It is frrrrreeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeezing! Brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr :(

Had to take poor DD to see the nurse, she has cut her foot...no idea how! Confused Poor little thing! :( Oh my word it is cold outside, my face actually hurts from the cold!

I am sort of hoping for a loss....not sure it's gonna happen! :(

Blondeshavemorefun · 03/03/2011 11:31

Porr dd bebe :( how is foot?

bebejones · 03/03/2011 12:16

Well it's all very odd Confused On Sunday she said she hurt it, no obvious signs of anything. Monday there was a paper cut type cut which we just thought would heal. Then yesterday evening it looked quite deep & open & the skin around it was peeling! :( Nurse reckons it must have bled alot by looking at it now, but no signs of blood anywhere (socks, shoes, sheets, floors)!! Confused She seems ok though, very pleased with the big plaster that the Nurse put on it!!

Blondeshavemorefun · 03/03/2011 14:44

weird Hmm but glad dd likes plaster

RatherBeOnThePiste · 03/03/2011 16:12

Poor cut DD, gald she likes her plaster! Mine are allergic to plasters they make them look like they've been burnt, not vairy nice.

GettinTrimmer · 03/03/2011 16:47

We have charlie and lola plasters here Smile

weird there is not sign of blood anywhere Hmm glad she's happy.

so....weigh in day tomorrow, my first weigh in for two weeks and I have been less than saintly Blush Ok today though.

pretty you look amazing, all that 30 day shredding/healthy eating has paid off.

Blondeshavemorefun · 03/03/2011 17:03

im weighing as well trimmer

we seemed to have lost half our group :(

RatherBeOnThePiste · 03/03/2011 17:07

I'm weighing in tomoz too. Hoping for a sts actually!! My shape is def changing with my running. On the running thread there is lots of talk about developing a corner in ones backside. I have one!!

Blondeshavemorefun · 03/03/2011 17:14

theres a running thread? why sts, have you been a bad pesky pisty?

did no one like my comments on tbl thread?

anyone still watching usa?

RatherBeOnThePiste · 03/03/2011 17:15

Ooo. I'm not sure what all the italics were for!!

This is what I put on the running thread about my butt.

Well. My legs used to start getting progressively bigger until they incorporated my backside. Now my legs go up and then there is a definitely corner as my backside joins my legs!

There will be no photos!!

Blondeshavemorefun · 03/03/2011 17:16

hehe

RatherBeOnThePiste · 03/03/2011 17:19

Mrs B. I failed to record it so I've been avoiding that thread. I shall have to catch it on Saturday. I thought I'd sorted it because I don't need to record junior doctors, DD can catch that on iplayer.

I am sure I will like your comment when I read it!

RatherBeOnThePiste · 03/03/2011 17:21

Anyway B it's Marchlands ce soir!!!

Blondeshavemorefun · 03/03/2011 17:24

piste lol, i did the same when sky+ died

usa was good -all i will say is that i didnt expect the group who won, to win :)

yah for marchlands, on that thread now, plus also last mad dogs

smokinaces · 03/03/2011 18:04

I saw USA, sure I commented? Will go check!!

I watched first Mad Dogs and then didnt bother. they're on sky+ but havent watched them

Saw the dietician at the hospital today. Am basically doing what i need to - but need an extra carb at lunchtime. PCOS is a bugger basically. But good news? I came up on their scales as 74kg, and she wants me at 66kg for BMI of 25 - only 16lb basically, which is achievable.

smokinaces · 03/03/2011 18:12

ok, make that 19lb - just worked out the scales there did me 3lb heavier than at home, was 11st 6 this morning and 11st 9 at the hosptial this afternoon (about right with food/jeans etc)

GettinTrimmer · 03/03/2011 18:34

I've missed the USA BL Blondes.

Yes, several slinkies need to report for duty. If any of you are reading this, look at me, I'm having difficulty climbing back on the wagon, but still keeping it in mind with my slinky mates, at least it is stopping me getting back where I was.

smokinaces · 03/03/2011 19:20

when I disappeared off here there were a few reasons I didnt come back straight away

  1. couldnt find you all as werent on my recent threads
  2. had put on weight so felt shit
  3. wasnt motivated
  4. thought I'd been forgotten about and felt silly popping back in
  5. felt I'd missed something in the conversation and didnt want to join in again

that being said, if one of you guys had tracked me down through my recent posts and PMd me I would probably have come back earlier (need to be loved me!!)

reckon we should see if those missing are still posting on MN and mail them this thread link in the hope they return??

Blondeshavemorefun · 03/03/2011 22:26

Good point Smokin :)

Anyone who is reading this we all miss you and come back :)

Been to the gym and kicked arse and just eaten chicken and ham low fat subway - was yummy :)

Here's to a loss tomorrow as sts the last 2 weeks - but then I had gone over weekies

smokinaces · 03/03/2011 22:28

good luck for the morning Blondes. I have a friend coming over tomorro evening, and Saturday evening for drinks - not sure I will handle it well!!

am craving a veggie delite sub now too!!

have munched through 3 nectarines today, think I am addicted.

have we got the most recent list of weights? so we can track who's missing/?

smokinaces · 03/03/2011 22:29

am actually now thinking of switching to a Friday weigh in. mmmmm. Might be better for me. Think I will trial it for a couple of weeks, so will join you guys in the morning!

Blondeshavemorefun · 03/03/2011 22:40

I find smoking that weighing on a Friday works for me

I seem to go out and eat/drink or have takeaways at weekends and if been bad then have 5 days to get it off

But for others like Bebe it means she is very bad and is better off weighing on a Monday so she is good at weekends

It's whatever works

smokinaces · 03/03/2011 22:51

See, I have in the past been like Bebe. But with some very busy weekends planned I think to go in on a high, determined to keep it off could work better. Mmmm. Going to weigh in tomorrow morning and see how I fair for the next 2-3 weeks.

who's missing off the list then? Hecate, Poorbearsmom, Jodie and Disenchanted the major ones not seen for a long while I think?

RatherBeOnThePiste · 04/03/2011 06:48

Popping in quickly. Sts here and am good with that!
