    I have purchased a microwave egg poacher and i have just given it its first trial. Eggs are free food on SW so i have just had 2 of those on 2 slices of brown bread (B choice) it was really nice. I like my eggs a bit runnier but it made a nice change from salad as i'm getting bored of that now. Finished off with a quarter slice of melon.

    Still thinking about the birthday cakes in the staff kitchen though!!! *think about the dress, think about the dress, think about the dress.

    Futurecooper- I also brought my dress a size too small... I have until October to drop a dress size!

    Someone else in the same boat, brilliant :j It was MSE at the time but now i think i'll end up having to have a panel put in it on the top part because its too small. It should have a modesty piece with it but it was missing when i brought it and the shop said they'll just make me one when i take it back for the length alterations ( i am having the bottom taken off and made knee length) however it means i have nothing to gauge how far off i am at doing it up properly!

    I think mine will still be MSE even with the alterations (I may have to have the buttons change to lace up). It was meant to be £1400 new, I got it £109 second hand off eBay!

    Need to sort out a dressmaker around April I am thinking- so do really want to know if I can loose the weight by then. If I am nearly there I will keep the button back (fingers crossed), if not I will have to get a corset back. I am only looking at an inch... Gym tonight.... :D

    Angelina looks awful, I just googled it to have a peek, not healthy at all.
    When you're chewing on life's gristle, don't grumble, give a whistle.

    Angelina has been getting skinnier and skinnier over the years. Its a shame, she used to be so pretty.

    Bargain!! In my head i equate 1 stone to 1 dress size and about 1 inch too. So i need to lose an inch as well, so thats another stone i need to shift. My first fitting is June 2nd! 13 weeks ish so i could do it.
