Rise and SHINE with the best quiche ever!

[BitOfFun]

Welcome all- old and new- this is our fifty-something Healthy Eating thread, where we chat, support each other's ascent into vibrant slinkiness full of bright eyes and glorious glowing skin etc etc...

Post as much as you can, and you'll be sure to catch the gossip and the gamut of human emotion that make up the Shiney threads. They have grown from one woman's noble quest to ditch curly-wurlies for breakfast into a veritable Mumsnet phenomenon,which has actually seen some of us lose rather a lot of weight and get much healthier...

Not me- I am still trying to get there, and have a permanent cold, but hey, let's not split hairs: there are other regulars who are a positive inspiration! So jump in and find us again, or join us anew, and follow whatever approach suits you.

Wow Sazz, get you in your skinny white jeans

You look sooo fab, and have almost inspired me to exercise!

Cinzano is like Martini isnt it? my dad used to drink it when i was a kid and i used to have sneaky swings when he was out

You look fab in your fb pics saz!

Ah, are those the ones you mentioned before? And did you get that dotty Pretty Woman dress?

I liked the pretty woman dress.

Wow Sazz..you look so good .

Sorry to run in again and post then run out again. Its all 'me, me me'

But I wanted to say a MASSIVE THANK YOU to all of you for saving my sanity, relationship and life of the Mole!!!!

I tried lots of things suggested by you guys after appealing for help over the Mole crying / screaming all the time and she is a different baby after using the infant Gaviscon...

She sleeps!
She stays awake without crying!
She smiles and giggles!

So thank you thank you thank you.

Seriously, I'm not a very gushy person but all your comments and good wishes and advice really made a difference in both how I felt and obviously now in the fact that the baby is much, much happier.

On a different note we've just found out that my exh who was made redundant 12 months ago and hasn't paid maintenance for 9 months since because hes finding it 'impossible to get a job in this market' and owes me nearly £5k has actually been working pretty much the whole time. Nice.

Hes supposed to see dd (5) once every two weeks but said he coldnt afford it so came for 5 hours once every 5-6 weeks. She askled to see him more and i asked him but he said with no job he couldnt afford the petrol. Only, as i said above, he was working the whole time. Any advice on how to get rid of the rage i feel towards him or deal with the utter sadness i feel for her mch appreciated.

I have just blubbed at Glee when they were singing/signing Imagine. Hormones.

Just off to catch Sazz looking glam

Explain why Sazz you feel the need to lose weight, you look stunning.

Hello one and all. Hope your well. I can't quite believe your onto 260 posts already on a new thread, when there were over 200 left on the old one when I was last here.

Been doing a bit in RL this weekend, hence not around much.

Had a shocker yesterday when I stood on the scales. Managed to put on 7lb in about 10 days. Realisedt his morning though, when 4lb of them had come off over night that it was probably a lot to do with my time of the month! However, I am now well and truly back on WW and am limiting my points to 15 for a week, to give myself a kick start (ala Shiney, when she lost 11lb).

I'll skim through and catch up now but hope you are all well.

Evening all
Have been snuggling my newborn nephew (so small and cute), then went for a walk with DH and boys, my eyelids are drooping, they have been ever since the gym this morning, so am off to bed in a moment to sleep read.

lovely car Vinny, really fab.

Off to peek at Sazz'z FB pics for inspiration as she is my exercise guru.

Night all

advicereq thats great news about the mole

as far as your ex is concerned, what a shit! do you know where and who he has been working for? if so contact the CSA and give them all the details, and tell them he has stopped paying you, i sure that will relieve some of the rage you feel, for you

Sazz, you sexy minx!
How fab do you look in white skinny jeans?

Off to bed.

Hi Mycat, I am full of meatballs resolve as well at the moment, 2 weeks until my birthday and want to look slimmer.

Now I like a scrunchie and a side pony tail, good look
YOu look amazing, you must be so proud of yourself.

Advice: I am glad mole is OK and you can now enjoy her, sorry to hear about your ex, what a dick.
Hope you get it sorted.

Trills, the treacle pudding was not actually a recipe. It consisted of:
Dollop of golden syrup in a greased pudding bowl,
A Sainsbos cheapy sponge mix made up as per instructions, tipped over syrup,
Cover top with cling film and stab,
Microwave on high for 3 mins,
Eat with ice cream, if NOT dieting.

If dieting, walk away and get thyself a yogurt.

Thanks for the welcomes, I was a bit worried about barging in! And then I was forced to talk knobs straight away!!LOL!!

I have just put DS2 to bed, the other 2 DC are just about to go, then I shall be worshipping at the altar of CSI, so that's it for me today. Night all
