SHINEY Happy People, Gettin Skinny as a Beanpole

[HolyGuacamole]

Erm......Hi

Welcome to the Shiney weight loss thread. Some of us are trying to lose a little and some of us are trying to lose a lot. Either way, join in the fun! It is a VERY fast moving thread!

Shiney is the boss around here and makes sure everyone is feeling welcome, thread number 18 sure says a lot!

All welcome, its not just diet talk either, mucho chatting and gossip too

How long are you away for Trills?

I want to be young and to be bright-eyed and bushy-tailed (except actually sleek and shiny-haired) even if I have been up til 3 drinking.

Away for a week, back the next Tuesday evening.

Sazzles - just posted Korma and Tunisian stew recipe on t'other thread. Am dying to try out some of those recipes, especially falafels and dhansak.

Yoghurt - it is a small tub - one of those Yeo Valley organic little pots, not sure how much is in them, 100ml? Anyway they cost about 35p a tub iirc.

Am just off to post my supercalifrag Vindaloo recipe

If you've read Ender's Game look, a squirrel!

(you need to hover over to get the alt text too)

Have a great time. Bring some warm sunshine back with you please!

Right you lovely lot, I am going to say goodnight

TMW - had to check with my mum but think it is a c place. If correct tis other side i'm afraid. I regularly drive through the town with twisted spire and love a good coffee in the plague village they have a particuarly good naughty cake shop. Am sometimes your way as we go to see the trams.

DIB - yep i remember them but cut my teeth on the early verions prior to the High school level books and good bored quickly. Interestingly enough moved on to horror

night bella hope you get sleep and are feeling more human tomo.

Trill have a lovely trip. enjoy.

Night bella. Night all.

FB - come and see us if you come down again.

DEM - glad you liked it, we got married there.

DEM if you dopass Mitsplease giveher a big hug from me.You can have one tooif yer like

ABW thankyou. i needed that today. Have one back.
But to be honest if i pass her i am going to have to catch her as she flys past me at a hundred miles per hour on her bike i'll put it on a postit and stick to her back, shall i?

Five - it was the chapel that was amazing -i never expected to see those colours. the postcards dont do it justice and you arent allowed take pictures.

If you wave cake she may stop.
Actually she will stopjust because she islovely.
She has a fab smile. Do meet upif you can.
Hugsanytime xx I have noshame

No ABW, you're just a kinda huggy person. Its nice.

Personally i am a cold hearted bitch but that doesnt mean to say i cant have manners or consideration.

Okay I confess.I ama hug addict.Deprived though.
I may get hugs early oct if I can go and visit Mits.Otherwise it may be months.Fucking lonely life this.

It must be hard abw. I cant imagine it. I dont like hugs generally. I find them unbearable. Ds is the same but just sometimes they are just what is needed.
Is there no one else with you? Sorry i dont know your story and i am not going to pry. But it must be very hard. Life can be very hard. I am just grateful that things for me are starting to work in the right direction (although you wouldnt know it today if you had been a fly on the wall).

Do you want to know what made a difference to me? This. Mnetting and in particular the support that is here. Like i said yesterday i have a lovely place on here i go hide when i need to. It helps. They understand me more then people on this thread could. Not because they wouldnt want to here, but unless you are in the know you cant understand. Its hard to explain but its a different kind of support becaues they have been through it/experienced the impact themselves. And that makes a difference. here i can have some fun and be.

have a sugar induced hug Am afraid i am going to have to bail. I have to be up at six and am knacked. Hang in there hun. tiny fairy steps at a time. You'll get there. shoves a in ABW's dierection. Here hun, for you. it'll it help for now.

Evening ladies

Have had an 8 hour power cut today, my MN withdrawal symptoms were in overdrive! I think the freezer and fridge stuff is ok?! First when I called they said 5pm, then they said 8pm, then they said 10pm and it came back on about half an hour ago....apparently someone drove into a power line and brought it down.

Have scanned through, Bella am glad you took it easy today and hope that work tomorrow is good and that you REST when you get in

I'll be heading over to the recipe thread to check out the new stuff, the Tunisian dish sounds fab!

Dinner was gnochhi with pesto and a teeny weeny sprinkling of Parmesan, managed to get the cooker lit after working out that we could light the gas with a lighter
