Time for some JuShi fruit (and veg) with the healthy eaters

[TrillianAstra]

This is our mumblemumbleth thread. We want to eat more healthily and/or lose weight.

In theory.

Mostly we like to chat and admire teh thread mascot - he helps us not to over-eat.

If that doesn't do it for you, you can always go old-school - I know I'm too scared to go into the dark spooky kitchen now

I have watched the tutorial Trills, I did like the smokey eyes.

Is it Friday you go Trills?

Should be. Not booked yet AFAIK. Will keep you all informed of course

Can get brand new unopened you rebel off ebay for about £11 am assuming not fake.

I think it speak volumes about Fanny's BIL that he knows a drug dealer who was prepared to lend him upwards of £100k in the first place.

Dodgy does not begin to cover it.

Exactly JJ!

Sorry, Fanny. That's a bit brutal of me.

It's a bloody shame, but I don't think there's anything you should or can do, other than support your DH.

I have just had to eat the last packet of Hula Hoops as the boys would argue over whose it was...

I think I am officially old now! My hot flushes are getting more and more frequent - I have had 4 tonight.

I am quite a stickler for using what I have before I buy any more makeup. I don't think I could justify half used makeup.

Am not sure Shiney. I am trying to convince myself it is not happening and it could be my gin and tonic... however, for weeks now I have not had a full nights sleep without it being interupted with a bloody flush. Oh god, my mother would love it if I told her... she would say I would have to act my age then and dress appropriately.

Thing is, and you probably think this is quite funny, but I really don't like spending money.

My mum took it for a while. I am trying not to think about it, pretend it is something and nothing.

Well, I like to save my money and spend DH's . It really really pains me to draw any out of my bank. I paid for my own hair cut yesterday because I had spent quite a bit on the boys last week out of the joint account.

I am good at saving >

Evening! Had a busy day out + DS is off-colour again. Have attempted to catch up.

Glad you had a nice evening with DH last night Bella.

DEM, the skating sounds soo good for you. Awesome.

Vinny, what a prat your XFIL is.

Jet, well done for standing up to Ex, that?s brill! Good idea re: make-up swap.
Sooo of everyone. I def can?t come now, I shall be in Wales.

Bloody hell Fanny! Afraid I'm cynical with SAF there on possibility of him using story to scam you.

Saf, that?s a fab story about nude cartwheeling. How glorious!

Trills, I bought that song, on tape. How sad.

Mmm... make-up. I don't wear it every day, like I should really, and my skin is so crap atm that it makes me look worse , but I do love make-up.
The That Gal primer by Benefit is lovely and smells gorgeous.
I'm still using the No7 Intelligent Foundation, tried some others but it never looks right. I have dry oily skin and am quite olive, but need a pale shade of foundation.
Dandelion by Benefit is a lovely blusher, subtle and natural, but can build it up to nice and rosy.

I used to have loads of make-up, but it is expensive and as I rarely actually go anywhere it's a little hard to justify.

wasting, you know you can get Lucky Charms here right? I probably shouldn't tell you that.....

iggi, much admiration to you for writing thank you cards already. It took me 6 months

bella, glad you had a lovely night out with your DH! I also hate freecycle sob stories.

Vinny, good on your dad. xfil needs to realise he can't manipulate you.

saf, sounds like an awful situation with ds's father.

shiney, ooh cooking lessons! Will there be an obligatory rom-com style food fight?

Mycat, yay for size 16!!

defluff, hope you are okay?

Hi to Norma!

All my makeup is very old, I think the last time I purchased any it was three years ago! Do I have to chuck everything? One thing I have learned though--foundation always looks better when applied with a brush.

jet, hope your ex sees sense. Can't believe he wants money to pick up his own kids!

Fanny, what on earth?! You're not being horrible at all. If he's being threatened he needs the police.

I also love Glee. I did pit band for the musicals for two years and was in the chorus for two years in high school. If we'd had a show choir, I would have definitely been in it. I am cheesy like that.

MrCock and miniYank are all tucked up in bed. I've gotten loads done today, the house is almost in order. They tried to deliver our luggage today, but never told us, so we were out and missed it.

I've got the day off Tuesday to go to my baby swimming and soft play lunch for one last time.

I think I need to sort out facebook/mumsnet on my phone or something. Being at work without it is going to be hard.

Joint bank account? What's mine is mine & what's his is ours - works for me!

Yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaank - hello .

On all makeup now it says how long you should keep it for. It has a symbol of a little pot with the lid half off and a number next to it for the months.

You do a fab round up!

Wasting, sorry you cannot make it.
