If your name's not on the list... come on in anyway, the Shiney cult is always open!

New thread, same old plan.

We are a bunch of varying-in-size ladies (with the occassional male visitor) who all want to eat more healthily. We include those who want to lose 50 lbs, those who have already lost 50 lbs, those with only a little to lose, and some who just like to chat.

Come, post lots, and you will get encouragement, sympathy, and ass-kicking as necessary

Can I have a dry bowl of Crunchy Nut cornflakes?

And yes, what on earth helped Jet's toothache that wasn't meds?

I'm uspecting something that took her mind off it...

• thats crunchy nut as a snack

*suspecting. Ghaaa, rubbish typing.

A good sniff of a crackpipe will do that, deffo.

right off to watch 24. Back later.

JuJu - I have a double portion - but made up with water instead of milk to mitigate the calories. So I have 2 sachets of Oatso Simple instead of one.

as a mid morning snack or to take your mind off toothache BoF?

jujus - yes, snacking is a must. When i first started healthy eating, i started having mid morning and mid afternoon snacks, and actually felt like i was eating more than i should be - but it worked

Ok - whispers - well, after trying to sleep through the pain sucking on ice pops, hot tea, whiskey etc nothing was working at all. I was pregnant, so very limited in what meds i could take. So, errm, one night i couldnt sleep.

errrm, i diverted the blood flow That would be sex to normal people, but i was single so had to go it alone

I actually cant believe i just typed that

does someone feel like coming and making me a cup of tea?

funny... takes my mind off most of life's stresses and strains Jet

money, kids. exes, weather, work, housework,..............

rofl.

Glad I wandered in...

that sounds very enterprising to me jetcat, a bit of the old erm self-love

/passes cup of tea and biccie to Mitts

the only thing is... I can't see a thing.....

I think its real men don't eat quiche.. but considering this is sort of one...

I have saved most of my calories for tonights wine.

Thats not very healthy is it?

I've never met a man who would eat cottage cheese. Shiney - I've never found that porridge increases appetite - and it also has benefits re:cholesterol.

/tries to use telekinesis to move cup of tea from her kitchen to Mitts

At the risk of setting off a false positive on everyone's gaydar (yet again), I'm not averse to cottage cheese. Or quiche.

Just haven't had any for literally years.

there appears to be cups of tea flying everwhere!!

i have scored a treadmill Ex's sister is selling hers (a fancy electric one) and has even managed to persuade ex into dropping it off on sunday for me - with her waiting a week to cash my cheque I can now run till my heart is content, while mini is in bed and watching enders

me neither juju, me neither

there's nothing unmanly about quiche....it's sort of a 'convertible' pie.....

thanks for the advice re: snacks

Right I am here, had a busy day with stocktaking and sorting out guests and DC's.

Have been very good with my points which ahs allowed me to drain a whole bottle of wine.

Yay for boys Alice, congratulations. In hindsight think girl then boy is a great (mind gone blank). We love it. Combination.

Just booked our holiday here we have gone for nuthatch lodge, sounds lovely will let you know and not hugely expensive.
