    Oh no Mel2 - that's not good - BUT at least you know regardless of the bolero if you are desperate you have a back up for the alterations. Perhaps we could help source a back up bolero just incase? It might not match your dress perfectly as your planned one would but if needs must :(

    Well I've just got back from Yoga to an empty house. (Warning - rant alert). Now this !!!!es me off. He won't come home till gone 8 - I would hesitate closer to 8:30. Now if I wait till then to make tea it'll be around 9:30 that we actually eat - which is way too late when a) I'm hungry and b) I'm *trying* to lose weight. The longer I get hungry for and the longer I have to wait the more I get fed up, can't be arsed to cook, and want a pizza. But by the same token I begrudge doing tea on my own. It's different if he's had a long day at work. But he got home at 5:40 (as I was going out to Yoga) and has spent since then round his mums - 2 hrs!! (Such a mummy's boy!). ARGH someone remind me why I want to marry him :rotfl: I so want a house husband to do all the cooking for me! :D

    Hey guys, thought I would just pop in. My life has gone hectic because of Uni and the baby. Only four weeks to go until little one is due :eek:
    I have just made a 'garter' decision!!

    Background information is that H2B is a huge Man Utd fan and so are all his family . . . i am not that keen to be honest and i have been brought up on Liverpool. Whilst i don't really follow football i do like to rib H2B, just because i can!!! So my decision is i am going to have a garter and put a Man Utd badge on it so on the day i'll flash him my new allegiance. It will mean a lot to him and make his family laugh. He always jokes that if i really love him i would love United too. So i am now on the lookout for a badge . . .

    I have something similar. My garter is half blue with Portsmouth on it (for my OH) and half red with Southampton in it for me.
  • Melanie- I would definately carry on looking around, asking for recommendations as my status worked for me!!:)

    Natalie- I think if you are likely to want to then be naughty foodwise I would get on and cook dinner this time- but I would tell him in future as he isnt supporting you/ helping you in your mission to lose weight that in future you will just get on and do your own dinner and he can sort his own out!!:p

    Well Im feeling a bit smug with myself at how I managed to eat out and resisted chips and pudding (this for me is highly unusual!!) I had chicken breast, jacket potato and a bit of salad!:D

    :D Cue smug mode...

    Well I have not only done my own tea (and his - I know I know - lol he still isn't back)... but I have also done my veg for my lunch tomorrow (with left over steak stew from the freezer), veg for tomorrow's tea for both of us (again - I know I know), and the veg for Thursday's lunch. :D In about 15 mins it's all going to be ready - :rotfl: when do I text him to tell him it's ready? Lol about 10 mins after so it's all burnt *cackles*. I'm such a softie really. So that is another good day from me today and I will have a good day tomorrow :) Raaaaaaaaaaar!
  • Well done on remaining on track and not giving in to pizza! And well done for getting the veg all sorted aswell! I would text him so he comes in just to see the last bit of your perfectly cooked dinner being eaten- and then so his will be overcooked in the oven- just so he realises yours is tasty and his isnt! (but as youve gone to the effort of cooking his he will feel he has to eat it!!:D)

    :rotfl: soooo tempting!! :D
  • Im thinking I may go to bed soon- that way I wont give in to temptation and have a chocolate biscuit!:D

    I was pleased with myself yesterday- I know i have havent lost loads of weight but when we went out I wore a straight knitted dress that I havent worn for ages cos it clung wrong my belly and wasnt flattering- well it was much looser round my stomach so I reckon the toning at the gym must be helping! Im really hoping I can stick to being good, I really need to as 1- my dress needs to fit and 2- I dont want to look flabby in a bikini on honeymoon (well at least for the first week, we are all inclusive afterall!!:rotfl:)

    Good idea Emma, let's list why we want to lose a bit of weight/tone up if we want to...

    1) I don't want fat arms/back in my dress
    2) I don't want to look like a beached whale in my wetsuit
    3) I want my little silk slip thing I've got for the wedding night to fit without having a massive belly sticking out
    4) I want to look amazing in my dress at my brother's wedding
  • I have officially paid my first deposit LOL the venue is BOOKED
