OK folks you know the drill, and if you dont pay attention:

We are a bunch of lovely ladies all shapes and size, here for chat, and moral support.

Some of it is healthy eating chat. WW, LL, food focus, south beach. Whatever ever the route, whatever the goal its all here.

Most of the time its just moral support and general chat... So dive in, post as much as you are able and have some fun...

EssenceOfJack · 17/02/2010 09:06

PLease may I come in?

I really need to do something soon. I am Jack, as of this morning I weigh 16st12.
I need to weigh 14 by the summer so DH and I can go away as otherwise I will destroy his bike
Moving around from home to and then IL's every few days is not helping me right now as MIL is very ill so am comfort eating or not eating at all and then scoffing MIL's secret stash of hobnobs!
I am going to use food focus and hopefully start running a bit again if it stops farking snowing

DreamsInBinary · 17/02/2010 09:09

Morning!

I am DIB and would like to lose a stone please. Overnight if possible, and without giving up wine and doughnuts.

I so agree about the gorgeousness of this thread. I was thinking so last night whilst stalking looking at some pictures of HellsBelles on FB (her DH's - they appeared on my news feed so I had to keeping clicking next...he might want to reconsider his security settings?) and she is utterly beautiful!

If she were the only one, that would be fine, but bloody hell, you are all visions of lovliness

Alicetheinvisible · 17/02/2010 09:10

Morning

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MYCAT!!!!!! hope you have a lovely day.

Oops, pancakes for breakfast

Must dash, toddler group awaits

Morning!

Happy Birthday MyCat!

Welcome back Mehdis and hello Yogini.

Hello Jack!

DH has taken the day off work to go back to GP, he's still getting stomach cramps.

I've got to clean my pantry out today so I can get even more annoyed at the Gas Safe man from yesterday before I inevitably have to call Transco, because there's a tiny leak that his crude implements could not detect.

NormaSknockers · 17/02/2010 09:45

Morning all,

Happy Birthday MyCat Make a wish!

Welcome Jack, hope you enjoy your stay

Weighed in this morning, another 2lbs off That's 10lbs off in the last 4 weeks so feeling really pleased with that, 32lbs in total so far!

YanknCock · 17/02/2010 09:50

arrrgggghhhhh

lurgy

can't think, head in a fog. Surprised I found you all!

I'm Yank, am fat, weight now 17st 1 so that's 10lbs off since mid-November when I started WW online again and permanently joined the Shiney cult.

Still in bathrobe

happy birthday MyCat!

Throat is killing me, don't feel like eating anything (this is how I know I'm really ill)

hello newbies, hello long haulers

not even going to try to keep up/catch up, my head is killing me! but lurrve you all as usual and hope you are well.

hellsbelles · 17/02/2010 09:51

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MYCAT - hope you are waking up to a lovely day.

I'm Hells. With the support of this brilliant thread have lost about 10 lbs (on South Beach) - am now stuck but will, one day, do some exercise to lose another 8 lbs or so and hit my target weight.

Stuck at home again today - treat to be with my DD but fecking nightmare to be missing work as I have so much to do and need to get back in.

Welcome all newcomers.

Wasting....hope DH is o.k. and about your task ahead....I'm rubbish at that sort of thing.

NormaSknockers · 17/02/2010 09:54

Poor Yank

NormaSknockers · 17/02/2010 09:56

wasting hope DH is ok! at the idiot Transco man & having to clear out the pantry

EssenceOfJack · 17/02/2010 09:59

Happy birthday MyCat! (i forgot didn't I, oops)
and thanks for wwelcomes...

If it makes you feel any better Ynak, I am still in my PJ's and there is nothing wrong with me, I've just spent so long in someone else's house it is nice not to have to get sdressed. Plus it is cold and snowy outside,

Must get dressed.

YoginiBikini · 17/02/2010 10:00

Morning. Happy birthday to MyCat!

Sazz - I'm going to have a look at the food focus. You've done amazingly well.

I was also supposed to be going where you were today. The rain is making us change our mind though. So friend is going to come here. Between us we have about three million kids so I hope the rain lets up at some point and they can roam the garden.

Well done to all the 'losers'.

Jack - your summer plans sound intriguing. Are you going to be riding off into the sunset together?

Lizzylou · 17/02/2010 10:00

Yay Norma, you are doing fabulously, good for you.

Hells, enjoy your DD and try and forget about work, it'll get done....I know how hard that is though.

DH has taken boys to PILs, supposedly just for the day, they have now asked if they can have them overnight, great, but means I won't see them now until tomorrow evening (they'll be asleep), wished I'd have known, I'd have given them more cuddles and kisses.
Funny, when they are here they drive me insane, when they are not here I miss them terribly.

NormaSknockers · 17/02/2010 10:07

Always the way isn't it Lizzy, you long for a break yet you miss the monkeys when they're away!

TrillianAstra · 17/02/2010 10:09

Morning all. Had pancakes with work people last night. Was yum. There was also gin. Haven't read, but happy birthday MyCat!

Lizzylou · 17/02/2010 10:11

Yogini, Flam?
Are you OK?

jetcat · 17/02/2010 10:15

Morning all.
Trapped at home with a sick dd so will miss my walk today.
Am supposed to do basic pilates for back trouble so I guess thats a form of exercise??Cant face food yet due to volume of vomit from poor dd.

FiveGoMadInDorset · 17/02/2010 10:32

Hope everyone is well. DD and me are off to see Princess and the Frog in a bit,have made a ginger cake this morning as well, then shopping for birthday presenst for all the partys she is going to.

MyCatIsABastard · 17/02/2010 10:36

MOrning everyone and thank you very very much for the birthday wishes.

So far I have had cards, bucks fizz, bagels with cream cheese (low fat) and smoked salmon for breakfast and am just delicately sipping (as is wont of my great age) champagne. I have been 40 for 10hrs and so far it is good. Do you think this is the start of champagnne breakfast everyday or am I delusional in my old age .

Hello to all new people and I quiet whisper of a hello to the hungover people (who really should not be so hard on themselves, they are lovely people and will get there with the healthy eating!)
