Lots of posts to catch up on today! I have only been missing since Friday afternoon.

Had a good wedding weekend but a rubbish one for everything else. Went shopping with H2B to start looking for a plain deep purple shirt for him and my son. Got the perfect colour from Next and good value too as they only did that colour in a 2 pack with tie. So they both got a bonus stripey shirt and matching tie. We then found some amazing ties in M&S but at £20 each i decided to keep looking. On the way back to the car i had a quick scan through Tie Rack as they had a sale on. Found the perfect ties!! and a bargain at £1.49 each. They are lilac with purple and grey daisies on them! Very pleased with my days purchases.

Been on a bit of a downer about the house move as we have viewed the only 2 for rent this week and both are rabbit hutches not houses. No garages, no shed, onstreet parking. All no, no's for us. So i had a chinese take away on Saturday night followed by 6 thorntons chocolates. I opened my xmas box and it was a fatal move. I ate a further 4 yesterday and had apple pie and custard. So if i maintain this week i'll be lucky.

So today is another day and i'm back on the Slimming wagon and i am going to actually throw the remainding chocolate in the bin when i get home.

Emma - OMG, your makeup trial is the day of my wedding!!! Hope you'll be thinking of me when you're having it done!

pbny - those togs are all really good, it'll be a hard decision! Thanks for the car feedback, am still waiting for the Daimler quote x

FutureCooper - aw, poor you!! I totally know how you feel my lovely, have a dodgy hug. :grouphug:

I'm on my 5th session of laser lipo and got a bit upset today, the lovely salon lady recommended whey protein shakes (for 2 of my 3 meals a day), so I went and bought some, am going to start it tomorrow. I am at the stage where I just want results fast. I'm getting so down about my weight.

Melanie- those ties sound lovely and such a bargain, at least I guess that makes up for the expense of buying a 2 pack of shirts. Sorry to hear you arent having much luck house hunting, Has your landlord had many viewings?

Wanchai- sending you a hug about feeling down about your weight. The problem about things like the shakes is although you will get quick results is usually very difficult to maintain the results, so just beware that when you go on to normal food you need to be very careful not to put it all back on again.

Thanks Emma I know all that - at least my logical, pre-engaged self does! I'm going to see how it goes. If I get an amazing kick start and lose lots of weight, I'll hopefully have the motivation to keep going. Plus the less I weigh, the less I eat (oh, the irony lol).

Evening everyone, well I am feeling rather smug... I'm poorly, sore throat, bit spaced out, came home and went to bed for a nap. Anyway usually this would defeat any diet plans and we'd get something very naughty like a pizza. But nope - not tonight! tonight we are having the planned tea of spag mince with veggies. I WILL lose weight! Raaaaaaar!

Wanchai - I absolutely agree with Emma, any replacement meal system is really not the way to go. Eat sensible meals and you WILL lose weight. There is still 5 months to go till our weddings. 23 weeks tomorrow till mine - that is over 1st 7lbs of sensible weight loss. Do you think it'd help if we started writing our food diaries on here? It's weigh in day tomorrow. How has your week been? (I've managed 6 green days, i.e. nothing off plan, and 1 red day.)

The maddening thing is Emma he hasn't even put it on the market yet!! We text him last Sunday and asked when it was going on the market and when would the photographer be round but he has never replied. He is ignoring us. We have checked our contract and he can not give us notice before the end of it so we can be here until April. But as we all know time just flies!!!!

I feel your pain. Shakes can sometimes 'shake' things up on the short term, perhaps just a week or 2 to get rid of bloating and to kickstart some loss. I am soooo impatient and i want instant results. Had a good day today though and i'm trying to focus on slow and steady wins the race.

So much to catch up with you guys.

Luckily, we have had no snow down here. Normally I love the snow just not in my current condition.

Well done to all those losing weight. And for those who are struggling it will happen, just have patience and give it some time. I will be joining you in panic mode once I have had the baby as have put on 2st 4lb and still have 4 weeks until I am due. I WILL FIT INTO MY DRESS!!!:mad:

Today we received our invites and realised we made a mistake. The invites are from my parents inviting people to their daughters wedding (obv me). However, we forgot this when printing names and my ohs parents are to Mum and Dad, and grandparents state grandparents. This is obv wrong. Luckily we have a couple of spare invites so are goinng to hand write them. Couldn't believe it as neither me, oh, or my Mum picked up on this until now:rotfl:
