    Heya Weegie hun. [[hugs]]

    I'm 5'1" so I'm quite tiny.lol.

    I'm not sure what it's making me think to be honest. I'm just finding it hard to grasp the fact that for my height I'm meant to be 58kg which is 9st. That seems heavy to me, but maybe that's because I'm never been that heavy before.

    I'm at hunts.mind next on Friday, because it's bank holiday on Monday so they don't open. =/ I'm also going to be having weekly meetings with Janette because people are "worried" about me. =/ And I had a panic attack yesterday in town and everything just got to me so I burst out crying.....right in the middle of town.
    And I'm on antibiotics too. =/

    On the plus side I saw Nikki, and I managed to ride in a car for the first time in almost two years, which was hard but I did it.

    I'm rambling. Sorry.

    I think rambling's fine, it's 6am ;)

    only 5ft1? I thought you were taller than that. Maybe I've seen photos of you in boots or something, or maybe I'm just mental. :)

    I was always naturally skinny/skinny as a result of gut problems. I was under 9 stone until maybe 2 years ago, and I'm 5'9"-ish, so...

    These days I'm straddling normal and slightly overweight BMI. Wii fit hasn't told me I'm fat so I'm cool with that. :D

    A little underweight or a little overweight is fine, but too much either way and it starts to get unhealthy.

    I wouldn't get too worked up about things though. Just go to hunts.mind and be honest and listen to the people. They know what they're on about. Just try to relax in the meantime.

    I usually wear boots with my goth clothing...really big boots.lol.

    My BMI is 16 according to the doctor. =/
    Is Wii Fit any good? I really want to get it, but first I need to get a Wii.lol.

    I opened up to Janette a bit yesterday. I think she was more shocked than I was.lol.
    I like it at hunts.mind. I have friends there so it makes it easier to go now and my incentive is that I'll see Nikki. :)

    Wii Fit's cool yeah. :) I spend more time playing Mario Kart mind you, but Wii Fit is probably more useful. For instance, I now know that I have no sense of balance whatsoever. :D

    Hi all,
    Hope everyone has a good day today (even if the weather is a bit crappy) L So much for a Barbie eh? Never mind.

    LadyM – I am so sorry to hear that you had such a shock! I hope that things are looking p for you from here!
    Do you have New Rocks?? I have the ones with demons on the front and I lurrrrrrrve them! J
    Wii Fit is brill by the way. I am thinking of going for a jog with my Fiance and the dogs this morning and then when I get back I think I will do an hour of muscle and yoga exercises J
    Weekie.Geek – Mine asked me if I found myself tripping over a lot!!! Lol
    I counted one day out of curiosity and I tripped about 17 times!!! Lol Getting better though. My centre of gravity is quite close now lol
    My BMI is just a fraction under ‘overweight’ trying very hard to make sure it doesn’t go up.
    Angstdata – I hope you managed to get some sleep at some point last night too J

    Juno – I also can’t help you. My finances are everywhere at the moment. Me and my Fiance might have a sit down with a cup of tea and do the budget thingy again on Monday. It’s horrible the way prices of everything are going up and our wages aren’t. It’s becoming so difficult. L
    Anyway good luck on your essay x
    Top_drawer – Huni don’t put too much pressure on yourself! You sound just like me!! I studied psychology for a little while too, but ended up dropping it. Really wish I hadn’t had to though L
    Meyore – I hope the two of you have a wonderful weekend!!!! J

    Slowlyfading – I hope you feel better today x

    Beforehollywood – Not long left for you and then you are free!! Hope you enjoy your days off! J
    Poppycracker – Good luck in your interview!!! Excited for you! What kind of job is it?
    Anyway better get dressed now before I lose that tiny bit of motivation I have!!

    Tiff I haven’t forgotten that you wrote to me the other day. Just trying to pull myself together in order to reply to it as it is such a long post and for some reason I don’t seem to be able to get my words out!! Lol

    Much love to you x
    Dream of being mortgage free....

    I want to get a Wii anyway, so when I do Wii Fit will defo be next on the list.lol.

    I'm on antibiotics at the moment and they are making me so tired - even more tired than before.lol.

    The damn thing asked my little sister if I looked like I'd put on weight! Cheek of the thing.

    I've only played it a few times so I dunno how it decided I'd put on weight. :rotfl:

    Afternoon all you lovely people, hope everyone is ok and having a good day. Woke up late today as it had a bad nights sleep. Feel even more tired now.

    Shaz hope you have a lovely holiday hun. Make sure you have a good time.

    Rose hope your ok hunni.

    Anni, hope you managed to get some sleep. I remember when I weighed 40kgs. I am 5ft3 so I was dangerously under weight. Maybe you could ask your gp to prescribe you a supplement drink. They really helped me. Its called fortisip( i know we are not allowed to say on here) or you could always buy some from the chemist or boots. They come in different flavours. Its like a milkshake but full or vitamins and all tat. Make sure you do that when you next see your doc love, coz it does help.

    Hugs to everyone.xx
