i created the vinny fb profile as i was getting slightly paranoid because i was adding people and not know who the heck the were

but you lot can add me if you want, i'm on Bella's fb, initials NA

TrillianAstra · 12/02/2010 11:22

It's possibly less embarrassing to have accientally conceived with someone who is a bit of a prick than to have deliberately gone out to reproduce with them.

Have had injection. Also been told that it is EVIL on the thread I started to ask about it. People do over-react sometimes, don't they?

NormaSknockers · 12/02/2010 11:23

No, no it's fine we know when we're not wanted......

I only have the one FB page but the only MNers I have are you gus & the few MNers I meet up with from the locals board

Lizzylou · 12/02/2010 11:27

Trills, everyone is different, what suits one woman won't suit another, but you're sensible so I know you won't take heed of hysterical postings.

Did I tell you how I nearly turned into a serial killer on the injection though? And my face turned purple with big green warts?

VinegarTits · 12/02/2010 11:31

i cant confirm any freinds requests till later though as work have fb blocked

Lizzylou · 12/02/2010 11:37

Sorry did someone say something??

TrillianAstra · 12/02/2010 11:37

And the NHS doesn't pay for things that don't (on average) work. If 80% of people grew facial hair and sat in the corner snarling on the trials I doubt the local surgery would be gving it to me.

NormaSknockers · 12/02/2010 11:37

I'm totally lost.......ijections, serial killers, big green warts??

NormaSknockers · 12/02/2010 11:53

Crikey - I'm a serious thread killer today

wastingaway · 12/02/2010 12:05

My being on the injection coincided with various bad things, but I can't say for sure that said bad things wouldn't have happened anyway. So that'd be a subjective anecdote then.

Lizzylou · 12/02/2010 12:07

Sorry Norma, had to referee engage with the boys.....

I was only joking about the injection, just cos Trills had said lots of people had been sacring her off it. I've never had it.

Oh and Mwah to Vinny, will add you when I can get on FB, want to see your swishy glossy hair.

MyCatIsABastard · 12/02/2010 12:11

Good morning all.

A snot monster has crawled up my noice and has been reproducing at an astonishing rate all night. I was going to jump DH last night but the thought of snogging and not breathing at the same time kind of put a dampner on it (that and the fact that I'm sure DH didn't want snot all over him)... aren't I lovely

Yank your poor friend. What a terrible thing to have happened.

Sazzles - oh no, luke warm chinese in the dark is not sounding remotely yummy! Hope the electric is back on now

Norma - hope today sees you starting to feel better

Fanny that is v funny about your DD.

Shiney what an arsehole ex! It never ceases (sp) to amaze me how often some dad's try and get out of seeing their kids! I really don't understand it.

Flam Thats terrible about the money. I'm sure you'll get it back. Also I had exactly the same thing with the bins last week. Turns out that the new little brown food bin had all the information in it on the changes. We still had rubbish left over from when they didn't collect when we had 8ft of snow making it too dangerous for the bins to be collected... oh no, that's right, it was 2 inches.

Bella - I have found WW online focuses me because I am a tight arse and cannot spend £10 a month without getting something for it!

Lunch is ready so I'll catch up later people. Have a good afternoon

Goober · 12/02/2010 12:15

Have finished work for the week.
Yee-bloody-ha!!
Today, the scales are my friend, they told me I have lost 8 lbs, so I may have to eat Toblerone to celebrate.

NormaSknockers · 12/02/2010 12:24

MyCat - noice?? Is that a cross between nose & voice?

I'm feeling a bit better as the day goes on so hopefully it's on it's way out now

NormaSknockers · 12/02/2010 12:24

Yay well done on the loss Goober that's bloody fab, is that in a week?

hellsbelles · 12/02/2010 12:27

quite a morning for the shiney crew...shiney I really cannot comprehend how you maintain relative composure with that man. Patience of a saint!

Flam - horrible. Very sorry.

Trills - I know nothing about the injection so won't annoying you with a random unqualified comment (Though that hasn't stopped me in the past).

Just been to see DS's teacher...stupidly proud after being told lots of lovely things about my PFB (though BOF was right in her interpretation of the 'colourful and dynamic' description' that was added to his report

VinegarTits · 12/02/2010 12:28

lol at mycat's snot monster hope it vacates you soon

well done Goober!

i have just had crisps and a 4 finger kitkat for my lunch

NormaSknockers · 12/02/2010 12:31

at the Kitkat Vinny!

Ah Hells it's lovely to be stupidly proud

wastingaway · 12/02/2010 12:34

Aw hells, that's lovely. at 'colourful and dynamic' though!

Goober 8 lbs you star!

Vinny you need to eat some fruit and vegetables!
I've actually just had some salad, so feel qualified to lecture you on that point today.

Poor MyCat, and BoF. Glad you're feeling better though Norma.

Lizzylou · 12/02/2010 12:34

Kitkats and toblerones???

Noooo, don't mention chocolate!

Well done Goober.

Hells, I agree with Norma it is good to be proud of your offspring, I tell mine I'm proud of them all the time, bores them to tears.

Mycat, hope you feel better so you can have non-snotty snogging soon.

NormaSknockers · 12/02/2010 12:37

Lizzy it bores them now but in the years to come they will secretly love the fact that you tell them that

Goober · 12/02/2010 12:39

The 8 lb loss is over 18 days.

Will be back later after doing stuff.

MyCatIsABastard · 12/02/2010 12:49

ha ha at noice! That's my Gloucester accent coming through ooo arrrgggghhhh tis! Of course I meant nose, said in a lovely 1950's lady presenters voice!

I've just had medicinal carbohydrate and omega 3 for lunch (fish and chips ). V lovely. I am going swimming this afternoon in a bid to get clorine to kill all bugs up my nose!

goober, well done on the loss!

I seem to keep trying to sabotage my weight loss now for some reason. I get below 13st and then eat loads and put the couple of lb back on. Why do I do this? I really do want to lose more weight but seem to have a mental block. I shall ponder on it but if anyone can give me some sort of insight into this I would be very grateful.

Lizzylou · 12/02/2010 12:57

MyCat, I am the same, I get complacent I think and bored.
Am determined to lose the chub for June meet up and our holiday in July. I need to remember how good I feel when I am slimmer and fitter.
In that way I sort of understood the Kate Moss "Nothing tastes as good as skinny feels" comment because you can bet when I get on the scales and have gained/put on I won't be thinking how lovely that cheese laden meal was or how nice the cake was, I will be heartly regretting it.
Though "skinny" is not my choice of words, I need to remember that I can reign my eating in so that I can look better and feel better about myself.

Gawd, I talk the talk........if only I could stick to it!

MyCatIsABastard · 12/02/2010 13:02

I think your right Lizzy that it is a bit about complacency with me, but also I seem to deliberately sabotage it. I don't think I lack confidence but maybe I'm feeling exposed without all the fat .

I saw some pics of me last year when I was 17+ stone and I didn't recognise myself. I am bloody determined not to get back to that again.
