    Decided to join in with the whole photo thing............

    First one is me with one of my nephews in Yokohama (he's 6 years old and super cute!) That lego snake took FOREVER to make - we were both working on it for almost an hour :rotfl:

    Second one is me at work (had to pixel of cute kid as we're not allowed to upload pics of our students!).

    thank you bright-idea and vix!

    The reason the snake took so long is because lego has become super sophisicated since I was a kid -that particular set had interconnecting "sections" so that the snake can actually slither along when you move it! :D

    hmmm, is it just me spotting a pattern here?

    we all insist we need to lose weight because x, y or z. Then we post pics, and everyone agrees that we all look great. Do you think this says something about how bad our bodyimage is in general?

    just a thought . . . . . .
  • hi guys

    first off - GRATS to all the loser - and some great pics.

    i would gladly post pics (if us men can do that thing) my old pic (taken in Oct last year) you could clearly see a huge belly, now not so much im hoping.

    but you guys would be the judges.

    and i think a guide to members/diets etc would be a great idea for those newbies amongst us (like me)

    oh for those who have been following my lack of calories (as i was on 1200 the nuaghty boy i was)

    i had shredded wheat mini's with fruit for breakfast

    and instead of my normal salad roll for lunch had a roll on salad and 2 slices of turkey :-D

    got some almonds to add to my salad tonight for dinner (2 tble spoons) and ill probably have a little more chicken than usual.

    i didnt buy an afternoon snack though - which was bad.

    but i am going on the bike before dinner so its all (should be) good.

    just hoping i dont put on lots of wieght trying to increase my calories everyday (when im only on the bike 3 times a week)

    its down to self happiness

    and judging

    sorry to say but its true.

    someone comes up to me and says - "i need to lose weight" ill look and say "but why, you look great" and its because you dont (or shouldnt) judge people as harshly as you judge yourself.

    remember - everyone is their own worst critic.

    i have been told i look good, but i hate my belly so thats why i want to lose.

    its just one of those things.
