Re: The Date – FOR ALL INTERESTED (LOL)
Well, yes I am a dark horse as you say Sary lol.
Although not sure if it is happening now as I think I’ve chased him away! He was very very keen and texting a lot and I was doing the whole playing hard to get thing – which I think I took a little too far. There has been a fair amount of banter and craic! He also added me on FB yesterday – and I’d never told him my surname. I of course freaked out - blocked him on FB and then sent him a message to say there was no way we were being friends on FB as my whole life was on there – think he has taken the hump with this! I did text him last night and said that I didn’t mean to be offensive etc! and he never replied.
Hes 6 ft 3, big bald rugby type guy – same age as me – 34 – lives in the same village (which I don’t like) as if it goes wrong then I’ll be banging into him at the Muller Lights in Asda!!:rotfl:
So who knows – hate all this – my stomach is doing flips lol! Sometimes I think I get afraid of rejection and so I create obstacles or a fight so that I don’t get hurt! Although to be fair I think most people would understand why I freaked out about the facebook request!! If someone wants to know something about me then they can ask me – not find out from FB. Besides all my fat pics are on there.
Maybe I’m not ready after all! :rotfl:
So yeah - If I hear from him I will go and try to behave nicely!

Lantanna i totally understand why you freaked out over the fb add I'd have done the same did he have ur email so could have found you using that ? Or friends in common?
Hopefully its not all over before it started xxx


Really need to go into town today but can't be eating junk out xxx
Might have an early lunch /brunch and go get the train xxx decisions decisions xxx possibly feeling too rough and sore to walk and negotiate public transport with the pram and a toddler who constantly wants to get out n walk

Morning all, Lantanna wow tracking you down on Facebook is one thing, adding you as a friend before the date, I think I'd say no too! But hopefully you can get back talking and get on with the date.

I need help if you can...
Out to dinner tonight at an Italian restaurant, what on earth do I order to stay on plan? I'm veggie, they have all the normal pizza, pasta, risotto, gnocci, This is the menu: http://paolos-restaurant.co.uk/site/wp-content/uploads/2013/11/Paolos-Restaurant-Main-Menu.pdf

Any ideas what is better than anything else? Do I avoid creamy ones?
Heyyllllppp (Penelope Pitstop styleee)

lantanna

Thanks guys!


We have one friend in common, to be fair I had already checked him out on FB but hadn't sent him a friend request!


Still haven't heard anything which is most unlike him as I normally get a good morning text at some stage long before now.


But I won't be sending anything else!


I'm having very negative thoughts lol


: ) xx

Just looking at that menu has made me hungry!! lol


If it was me I would prob just call it a flexi day and have what I wanted within reason. I def wouldn't have pizza or a big plate of pasta though.


If you want to be really good, skip the starter and order the Caesar Salad with Chicken or Salmon & ask them to put the dressing, cheese & croutons on the side.


You could go for the steak or the chicken, again get the dressing on the side and maybe order a side salad to go with.


Personally though If its a treat to go out and not a regular occurrence I would just have a little of what you fancy and be super on it the rest of the week!!

Thanks for the advice Iantanna, as I'm only in my first week of SW I do want to try and be good, and have a loss on Monday. I'm a vegetarian, so it's a bit more difficult. Wonder if the tomato based risotto would be OK? Or I could ask them to do a half portion of something with a salad, perhaps I'll call them and ask.

I'm overwhelmed at everyone's kindness and concern. Thank you especially to lucky-legs for the beautiful poems- I have to confess to sobbing my heart out when I read them but being a literature student at the moment I am especially grateful to see such beautiful poetry right now. I have made the decision to attend her funeral as I couldn't not say goodbye. As I've said she was a very dear friend and I will never forget her and the impression she made on my life.
Thanks again everyone and I'll speak to you all again soon.
Night all xxxx

Stay away from anything creamy but tomato based stuff is ok. There was a feature in a magazine a while ago and it suggested melon to start followed by napolitana/arribiatta pasta for main Xx
