Well, I'm just here for the banter and a chance to talk bollox, and we also do weight loss, WATER drinking (I'm the 'ficcial water monitor, and I have a badge), and heart to hearts..

I am the Mittz(not Mitts), I need to lose about 10lb, but get my head straight in the process..

I am sure one of my lovely companions will be along shortly......

I am Fanny, I have a long way to go with weight loss.

Tonight we are having roast duck (using up freezer food) new potatoes and salad.

I dip in and out of the thread.

Alice, I nearly scrolled wildly down the page to find the potato smiley next to the new message box. I was > < this much excited.

Trills, if you don't fancy dinner, have some supper.

Hey Yuno.

God I have a hangover after 3 bloody smirnoff ices. The shame

And lets just say that the real reason two of my friends are getting divorced came out last night. I always thought (generalisation) a man never left unless he had somewhere 'warm' to go to and my friend told me last night that the fucker cheated on her, hence them splitting up. Not quite the story he gave me

Any ideas why I'm awash with puke come and help me in chat if you can.

Need to lose 3, 4, maybe 5 stone, have lost count.

Mittz · 25/07/2010 19:56

But when I put the Goldfish on my lap to stroke, it goes all limp .

I am quite a tactile person and like having someone to touch, hold, stroke, hug.. The DC's are lovely but just have a gap in my life. And although it is man shaped, I haven't earned my Man licence again yet so can't have one.

Helloooo Fanny . I fancy Duck....

potato

Fluff that is dire - you need some practice.

No to a dog Mittz - they toilet train quicker than babies but then they never grow up, you can't take them as many places as you can take children, and will never be able to make you a cup of tea.

wastingaway · 25/07/2010 19:58

Mittz, you need a teddy bear.

Evening all

Back from an eventful holiday where DD2 cut her head open and needed 3 stitches and DD1 got an eye infection and bad eczema flare ups. Otherwise all good . Weather was lovely, and great to catch up with our friends and spend most days reading and jumping in and out of the pool .

Back to reality and DD2 has reluctantly gone into a big girls bed, so baby days are nearing an end. A bit and [happy] all in one.

Have come back somehow with an additional 9lbs attached to me so will need some motivational kicks up the arse please. Mittz, feel free to do the honours of kick ass/bad ass trainer

Welcome Yuno and to everyone else

CrispyTheCrisp · 25/07/2010 20:04

Oh and Fluff, you are a TOTAL lightweight!!

Mittz as much as I love our Pooch she is a lot of work.

She's an extra member of the family and we have to take her needs into consideration.

If we go for a day out she needs to come with us or we need to be back early for her.

If we are away we have to schlep halfway up the country so she can stay with FIL as she is miserable in Kennels (She is technically a rescue dog so has abandonment issues.)

She needs around two hours of exercise a day, whether it is raining or snowing.

And the hair gets everywhere. And wet dog is the worst smell ever.

If that's not put you off and you can afford vaccinations microchipping and insurance then go for it!

We don't pick her up until Saturday and I bloody miss the stubborn cow.

Mittz · 25/07/2010 20:10

Do you think people might talk if I become the mad woman who goes everywhere with a Teddy Bear though?!

Ooohhh.. the Cinema, Alton Towers...

Hmmmm.. the hair is an off putting one. I had two bad experiences when I was pregnant with DD and have literally only fondled the ears of a spaniel called Dave since then. He does have the most lush ears.

ID.. only kidding, we hear you loud and clear!

BitterAndTwistedChoreDodger · 25/07/2010 20:18

Was wondering where she was Mittz, I've not seen her.

Fluff you are a lightweight.

Crispy your holiday sounds eventful. Are you all ok now? And where did you go?

BitterAndTwistedChoreDodger · 25/07/2010 20:19

Gah! X-posts

Mittz get a dog if it will make you happy and if you will make it happy.

wastingaway · 25/07/2010 20:28

You could have a bag made of teddy bear fur.

I had a mate who sucked her thumb and snuggled tags, up to about 27 I think. She was cool.

CrispyTheCrisp · 25/07/2010 20:28

LOL Bitter, France again, and yes, eventful once more . Maybe i should suggest the Maldives to MrCrispy?

Mittz, you have failed so far in your kick ass role

Crispy!

Mittz · 25/07/2010 20:35

OK.. you asked for it Crispy .

OK, so you had a good holiday, fine. Easy to yield to temptation, but you are back now so what is your plan? Give up at the first hurdle and let that weight sit and possibly grow? or are we going to see the motivated, exercising Gym bunny that we know and love coming on here to regale tales of lengths swum, K's run and be the overall inspirational Crispy we are in awe of?

Those pics of you in the white jeans were hot Lady, so no messing, get back into action and lets hear of your first loss ASAP please.
