A workmate of mine was on a drastic diet last year and she lost STONES. About 8+. But every week she brought in cakes and sweets and pies (well, not pies) for the rest of us.

I thought that was a bit nutz. She has since put a lot of the weight back on unfortunately and she no longer brings us all shedloads of empty calories.

I like that Jack Bauer uses a 16 year old Emo vid tutor to cut her hair.

Don't accidentally copy this.

self maintainer?

Please don't tempt me into a DIY job. I really just want a trim and my hairdresser is brilliant but £££ so I am trying to resist but should just go.

Meet with my girl gang last night. Is always going to be like entering the London Troughathon.

I won.

On way I tried on jeans in Dotty Perks. Ankle ones. They were not the size 12s it said on teh hanger. They were 10s but they fit! Never knowingly 10'd me. Says much about how sizes are getting bigger but still. 10s!!!!! They actually looked quite nice but that annoying combo of too tight and falling down at the same time. How do they do that?

EricPicklesFatNeck · 22/04/2010 18:37

3 people admired my hair, asking what i have done. i didn't have the heart to tell them i haven't washed it for 3 days and worn a cycle hat alot.

noddyholder · 22/04/2010 18:38

That is the look I aspire to and mostly fail!

pointydog · 22/04/2010 18:41

JackBauer · 22/04/2010 19:12

Oh dear. Not a good evening.
Had a jacket potato with bollocknase for tea, stomach rebelled, baaad cramps and spent half an hour locked in bathroom weeping.
Came down to discover DD2 had exploded out the back of her nappy while lying under dining table, all over carpet (luckily dark green) and up the back of tshirt and hair DH hadn't even noticed.

DH has been sent out for wine.

It's not the size thing that dictates where I shop, it's the money thing primakr sizes not big enough normally...fingers crossed though, I have money next week so might need to venture into town

Zone, nice one on the 10's!

cyb, I think that looks lovely

Hello. Am drawing a veil over last 24 hours. There was hangover induced MacDonalds for lunch.

Am fat buffer.

Jack - swap you not wanting to be a 20 anymore for me not wanting to be a 24! Teh shopping opportunities open up so much as you go down the sizes.

Cyp - lesson - don't cut your own hair!!! Esp so near to big party. Silly moo.

SuSylvester - well done on getting into jacket. Nice to rediscover things in wardorbe that didn't fit and now do.

Have missed out on Glee so far but bought the first series on DVD today.

Can I ask a question? How do you all manage to post so much? I always have loads of posts to catch up on and then forget what everyone has said or who has said what.

cocolepew · 22/04/2010 19:25

Buda we're (me, DH and 2 DDs)are going to Dublin in a couple of weeks, what can we do? I haven't been for 15 years and we're only there for the weekend.

15 years! coco thats disgraceful!

cocolepew · 22/04/2010 20:13

I know, it's only down the road.

My size 14 skinies are [fanfare] too big!

Weight loss is being helped by new medication I'm taking, it has killed my appetite completely.

EricPicklesFatNeck · 22/04/2010 20:15

cocolepew · 23/04/2010 07:40

Hello losers, according to my shite scales, I'm anything between 9st 8lbs and 10st 4lbs. I'll take the lower weight me thinks.

JackBauer · 23/04/2010 07:43

Good morning losers, how are we all?

Oh my head. DH brought home the most delicious bottle of rose I have had in a while and I nearly drank the whole thing to numb the boredom while watching debate.
But, weighed myself this morning and I am down to 16 6. Considering I was 16 13 last week that's HALF A STONE!!!!!! (and my first admit of my actual weight on this thread...)
Okay, am huge biffer so always going to lose more, but still, considering I haven't cheated or felt hungry, pissed off etc I am so chuffed!

cocolepew · 23/04/2010 07:45

Well done JB, step away from the wine though[stern look]

mummymels · 23/04/2010 07:54

Hi everyone, I somehow missed the changeover to the new thread so I have missed loads and there is no way I can catch up with you all but have a little skim through. Well done on all your losses.
