option.
