Welcome Penguin :hello: you've found a lovely place to come and get just the support you're looking for, and probably a whole lot more besides.
KPC, sorry to hear about your wobble, sounds like a biggy, hope you're both doing ok xx:grouphug:
Well done on the positive thinking Wendy, that's half the battle. Kymrob, any chance that a slice of pizza can be enjoyed so that you don't feel deprived and yet still feel 'on plan'?
Vix, I say go for it, if you've been mates for 7 years already the chances are you'll be able to wibble on quite happily in person. BB and I certainly had no trouble in that department. What I found most amusing about the experience is that WL and moneysaving, which you would naturally assume to be our two 'links' to each other, weren't a topic of conversation once! We did indeed have a fab time and, of course, BB (the woman not the transsexual stripper :rotfl:) is just as lovely as you already know she is. I'm looking forward to meeting the rest of you now, but BB will always be my 'first'Oh, and she is looking wonderful too - I think an updated piccy might be in order BB x

Hey Missy, good to see ya, perhaps I can distract you from the dull listings for a second to ask if you're interested in the meet this summer? Just collecting email addys from anyone who might be up for it - that goes for anyone else who fancies it too - then I'll send the first email to everyone next week.The 1,000 Day Challenge:Feb 16, 2016500/30,000

Have PMed you re the meet up Bails. How are things going for you in Brighton (other than meeting the lovely BB?)
My exercise is feeling really stale at the moment. I have three cardio machines, weights, couple of DVDs and a few other exercise bits in my home gym but it's all feeling so samey, even though I mix it up as much as I possibly can.
I'm so desperate for better weather so I can get out and about on my real bike and do other outdoorsy things! Think all the joy and freedom of skiing last week has given me proper cabin fever now0 -
I know what you mean about the weather Missy but sometimes you've just got to think s** it and go out anyway - we live in England and that's just the way it is! There's nothing like being blown about or getting dead muddy to make you feel alive
OH came back today covered in the stuff, and still looking sexy, but then I like my men a little rough :rotfl:
Brighton is going really well thanks, having a lovely time! Dare I say it, we may have turned a corner with the MiL (although as I type I can hear her stressing downstairs -people coming for dinner, she gets uptight about these things; keeping my fingers crossed I don't inadvertently get it in the neck...)The 1,000 Day Challenge:Feb 16, 2016500/30,000
