You're still fab to us! Hugs xx

Why shucks, you have made me blush

Thank you!

Well I took myself to the bathroom and had a nice long soak in the tub and gave my hair a good wash. Now smothered head to toe in moisturiser and hand cream and am going to head to bed.

Here is to being fabulous tomorrow!

Good morning and a happy new year to everyone.
I finally have time to myself again!
Having two mini breaks (not relaxing) and visitors over christmas and new year has left me quite frazzled!
My love for christmas is rapidly fading
My new year resolution of trying not to please everyone has already gone to pot

Anyway.... I was shocked and pleased to see I have 32 pages to catch up on :eek: could take a while so will just add my bit for now.

I hope you all had a good christmas and new year (belated good wishes)

Hugs to anyone who has been having a difficult time:(

A pat on the back for everyone that is still making good headway:)

A warm welcome to all the new comers, more the merrier

I did back slide over christmas and put on a few pounds but in the past week I have managed to get back on track and managed to lose 2lbs :j
I just need to get my excercise regime rebooted and hopefully will feel more energised.
I will not set myself a target this year but if I lose the same amount as last year I shall be very pleased slowly but surely.

Right....I am going to make a start on those 32 pages :eek:

Upwards and onwards
Carmen xx

I would like to Join this if that's alright. I'm brand new!

i've just had a baby, and need to get back to my gorgeous self, instead of this fat frump i see in the mirror.

Joined Weightwatchers have lost 8lbs since started, 16lb since the birth of baby.

I am usually quite good with my cleansing routine, i have a clarisonic - amazing. What i need to keep up with is fake tanning, i look better with a tan. Going to have a nice pamper session today, fake tan, face mask, hair mask, ect.

Haven't managed to get a pashmina or shrug, despite being in the shopping centre for five and a half hours :eek:, although we did get Mum her mother of the bride outfit from Jacques Vert, less than half price for co-ordinating dress, bag, shoes and fascinator, and she looks so lovely. I am going to order a pashmina and a shrug over the internet (in case one is not suitable colour or style wise - I am in panic buy mode now!) I have seen a shrug I like that should be delivered on time, so will order it tomorrow.

I've bought a couple of pasminas for different wedding/posh do outfits from ebay - if you search ebay for pashminas there's a company that sell them in every possible colour at very reasonable prices (about a fiver if I remember) - they deliver very quickly too - may help?

Just back from a trot round the park with the dogs - dread to think what I look like in my scruffs jogging up and down fields trying to get dogs to follow me!:eek: Blew away the cobwebs though.

I need to do my nails tonight, 1 has broken so have to do them now. Will also have a defuzz and a face scrub tonight. I'm mostly doing schoolwork and dog walking today so there won't be much in the way of glamour dressing going on but I will shower, wash and dry my hair and moisturise etc. Need to stick to the diet too - can't let things slip now I've made a good start.

I also need to sharpen all my eye pencils so I don't get tempted to just slap it on any which way and not take care at 6.30am before work.

Hope everyone has a fab day!

I'm back from a trot around the park with the dog and then out for a 40min run which went ok. Very mild out there and the sun came out, reminding me of summer! That was a nice reminder of days to come

Next fabbing is writing a note of SW recipes to try out today and tomorrow - they're certainly much lower in fat and kcal than I expected so I'm hoping they're nice and tasty!

Morning ((hugs)) everyone! I've been really busy revising like a mad woman this weekend so have had little time for fabbing but will catch up with the thread when I take a break later today, and reply to PMs!
Fabbing tonight: hair treatment, paint nails, body brush, exercise.

Is anyone else recording their fab activities anywhere else like a blog? Photos of your new nails or make up? Are we allowed to share them(I doubt any of us have 10000000 followers and are making money off them!)?
I've started one as I've realised sometimes I make a face mask, recipe or do a workout that I really like but forget to write it down so I never do it again!

I feel as though I have all the necessary products to keep myself looking good, just not the dedication to use them,

This is my problem; it means focussing on me, and I don't like me.:(

KateSpade welcome; and congratulations on your new family member.:o

Snap.

Morning everyone. Didn't get to sleep until 4am, then had horrific toothache. Have an appointment to get it taken out on the 16th but I think I'll have to push it back a week because it's so hard to get to my dentist :eek:

Today's plan - at least 10 minutes on the rowing machine, avoiding takeaways, and trying not to hurt myself! I'll also attempt to moisturize etc for tomorrow.

I've got a blog, I think that I'll start recording fab things that I do in it at some point. Must take a pic of my nails.
