Here is the new thread for us to achieve success in Xmas Smile

Old thread is here

I'll change my name to my "Christmas" one after Saturday: I'm helping to organise the Scottish Mumsnet Christmas meet-up and it might confuse things if I change my name.

GT - yes you could end up like my friend with no one parking on their drive.

I've got a general vegetable what was left in the fridge soup for lunch, it is still cooking then I shall whoosh it with my whoosher!

Piste I saw Biggest Loser UK. Also watched most of US last night, but catching the weigh in of it on sky+ tonight.

I am dreading next few days - sisters around, lots of meals out etc. Going to try sooooo hard to resist things and step up the exercise. Will have to do a double lot tonight as no chance tomorrow night as sister staying.

I'm also not going to get my dinner till nearly 7 tonight (unless i eat out with the kids, but they like McDs which is a big no no) so got to try not to pick!

Blondeshavemorefun · 19/01/2011 14:40

i saw biggest loser and did comment on trimmers thread but she didnt get back to me :(

right off to school run and then friend back for tea

RatherBeOnThePiste · 19/01/2011 14:59

What channel is biggest loser USA on?
DH hates this sort of thing he calls it car crash tv!

Blondeshavemorefun · 19/01/2011 15:06

Something Living tue 9pm

Dh quite likes it tho did make a few Rude remarks how large they were

RatherBeOnThePiste · 19/01/2011 15:15

Very rude. Give him a slap.

bebejones · 19/01/2011 15:16

I am being so bad! Have made so many muffins with DD today! Feeling low & comfort eating!

I am not allowed to watch biggest loser! Hmm & It clashes with stuff so can't Sky+ it either!

Can I have some Pisty evils for BT please?! Bastards!!!! Grrrrrrrrrrr! If they don't turn up next week DH is going to go mental!!

Blondeshavemorefun · 19/01/2011 15:56

bebe stay away from the muffins or you will look like one

Also biggest loser is on think Sunday during day - check

What dies it clash with?

GettinTrimmer · 19/01/2011 16:09

I forgot all about my thread over on tellyaddicts Blondes! I'll have to resurrect it.

I did watch the Biggest Loser but missed the first part, watched it again today on iplayer.

The first part where the scary trainer lady aske them why they had gained the weight - they must give them a lot more counselling than just an admission in front of everybody.

am I just a softie or did anyone else feel a bit sorry for the orange couple? I'd like to see them come back for the finale having given it more of a go, they have gym membership, diet advice, etc...

They weren't following what they were supposed to eat and not having enough calories to sustain all that exercise. Their previous attempts to lose weight would have failed if they crash dieted.

RatherBeOnThePiste · 19/01/2011 16:11

Quite so Mrs B, what exactly could be more important than BL?!!!!!

However, BL is also on itv player on demand on the ITV website. Well you could watch it there except you are having technical difficulties. But when they are resolved, there will be nothing stopping you! ( Go Yellows and Go Greens )

These Pisty Evils are for the wanky twats BT who are incompetently unable to sort out your IT/general communication issues.

I also caught some of the USA Biggest Loser on LivingIt.

RatherBeOnThePiste · 19/01/2011 16:15

Cross posts Mrs GT, the programme was edited in such a way for us to feel negatively towards the orange pair,and they did irritate me! I didn't feel sorry for them, I think you must be a nicer person than me!

S-T-L ( Scary trainer lady ) is certainly scary, but I reckon I'd like to have her as a personal trainer because you'd certainly achieve ( or just die )

GettinTrimmer · 19/01/2011 16:16

bebe I have made home made muffins before, bet they are lovely...

Hope you get sorted soon, they should be scared with those pisty evils after them...

RatherBeOnThePiste · 19/01/2011 16:17

Crossed again GT - we're both chatting at the same time!

I've set my thingy to record Biggest Loser USA, although DH will look like this Confused He tends to only like intellectual stuff on BBC 4

GettinTrimmer · 19/01/2011 16:19

Yes, they probably were a bit irritating but still feel sorry for people everybody else dislikes I suppose!

GettinTrimmer · 19/01/2011 16:21

Oh you'll enjoy it Piste, big argument at the end! Only half watching it and doing other stuff at the same time, but Jillian's got a good line in tough love.

My dh is often like this Hmm at some of the stuff I watch.

GettinTrimmer · 19/01/2011 16:22

Oh blimey, dd has just dumped a Thornton's chocolate reindeer in front of me.....

RatherBeOnThePiste · 19/01/2011 16:28

I find it perfect ironing tv! Or when I'm doing something that only needs half my attention. It's not like Silent Witness or something where one has to concentrate!!

Re the reindeer, where on earth has that been hiding?!

GettinTrimmer · 19/01/2011 16:36

dd was saving it in her box of xmas presents! Her room is tiny so not enough space there for everything. So far I have resisted. We still have a tin of chocolate orange segments and a big box of milk tray in the garage. I am not touching them as I really want to shift some sticky out tummy...

RatherBeOnThePiste · 19/01/2011 18:38

We have eaten all our Christmas stuff now fortunately. Can't you donate the chocolates to some raffle?!

smokinaces · 19/01/2011 19:43

loved biggest loser US and that argument - and how true, no way should could have only lost that if she'd stuck to it all 100%.

need to do 30 mins on the stepper tonight but need something inspirational to watch as run out of things on sky+ and Greys isnt on until 10pm

smokinaces · 19/01/2011 20:08

channel 4 now (so channel 4+1 at 9pm) Will My Crash Diet Kill Me? - good watching so far

RatherBeOnThePiste · 19/01/2011 20:54

Started this 10 mins ago, wish I could have started earlier. Thought that lady was going to fall out of her black dress!

GettinTrimmer · 20/01/2011 09:20

I saw the programme on channel 4, thought she looked gorgeous in that black dress but a bit squashy!

I couldn't do any of those diets. If I had to do one, it would be the cabbage soup.

Blondes - Do you know how many points are in Cadbury's mini rolls? On the wheel thing I have I worked out 2 points, but that may be wrong.

Did you manage to settle that baby in your night nannying job?

bebejones · 20/01/2011 09:48

Blondes clashes with sport on a Sunday!! Hmm I shall invesigate further & look for repeats!

Just waving at everyone, must get off the dongle, tis costing a fortune no doubt! :(

Muffins are made with semi skimmed milk & fat free yoghurt & a little bit of butter...so can't be too bad........Hmm
