    Well done Missyg! That kind of weight loss is what i dream of!

    Hope everyone is ok. Im still yet to complete christmas shopping. This year has been very difficult in terms of my boyfriend. Normally he is so easy, but this year im still stuck. A free sample of tenna man came though the post this morning, just in time for his stocking!

    In terms of my healthy eating approach, i you may aswell not ask. I had a chinese yesterday, a hot dog ect. The day before that was a bacon roll and then chips, sausages, hash brown job. I have also been i'll with a cold, must have caught it from you suggs! Im still hoping to have lost because on friday did alot of steps/went to my dance class, sat worked al day and sunday spent most of it walking around town so fingers cross it will be a maintain if nothing else!

    Welcome to the new people aswell!

    Thanks Delly for those totally scrummy pics! I feel the need to go searching for similar pics but i must resist! i have to clean the bathroom (oh yes!) and create a grotto for my boyfriend in the conservatory as promised.

    Im off to boots now, more money coming out of my purse yet again!
  • well done missyg, well we are all a busy bunch aren't we. Managed to get a day off work, cos' there's no heating!! hooray, and I'm too busy wrapping and tidying (and baking mince pies - shh!) to eat! (except for the mince pies - maybe just one!)
    My secret santa parcel is being sent off today so thats me sorted - ooh how exciting!
    take care all - I'm off again now xx
    If you don't have something nice to say don't bother saying anything at all.

    Hi all - thanks for your kind messages about TTC I'm feeling a lot better today. Really stressed cos the terrible two's stole my angel of a DD last week & she is now really doing my head in & won't do anything I want her to do. She had a xmas party this morning & wouldn't get dressed eventually after pinning her down managed that & then she wouldn't put her coat & shoes on running around the room shouting "no not yet, not time yet" & "I don't think so" Finally made it there on time & she was as good as gold until it came to putting on her coat to come home. Then I needed to walk round to the shop to get some bread & milk for lunch & we then had the fight over the coat.

    I came home from work last night & Maddie was singing with her playschool at a church service. I met them there cos I came straight from work spent most of the night running around after here while her dad just sat there. & I stupidly said I work tonight 3 hours overtime. I was in bed by 9.30 last night & think I'll come home tonight at 9.00 have something to eat & go straight to bed.

    missyg the same thing happened when I was trying for DD. No period for 10 months then they came back but every other month but when they did come back it only took 3 months to fall, so I kinda stupidly thought the same thing would happen again but life's not like that. I have decided to go back to the docs after christmas & find out for definate if I do have PCOS & what the next steps are for me. He just told me to lose weight - I've lost 17lbs since I last went & totm has been regular since then although long cycles so will see what he has to say this time.

    Anyway gonna go & pay all my bills now that my new bank card has finally arrived after 4 weeks of waiting for it. Then I will try & figure out how to put my pics on here. I'm on facebook too if anyone wants to find me there. Oh & I better wrap my secret santa so I can go post it might not make it in todays post though so apologies if it doesn't arrive in time. I'm not organised at all - my house is such a tip and no matter how much I do it never seems to look any better. Right am going now got loads to do before i go to work at 6.00.

    Bye Bye Em xx

    Congratulations Missyg!! I'm really happy for you, and am pleased you've decided to stop there; there's really nothing more of you to lose! Your body is obviously pleased with the extra fuel you're allowing yourself. Good luck with the maintenance plan x

    ...Petichor, I have some funny gifs, do you upload with tinypic??? I only seem to get a still pic not a animated one??.

    They should load, but I'm having a problem with tinypic too for some unknown reason, so I've resorted back to ImageShack . I look forward to seeing them :D . Well done with the Rugby too :j...

    Well done Dragon, really pleased for you! You deserve it!

    Okay, so just a bit of fun - my boyfriend and I were sitting down at lunchtime today with 40p left between us (in two 20p s). So I challenged him to see who could make the most money with their 20p by the end of January! The only rule is you can't put any more money with your 20p initially... Now, being great MSErs, I thought you might have some ideas to help me??

  • It isn't so bad. Yeah, I'm carrying a bit, and i need to get my act together but it's really not the end of the world if it takes me a bit. It would be better if i wasn't carrying the weight but I'm going to stop beating myself up because it's there - because, let's face it, i enjoyed putting it there!..xx

    What a very sensible attitude to take katie, it's when we run away from these situations that makes them worse. If we stay with them and tackle them when the time/situation allows etc then we won't fail :j :j ...

    ...This was supposed to be the final part of a post, but I shut the wrong browser window :o

    Ok this is me!! These were taken at my cousins wedding in Sept 06 my DD was 13 months then she's now 28 months. I put on nearly 1 stone since then but this is the most recent pic I have of me & I've grown my hair long since then too.
