    Good for you, bubbs, jay and beanie.

    I’ll join the kid-lovefest too. Both of my are pleasant and sociable too. But not a snowflake’s chance in hell I’ll get back to a pre-pregnancy 7st 3lbs!

    Oh, kathrynha, they are mean to you. You deserve any haribo that come your way.

    Echoed by me.

    And me too kathryna but so pleased you managed to get home for the weekend. :)

    Great loss jay . Well done! :T

    Choir repertoire sounds good gettingtheresometime . My brother sings Male Voice and throughly enjoy their concerts. Myfannwy is a big favourite. :)

    Have a good time in Liverpool MrsR :)

    I had an accidental Green day yesterday. Planned pub meal was postponed so came home and had my favourite egg and chips. :D Just as well because Speed is a bit thin on the ground as used up all fresh stuff before going away.

    We're off to Poland on Sunday for the week. Today and yesterday eating out. It'll be a case of being good when I can until I get back. Probably good breakfasts only. ;)

    I can't remember my pre pregnancy weight (it was 27 years ago) but apart from a brief period after the birth of my first, I've never been that weight since!

    My eldest is 28, and I was the same... a few weeks in my jeans and then everything expanded!

    Kathryn, i had to drink something like that when i was tested for diabetes, and not leave the surgery for 2 hrs!! then have another blood test
    Hope you soon get sorted xx

    I had that blood test when pregnant. This was a much worse drink, although my memory could be being selective. This was a nutrient drink.
