    Aaaah I see Emma, but you can see the detail if you were to look at you side on? :) In that case I wouldn't worry about it because most people are going to be looking at you side on the majority of the time :)

    Well my mum has her outfit sorted - bless her!! She was dragged to Meadow hall by some of her friends. My mum is like me - she hates clothes shopping. Anyway she has come away with what looks like a really lovely flattering dress. Cannot wait to see her in it!! It'll be the first time I think I've ever seen her in a dress!! And she has chosen a lovely pair of shoes!! It's just a shame her feet are so much bigger than mine else I'd be nicking them off her after the wedding. It is funny cause she's now obsessing over finding a matching bag which is something I never thought I'd hear from my mum! :)

    Morning guys - well I can't remember what I was last time I weighed in (or even how long ago it was lol), but this morning I am 10st3.5lbs. I want to be 9st8 at least by the wedding. (9.5lbs to lose... easy peasy... right?!)
    Hope you all have a good day and I should have more time to catch up tonight. x

    We're trying to lose about the same then I'm 10st 4 trying to get to 9st10 or 11 I lost a lot of weight last year and got down to 9st 7 but my partner didn't like it he said I looked too thin so I think a couple of lbs up will be right.

    I've just agreed to help out at my ww meetings so that should give me some help, plus I've just brought a bike so I'm going to put lil lady in a seat and cycle everywhere for the next 15 weeks.

    Oh no!! Don't panic. . . . try and look at the positive, you have a few months to find another one and have a couple of trials so you feel comfortable with her. Can a friend recommend their hairderesser perhaps?

    I had a mini wobble when my hairdresser of 10 years announced her pregnancy. She is due at the end of May but she has kindly offered to still do my hair on the morning of the wedding and bring baby with her if needs be. I have my first trial after my haircut this Saturday morning!!!! I can not wait although i do not have my hairclip ready. I brought a lovely flower headband from Tesco of all places (they are doing bridal jewellery btw) and i have detached it from the alice band and i am going to attach it to a clip of some sorts. I'll ask my hairdresser to take a few pics with my phone so i can post them.

    1 more get up until Half Term

    OK, crafty help needed! I'm hoping to make some little pressies or goodie bags as a thank you for my hen party chums, any cost-effective ideas? There'll be about a dozen girls. Thanks in advance x


    I am being SO good right now foodwise - and I'm off to bootcamp this evening, am utterly 'in the zone' now weightloss-wise! I think that the closer the wedding gets, the more focused I get! Come on, weight loss buddies!!!!! :j


    Natalie - chuffed for your mum! My mum's outfit is FAB - it's so stylish and elegant, she is going to look amazing. I'm so excited for her! :)


    Mel - looking forward to seeing the pic of your hairclip xx


    Verytryingmummy - a bike is brilliant for exercise and also gets you from A to B, so good thinking. :T

    Natalie- :j at you mum having her outfit. My mum is going to be a nightmare- Im sure of it so Im sending her shopping with her friends rather than brave it myself with her!

    Biscuitmad- I dont blame you for feeling close to tears, but you do have plenty time so Im sure you will be fine. I was slightly worried when my friend (my hairdresser) said she may have another bride to do on the same day as my wedding but apparently shes already told her she needs to fit around me and my timings. I would start asking around for recommendations.

    Wanchai- Ive been feeling a bit more motivated this week although Ive been too busy for the gym. Well done on feeling motivated though- you can do it!

    Natalie- you can see all the detail from the side- and actual its the side that will face the guests when we are saying our vows!!:D, it really stands out against the darkness of my hair, I do have pictures, I just need to find a lead to get them onto my pc!!

    In that case Emma I think you're worrying over nothing :D

    Biscuit!! Bless you - but as the others have said don't panic (yet), you will find another hair dresser. Did your hair dresser say why she'd cancelled? What did you want her to do? (My proper hair dresser is going to cut and colour my hair the weekend before the wedding, and then I'm going to do the 'do' on the day).

    Well I've eaten crap all day. :D (Had an emotionally draining day at work today - see my FB for more details... so sod it!! I will go back to being 'good' on Saturday when work is over!)

    I have an email from her husband saying she is clinically depressed and is undergoing psychiatric help!

    My only problem is we are getting married an hour away from where we live (and im staying in a hotel the night before so need someone to come to the hotel) so I don't know anyone in the area and she was the hairdresser that got back to me when I was first looking!

    Sorry for the moan.
