  • I'm like Charlie Bucket. The hot chocolate came with 2 bars - 1 milk & 1 70% cocoa. They're in my freezer and I'm breaking off a millimetre a day lol

  • I'm fighting to not eat DDs selection boxes. Am attempting the Special K diet but I'm not sure it works when I feel so empty that I make a bacon sandwich and cheese on toast to go with it...Having a week off work is all well & good but I can't eat like this at work!

  • I plan to have another one before I'm 30. Just need to figure out what the hell is going on with the ex beforehand!Problem is (and I apologise to any men who are reading this) that I had an emergency c-section with DD (she decided that since she's an Aquarian she would try and come out sideways - she got stuck) and I didn't get sewn up properly. The diet is all about trying to lose the bulge in my stomach but I have a horrible feeling that if they'd done a Posh Spice instead of an NHS quickie that I would look much better at this point!

    Yep! the NHS are brilliant aren't they :rolleyes:

    Know what you mean about the tummy though, I had all mine au naturel and have a wobbly tummy. Though my excuse is I am 42 and I have had 3 kids in 5 years :D

  • I was kind of dozy during my C-section but my ex swears blind that my surgeon was a little Chinese woman (I can vouch for that cos she saw me before I got properly drugged up) and after she asked for the scalpel she asked for a box.... Certainly, my scar suggests that she cut across one side of my stomach then moved the box to the other side and cut again. Very wonky and definitely in 2 halves...Can't complain about the NHS though really (although I do) cos both me and DD would have died if not for the c-section.

    I agree some NHS hospitals are brilliant but some are a nightmare.

    Any way I'm off to bed now so will wish a good night and sweet dreams :D

    No more Hamster :eek: No don't do that to me :eek: I couldn't bear the shock :eek: That would really do me in:eek: Tis the only reason I watch :D

    Bath RUH is abysmal. I nearly gave birth in the toilets and had the worst experiance ever with my first. "I am not a number" "Oh! yes you are!"
    My local cottage hospital was like being on holiday :D and Swindon Hospital was brilliant :D
