Auld Lang Shine- step into 2010 healthy, wealthy and wise!

[BitOfFun]

Welcome to our 36th healthy eating thread, where we will renew any healthy eating resolutions with all the viguor that the Christmas munchies require...

We chat, keep each other on track, and monitor our goals together- some on the thread have lost shed loads of weight, some are running ridiculous distances. Some, of course (like myself and Shiney, our dubious leader) have been a bit, er, remiss really. But that can all change with a New Year!

Come and introduce yourself, old and new, and let's get Mumsnet's famous Shiney Healthy Eating Thread kicked off for 2010...

Wasting, your posts are like you've been to the dentist, or Manuel from Fawlty Towers!

Last S Day?

Wasting your posts are maknig me LOL.

S-deit, Sat/Sun/special days are for eating whatever you like.

SloppySeconds you must have been something else at some point because that name I would definitely remember.

My first S day today and I have been pretty good, I sort of forgot that it was in fact Sunday today as I have eaten:

Sausage sandwich
bowl of homemade minestrone soup

and that's it so far.

So DH has gone to get a pizza . Haven't had any sweets, snacks or seconds though.

My AF has been missing in action for 4 days. I am reluctant to pee on a stick becausee it will trigger instant flow and be a total waste of a fiver. I'm gonna out bluff the bugger and just wait.

DH has just done me a slimline tonic - could do with a slug of gin in it, but will be good and not have any.

Am going to give myself a manicure in readyness for work tomorrow.

Bella, we are in synch as was just about to pop upstairs to do a facemask and manicure before Wallander comes on.

Who says I don't live life on the edge?

Good plan Bella, I'll paint my nails too.

Are you hoping for an AF or no AF Georgi? Mine is very definitely not missing in action, but I always feel nervous when I know it should be coming (I do want it BTW).

I definitely need an AF every month with my new job - blimey that would be a catastrophe, but then I don't have sex so I don't suppose I have to worry really..

Yep chaos is DEM

Everyone has been very busy but trills I am definetly not ttc. however the opportunity for sex would be appreciated but even then no TTC going on here.

I had a lovely tea - roast veg and have had a couple of snacks but ast it is an s-day it doesnt matter. Going to head off for an early night. Ds is safely in bed as i doesd him with his sleep meds tonight. Yet another day of him being a saint with his behaviour. he had a lovely morning playing with grandad this morning. granddad has left for work so wont see him til friday now. Mum is doing a major sort through of the christmas decorations tonight. SO i have a choice of early night or essay. Not feeling the vibe of the essay so suspect i am about to hit the off button and go to bed.

Reality's stalker is a bit of a bitch isnt she. She must really have an inferriority complex to be that nasty. hope reality is ok.

Bella we did the whole card games thing a while back even uno but as he isnt yet 5 and struggles with a normal pack of cards its a bit limiting. We did the red cabbage indicator experiment today - took about half an hour but he enjoyed it. i enjoyed the fact that to clear it up just meant loading the dishwasher. I think we are doing crystal growing tomorrow.

Bloody 'ell, DS2 (10) has just asked me the meaning of some words in a song..

"got my gun cocked tight and I'm ready to blow"

I am considering experimenting with medical ways to not have one every month. You hear so many horror stories though about people who just had constant periods or put on 2 stone or something though.

Not everyone wants to discuss their sex life in massive detail Shiney...

But since Bella did bring it up...

It just don't happen Shiney... possibly I am at fault. I think it stems from when I used to work really late and I was too tired. I am actually an evening sort of girlie and he is a morning sort of bloke. Got out of the habit I suppose.

I echo what the others say Georgia, and other new folk. It can be a tough thread to join because we all generally have a lot to say for ourselves, and so it can feel like posts get ignored but they really aren't. The ones that do seem to stay generally have the tenacity to 'hang on' and get used to the cheery banter, inane ramblings and sporadic diet and cock talk. But they are bunch of big hearted souls on here and you are absolutely and completely welcome.

You will suddenly find yourselves welcoming other new folk and saying something similar, so please....don't give up on us

I have read the new bits on the thread but by the time I get to the 'add message' box, I can't remember who said what lol

I need to find a mojo from somewhere.... anyone got one going free?

I am quite self-conscious of my body bits too - flabby belly and all that.

Tis BoF, is it not? Friend of Reality's and all.

I expect your DH has plenty of jiggly bits himself Bella.

I am planning mojo-overhaul myself, we have no excuses after all. (DP sometimes reads this, so you have to make sure there's lots of posts now so this one gets lost )

Thanks for the positive story Sazz.

I did make a huge effort not so long ago, bought some lovely corset undwear, stockings the lot and had a shower, put it on, came down tottering in high heels and he was flippin well asleep!!

New years resolution - jump on my DH more
