    Righto... I'm in and aaaarrrrrgggggggghhhhhhhh I can't find my tape measure, how bl**dy annoying!

    I'm currently weighing in at 70kilos, or 11st in 'old money'.

    At 5ft 2ins I need to lose some so I'm hoping that posting it so publically will help me lose some.

    I'd love to be a size 12 again but after 2 babies I have a feeling my hips will stop that but if I can at least lose the weight eh?

    I'm up for a Friday weigh in, though maybe best to start in the new year with the parties coming up?

    How will the debt side work?

    How will the
  • Hi I'm in!! I've put on at least a stone since I quit smoking and have succumbed and bought size 16 jeans (when I was "littler" all those years ago - I swore I would never buy size 14 jeans ........... ha,ha oh for the innocence of youth)! I'm gonna get the Colleen Nolan DVD cause I like her and I lost weight before with Rosemary Conley. Now in true IA confessional style I have yet to start on any of the Christmas eats so I won't start proper until next week - I'll be brave and post my measurements at the first "measure-in" next Friday.
    Good luck all - love and hugs

  • Simply don't make them like that anymore - nor the lycra pants (much to dh's dismay - lol)!
    Promise not to say the CN word again! But I think I may take up the disco dancing again - come on ladies put your handbags in the middle and off we go - all in the spirit of "keeping fit" you understand;

    d i s c o, singing d i s c o
    singing d desirable
    singing i incredible
    singing s super sexy
    singing c such a cutie
    singing o oooooo

    OMG the shame :p
