I don't think it's because he's clueless, he knows what's good and what's not. He doesn't normally come home with pizzas and crisps, so I don't really know what's going on. He's a couple of stone overweight at the moment and wants to lose it, so you'd think he'd be a bit more understanding! I have always felt that he would love me whatever size or shape I was, so I don't really understand why it would bother him if I lost weight. It never has before.

Well done Yorkiegirl ! I went to class too..... put on a pound . Actually, I wasn't too disappointed as she had said last week that my weight may fluctuate because of increasing my calorie allowance. Never mind - a whole new week to go to lose it again.

Evesmama · 14/02/2005 21:16

Sorry Evesmama. I am around but was skulking on another parenting site (which is c**p incidentally) out of pure noseyness! There really is nothing better than MN is there? Can't stand all the moving smileys and clutter of profile cartoon pictures on other sites.

Evesmama · 14/02/2005 21:39

Actually, I've noticed it has been quiet lately. Perhaps due to school hols? Maybe everyone has had to give their children some attention over the last few days i.e. drag themselves away from MN to feed and occasionally speak to them - the very thought!!

Evesmama · 14/02/2005 21:46

which thread??i like looking at piccys

miam · 14/02/2005 21:46

Well I just can't seem to work it out atall. The current messages keep rolling off the top of the screen. So by the time I have seen something that looks vaguely interesting - it has gone, never to return (unless I log in again grrr). And why must they all have those stupid cartoon pictures? You can't see what the site is about for all the junk floating around the place. Have given up now - just too frustrating for words.

clicked on the people and chat icon and that took me through but it takes 24-56 mins to down load, so will do it another day, but thanks for enlightening me

Titania · 15/02/2005 09:22

Hiya. Lost a pound last week. Nothing spectacular but still.

I have however lost 2 inches round my waist!!! MY JEANS ARE TOO BIG!!!! I need to go and buy a belt this week i think!!!

coppertop · 15/02/2005 09:33

Hi everyone!

Sorry I've not been around much this week. Can't believe it's Tuesday already. Another one here being sabotaged by a dh. I don't think he does it deliberately. He's one of those lucky so-and-so's who can stuff themselves with huge amounts of food but never put any weight on. He doesn't seem to understand that it's not like that for the rest of us.

On a slightly more bizarre note, I seem to have lost weight from.............my wrists! I've had to adjust my watch-strap!! Now if only I could transfer that little bit across to my stomach instead......

marj · 15/02/2005 09:38

Good for you Titania! Go and buy that belt!
Well done EM, that is a brilliant loss this week.
Miam, dont worry about the pound on, you are doing so well and are so close to goal. I just wish I had your motivation to exercise!

marj · 15/02/2005 09:39

btw, I went onto another parenting site. Dont know whether its the one you were talking about but it did my head in. I tried to go onto another thread and kept having to log back in. Sorry, but I cant be bothered with that!
