THREAD 2.

Can you believe the first one filled up so quickly?

PMSL at Bebe roasting Blondes!!!!!!

I'm doing OK this week, although my arm is now starting to really annoy me. I've had a hinge cast put on and it sticks out and I can't get comfy during the day, let alone sleep [woe is me emoticon]

Hope everyone is OK and keeping it up!

I agree with Blondes about how many people have dropped off the list, it's made me feel better about keeping on going (gives everyone a hearty pat on the back and a firm handshake!)

Blondeshavemorefun · 18/02/2010 09:41

we SHOULD be proud of ourselves, we have done so well - and by summer all of us should be trimmer

bebejones · 18/02/2010 10:18

Supposed to be going to my mums today for school reunion weekend, but the snow has delayed me until 2moro! I hate driving in snow & don't fancy driving across the Cotswolds in heavy snow! Forecast for 2moro is sunny!! Typical! Now got to leave early 2moro morning so I can still meet my friend for lunch! Grrrrr I love snow but this is really annoying, been planning this for months! Sorry to winge!

Blondes -

Jodie - Your poor arm, hope you get the cast off soon!

GettinTrimmer · 18/02/2010 11:12

Morning all

Blondes Good luck with your weigh-in, but again I reckon you'll be OK. And yes, we have done so well, this is the longest I've stuck to a weight loss plan for years.

Things were slipping badly for me with hardly any exercise and a runaway train with the snacking.

My problem in the past has been after a bad day/weekend/week I lost my mojo and gave up, but the thread keeps us going!

Jodie Hope arm gets sorted soon - when will you be able to have the cast off?

See you all later

JaneS · 18/02/2010 15:14

Would it be very rude to join back into this? I did start at the beginning but I got depressed because my weight kept going up/down, up/down and I stopped posting ... but it does seem to be on a genuine downward turn now.

If ppl would rather I stayed out 'til next time, that's ok too!

GettinTrimmer · 18/02/2010 15:28

LittleRedDragon Welcome back We did say anybody who wanted to join again can just add themselves to the list.

Poohbearsmom · 18/02/2010 16:19

Tomorrows weigh in - tbh will be happy if i stay the same, not expecting a loss - but will be kinda pissed off if i gain, though i have over eaten

bebejones · 18/02/2010 19:34

Evening all! Welcome back LittleRed!

Feel like I have had a crap few days food wise, stupid AF on the way & I just want sweet things all the time!!

Glad I didn't drive today! It has been snowing since before 10am. (Still snowing lightly now) we have about 5-6inches! Even metioned where we live on local news as being one of the worst places affected!! So at the moment I'm unsure when I am going to be leaving, might have to be 2moro afternoon (see if it melts at all) or even a mad dash on Sat morning!

Disenchanted3 · 18/02/2010 20:55

am taking a little break from MN, am spending too much time and wasting too much energy here,

will check in at somepoint,

good luck girls xx

Skins - I just updated you, check to see I've altered your weight correctly. Back in a minute, just boiled my eggs!

GettinTrimmer · 19/02/2010 08:41

We'll miss you Dis and hope to see you soon.

IKWYM about Mumsnet, sometimes I've been a long time reading a thread on AIBU, then so much has been said I end up not posting after skim reading for an hour. Most days I'm finding I just come on this thread and don't bother with the rest, or it's too time consuming.

Bebe Good luck with your drive, and have fun!

Blondeshavemorefun · 19/02/2010 11:20

DIS you CANT leave us - we all need each others support, but you know where we are when you are, so keep up the good work you have done so far x

SKINS well done on 2 lb loss

BEBE safe motoring

i sts the same, but tbh i am not suprised after all the eating I have done this week

Thanks for letting me come back! I have been lurking but not daring to post while the weight was yo-yoing (I got up to 11st 5 )

Bebe - safe journey! I'm another one craving sweet stuff ... trying to resist DP's chocolate atm

Poohbearsmom · 19/02/2010 11:49

Now for a big off topic whinge... Im n hosp i suffer from reoccuring internal peri-anal abcess & it flared up agn couple days ago was hoping i wud b able to wait it out at home but i was n too much pain so had to come n, they r very good & iv had my 1st examination had more bloods taken, they put n a cannula but seem to hav forgotten to come back wit my drip... but most imp they gave me some morphine so am quite spacey & chilled altho if i dare move tis return of da yelping... got less then 3hrs sleep l.nite all broken up by being n too much pain also my poor lil ds1 was sick agn, woke up wit temp ear ache sore throat & his horrible cough back, he had a nightmare bout a BEE which really freaked da baba out & of course he wudnt take any calpol, but he took some for me b4 i left so felt better leavin him... Gosh im quite stoned other then my epidurals & da odd paracetomol iv not had any real painkiller n over 4 years cause iv bn continually pg or bf'in! dh says i shud take whatever drugs they want to giv & jus stop bf'ing cold turkey dat im more imp to him (ds2) then da milk but i jus think its too severe... Any advice much appriciated on da food side im not able to eat so...

Blondeshavemorefun · 19/02/2010 12:03

LRD i would like to be 11 st 5

PBM oh no{{HUG}} hope you are not in too much pain- drugs are good

think of the good its doing your diet,no crappy food in hospital lol

blonde likes to think of every silver lining

GettinTrimmer · 19/02/2010 12:53

PBM So sorry, your poor thing I agree with your dh, take the drugs. Just get yourself better. How long do you think you'll be in hosp?

LRD Like Blondes, I can't wait to be 11 stone 5 either! Good luck with it all, are you weighing in on Mondays?

Blondes Well done for staying the same with all the yummy eating out.

My ds is still poorly, he's got a cold but it's really seemed to drag him down, just been to a soft play area and didn't have a nice time, he came over to me crying about 3 times. Back to school on Monday...

JaneS · 19/02/2010 20:34

Hugs to PBM. Hope you're feeling better soon.

Sorry blondes, GettinTrimmer - didn't mean to be so tactless, I just meant it's damn annoying to gain more weight above the start weight than I've now lost. I am pretty tiny so it all shows, if you know what I mean?

Really sorry ... will try to keep my foot out of my mouth from now on!

Blondeshavemorefun · 19/02/2010 20:48

not tactless at all - dont worry about it

i will be back to 11 stone - which suits me iykwim
