2010 Weight Loss Club: Festively Fighting Flab into 2011

Here is the new thread for us to achieve success in

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.

Hey Mrs Blondes!
Do you ever hear from PBM? If so send her my love!

Am making carrot and Ginger soup later

I am going to ask DH for the 30 Day shred for chritsmas, good idea?!

I've been doing the Shred and I'm sure that it has helped me, in combination with the calorie counting, to squeeze get back into my size 12 clothes (even if I wouldn't yet wear them in public ).

I'm on the 2nd time through, and certain excercies that I couldn't even begin the first time through I am now doing

So yes, it's a good idea.

Yes the shred is great.

Well done on your size 12s pretty.

dd is in bed, she's still feeling hot and out of sorts but drinking milk and watching CBeebies. I am knackered as disturbed night again last night with her, she was crying having some sort of nightmare

I went out for dinner last night, bns soup then lentil and nut bake with roast spuds and boiled spuds (surprisingly tasty!) followed by christmas pud which defeated me. Fingers crossed for weigh in this week.

Also going to mince pies and sherry this pm at the school, annual shindig for volunteers

bebe Justin and Andy in snowmen outfits, no wonder your dd had nightmares!

Sts the same again last week, which I'm not very happy with, have not lost anything in the last 3 weeks.

Am trying harder this week, plan to have 3-4 alcohol free nights, exercise more, drink more water & eat more fruit and veg. Hopefully I'll have a better result this week.

I won I won!!! I won the bumper Christmas prize! I am completely shocked! I genuinely never win anything!!

Well done on sts smalline, that is an achievement at this time of year

What have you won Bebe? I'm intrigued

Smalline - sts s still a brilliant achievement!

I entered the MN competition to win a load of stuff for Christmas! And won! I never win! We have had the worst luck this year, I'm hoping this is a sign that the tide is turning I'm so shocked!

congrats bebe what is in the bumper prize?

Lots of different stuff I can't even remember! I'm just completely overwhelmed & flabberghasted! Haven't stopped shaking! It's been such a rubbish year it will genuinely make Christmas a million times better!

Gf - hope dc feel better soon

Bebe- well done on win

Pretty well done for STD

Had a nibbly day today :( but will be good tomorrow ......

No I havnt heard anything from pbm - don't know if she changed her email

Just off fir nativity and dc is a shepherd

What a lovely thing to happen Mrs Bebe!!
Enjoy

Just treated myself to a load of new White Stuff clothes! Very excited! I hardly ever buy myself new clothes, despite having lost loads of weight!!

Hope everyone is having a lovely evening!

I have been quite good today, although I fear I may have eaten too much marzipan!

I love White stuff!! I bought a sort of dress/ tunic top v recently. You certainly deserve some lovely new clothes following your amazing achievement this year!

I got 2 tunics & a waistcoat/cardigan & a pair of leggings! Got Boden voucher coming! I shall need a bigger wardrode at this space, although I have more of a floordrobe at the moment coz the actual wardrode has presents in it rather than clothes!

Why is it DD always has a lie in on a Weds when toddlers starts at 9?!

Fantastic news bebe. I bet you'll get very glamorus and slim in all these great new clothes - or should that be ?

Wonderful news about your Christmas prize Bebe enjoy.

We will want photos bebe!

Just got home from toddlers & DD has sand in her hair! Don't have the energy to give her a bath now! [bad mummy emoticon]

I shall try & get some nice pics of me in my new togs! :o

Feeling very full of cold & DH & I just had a big argument on the phone so feeling a bit deflated after yesterday's high! :(

I also love most of Boden!! X
Currently going to Junior Carols for DC and wearing a v fab Boden coat.

yahoo - have been accepted into a nhs dentist

Dentist will do my root canal for £46 - that's less than a 1/10th of the price my private dentist was charging!!!

£530 if you have forgotten

They have a few spaces left for new patients

'rushes hubby in quickly'

:) :) :) :) :)

Bebe - my GP has just diagnosed trochanteric bursitis in me too Mine must be a really mild case though compared to yours - I've just been getting intermittent pain (mostly during the night and very ill-defined) and only once or twice specific pain while walking. I've been prescribed some anti-inflammatories and told to try to see the physios (although they operate a self-referral system and are notoriously difficult to get hold of unless you go and wait to see one at one of their drop-in clinics), although he hopes that the course of diclofenac (sp?) will be enough.

Blondes: that's really good news. :) (Shows how much work dh needed done that even on the NHS it still cost c.£300!

I was looking up the dentist's number today and found this review - so we're not the only ones who think he is great! :) I've even recommended him to another Glaswegian mumsnetter, who was struggling to find an NHS dentist, as I knew that they had just taken taken on a new dentist - and she is really pleased too.

Pretty - GP isn't even 100% sure that that's what is wrong with me. Hip is mildly better since injection but pelvis is still agony :( Our physios are self-referral too, it is useless! diclofenac did nothing for me at all. Hope it helps you, GP said it varies person to person what works! Plus I'd been having pain for at least 2 months before I had the injection & it definitely got worse in that time!

Blondes - Woohoo! Glad they can squeeze you in and fix your tooth! :)

yah for new clothes

yah for nhs dentists

boo for trochanteric bursitis :(
