doing myself a "bet you can't" but will do my best to try. Guess no-one interested but need to write it down. So here goes.

the next time I post on here I WILL have,

a clean and tidy house
be 4lbs lighter

okay so it's a massive step and a small step but I need MN Wink only trouble is can I will I yes I must achieve my goal.

Off now and maybe just maybe someone out there will be doing the same and report back next Sunday/Monday morning giving myself a week!

Good luck! Smile

Sounds like a good target to go for, I would join you but I am working away for most of next week so I will be eating crap and leaving house to the mercy of DH.

I managed to lose a couple of ponds last week and started to get the start getting the washing under control. I really need to get the house sorted out too as we wwant to get in valued to remortgage. I think I might have to arrange a valuer to come out so I have a deadline to aim for.

Good luck anyway and I will have a look whan i get back to see how you are doing Smile

shazronnie · 04/06/2006 22:20

Think I might join you; been thinking about it since I posted earlier...

So, yes, after tonight, no mn, just make house tidy and lose a couple of pounds!

Meet you on MN next Monday!

CountessDracula · 06/06/2006 18:52

charliecat · 06/06/2006 19:03

Cadmum · 06/06/2006 19:24

What a great way to make ourself accountable! I wish you all every success! I really need to do the following things this week:

  1. Get DD2's passport sorted.
  1. Tidy up the flat before Friday (friend staying with us).
  1. Arrange for all four dcs to see the pead for check-up and tb test.
  1. Eat fruit and veg insted af rubbish.
  1. Stop drinking coffee (because it does not and never will taste as good as it smells no matter how much frothed milk and sugar I add).
  1. Sort out one bag a day destined for the charity shop in order to facilitate our move in (gulp!) 19 days.
  1. Look carefully through the contents of the fridge/freezer and cupboards to plan meals that will leave us with no wasted food in 19 days.
  1. Make up a For Sale sign for our appliances that will be of no use to us. (Tonight!!!)

I will NOT come on MN until I have done at least one of the above everyday.

Cadmum · 06/06/2006 19:25

ourselves even

Cadmum · 09/06/2006 16:12

bummer: how's it going? Are you standing in an immaculate house looking slim?

Shazr: I hope your week end goes to plan. See you here Monday!

Chrliecat? Successs or do over?

As for me the progress has been slow:

  1. Still haven't done dd2's passport. Sad
  1. Flat is 1/2 way there. Will be more than presentable for our guest this evening. Smile
  1. Still haven't made that call...Blush
  1. Much healthier diet this week except for the brownies on Wednesday...
  1. Only one cup of coffee all week! More water instead. Smile
  1. 3 bags ready to go to charity shop will get there on Monday after our guest leaves since his bedding will be in the bags!
  1. Meal planner will have to wait until Monday as well. Blush

8, The sign was made and printed. I just need to post them this week end.

I have only lurked or posted on MN after the chores are done.

shazronnie · 12/06/2006 07:41

I'm back!!

I still weigh the same, but I have stopped eating between meals which is a step in the right direction. (I'm only half a stone overweight anyway.)

My house definitely looks tidier, my ironing pile is gone!

How did you do Bummer?

shazronnie · 12/06/2006 07:42

You haven't done too bad BTW Cadmum!

bummer · 12/06/2006 12:57

Tackled downstairs but then it's been really really hard keeping it tidy but it is clean as long as I run around every day. Upstairs managed half of one room! As for being lighter, well I think I've managed 1lb! that's if I am generous but I haven't eaten as much so I was dissapointed that it wasn't 2lbs.

Cadmum and Shazronnie it's really nice to know you were there doing your bit too.

Now thinking I will be really good and allow myself a bit of MN every morning as long as the day before I have tackled one room and managed to drink 8 glasses of water, what do you think? Every little bit helps they say! (Only trouble is how much of a bit should I allow myself - any suggestions? Grin)

Well done all of youSmile Think I'll have to join you as I have to get my house sorted. I did tackle under the stairs and my huge bathroom cupboard so have tons of charity stuff to go. Also tackled boys room and decluttered it. But my bedroom is hideous Sad the living room bookcase is so overcrowded I'm amazed it doesn't topple! Blush

I tidied the garden at the weekend and hope to fill my hanging baskets tonight.

Keep up the good work Smile
