Mumsnet Mamas Week 23

[Demented]

It's week 23
What can we see
We're all getting slimmer
How can that be?

Hi there I am at mums at the moment so did not get a chance to email you.

I stayed the same this week which is pretty good as I have not been counting the points.

CONGRATULATIONS everybody! Aren't we doing well?

I've got a dilemma. At my new work there is a tradition of bacon butties at 10 am on Fridays. Neither myself or my boss want to participate in this, but I don't want to be seen as antisocial, and miss out on that contact time. (It's a rented/serviced office in a small complex, and I hardly have any opportunity to meet other people who work in the building).

What would you do?

well done all, Rosin can u go but not eat bacon butties take something else to eat

Can you have something slightly less scary, like toast?

I hate dilemmas like this is it makes me just want to eat the bacon! I would either say I was a vegetarian or eat something else. It is awful though it is like being taken out to dinner or lunch and desperately trying to eat a healthy meal with everyone looking as if to say you are a party pooper.

Thanks for the suggestions.

I quite like the idea of pretending I'm a veggie actually ... I've never actually dieted before, and have always been one of those thinking 'party poopers' of others not joining in with office cakes or whatever, so I HATE the idea of being on the other side. But I've lost 15 lbs in the last 5 wks, and feel so much better for it. I don't even FANCY a bacon butty!
