    Part of the Furniture Combo Breaker
    Evening All

    Away on a course for the next couple of days, so checking in now. Weight wise as it was dietictian day today and less than a week back from Egypt, my weight was still up from my pre Holiday weighin. Suffice to say and to save even more confusion, I will post a proper weigh in next week. Last time I seemed to casue no end of confusion :confused:

    Anyway the dietictian is more than happy with me, she understands my thought process in that I am finding it hard to stop, and she is encouraging me to settle into a new thought process. I go back to see her just before Christmas.

    Bails, hope you do stick around, however the banter king seems to be taking a break at the moment, however if you like to leave your name and nick at the beep..........

    Grannynise, I am indeed one and same, havent posted much to be fair on Trip, but my report i half done. going to Amsterdam in a few weeks.

    (((((((((Brighton Belle))))))))) special delivery :)

    KPC, I feel the same, my IT qualifications is well out of date, for a number of reasons, not least that I was at college in the mid 80's :)

    I missed out on the swap boxes, not paying attention I guess, anyway ladies, I do hope you enjoy fiddling and unwrapping your boxes tomorrow

    Sorry for the late update.

    I got my swap box. To my shame I was totally disorganised with mine for various reasons & went to post it on Friday & realised I didnt have the recipients address. Couldnt get it til last night :( I did however send it by Special Delivery today so it should be there by 11am tomorrow... story of my life running at the last minute

    I forgot to put a note in with it which I only discovered when I came home and found the card lying in the kitchen!!!!

    So Ill PM the person I sent to and mark the PMs not to be opened til the box is lol

    Gawd Im rubbish at things :(

    Starlight
    , I did exactly the same thing with my address so you're not alone honey - as long as we learn for next time eh?;)

    As for giving up the WL, thank you for your kind words - it's a little complex but in a nutshell I have too many shoulds/oughts in my life and not enough coulds/wants ( I'm sure people can relate). Even things that used to be 'wants', like swimming for example, are now becoming 'shoulds' and then I don't do them... so it's more about readjusting the focus really. My priority is getting well and while the two aren't mutually exclusive, a subtle shift in focus will help both of them, I hope.

    So I'll still be aiming to eat healthily and exercise when I am able to and want to. I may not weigh in for a while but we'll see how I feel. But I will definitely still be around on here - I love being part of this community so try and keep me away! (that's not an invitation to the horrible people messing with the site btw!).

    No weigh in for me today Efrieze
    (see above). Thanks for all your efforts with the chart in advance.

    Off to a 'job interview' (ie informal chat) in an English dept later so I'll let you know how it goes.

    Here's to a good week for us all :T xx

  • One pound loss this week. Ok I suppose but I felt lighter than that if you know what I mean!!

    Well done to everyone for just surviving without MSE, let alone losing too. I didn't realise how much I checked on everyone's progress until I couldn't!

    Im back! Hello everyone
    Sorry I have been so quiet but I have been in hospital with appendicitis and really not up to doing anything other than lie on my couch and eat so the weight loss has been a big gain so will not be posting again (at least my weight!) until i get below where i was before.

    Anyway, got my swap box off eventually but also forgot a card!!! I really think i have lost the plot!!

    What time are we opening them? I have to go to work in a bit and its staring at me!!!

    Welcome back Pokey, hope you are feeling better after your op. You don't need to post your weight but stay with us for motivation though.

    I don't know what time we can open them either! I might wait until tonight when everyone's got theirs...?
