Oh dear what are you two like aay!

Am just tucking into a big bowl of porridge with hemp seeds and raisinsSmile. Off to see Lion King this eveningGrin.

Smalline · 10/07/2011 16:45

I've put on 2lbs this weekSad so I am back to 12st 2lbs

Furball · 11/07/2011 06:48

I'm 12st 13 Blush

I know I've said it before but I'm going to really really try this week. I have been eating literally like a horse. (obviously)

If I turn sideways I could easily pass for a 7+ month pregnant belly! - and unfortunately that is not an exaggeration.

Tortoise · 11/07/2011 08:24

Ive no idea what I weigh so must remember to check in the morning. Didn't eat much yesterday. Was too busy at DD2s party! I did eat cake though. Kids ate all the food so fast that I didn't get any!
More cake in about 2wks on her actual birthday! lol.

No postings for a week? How are you doing small and furball?
I'm ok but back to 13st! Didn't think I had eaten that much just not the right foods. Summer hols now so probably won't do very well now. Going to try and take dc out on lots of bike rides. I haven't been on one for ages. weather has been bad most of the time or I just havent bothered!
Hope both of you are ok.

I'm here - but feel exactly the same as you tortoise

I am down to only 2 pairs of trousers that fit Blush

We are off to wales next week with the bikes, hopefully that'll sort me out as I really need a good kick up my ever fattening arse.

You'd of thought summer time and sunshine would make us try harder, what are we like

Tortoise · 23/07/2011 10:08

I have 2 pairs of trousers that fit too and 2 pairs of cropped trousers. Maybe if we actually get some sun now it will give US a boost! Plus I may have a new man! That should make me want to look better!

Smalline · 23/07/2011 18:17

Ooh a new man tortoise tell me more!!!Grin

I got a new job this week at the school where I work as a midday assistant, come September I will also be a LSA in one of the year 2 classes, I have been working towards this for a few years, first reading with the children, then working in the the classroom whilst doing my NVQ2, I am so chuffed.

Off to Greece tomorrow for a week, haven't bothered to weigh myself this week, will wait until I come back from holiday and then get back on the right trackSmile.

Furball · 23/07/2011 19:20

Smalline · 23/07/2011 20:28

Hello ladies, am back from Crete, had a fabulous time, ate loads, the Greek salads were gorgeous, but that was only startersGrin, followed by all the scrumptious main courses and desserts.

Weighed in at a whopping 12st 8lbs this morning so I have put on 8.5lbs on holidaySad.
