Hello everyone - haven't been at the computer for a good few days - it was DD1's 18th birthday over the weekend and then on Monday I had to go to hospital with my heart (AF - palpitations) so it has been all go. They only kept me in for one day so it wasn't too bad, and I had remembered to take a book with me for once!

Have just caught up with the posts. Mrs M - I don't suppose that you are reading this but I am thinking about you and your poor sister and all your family - there really aren't any words at a time like this.

Toni - hope your Dad is okay.

Saversarn - sorry to hear about your dog. Our dog, a little black scottie, is 12 now and he really gets on my nerves sometimes because he has become a bit cantankerous as he has got older and he also wanders off. However he was really poorly last year with a bad ear infection and I was a total wreck - took him up to the emergency vet twice in a total panic as I thought he was on his last legs and I couldn't believe how upset I was.

Food has been totally rubbish for the last week and I didn't get weighed on Friday. I joined the online Slimming World (body Optimise) tonight because I had a voucher and it was no joining fee and I am going to give it a try for a few weeks, still doing it OS - making from scratch and all that, but following the general red and green guidelines.

:T Congratulations to all the losers and STSers and commiserations to the gainers.

Frogga - enjoy your pause - how far you have come - it's brilliant to hear that you are so positive and focused where once you would have been wallowing in binge food by now!:T

Right, it's official, today is my last day at work. It seems like it's been a long time comming but I'm really sad Don't know why as I'm always moaning about how bored I am :rolleyes: Got my funny X stitched peom that I made them all about life there so I hope it makes them laugh..

Savvy , sorry about your little doggy. A friend of Tadpole 2 is not allowed a pet incase he gets too upset when it passes on. They break your heart don't they?
But it's "Better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all" :A

HOpe you are all recovered RS from your little spell in Hospital. Hope the party was good too :T TXT me if you need me Good luck with the Slimming world , I know it does work , my pal has lost 7 stone since September :T I'll be TXTing you on Mon as I'll really need the encouragement to un pause
Tappy :hello: 2 lb is nothing, it'll be off again in a week easy peasy

Saversarn + Frogga :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: I never thought about the Rocky connection when I posted:rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: I just nearly fell off my chair!

Saversarn - ((((hugs)))) hope your not too hungover this morning. Pets (I have cats) break your heart don't they, I've lost 3 in the last few years, 2 run over and one who had to be put to sleep. I have them buried in my bit of garden under a rose bush and I still talk to them sometimes............

I feel bleeeuuuurgghhhh this morning, I'll not bore you with the details but chocolate and ice cream were involved:o It's worse today as it's my day on the bus so I had to leave home at stupid o clock and suffer the bloke behind me breathing last nights stale beer and curry fumes all over me:mad: I did have a 25 min walk though, I couldn't face the second bus:rolleyes:

I had a boiled egg and toast for brekkie, I have couscous and chickpeas for lunch, fruit for snacks and will have something fairly light for tea as it's dancing tonight :dance: :dance: :dance: YAY!!!!!

As I'm not going to SW tonight I weighed myself this morning and have gained a well deserved 1lb :eek: which I thought would be more!

I'm going to try and watch myself over the weekend and then I can enjoy my few days away - camping holidays and dieting don't mix

Taplady - only 21/2lbs you'll get that off in no time

Back later folks :A

Morning all!

saversarn - sorry to hear about your little dog - as you may know we lost our little jack russell not long ago so I know how heartbreaking it is x

Frogga - hope you enjoy your last day at work!

Rockie - I'm dancing tonight too - Tap for me:dance:

RS - glad you're back!:j hope you get on well with the SW online.

Have not decided on my eats today yet but have had 28g fruit and fibre for breakfast with a banana and skimmed milk. I need to shift at least a pound next week or I will have to start paying again at SW cos I'll be 3lbs or more over target:eek:

Hope you all have a good day!

Hi guys,

Have had a rotten couple of days & diet has gone to pot a bit. Have also been invited out to dinner tomorrow so tp be honest have written off this week a bit & am going to start afresh on monday. Am going back to basics & am going to start follow food optimising. I've always done it a bit half-heartedly but have made the effort to read the book through & am going to start properly on monday.

Am also going to join the gym which scares me but I think could be good. I hate being hot & am struggling to exercise right now as it is so humid right now. A nice air conditioned gym could be what I need! Also shelling out the money should encourage me, I can just about afford it but I won't want to see my money go to waste.

Can someone let me know what our July challenge is going to be? With a revamped diet & exercise routine, I am determined to hit target next month!
