  • Just a quick note to say hello and good going. I've just started posting after lurking for weeks and your diary was the first I subscribed to (the beginning of being hooked on this forum I think). Your ability to be up at daft a clock in the morning also amazes me as well as making me rather green. I think I could get loads more done if i only didn't love my sleep.

    Stick with ebay if you can....it's tedious and packing is awful, but after just banking £140 this last week and another £110 on it's way it's worth it. :D
    You have to start to finish.

    Glad to see you have decided to keep 'riding the waves' and you have broken the 23 stone barrier :) Take care though - swollen glands and all that - nasty. Look forward to reading more diary entries.

    Only helicopters we have here are flown by royalty;) and bl**dy close to the chimney pots he gets too:rotfl:

    Hello Mr B
    I've decided to come out of lurkdom and say hello:hello:. I've been reading since you started the diary and subscribed on day 2, I love your writing style.

    I'm so pleased you came back this morning, I'd have missed my daily dose of life at Mr B's:D

    You're doing brilliantly, hope the glands go down soon and looking forward to the next instalments.

    I agree with Hypno on the 'control' front. I was on and off diets for about 18 years varying from 13.5 stone to 6.5 stone. When I relaxed and sorted my head out eating healthily and more importantly eating when hungry followed very naturally.

  • The Bloater home is alive with the reeling stink of vomit as the wife and both kids have puked their way through a troubled night, which'll make the school run easier today cos there won't be one and I can go to work earlier and continue writing a pointless report analysing data that really doesn't matter anymore. It's shaping up to be a great day. Only one thing for it, it's 4.17am so I must get the running boots on.
