Lets get physical, physical, i want get physical, with the all new Shiney healthy eating thread, let me hear you body talk, your body talk let me hear you body talk!

[VinegarTits]

New thread here, someone do an into, i am too emotional

Cream is an essential part of growing babies, anyone could tell you that

Yes - tis true iggi. I'm round at Tracey's hoovering and we are internet shopping at the same time. And I'm off to see Bella to have some brownies later (diet ones of course )

I'm eating peanut M&Ms. It's Friday.

Hello

Squeezy and Vinny have made the Round-Up! Well done

I have just hoovered my car (hate dirty cars) and bloody 'ell I am nithered now. Tis really cold out there.

M & M's - prefer the choc ones though Trill.

Haven't read the thread since this morning so will go catch up.

Btw Shiney, those Activia yogs you have been eating - I got just the one on my shopping last night to try and they are really lovely - does WW Online tell you how many points for said yog?

Hope you car gets sorted Sazz.

MyCat - well done on your poundage loss and your interview. Gosh you must be really excited.

Vinny, sorry for your twat of an ex.

Oh and I really really want some chocolate

God I'm knackered...I got back from lunch and my Mum rang insisting that I meet her for tea

So I nipped off, resisted the temptation of chocolate cake and hot chocolate etc. Stumped for a glass of water and a pot of tea. Had a lovely chat, told her how well my work was going it was like lying to my teacher!

Now I'm back and planning to get paragraph one written in the next hour!

Iggi the title is Discuss the changing shape of horror over the course of the nineteenth century.

I am using frankenstein and dracula to show this (tutor said more than 2 books wouldn't allow enough content)as they neatlty bookend the century.

Woukld you like to write it for me, it would act as a nice distration for you

I need a wee now, but I think getting up and leaving my desk again would be too much.

I shall hold it in until my next scheduled break at 3:30

Someone kick me!

Jac, it is well known that you won't be able to concentrate if you are not comfortable. Go and pee!!!!

Horror reflects the real fears of the country/population right? So if everyone is afraid of war or afraid of communists or afraid of sexual licentiousness that's what the horror will show?

Nice try Jaq! I have at least read them both, so will have a think. Is it a literature course, or is it meant to tie in with social/political events in that centure?
Writing essays is fun
And entitles you to a very small treat everytime you finish a page.

Mycat and shiney - well done on the loss, and on the interview mycat

Me, i have put a pound on Nurse isnt worried at all, was trying to calm me down as i simply burst into tears(been a tough week) and said that everyone puts on over xmas

So, a new me has dawned - i have GOT to get back to doing some exercise, so have warned PA that gone are the days of dawdling round the shops, that we will we walking, but on a nature walk or something, and at a fast pace.

I am also swimming with Junior twice a week as from next week (cant do this week due to AF)

I am so cheesed off, have had a nightmare with my bank after a direct debit came out which wasnt supposed to, leaving me massively overdrawn - my account doesnt have a overdraft facility. My benefits go in tomorrow, but will all be swallowed up. So, i go to bank, as they told me yesterday the d/d would be returned and money paid back into my account, and i would get charged.

Today, money not gone into my account, cue massive panics. Woman in bank initially tells me there is nothing they can do, to go to benefits office for a giro. Cue me bursting into tears again and quickly ushered into a side room (think the black eye really added to the 'poor me' effect here)

Upshot is, i have to go back down tomorrow, when they can see my benefits have been paid in, get someone to ring the lending dep and they will release my money!! Cue me in tears again trying to say thank you

Like i said, a tough week.....

Oh Jet What a huge pain for you.

Aw Jet, have a rest now lovely and calm down, and the Nurse would have said if she was worried about your gain (which is titchy and prob due to AF anyway).

I am knackered, trying to get DS2 to come for a walk with me, but he won't.

Where is Squeezy? Haven't seen her in ages?

Good grief, this is moving quickly!

I see references to Vinny's twatty ex- he sounds like a real pain in the arse

Iggi- here is something to drool over and keep your pecker up

Well, I'm back and it was traumatic (went to Gloucester for whoever asked - sorry can't remember who still in trauma). DD would not walk with us, I lost her in H&M somewhere. After that we decided that it was home time. She whinged the entire way home and has just spent 15 mins yelling in her bedroom. DH is wound up and DS is tired. Thank God I'm going out tonight!

Thank you for the congrats. Yes, I will be in here tomorrow asking for loads of advice on what the hell to wear to an interview these days and any tips on interview techniques. I've had to interview lots of people over the yrs, but my panic stricken brain cannot recall anything about what to say, do or be right now.

jet - I hope your week gets better and I'm glad you sorted the money out. Well done

jaq - I intend to take my birthday off the diet, but not go mad (I'm in a couple of weeks time).

Off now to rescue DH & DS from still slightly tantruming DD. God Help Me.

Mycat, I have interview tips I can email you?
Basic, but always worth feeling prepared...

I'm here, I'm here! Don't cull me!

We have a new boiler. House is a disaster as boiler's been moved from kitchen to airing cupboard upstairs, so all linens which were in airing cupboard are all over spare room and no shelves to put them back. Plus everything from kitchen still in dining room while decorating/painting happens next week.

I've had the interview, but turns out it was more a chat with woman I'd be working with and still have to meet the boss next week. Been told I'm overqualified and salary is rubbish, but.....2.8 miles from home saving £150/month petrol on current job, and part time, and I'd be busy, and might learn to knit. All that appeals...will have to decide what to say if they offer.

DS still feeding like mad, nips getting sore. He's only gained 2oz in last two weeks and HV wants me to give him solids, but it was the HV I don't like as much and am not convinced, esp not after reading the MN section on weaning. Need to go start a thread on that when I get both hands back.

Iggi, good to see you here.

Shiney, well done on 4lbs!

MyCat, good luck on interview.

Oh mycat. I lost DD1 just after Christmas in town. It was terrifying.

How old are your DCs?

HOw old is he Yank?

MyCat I hate it when you lose a child. That feeling in the pit of your stomach is horrific, when you first realise.

Thank God you are all home safe and sound despite everyone being in foul moods

Well I have written 202 words so far, and I'm pretty damn chuffed with them.

I didn't have another break, but I did go and wee.

DP is meeting me with all the kids at 4:30 to trudge round town for an hour. I honestly think I would rather continue doing this

Right only 2300 words to go, no problemo.

Oh and Jet yes exercise is a must, once my deadlines have been and gone I am back on it so will be happy to chase you around cracking the whip

Congrats on the interview MyCat

My best interview tip: Tell yourself that it is a practice interview, and that if you dont get this one, you will get the next one, go in there and be yourself, if you do know something be honest with them, dont try to wing it if you dont know something, just be confident and friendly, and smile alot

works for me, i have always got the job when i have been for interviews

flamingo my DC are 11mths and 4.3yrs. 11mths easy as pie, 4.3yrs has her moments. I sort of knew she couldn't have gone far in H&M but when I couldn't see her after a couple of mins I started to get a bit teary .

Lizzy - e-mail address jenny at jfmmarketing dot co dot uk. I'd love some interview tips please.

Vinny - thats a good idea, I'll try that one, makes you much more relaxed.

Starting to wonder what to wear now. I;ve got a grey skirt suit but it is a bit bland really. I bought a lovely red top to go with it for next week at a networking event I'm going to on Wednesday but I think it is too bright a red for an interview. I don't want to go too soberly dressed but I do want to look smart a stylish. I'll be trawling Next tomorrow night and asking for opinions (Next cause I've got their catalogue and can get it on account)

Ooh just looked out the window and it's snowing! But it can't! I'm going out!!! Waaahhhhhh... don't make me stay in!

JESUS CHRIST DD is being SUCH a madam!!!! It's like she's got sodding PMT!

Starving isn't exactly healthy is it, but Hi anyway and thanks for invite shinesome one.mwah xxx
