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.

Oh I hope today is ok for you Alice.

Shiney, he's a twat. You really dont want to go out with somebody that STUPID, do you? Don't you dare let him make you feel bad. Your humour and your confidence are two of your most attractive qualities (apart from the old Teeth and Tits, hehe)- hanging around with someone with that kind of crass attitude who has already made you feel crap before you've even met...well, I just wouldn't bother, tbh. You are fucking gorgeous. So what if you could drop a few pounds- join the club. He can't add any more brain cells- that's far worse.

He's not good enough for YOU, missy- that's the bottm line.

Oh dear, Shiney, he does sound like a bit of a twat. If I were being very optimistic, I would think that perhaps he's just a bit awkward and is now kicking himself for sounding so stupid.

Either way, it gives you the upper hand. If you go, it is very much your call whether he can regain any status. He is the one starting with a disadvantage.

You are GORGE, and he has already seen you in numerous pics, so of course he doesn't think you are fat.

DreamsInBinary · 24/03/2010 08:49

Oh, and now I am obsessive about food, yesterday I ate

Pineapple and natural yoghurt
Jacket spud and beans
Chicken noodle soup (2 portions - only 4 points)
Wine

I think it was 15 points.

DreamsInBinary · 24/03/2010 08:49

Look after yourself today, Alice

dawntigga · 24/03/2010 09:15

shiney tbh he sounds like a bit of a tosser. He hasn't even met you and he's asking for nekked pics. Alarm bells ringing here - sorry

BoF It never rains but monsoons for you m'dear!

Today i shall mostly be wearing snot it appears. It's all the rage in Paris, just ask Bonsoir!

Morning lovely ladies.

Shiney, what a shame. Better to find out he's a prat now though.
It wouldn't matter if you were sporty etc., he'd still be a prat.

I'm in a good mood this morning.

Was Roneeeef a troll or just a freak?

NormaSknockers · 24/03/2010 09:58

Good point wasting

I think I may be murdering DH before the day is out At least DS is a very happy chappy today (currently dancing around his sisters dolls prams singing a very tuneless song) so hard to stay cross around him

I think I may attempt my own tom & basil soup today for lunch....

jetcat · 24/03/2010 10:07

shiney - i second everyone else, better you find out now

Bof - hope you managed to get the pouffe sorted

Vinny - what are you like, going for a drive in your pj's

bellavita · 24/03/2010 10:14

Shiney - - I think it is disgusting what he said to you, very pervy and completely unnecessary. Please don't have a date with him.

TrillianAstra · 24/03/2010 10:33

Any person who insists that they could only like a girl/boy with a particular physical characteristic needs to grow up and expand their horizons.

There are a lot fo men out ther. A lot of them are not good enough for Shiney. If you had low standards it owuld be easier to find an acceptable guy but less rewarding.

Raisins with dark-choc-covered pumpkin seeds for breakfast. (Graze of course, I don't buy weirdy things like that)

Lizzylou · 24/03/2010 10:44

Shiney, why are you feeling down about it?

You are not the one requesting bloooming naked pics from someone you haven't even met, are you?
That is just plain odd. As is expressing a preference for body type/height/weight/hair colour/cock size whatever, it is entirely him in the wrong.

I would tell him to shove his date, there are plenty of single men who are not so judgmental, insecure and shallow, you will have lots of fun finding them

bellavita · 24/03/2010 10:50

Please don't lose heart Shiney. There will be someone out there.....

YanknCock · 24/03/2010 10:53

Yeah, the 'naked comment' was sort of out of the blue, wasn't it. Strike 2 against him. Maybe an awkward attempt at flirting, but very bad judgment on his part as far as saying this to someone he's not met (and has no real knowledge of if you welcome that sort of comment). Makes him sound totally desperate and pervy. I'm v disappointed, I really thought he seemed ok.

Again, this is why I suggest meeting sooner and not talking as much beforehand. I think a lot of people are better at restraining their verbal diarrhoea in person than online/on the phone. But he's pretty well blown it now.

I think you should tell him 'your comment about wanting to see me naked made me a bit uncomfortable, and based on what you've said your preferences are, I'm probably not really your type, so best to leave this' or some such thing. You can probably say it better with some thought and help from the rest of the shiney cult.

NormaSknockers · 24/03/2010 11:02

Just tried a bowl of that new cereal Krave - it's made me feel sick!

TrillianAstra · 24/03/2010 11:09

How about 'if body type is that far up your list of qualities then perhaps we have different views on what's important in life'?

Give him a chance to say 'sorry, that came out completely wrong, I am a foolish stuttering mess when confonted with your amazing wit'

Lizzylou · 24/03/2010 11:14

Great one, Trills!

Seriously, Shiney, don't lose heart or feel bad, just see it as a lucky escape, and waste no more head space on the twassock.

Bloody hell Shiney, do not make this about any faults you think you may have. You are you, funny bits and all and if someone doesn't want you for who you really are then they are a complete waste of your time. Simple.

I am starving, and stressed, i have just roared at DD because she whacked me round the face with an A4 size peter fucking rabbit hardback book. I must stay calm I must stay calm I must stay calm.......

If i had cake, not even the wrapper would be left right now

TrillianAstra · 24/03/2010 11:33

vegeterina sounds like a hippy veggie person.

VinegarTitsOnaDiet · 24/03/2010 11:56

Shiney is this guy some kind of Adonis with a ginourmous cock? cos i bet he aint got a super firm slim body himself

Sorry your upset and disappointed, but i think if he met he would be so blown away by your gorgeous face and fab personalitiy, that firm butt cheeks will be the last thing on his mind

What an idiot thing to say to someone you havent meet yet, do you really think he is that shallow?
