evening all!
bl**dy freezing here so we have mostly been indoors and eating (DD)or avoiding the cupboards (me)

Katybumper, you sunny soul, can i be a 19 top and 17 bottom then (actually i can if i go to Elvi shops anyway )

so, today
brekkie...2 crumpets and marmite, apple, cappuccino

lunch....pitta filled with pasta sauce and a "hint" of parmesan.

mids...a handful of wheatflakes. cappuccino

eve....roast veg, butter beans, rice. apricots...(then left the kitchen whilst dd and dh attacked the fruit cake)

now..cup of tea and maybe an apple (ho hum)

pollywollybauble · 12/11/2007 20:01

actually am prob a 16 top and 14 bottom at Elvi if anyone wants to drop a dress size without even trying

katybump · 12/11/2007 20:04

maybe we should start a campaign for inbetweenies clothes ,say 13's and 11's and then even if the scales weren't moving we could still drop a dress size

Hi girls

I'm just about to tuck into a slight variation on the Moroccan Tagine.. It looks and smells fantastic, if i do say so myself!

I think i'll have it with some broccoli, and no carbs. Looks like it would do very nicely with a hunk of fresh bread...
I will weigh tomorrow. Dreading it tbh.

well done again, you all sound like you are eating well. My problem is the late evening munchies. gets me every time. I also have a cherry pie in the fridge calling me, every time i make a cup of tea. I will have to dispose of it in a humane way...

katybump · 12/11/2007 20:46

send the pie my way susiecutie ,iluuurve cherry pie mmmmmmm
good luck with the weigh in,you will have lost some and even a little bit is heading in the right direction
i'm having wine instead of dinner tonight.not a big drinker but after the last week i need a glass to chill out.didn't know what i fancied to eat so had a bananawould have had a fag but i gave up before i got pg last year.oh how i sometimes miss the peace and quiet of a smoke in the back garden by myself not the smell or cost though!!

pollywollybauble · 12/11/2007 21:02

no don't send it to katy, send it to me...i hate cherry pie and it could sit in my fridge and try it's best to seduce me with it's wicked wiles

katybump · 12/11/2007 21:07

yes send it to pollywollydoodle.i just tried on a party dress i bought a couple of years ago and have only worn once.IT NEARLY FITS!!!!!!it is a funky black n gold number from h&m and i want to wear it to my new years eve party.pleeeeeaaassse keep me on the straight and narrow.

pollywollybauble · 12/11/2007 21:08

ooh get you slinky malinky!

susiecutiebananas · 12/11/2007 21:09

I know just what you mean katy

As for the pie, it somehow managed to get itself into the oven

Oh god, I'll never loose at this rate.. but well, i just couldnt allow a good cherry pie go to waste could I ? Instead, it will go to my waist !!!

I'll not bother with the thick and creamy fresh custard though... oh no... that can just sort itself out.

susiecutiebananas · 12/11/2007 21:12

I was referring to the quiet moments in the back garden btw

Why can I keep on the straight and blooming narrow I think its a combination or boredom, loneliness and feeling generally down missing Mr Cutie.

Oh, i've added some new pictures to my profile of Isobel, if you're at all interested!

susiecutiebananas · 12/11/2007 21:13

why can't I keep on the straight and narrow...

spottyshoes · 12/11/2007 21:18

Well they do say everything in moderation dont they? Just have a small piece of pie. I was going to have a hefty chunk of cake but after changing my post baby bathing soaked clothes and catching sight of my L.B&T I cut the piece I was having in 3!!!

Am now going to strip off everytime I feel like eating something naughty. Dont know how they will react in Starbucks though

katybump · 12/11/2007 21:18

my mouth is watering susiecutie.

not a slinky malinky more like hootie mcboob pmsl

better lay off the wine,only had a glass and i'm trying on clothes!!!

always look better slightly blurry

katybump · 12/11/2007 21:25

susiecutie isobel is stunning!!! those eyes are going to break some hearts when shes older xx

agree about nakedness.i look better in clothes lol,

pollywollybauble · 12/11/2007 21:34

aww, lovely photos susie (is she looking longingly at your pie?)

why not have a taste of pie and (whisper) throw the rest of it away and squirt washing up liquid on it...that way you have the best of both worlds (yes i know there are people starving in the world but they can't eat your pie!!)

i find that i don't mind looking at myself nude from the front/back(not too much anyway) but when i turn sideways...well....i am about a yard wide with all the sticky out drooping down bits...

katybump · 12/11/2007 21:50

pmsl pollywollydoodle!!!
do any off you do that thing.......
you get up in the morning,get dressed,stand on tiptoes to look in the in mirror[breathing in]brush your hair[well the front bit]and then dash out the door to school,only to catch sight off a fat arsed,big bellied woman with amy winehouse hair in a window reflection and realise OH MY GOD ,THE MIRROR LIES!!!!
happens to me everyday

pollywollybauble · 12/11/2007 21:52

though i usually notice that said lardy arsed bird has forgotten to brush her hair as well!

pollywollybauble · 12/11/2007 21:54

pollywollybauble · 12/11/2007 21:55

katybump · 12/11/2007 22:02

dh is in my bad books due to his broken arm so am free bto indulge.have a nice rest of the night xx

susiecutiebananas · 12/11/2007 22:03

I've finished uploading my pics now... the last 2 took ages!

I['m falling asleep here, so am going to catch an early night... shock horror! I bet a million pounds little cutie will wake up as SOON as my head hits the pillow!

see you in the morning after my weigh in....

katybump · 13/11/2007 08:42

susiecutie how did the weigh in go?

susiecutiebananas · 13/11/2007 11:47

I forgot....

pollywollybauble · 13/11/2007 11:54

sooooosie where are you? did you get lost? are you blinded by tears of happiness/rage?
tell me now!

susiecutiebananas · 13/11/2007 12:05

not good. not good at all 3lbs on

Not like i dont know why though. maybe if i'm SO SO good now, i;ll have a big loss to make up for it??????????? I've just been boosting my metabolism of course

I'm actually really really gutted. I know i've eaten some bad stuff but not actually THAT much.I can only think the lack of mobility is also a huge contributing factor.

bugger bugger bugger bugger.
