Blondeshavemorefun · 07/03/2011 19:34

I'm waiting for the spirits ........ Ghostly or booze ones

RatherBeOnThePiste · 07/03/2011 19:48

Stop bloody well stuffing breadsticks GT

Massive kick up GT's arse...

Blondeshavemorefun · 07/03/2011 23:08

trimmer - stop eating breadsticks!!!!

Saying that , I actually don't think they are that bad compared to crisps/cakes etc

bebejones · 08/03/2011 13:04

Happy Pancake day! :o

Have been ever so angelic today in preparation for a pancake feast later! SO excited! Shall of course not be using butter to cook the pancakes and will be sticking to fruit/low fat fillings...and trying to avoid adding sugar! Hmm Can't wait!

Trimmer - don't think breadsticks are that bad either.

If it wasn't so flaming cold I'd be tempted to go out & about with DD today. But the sunshine is not as warm as it looks! Brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!

GettinTrimmer · 08/03/2011 14:41

well slinkies I've done extremely well on the bread front today, for lunch an open blt, low fat mayo and quorn bacon, low fat yogurt and some grapes Smile

I've got no eggs = no pancakes unless the dc really really want them, pancakes are not one of my weaknesses.

No more breadsticks.

Enjoying new job, also just been offered another job as a census form collector.

Blondeshavemorefun · 08/03/2011 14:51

congrats with new job :)

RatherBeOnThePiste · 08/03/2011 19:10

Mrs B, what time is BL USA? I'm going to have to watch it live or it will be Saturday again. DH is away and I have a cunning plan to go to bed and watch it.

RatherBeOnThePiste · 08/03/2011 19:12

Ignore me
I have found it. I think Stephanie or another black girly tonight will go.

Blondeshavemorefun · 08/03/2011 19:25

I shall be in bed as well piste - no doubt with mr b moaning that I'm watching fat programmes again - sky+ something the other day about fat obese kids :(

To me that's neglect :(

Plus does anyone rem Georgia ? She was brittains fattest teenager

Was 33 stone and 15yrs :(

She went to fat camp and lost 15stone to get to 15ish stone and looked brill

A year later she has put on 25 stone Shock :( and now weighs 40+ stone at 17yrs

RatherBeOnThePiste · 08/03/2011 19:35

Yes I remember that prog. Blimee what a shame. I thought she was doing well?! Clearly not then!

DH calls this stuff car crash tv. But he's in Washington so I don't have to worry about him bleating on. I will enjoy it! I wonder how many weeks left. Do you know B? You tend to be the Oracle on these matters!

So jim jams on just before 9. Lovely.

Blondeshavemorefun · 08/03/2011 19:47

Pmsl at oracle

Think there are 5 more weeks

bebejones · 08/03/2011 20:38

OMG! How do you put on 25 stone in a YEAR?!?! Shock That poor girl! :(

Blondeshavemorefun · 08/03/2011 21:41

I know Bebe :(

Apparently when she got home her mum was cooking fish and chips and ordering takeaways

It's a sad fact of life that some people just don't have the brains to reliese that if you eat that type of food you will gain wright and fast :(

She did so well but to put on that amount of weight in a year is awful

She needs a gastric band so actually isn't Hungary or even jaws worries up

Or she will be dead soon :(

RatherBeOnThePiste · 09/03/2011 07:44

It is child abuse. Her mum really must be dense. To put on that much is going some.

bebejones · 09/03/2011 07:48

That is just so so sad. :( Why would anyone do that to their child? :(

Had toooooooooo many pancakes last night, but they were SO good! Maybe I will give up food for lent?! Hmm

Blondeshavemorefun · 09/03/2011 12:44

I'm a friends for lunch and having tuna and sweetcorn jacket and salad and then an alpen bar for a snack :)

Babysitting tonight so will eat what the kids do - possibly spag Bol and got some pickled onion monster munch so I shouldn't eat their sweetie tin Grin

bebejones · 09/03/2011 18:45

Lunch sounds good Blondes :)

Just had some celery soup, yum!

I am absolutely LIVID with SIL. We went to her sons 2nd Birthday bash on Sat. She had told me 2 weeks ago that he had had conjunctivitis & been treated. So imagine our surprise when we turn up & he is still gunky! Can't exactly turn round & leave after driving over an hour to get there. Of course DD has now got it (and I think I may be getting it too), I am SO angry with her for being so irresponsible not to tell us that he still had it. DDs eyes are permanently streaming green gunk this afternoon :( Off to the doctors again for the poor little mite in the morning. If I was brave enough I'd rant aboout it in AIBU!! Wink

On top off this, having a real battle getting DD to poo in the toilet! Blush Really starting to drive me up the wall!

Trying my hardest not to resort to wine & chocolate! :o

Blondeshavemorefun · 09/03/2011 19:46

lunch was good, but been a bit bad with mb home made bread, smoothered in lurpack light and marmite, so no spag bol for me tonight :(

bebe grrrrrrrrrrr at sil how irresponsible - i would be very pissed off Angry

bebejones · 09/03/2011 20:03

Mmmmmm bread! I can't tell you off coz I've just eaten 2 hm cheese twists & a bowl of fruit compote (with cream)!

DH thinks I'm being OTT about being cross at SIL, but poor DD is really suffering. Just feel it was really wrong of her not to tell us! I know she wanted to mark her DSs Birthday but she could have postponed, he's 2 FFS he doesn't know!
