[ThePFJ]

I don't do the WW group thing, I went for 3 sessions, and then used all the magazines and points wheels etc to make a diet of my own at home. Works just as well if you are commited to it.

Soph - I should be posting you a parcel today, I put red X's on it just as you asked

[Clarissimo]

See PFJ I was fine on WW (about 3 stone) until I stopped going to group then I slipped- I think it depends on how you worlk? I am a competitive cow and having peopel to beat to loser of the week always worked - probably makes me actual loser of the week I know. I am going to a gym now (just a curves onenowt yummy mummy) and I always try to beat the machine: how can you beat a machine fgs!

Happy birthday to any I misswed (big cuddles for little george Knitter)

[ThePFJ]

LOL I loved it when the ladies at the group would ask me how the hell I managed to lose 4 lbs my first week... I smugly would tell them.. er.. I read the book???!

I am fine with being competitive with myself though, and then bragging to my friends about how much I have lost. Works for me

[SuperSoph73]

Hey all , guess what , I'm sick . Went to bed feeling fine, work up feeling like ten tonnes of poop And yesterday I had to go and pick Sam up from nursery as he hadn't kept any food down at all throughout the day Am sooooo pleased it's the end of term - yay!

Knitter - pleeeeeeeeaaaaase go to the party for me. What gave it away that I absolutely detest chidren's parties

Thanks for birthday wishes Ellie. Pleased to hear that Mollie's better. Have written down your e-mail for when I need it

PFJ - you're an angel

Hey Clarrisimo nice to see you

[MisSalLaneous]

Happy birthday for Sunday Soph!!! I hope you feel better before then!

[SuperSoph73]

Thanks Sal. DH suggested last night that we get a babysitter for tomorrow evening & go out to dinner. Really don't think I can be arsed now, even if I do feel better tomorrow - hey ho!

Anyhoo, if I don't get back on here this afternoon. I shall say bye-bye to you lovely ladies & see you in a couple of weeks. DH did get his new lap-top but now we're having problems with the internet connection so probably won't be on here during the hols!

Don't have too much fun without me
Love, Soph xxxxxx

[MisSalLaneous]

Oh nooooo Soph, I was bargaining on laptop during holidays! Will miss you. Have a great break!

[ThePFJ]

Whoops missed your message Ellie - it's good to see you too

[chipmonkey]

It's funny the things you miss when abroad. I'm going to visit my brother in Berlin tomorrow and have to bring Barry's tea and Jameson Whisky. Might pop in and get him some Tayto crisps as well. All the Irish stuff you can't get outside of Ireland!

[LadyBee]

Evening ladies,
Been feeling rubbish in the evenings so not been keeping up so much recently, just did a big read though
Hi Ellie - sorry to hear Molly had CP, hope's she's all better now.

Congratulations on getting that job Sal, well done!

Soph I hope you have a good birthday tomorrow and that Sam is ok

Knitter, fab job on the weight loss! I hope you enjoyed your evening out.

I was supposed to do something similar last week but I completely forgot it - probably for the best, I'm not 'out' about the pg in real life and can barely keep eyes open past 9, so not stunning company. Hopefully I'll see a few of them in a couple of weekends though at a birthday party.

[Scorps]

Well I need to put on weight. Now. I'm 5'9, 8st2 and my bmi is 16.35. I try to eat but have alot of nervous energy feelings when I do. Oddly I eat fine with my parents, but that's it.

Dcs all fine here.

[MisSalLaneous]

Happy birthday, Soph!

Ellie, hope you had a lovely time with Mol and that she's up to her old self again.

Ladybee, thanks. How far are you now? I remember feeling worlds better after those first couple of months - hope it'll be the same for you.

Hey scorps. Well, I've got a couple of tons pounds to donate if you want. Seriously - I'd go for starches. Comfort food and sticks. I should know.

Hmm, I wish I had to put on a couple of kilos now. I'd live off cinnamon sugar pancakes.

[EllieG]

See you soon soph! hope your birthdya was good

Back to work today boo, though have to admit, not having toddler clinging to leg going 'Ooohhhhh Mummmmmeeeee cudddle!' every five minutes is quite nice.

[Fliight]

Hi guys,

I'm really sorry to interrupt, but just thought I ought to let you know that one of your number, Christmaspixie, passed away on Friday.

I know some of you knew she was ill from my previous thread, but wanted to update you just so you knew.

I'm really sorry.

[MisSalLaneous]

Fliight, that is awful. Her poor, poor family, and friends of course. I haven't read your thread, will see if I can find now. Thank you for letting us know.

[Fliight]

MissSal, it was a while ago just asking for thoughts and prayers as she was so poorly. I think Peachy saw it, it was only a smallish thread. xx

[KnitterInTheNW]

Oh goodness, how sad, her poor DDs...

[MisSalLaneous]

Oh Fliight, that is so sad. Her poor family. I want to ask if they're all right, and then realise what a stupid question it is.

[EllieG]

That's so sad. I'm sorry.

I didn't know she was ill, how terrible for her family.

[KnitterInTheNW]

Fliight, ChristmasPixie hadn't posted here for a long time, so we didn't know what was going on, What happened? I can't stop thinking of her family and how they must be feeling.

[Fliight]

Sorry Knitter. I kind of assumed you had all been together on the AN thread too.

She had cancer - diagnosed last June, it's only taken 9 months, it was very aggressive.

I know her family is a very strong one and her dds will of course be fine - as fine as you can be, in the circumstances - though for a while it is going to be very hard for them.

It has all been very fast and very shocking, nobody can believe it.

It makes me very grateful to be here really.
Life, and death, seem fairly random when something like that happens.

I just wanted to give you the news, because althoughw e were close in real life, we didn't tend to post much on the same threads and she was mainly on the ante natal ones, so you lot were her friends on here I think she would want you to know.

xx

[EllieG]

Thank you for telling us. She hadn't been around much since we were an AN thread, I guess now we know why. It's incredibly sad. will be thinking and praying for her family.

[ThePFJ]

I am so sorry for Christmaspixie's family. I am sending them all my thoughts and prayers.

Hugs everyone. xxx

[SuperSoph73]

Hey all. Just first wanted to say my condolences to Christmaspixie`s family. How terribly sad & tragic for them. Sending thoughts & prayers their way.

[SuperSoph73]

Well, as you can see, the internet´s up and running at home - yay And to make an even better day PFJ´s red cross food parcel arrived today Unfortunately DS1 got to the postman first & wanted to know what it was - you should have seen his face light up when he saw it was mini-eggs. Was going to try and discreetly hide them, but no chance now. Thanks sooooo much PFJ. Had a nice day on Sunday. Went and had a big fat english breakfast at a place down south, then DS1, DH & a friend of ours went and played crazy golf (one of DS1´s most favourite things to do)

Sam is still the same, but so far today, hasn´t brought anything up. Fingers crossed.

Do you remember when I had to go for an x-ray on my foot? Well, went to docs this morning and they'd x-rayed the wrong thing so now I've got to go and have another x-ray done - gah!

Have good days everyone xxxx
