    Hi all

    Agree Coxy, some of us have no idea how fortunate we are.
    Thanks Dragon for doing the list even though you've not been 100%
    Belated well done on TL theatregirl, you'll be steaming ahead now. Love BP 35 :)

    B - F&F, sk milk
    L - at DD's, she made delicious seeded wholemeal bread sandwiches with cheesy coleslaw, no butter/spread needed
    D - salmon/prawns parcel - in foil with a little lf spread, black pepper and lemon juice, jacket, broad beans
    S - apple, nana, orange, grapes
    E - as per Sundays post (tbka 5410 in future :))

    Stay safe, warm and dry :)

    Stardrops- welcome :)

    Im in major panic mode!!!! :eek: I brought a size 10 w*rehouse dress off ebay (new with tags) and although I can get it on I look AWFUL in it- think sausage and skin!!! :eek: I have another size 10 w*rehouse dress that fits ok but due to the style of the new one the new one doesnt!!

    Hmm could you wear the dress that fits if you don't fit into the new one? Otherwise yes get a new dress BUT try and get into the one with tags as well!

    I'm in the "forward thinking" camp - be positive - you got into the dress but would a good foundation garment help - you know the one that Gok promotes for smoothing down lines and sucking you in ;)

    Food was okay for me today :)

    b - fruit and fibre breakfast biscuits
    l - carrot and coriander soup, mince pie
    d - spaghetti with tomatoes, capers and anchovies, rocky bar

    I love mince pies - why are they so high in fat?! Fingers crossed for a loss this week :)

    Poor Mrs Dragon, hope you're feeling better now

    SSM, will you feel comfortable if the dress only fits okay? I'd try it with the underpinnings on but go with what makes you feel confident

    I had such a bad eating but good times weekend but I have been back on track this weekend! Even the biscuit tin at work holds no temptation for me!!

    b- porridge & prunes
    l- ryvita and philly, apple, half a lf choc mousse
    d- jacket pot, baked beans, sausage, small slice left-over grasshopper pie!

    Oh how wonderful - congratulations to you all :T:T:T
    I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer.
    Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration.
    I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over and through me. When it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path.
    When the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.
