Sun????????


Whats that, does it hide behind the rain and clouds :-( :-(

:-) :-) :-)

Sylvia and Gins well done on your weight loss.

Sun is out today hope it lasts :-)

Not to worry Cyns, by the time I get to your age, I might be the same size as you ;-)

Thanks Sylvs......that cheese and tomato pie does seem very tempting.


OH doesn't take sugar in either tea or coffee and I think he will find it relatively easy to manage a life without too much sugar. We rarely eat dessert and have cut back on biscuits, cakes etc. His downfall was probably fruit and nut bars!!!


Gins........I wish size 12s would sit nicely on me.... :-(


In fact, I'd be pleased if size 16's sat somewhere close by :-(


Fortunately, my height carries me through.... ;-)

Oooh Sylvs, just noticed your weight loss, wow....well done :-D

Im sitting at 1.5st loss at the moment but have been back onto the campaign this week. Size 12s are sitting very nicely but I cant get into a 10 without looking like a sack of spuds, tied in the middle :-0

Good morning all !

Late breakfast today as I seem to have had a little lie in :-)

I see someone has eaten all the 'Ulster Fry-up's but not to worry, I will have Huevos Rancheros - Thank you Sylvia <3

I think this is the stage that they think I'm at .................. I have to go within the next month for another test.


I must say that I have found the diet adjustment very easy ................ and it hasn't affected t'other half very much at all.


I just cut out all added sugar (eg, in tea and coffee), cut down the size of the protein part of my meal as well as the overall size of the meal, and add some extra veggies.

I try to buy prepared foods (eg, cereals, bread) that have the least amount of sugar, and I don't eat sweet desserts. I water down fruit juice drinks, and only have about 4 or 5 oz at breakfast and with dinner.


and ......................... I've lost about 13 or 14 lbs in the last 2 months :-D



It does depend on how willing your OH is to adapt though :-D

................ especially no sugar in his tea, coffee, cocoa, etc.



Good luck

I cannot find the Opening Ceremony on either of the TV channels that are the US or Canadian "host" stations ................ not even on tape delay. :-| :-| :-| :-| :-| :-|

Jonesey must be writing in invisible ink or Malcolm has posted a reply on the wrong thread! :-S

WDYTYA was good tonight Linds :-D



I wonder why the opening ceromony didint start until 10pm and mid week????

Hello Malcolm..........which bit of Jonesey's advice have I missed then? :-S :-S


OH is on the 'cusp' of being diabetic. No meds, just diet at the mo. Just another thing to add to the list I suppose. :-(



Have been out with daughter all afternoon..........I'll have a rest when she starts work again I fink........could do with it...... :-D We had a storm and it bucketed it down......she doesn't like rain on her skin - to some with autism, rain feels like acid on their skin apparently.




You can keep those underpants Gins.........I'll send you some washing powder. I wouldn't mind a look at his bible though. It certainly looked well used. I once heard something to the effect of every home had a bible in it......somewhere but most were in pristine condition :-(


We have quite a few in varying translations and conditions....... ;-)


Internet is still intermittent - am hoping the problem is solved when I have been 'migrated' :-S :-S :-S :-S

Excellent perspective Jonesey. Thanks for sharing that.

I remember Athur Negus on Antiques Roadshow pointing out that "Just because a clock belonged to your Grandmother desn't make it an antique. She might have bought it out of Woolworths ten years before she died" Fair comment.

Nite nite then !!
