Hello losers.
Typed a big thing last night but comp froze and I can't remember it now.
tjis morning's news - dh says I have weird nasty breath, not normal bad breath apparently. Am concerned. Perhaps I need to biff to not be smellY? Am NOT a low-carber.

HELP MEEEE

MamaG · 02/05/2010 07:25

/do you just use on toes, or fingers too?

MamaG · 02/05/2010 07:25

gherkin - brush your tongue AND teeth

JackBauerIsZonerrific · 02/05/2010 07:30

Oy, twas me€ measuring, and don't laugh.
Spent all of yesterday evening with DH showing him my spreadsheet and chart and saying 'but look' If he 'Yes, dear's' me once more I'm smacking him.

Keep not watching arlington road, I love tim robbins so keep meaning to but never get round to it, is it good? have heard mixed tbh.

gherkin, are you NO carbing or LOW carbing, I find no carbs means stinky breath from ketosis, but I had muesli and make a point of having something good carbyb every day so I don't biff on laods of carbs cos am missing out iyswim.

Not going to bother getting a paper otday as still have yesterdays grauniad I never got to read cos dd2 was ill, so will be 24 hours behind the rest of the world.

MamaG · 02/05/2010 07:31

I never read the papers, or watch the news

JackBauerIsZonerrific · 02/05/2010 07:31

ooh, i like mint. have purple nails and beetle blue/green toes. dd helped choose.

MamaG · 02/05/2010 07:39

I tend to stick to light colours on hands due to me being a bit wobbloy applying right hand

gherkinwithapurplemerkin · 02/05/2010 07:39

Nope not low-carb. Had pasta last night FGS! Am clearly just rotting unside. Gah.

JackBauerIsZonerrific · 02/05/2010 07:52

Were you drinking? Was there garlic? Were you smoking?
It might not even be the food making your breath smell so don't fret.Tell your DH not to be such a big girl and brush your teeth and tongue as mamag says, and a mouthwash if you have one.

BudaisintheZONE · 02/05/2010 08:10

Morning all.

Yes Su - twas Jack measuring, not me.

Well done Jack - great result.

gherkin - the breath thing could be dehydration. Are you drinking enough water?

Liking those minty colours for nails.

LOLed at the Free State thread! Tis confusing.

After a few little 'treat's Fri/Sat - curry, 3 mouthfuls of brownie, 2 crisps, cooked breakfast, bbq ribs am weighing slightly heavier this morning. Not much. But enough to prompt me to reign back in today, drink lots of water and get out for a walk.

Bought lots of nice treats for weekend. Plums, kiwis, grapes, blueberries and strawberries. How good am I?

Just having bowl of granola with blueberries and will go out for walk in a while. Lunch will be salads left over from last night. Snacking will be fruit with yoghurt. Dinner tonight is BBQ lamb with salad and asparagus.

Babysitter is coming over this evening to hand deliver wedding invitation. Wedding is 15th May which is my birthday. Never been to a Hungarian wedding before. Have never met her fiance as he is always to shy apparently. Could be interesting esp if nobody else speaks English.

JackBauerIsZonerrific · 02/05/2010 08:35

Mornign Buda, Naughty buda!
Food sounds good, not sure what I am having for lunch, probably soup and fruit, roast chicken and veg for tea.
My birthday is 22nd may, so not long now. Wedding sounds fun, my hungarian friend has just texted me to say she has booked her flights home for 2 months over the summer so I am sulking about hungary at the moment as I wont hav anyone to go to the beach with our dd's, grrr

dehydration good point, I am not drinking eough, I know. Doesn't help that my cold tap is bust so you only get a tiny wee out of it and it takes 6 million hours to fill a glass

BudaisintheZONE · 02/05/2010 08:37

How is DD jack?

cyb · 02/05/2010 08:41

Ha! I'm here

but very happy

EVERYONE noticed weight loss last night (about bloody time)Tescos shoes much admired arf. Considering I got ready i literally half an hour

felt fab, danced, chatted, drank too much champers, had soooo amny presents, I mean embarrassingly so, dh had decorated the venue with massive pics of me saying 'Sarah- A retrospective-40 years of style', Mum and Dad did photos of me and my dreadful hair styles over the years, sausages and chips very welcome... we got kicked out by security at 12.30!

cyb · 02/05/2010 08:43

Hey are we all April/may babies here?

BudaisintheZONE · 02/05/2010 08:45

Sounds like a fab night Cyb! Esp the noticing of weight loss!

Makes sense if we are all April/May I suppose - if we are all Taureans - Taureans love their food.

gherkinwithapurplemerkin · 02/05/2010 08:54

Yay glad you ha d agreat night cyb
Sarah - v classy name

As for april/may - pshaw. December here AND PROUD.

Komodo Breath receding thanks to food and cuppa (and oral hygiene too_) Think it may be dehydration - good point.

isthatporridgeinyourzone · 02/05/2010 08:59

Fab Cyb. Hadn't thought of you as a Sarah. When I meet another Mnetter I am driven to call them by their MN name. Worst fashion period?

may 31st here

Themasterandmargaritas · 02/05/2010 09:03

Excellent partying cyb, was the dress much admired?

There's an empty bottle of tequila here, I think it has my name on it. I'm too scared to get out of bed in case I fall down. Perhaps a tactical chunder may help.

Bobs I am small of boob and always do MnS bikinis. Everyone always comments.

EricPicklesFatNeck · 02/05/2010 09:09

well done on the party cyb! now what are we going to live for?

cyb · 02/05/2010 09:12

Right I need to know exactly everyones birthdays PLEASE LIST and lol at tactical chunder.

I'm freeking STARVIN and have made the school girl error of having NO bread in the house (in the zone and all that....)

Yes TheMaster dress WAS much admired, esp orange colour. I had slight issues with worrying that control pant bottoms would peek out from under hem (especially when I was throwing shapes to MARRS Pump up the Volume)but I threw caution to the wind.

Use 'airbrush' leg make up, very very good.

Thankyou for keeping me in the Zone ladies...it really paid off for me not to have any body worries last night!Sooo liberating

gherkinwithapurplemerkin · 02/05/2010 09:15

lol at Pump Up the Volume. ON eof pop's finest moments surely

JackBauerIsZonerrific · 02/05/2010 09:15

Oh sounds fab cyb, I am just gemini, so always eat for 2....

DD better this morning, ended up in her bed at 4am in the vsain hope she would stfu and go bsck to sleep, which worked for an hour.
Temp is better, onyl slightly raised, and she has eaten for 1st time in 36 hours. Still not right though, might try an hour in nice park later and then come home for MOto GP action.

JackBauerIsZonerrific · 02/05/2010 09:18

I have that on my running music list, along with the hipping and hopping sugarhill gang. (and vanilla ice)

I am May 22nd, will be 32.

DH has just come downstairs highly confused as he has lost half a stone this month and he can't work out why. Probably because I have stopped making us snacks in teh evening and his mega stress not eating during the day thing means it is falling off him too!

EricPicklesFatNeck · 02/05/2010 09:20

i am february, which is a rubbish time to have a birthday
