oh my gawd big congrats to you geordie x

has anyone done slimfast?

RGPargy · 03/11/2008 21:28

Hiya everyone

Went to WW today and i have put ON half a bloody pound. Thing is, i know exactly why i've put on half a pound. it's the wine and Lindor that DP and I have been stuffing most of the week lol.

Bran - i work in Liverpool Street, so not near C Wharf at all i'm afraid! If you saw my wardrobe, you would be gobsmacked at how little amount of clothes i've actually got! I am in desperate need of tops mainly i think. The only casual tops i have are all stained or have holes in and i have 2 or 3 tops that i wear to work constantly. Just as well i only work 3 days a week or i'd end up going in wearing my PJs!!

I would be more than willing to take them off your hands bran and what doesn't fit me i am happy to either freecycle or give to charity. Would have to find a way of getting them tho - i could always find out how much it would cost to get a courier sent to C Wharf from my work. Failing that, we could meet up? It's up to you. If it's too much faffing around, then please feel free to just give them to charity anyway.

Well done for resisting at the parties!!

Pink - i saw a pic of you on FB and you do look like you've lost LOADS of weight now! You're looking brilliant so you are right to flaunt your new found confidence!

Ria - ooooo new pushchair!!! I love it when i have a buggy that i like - it makes me want to actually WALK places!! Good luck with it and make sure you get a rain mac so there's no excuses not to go out!

Geordie - awww you must be sooooo excited!! Keep us updated on your progress please!

geordie83 · 03/11/2008 21:39

Thanks guys!!

Progress not so good so far lol

+1 pound

bran · 03/11/2008 21:43

I could post some tops to you RG. I have two full to the brim supermarket bags of clothes, but I could pick out 4 or 5 reasonable tops and post them and then if they're your size/shape we could meet for lunch or something and I could give you the rest (after I've sorted out DS's school problems, I don't fancy bringing an active 4 yr old into the city unecessarily).

bran · 03/11/2008 21:55

Oh, and my top tip for stretching your wardrobe is to buy a few long-sleeved plain t-shirts from M&S (they're quite cheap) and wear them under your summer tops.

RGPargy · 03/11/2008 22:16

Geordie - try not to worry too much about weight gain. you'll be worrying enough about everything as it is, without worrying about what you can/cannot eat!

Bran - that sounds like a great idea! Thank you so much, it's really appreciated!

Oh and summer clothes + winter clothes = Same.

bran · 03/11/2008 22:25

I've catted you RG so you can send me your address and I will stalk you post some tops to you.

RGPargy · 03/11/2008 22:30

Brilliant bran, thanx so much! I will look out for your email (i know CATs can take their time!).

RGPargy · 03/11/2008 22:31

Oh and please let me cover your postage costs! I will paypal you some £££

bran · 03/11/2008 22:36

You can buy me a coffe if we meet up (at city prices that will be at least 10 times the cost of postage IME).

RGPargy · 03/11/2008 22:40

Done. Not if bran, but when
