HAPPY EASTER! :) Have a lovely chocolate filled day my fellow slinkies! :)

RatherBeOnThePiste · 25/04/2011 21:20

I think I may have over done it Blush

I think we probably all have Piste. I am seriously dreading weigh in this weekend. Thank god my car has died and I have to walk everywhere tomorrow when its at the garage - chance to redeem myself maybe.

smokinaces · 25/04/2011 21:33

But on the upside I did get extra points for sex yesterday Grin

GettinTrimmer · 26/04/2011 10:10

I know the feeling Piste, I was as sick as a dog last night, felt really poorly, just too much rich food.

Extra points if done energetically smokin Wink

I was thinking about a meet up. Can we do Saturdays?

A few dates:

11th June
18th June
25th June
16th July
23rd July

Then we're into summer holidays

bebejones · 26/04/2011 12:37

I'm free on 4 out of the 5 dates...BUT I'm going to my mums for the 18th June so don't want to drive up that way again either side of that date. Also driving up there for a school reunion 9th July & another wedding 29th July so that sort of rules me out for June/July. Really sorry. I just can't afford the petrol to make a 240mile round trip again in those months plus train fair plus going out money! Then August is DDs birthday! I'm being a PITA aren't I? Blush :(

I have been v bad this weekend. It shall continue this week/end & I shall be on the wagon next Tues...promise!

In other news...I made talk roundup! :o I'm famous!!!

smokinaces · 26/04/2011 12:38

Saturday days would mean bringing the sproglets - not so much of a problem with nice weather as we could meet at a park or something. Saturday evenings would mean no kids for me.

Only date I think at the moment might clash is 11th June, but need to check diary I think.

prettybird · 26/04/2011 13:06

Grasps nettle and admits how far she had slipped

Finally goinog to weigh-in. 12 stone 8lb :(Blush

At least I've started doing the Shred again and went for a 2mile run with dh already today :)

prettybird · 26/04/2011 13:11

Dates wise, I could consider a day trip down via Easyjet if it were during the day. If in the evening is there a hairy trucker fellow slinkie I could cadge a bed from?

Easrly June dates are best for me. Glasgow schools stop for the summer holidays on 24 Juneb, so the Easyjet prices will probably already be sky high for 25 June and we will probably be off to Greece early July. But by the same logic, the late July date is probably OK too

GettinTrimmer · 26/04/2011 14:17

So does 18th June look as if it may be a possibility?

So have I understood right Bebe, you are going to your mum's in Luton on 18th June?

daytime or evening would be fine for me, I will get a train to London, don't mind about sproglets being there or not, but would have to get a train from Waterloo.

Pretty we will get back in the zone, if we plan to lose 1/2 stone before the meet up if we do it 'twill give us a goal.

Smalline · 26/04/2011 14:21

I can make June, was thinking of having a party for my 50th on the 16th July, am not available 23rd July.

prettybird · 26/04/2011 14:33

You youngster you smalline am I the oldest one on here? Blush

That reminds me, I should download the pictures off my camera of my 50th and show off the lovely cake I made plus the 50 red roses! ;)

prettybird · 26/04/2011 14:36

18th June would give me 7 weeks to break 12 stone again Blush and mybe even get back to where I'd got to in February :)

bebejones · 26/04/2011 14:44

I'm going to my mums then, yes...but it's to go to my friend's wedding (which my mum is taking, she's a vicar)!

Think you will ahve to do without me! :(

GettinTrimmer · 26/04/2011 14:55

just been looking at your thread in talk round up Bebe Grin we are going to a local pub on the day of the royal wedding, apparently the town planner will be in the stocks!

bebejones · 26/04/2011 15:10

We've had a change of venues (still doing food) but going to PILs as their place is bigger! Probably going to have a family BBQ as well this weekend! It's going to be a bad week!

lol at town planner in the stocks....best save that rotting veg then! :o

Smalline · 26/04/2011 20:58

Thanks prettybird

I wasn't going to drink tonight, trying not to drink alcohol during the week, but I haven't had the best of days so I might have a glass or 2 of wineGrin, have been very good eating wise.

GettinTrimmer · 27/04/2011 16:05

Hi all

Piste are you still thinking of low carbing?

you are all quiet today!

RatherBeOnThePiste · 27/04/2011 17:05

Haven't really had a chance to catch up, but yes GT, starting low carbing on Tues 3rd. Hopefully with Bebe and anyone else?! Just doing it for a month as a bit of a kick restart.

This is what I am cutting out, what have I missed ?!

Pasta
Potatoes
Lentil things like chick peas/ kidney beans etc.
Rice
Bread
Booze
Cereal
Crisps
Pastry things
Cake stuff

Gulp.
But what about bananas? Only I do eat those. Bebe - are we allowed bananas?!

Anyone else on board???!!!

Tis only for a month?! My birthday is 9th June and I am going to stop then.

OP posts:
bebejones · 27/04/2011 19:37

Chocolate & refined sugary stuff.

I will eat bananas and fruits as the carbs are good ones IYSWIM? I shall also be having ryvita with lunch as I need some carbs chasing a toddler all day!

prettybird · 27/04/2011 19:40

I'll also low carb and will cut out complex carbohydrates like potatoes and pasta - but keep the veg and fruit. I'll try and cut back on - but won't cut out - bananas and will fail to cut out the wine Wink

RatherBeOnThePiste · 27/04/2011 20:06

Ok so fruit and veggies are fine.
If I keel over at school I may have to rethink this!

OP posts:
RatherBeOnThePiste · 27/04/2011 20:08

Imagines the above!
It wouldn't be my finest hour would it?!

Thinking of you Blondie xx
