Hello!

I'm Pants, and I'm pants at sticking to my diet healthy eating plan.

I rejoined Slimming World last week, as it really worked for me last year, but I've put most of the weight on. Want to lose at least 2st. Dh now weighs less than me envy since he took up boxing, and the weight has just dropped off him.....

I'm 40 in 3 weeks, dh has booked me a party, friend coming to stay that weekend, so need to stick to it!!! Also on 3rd cycle of ttc, so would like to lose weight for that too.

Plus I love to gossip grin!

Hello i am Alice and i am so invisible, you actually can't see me not that i haven't had time to post grin

I had a huge baby 12 days ago and weigh 11st 9lbs (nearly a stone lost since having him now) and need to get below 10st from a healthy BMI point of view, but would like to shrink my waist to 30inches or less (again, mostly to do with a health pov, but also because i want to be slim and beautiful grin)

Hey Alice. smile

That's what I weighed after having DD.I am down to 9 stone 2 now, not much more to go. Except, er DD is nearly 2, not 12 days blush

Welcome Pants, good to have you aboard. If i did more healthy eating and less chatting I may have had a 30 inch waist by now.grin

Have no fear,the delectable prime is here.

I am wasteofprime and I eat too much.

I want to lose about 6lbs as my belly is too jelly.

I have finally got back to walking and have vague plans to break into a jog at some point.

Welcome Pants smile and Hey-hey to Alice.

wasteofprime Tue 31-Aug-10 16:54:23

Hi, I'm Hairy and I need to lose at least a stone (mostly off my belly and arse) - and am starting to follow Slimming World again tomorrow. I've just made bean and pulse salad, and have a collection of fruit to take to work for snacks.

Good luck everyone!

Hello Hairy.

Just opened post (was so excited mouse,forgot the rest) and I have a college interview on Tuesday!!!!!!

And the letter makes it sound like just a formality.
I could be a Mature Student
smile smile smile

TotalChaos Tue 31-Aug-10 19:44:08

hello ladies and welcome to hairy and harassed. I'm 12 stone (not 11 stone 13 grrr) and need to be 10 stone for health etc reasons.

prime - ooooh fingers crossed re:studenting, what sort of course you after?

had a nice time in town, helped DS make a boat for the liverpool biennial at the Tate, will be v. exciting to see if his one is visible in the final display piece (they are aiming for 1000 boats IIRC) so may be a challenge to spot grin

wasteofprime Tue 31-Aug-10 19:51:02

Hi TC - its all about folklore and cultural heritage and creative writing.

I shall dedicate my first poem/novel to the thread. wink

The boat thing sounds great,bet your DS had a ball.

TotalChaos Tue 31-Aug-10 20:05:55

yes, the boat was good fun, he did one boat in ochre type pallet colours (all the exhibit boats were to be done in earth type colours, as artist putting them together is Aussie, to give it an Aboroginal art type feel), and another to take home in bright primary colours.

sounds v. interesting the course - are you going to be touching on Irish language in it?

wasteofprime Tue 31-Aug-10 20:16:42

TC - I bloody hope not!! The DCs talk in Irish sometimes and Im lucky if I catch 1 word out of 20.
