Star - Great to hear that Q's not going to be eating purees when he's at university!
Well done Q!!

rachie yeh for your lazy week, you enjoy it. Where abouts are your parents then? I am in worcester. I am also with you on the big b'day celebrations too did it with dd1 so will do it for dd2.

Myjob - Oi woman! Stop it! Starving yourself is a sure fire way of putting weight on in the long run and you know that. You might even need to eat more but more fruit and veggies. I know it is hard and so depressing but you need to have energy to keep up with your babies. How much do you get out and about? You do seem to go out a fair bit but how much walking do you do in a day? If you're honestly doing all the things you should to lose the weight then go to the gp to talk about it. You could be right, there could be something wrong, pregnancy can affect your body in some many different ways.

I am watching The Apprentice so back later....

Oh, Aubergenie - Great news about your friend. She must be so much more positive and that is going to really help her recovery!

Myjob - I know it's hard, but try and wait until you've stopped breastfeeding. I didn't start losing weight when I had ds until after I had stopped breastfeeding. I know you're not feeding N much any more, but if you can be patient....... Anyway, you've seen a recent picture of me, you have nothing to worry about!

Also watching the Apprentice, so just a quickie.

Welcome back hedgepig .

Nice day at inlaws. Stayed and bathed the kids there and brought them home and straight to bed.

Been watching The Apprentice on delay. Suralan is mad! Kate was by far and away the better candidate! He is a strange old man.....

He's never chosen who I thought was the right candidate MM, so I wasn't at all surprised. Are you watching the extra stuff now? Had forgotten how utterly shite Kate was in the catering task!

Hi Everyone. Myjob - Sorry you are feeling bad about your weight.

If you have regained weight that fast and you are eating properly, maybe some of it is water weight.. water retention from hormones plus you may have been a bit dehydrated before.. some may disappear again in a few days..

If it makes you feel better, I was two sizes and over a stone smaller two days after having Amelia than I am now.. so I know what you are going through. My meals are healthy but my portion sizes are too big. I get so hungry after BFing Amelia. that can snack on rubbish too.

would read and respond to more but I'm getting kicked off the PC again... ttfn

CSWS - Do we know what has happened to previous winners? I am sure there has been a programme about it but I never watched it. They were all dreadful in the catering task! Some of the lunches served up were just offensive.

I haven't seen anything on previous winners mm. Unless I've forgotten . I'd like to know what happened to some of the previous non-winners too.

Here is a bit of information about the winners. Ha ha ha re: Lee!

Sorry I am being very rude to the rest of you ladies.......

Katie Hopkins was running as an independent Euro MP last week, I think. Nor sure what happened to any of the others.

(And that Tim guy who won the first one went to school just round the corner from my house.)

S'ok mm - the rest of 'em have gone to bed .

Oh yes Aubergenie, of course she was, I read the threads on here. She sounds like a 'delightful' woman!

I want to know what happened to the Badger!

Oh I'll have to have a look at the thread. I hadn't even realised until I heard her being interviewed on the radio the this morning. She was a horror, wasn't she!

And now I know!

She did some telly and definitely had a column in a paper somewhere. The Badger. She was great wasn't she?!

Didn't the Badger end up presenting some business tv programme? I MUST go to bed now, but I'm going to look in the morning.

Wishing you all good sleep ladies.

• Xpost!

Aubergenie - If you fancy working up some hate have a look at this. It's unbelievable!

I should have been in bed long ago. Ah well, expect ds will wake for a feed 10mins after I fall asleep again .
Will go up as soon as apprentice thing finishes.

oh ffs. Been up since 3.38 and done a full outfit change as well as a feed since then as he was soaked through again. He's now yelling crossly whilst i'm tearing my hair out frustratedly. Aaarrrgggghhhh.
