Hi ya guys!
Welcome to kunster or whatever the name was. Im also a student, and in need of loosing some weight but its on the back burner for a wee bit while i study, and because in all honesty i wanna stuff myself silly with eggs
I did the last ever presentation i might ever do today. I only got 58 for it and im gutted. He was totally nit picky and said that if i had corrected a few silly misatakes he would have put it up to 60 which would have been a 2.1 grrr. But away, one essay down, 3 to go!
Neighbours start in 8 minutes! lots of posts to read through s o i'll come back later.
bye lovelly people0 -
thankyou to bails victory katiepoppycat and suzyqu for your advice and support , I tried to think back to when things started going wrong and when I started gaining instead of losing and I pinpointed it back to my birthday last year. I was very upset because an innocent remark I had made about my DDs weight gain had been repeated back to her and was taken in totally the wrong way, we were both upset , and it ruined my birthday we've smoothed over the cracks now ,but weight is never mentioned ,either mine nor hers its just that I've always had weight problems and didn't want her to suffer like I have she's roughly the same size as me now but at the time I must have been slimmer . she insists she's fine how she is and isn't dieting . I must have come over as smug but honestly didn't mean to,the person who had repeated it was my youger DD [who is very slim] and she had said it in all innocence not realising the upset it would cause P.S. both DDs are adults in their 30s not teenagers or anything,so maybe subconcisly[not spelt right] I'm stopping myself losing weight on purpose does this make sensel:T Never Too Old to learn :T0

Thanks victory, bails, Pet and anyone else. The cold isnt that ba, but that is 3 since Christmas, odd that the less fat I am, the more colds I get
This one seems to be a head cold, I get dizzy and all bunged up! MrsSuggs and her son has it too, so I am in good company. My children have all turned up today, as usual its all the comments relayed on from the ex to me, I do try t ignore it all, but it does get to me sometimes. Still onwards and upwards as they say.
Sorry not so talkavtive, I am in that place where I hardly know what to say these days, except welcome to the newbies

Suggs: must be difficult. Hugs hugs and more hugs coming your way.
Wendy: I totally understand about not wanting to loose any weight due to what was said, but your daughter old enough now to decide to loose weight or not, and that shouldnt hold you back from doing what you want to do because of one comment. Perhaps you two need to do some more chatting on the subject?
i was in the local paper today, arguing with my fellow residents about a new night club in my city. It is now known that vicki, a student aged 21 gets wrecked every weekend, when i really was using it as hyperbole. Now that is a word i havent used for many a year! Rock on.0 -
Man, la senza have only got a blimming half price sale on.
Did i tell you that i counted how many bras i had? about 35. One for every day of the month and some. I counted because i realised i have bought two new bras of late, and havent even got round to wearing them yetI wont tell you how many knickers i have, cos it will be alot more than 35. How shameful. I cant actually afford to loose or put on weight! never thought about that before.
Anyway, spending the day with matt tomorrow to look in la senza no doubt ha. Were going out for a meal too. Should be good.
Have a good friday people, remember to eat fish tomorrow! x0 -
Well done Kymrob and Ampersand !!!
Hugs Wendy 1947 , I do undertsnad how you feel about your weight and not wanting to lose it because of what other people have said. My sister and I have an aunt who always makes comments about our weight in public and it makes us not want o go out anywhere with her and my sister has felt that she wasn't going to lose weight because of her. My DD is a size 12 and when aunt was meeting us for lunch she asked waiter if there were two large portly ladies in there yet! DD was really upset and wants to try to lose weight.
other people can be so harmful.business mortgage £0))''(+ Barclay's business kitchen loan £0=Total paid off was £96105 PPI claimed and received £13527

Gosh, it's quiet here today. I imagine this is becasue having got up at 5am to make homemade hot cross buns, you've now all collapsed back to bed?
Belated well done to kymrob and ampersand. And vix - you are doing well still maintaining
Petrichor - really good that you've worked out the real figures rather than the imagined ones - yeah, and what a result. Well done you.
Efrieze - we can't and mustn't ever complete with a male partner in the weight loss stakes - we will never win!: the critters are designed different and it just comes off quicker I'm told, if you are both doing the same thing. But your gym effort is impressive.Good luck with that - maybe that will make the differnce for you.
Big welcome Kunster - do come back and join in, you are very welcome. Let us know how you plan to achieve the weight loss you want - some great advice from petrichor on choosing a way that suits your lifestyle, and not giving up all your treats or this won't be sustainable in the long term.
Suggs - do you not feel very chatty becasue you feel you're in a 'holding place' with your own weight journey, or because of life stresses? Really sorry to hear about the long distance unpleasantness from your ex. Totally out of order for any parent to send unpleasant messages via the kids. I'm glad you've got the support of Mrs S on hand but anything you have to say here is always very welcome,be it welcoming newbies, 'aving a larff, or needing to tell us what's going on for you.
Wendy - family misunderstandings can be so hurtful, I know, even when you really care abut each other these things happen. I'm really impressed you traced back your weight gain to that incident and it sounds very likely to me that you are spot on. The mind is a many layered complex thing. I think now you have identified the source of your trouble, dealing with it will become easier. Everytime now you reach for food that doesn't fall in your weightloss plan, perhaps take a moment to run through your mind why you are self defeating like this. If it is not possible to talk further with your daughter, then perhaps think of the benefits to her of having you around fit and healthy for many years rather than the 'looking better than you thing' (which I know it isn't about) Losing weight will be a gift to your heart and lesson the risk of strokes as you get older. And keep posting here - never feel ashamed to do that, even if you can't make the WI at your club - talk with us, we will alway support you.I try to take one day at a time, but sometimes several days attack me at once0 -

Fab, fab post BB. Well done Wendy on finding the root of the problem, I hope this now frees you up to start losing again.
Suggsy, I imagine your kids are too young for this but if they're old enough, is there any way to ask not to be informed of what your ex is saying? It completely depends on what and how it's being passed onto you of course, just a thought. Hugs coming your way.
BB, about to clear my PM box so I can msg you.The 1,000 Day Challenge:Feb 16, 2016500/30,000
