Hope you manage to get some trousers for OH Marion,enjoy your break.
Well ladies how are the rest of you today?Raring to go I hope .Onto day 3,finished on 43 checks yesterday.
OUr internet server will be changing over some time today ,hence why I got in early,will email you all with new addy once up and running...so if I disappear for a couple of days you'll know why ,though apparently the change over shouldn't cause too much disruption--hmm dunno if I believe that.

Hello and Morning all

Sun is out here but it also looks like it might cloud over and its quite windy too ooohhh just looked up its raining!!!

Marion fab to see you, hope you find Markies and trousers for Harvey men eh?? laugh.gif hope weather gets a bit warmer for you too 2thumbs.gif

Di well done on the sts my scales weighed me much and such as class ones too and i am missing them but determined they will stay in loft 2thumbs.gif

Ona nice to see you hope work is good today 2thumbs.gif

Skippy,Audrey,Nicky,Mb,Soots and Claire have a good day ladies and as Di says our champagne has been chilling way too long so lets get going and get to targetland its where we all want to be actually thinking about that poor Ona must be kinda lonely too shes been at target on her own way too long so shall we join her???? 2thumbs.gif

now after that wee pep talk confession time last night i wanted a slice of toast have got affa fine loaf with seeds on it in the freezer so i resisted for the whole of Mistresses and still wanted it as Shameless came on so i gave in had two slices with wee bit lurpak and a wee bit grated cheese y_whistle.gif lipsmacking.gif

would usually try to cut back now but i think thats maybe where i go wrong as when i do that i always end up feeling hungrey and end up eating even more so have decided to forget about it and stick to checks for today as normal

so far had raspberry oats so simple with edb milk and edb banana so 5 checks out of 45 2thumbs.gif

Have a great day girls 2thumbs.gif
Skippy
ahhhh pay day today and all my "extra" needs to go on paying towards holiday that i should have been saving for since last august!!!!!

ahhh so no debenhams 12 hour bonanaza for me today!!

however ladies i went on markies website - they have a sale as well and bought 2 shirts and 2 trousers ( one needs a soon to be summer work wardrobe - doesnt one!!!!) shucks.gif shucks.gif zipped.gif

and if husband says anything that is exactly what he will be told!!!!!!!!

2nd funeral today, however not a "connection" so maybe not as upsetting as yesterday!!

ps going to a medium on mums anniversary that Nicky's friend went to!!!!

so i reckon i should get 3 of them comming thru for the price of 1 xxxxxxxxxxxx
DawnC
Skippy you and me posting at same time butterfly.gif

thanks for the reminder about M and S sale and i didn't know about Debenhams so will have a wee lookie on internet 2thumbs.gif

hope today goes well and as you say when there isn't a connection it can make things a bit easier hug.gif
dianedry
Skippy sorry had a wee snigger about your medium comment.
Dawn think you are right ,trying to claw back doesn't always help ,just make sure you stay on track today and it won't have made too much of an impact on your week.

Hi everyone on a windy wednesday. I am doing fine, but haven't been writing down this week. Maybe I should write my eating here, although it will be borng for everyone else - I need something to keep me on track.

ok, so today -
morning :2 slices nimble toast with marmite (4), orange
Lunch: ricecakes, laughing cow light and tomatoes (10), apple, mullerlight (edb), cups of black tea,
Supper will be baked tattie with tuna, bit of mayo and mixed salad (15) - it's a biggish tattie, but I will weigh. Room for snack - French Fries crisps and curly wurly probably (8). Wow - that's only 37!!!

Will save some checks towards the weekend. lipsmacking.gif

I thought your blog entry was so true Di.

Skippy - what a week. Hope the meeting with the medium is good - I have never been , but often wondered.

Marion - sound like you are managing to enjoy Cyprus!! If you are lucky at the bingo the drinks are on you at the mext meet remember!

Dawn you are right about Ona - she must be lonely being the only one at target - let's say we will be joining her soon!!!!!
northernstar
Afternoon!

I had a wee looky at both the Debenhams and Markies sites but there ain't anything that I like at the mo...good job as I can't really afford to be spending anyway!! y_whistle.gif

Marion...good to see you here from sunny Cyprus!

A lot of positivity around here just now with speak of not wanting our ona to be our lonely target peep....great stuff! I have a long long way to go and have no idea what my target will be as yet....one day.....but I sure am taking the scenic route...think it's time for me to look at some old photos again of the thin me to keep me going!! rolleyes.gif

I am having a "put jobs off" day in work today...but hopefully I'll be more motivated tomorrow...I'm sure it's just from working the last two days until after 10pm but at least I am not back in the library now until next Tuesday! (I've just been handed my payslip...pay day tomorrow but I know it won't go far!!)

Right...enough of my ramblings....I nearly forgot to say Claire is unable to post just now and is up for the 5lb challenge for the 11th 2thumbs.gif

Mystic Bella
Hi Soots-you are right, it doesn't seem to get any easier. Hope you manage to get back on your wagon to get going again.

Just noticed our Dawn's new thread to challenge herself. Between that and some of the other things on here, I am feeling really positive at the moment. Managed to come in on 43 checks today so am happy with that. 3 days done now, and going to try for another one tomorrow.

5 weeks till I go to Poland, and I really want to have lost some pounds by then - lots of walking planned!

I think I need to come and post more often to keep myself focused and away from the bag of easter treats in the cupboard! Goodness I might even go back to my blog unsure.gif
mariont
Bloody foreign computers sooo sloooow!! had a quick read through couldna find Mn S did find debs and nae bad but hubby wouldna part wi the euros pinch.gif I got a nice pair o walking sandals, Gilian would have been proud wandered through the ancient site and saw some lovely mosaics roughly walked 10k y_woot.gif .

DawnC
Morning all

Will post at night properly as now running a bit late butterfly.gif


have a good day everyone 2thumbs.gif
Skippy
morning all!

OKAY then i am setting up the official bring back pat's blog! - very amusing and we all enjoyed reading it!

AND then Nicky and Ona - i bought a book i think it was called something about eating a frog

it is a motivational book and it says rather than put the problem tasks at the bottom of the pile DO THE WORST JOB first !!!!

and i spend 10 minutes at the end of the day, updating my things to do list and the worst job is always the top of my pad!!!!

I have had my fingers burnt with trying to put off dealing with people issues so now i deal with everything head one in my own " nutty" xxx way!!!

I also read another 1 called who moved my cheese and again it is all about having to move with the changes or the cheese disappears - if anyone wants a read of them give me a shout and i will try and find them........

Di i am glad that you laughed at my 3 for 1 offer - you got the joke which means you could be as nutty as me!!!

Soots - big hugs xxxx

where is our social butterfly this morning?

getting nails and legs waxed tonight and will make appointment for fresh lashes!! ( lassies at work say im high maintenance ????)

big hugs to our bingo loving cyprus visiting mad woman!
dianedry
Good morning ladies.
Am back online and so far so good.
Have mailed a couple of you my new addy as didn't keep a note of everyone's,but once the group mails start to come through will be able to contact you all again.
Had a great afternoon yesterday.We met up for a few drinks with my pal and his wife who are over from Milwaukee,they go home Friday morning.It was really good to see them again and within a few minutes we were chatting away like we did all those years ago when we were all young and carefree...oh the times we used to have.Only thing is fell offf wagon as had a chipper supper for tea as couldn't be bothered making something when I got home,but promise to be back on track today.
Marion glad you got yourself some "sensible" shoes nothing worse than sair feet,hope weather a bit better today.
Ona had to laugh at this statement-made me thinkl you were having a stock check on us laugh.gif "Looking forward to meeting 5lbs less of everyone again biggrin.gif Think we are almost ready for stock check now",and you are our shining example of pep working at its best.
Skippy ,don't buy much from Markies but the things I do have I got in my usual size so sure yours will be fine.Hope you get on ok with the spooky wifie ,have never been to one myself but mum has.
Booty thanks for fluttering by ,those clothes can wait -you have a wedding to pay for.
MB glad you are feeling more positive and I agree you should post more,and would love to see you start up your blog again.You will have a good few pounds off before Poland if you keep this up.
Nicky hope work isn't stressing you out too much,think Skippy's idea of leaving the "better things" to the end are a good idea then you can go home on a more positive note.
Soots hope you manage to get back on pep soon,the longer you leave it the harder it is.
Claire hope you manage to post again real soon.
Audrey hope you are back pepping too,missing you.
Have a good Thursday all,going to get hair done soon.
Di
Mystic Bella
I am terrible at putting things off!!!! Anything from ironing to horrible works tasks.... I have my "things to do today" list which I add to, and then I pick what I want to do, and if I can delegate I can. I am going to try today to be good and get rid of some boring tasks. That's my challenge!

Hope you enjoy Coral Bay Marion - that's the last place I visited in Cyprus and I really enjoyed it. Nice and relaxing and good cocktails!

I am definitely feeling the better of being back on the plan - will update my food later.
northernstar
Morning everybody!

Well, it's grand to see you all so positive and going for it with pep! 2thumbs.gif

I on the other hand am not being a very good peper but I have other "personal" stuff which I don't really want to go into on here (not to do with himself...everything is going well there infact he has been a fantastic support wub.gif )... I have a half day today and an appointment at St Nich to help me start sorting the problem out...so I don't think I'll be going to class tonight. Hopefully with going away this weekend to Edinburgh, I might come back a bitty more relaxed and get back into pep again and I will go to class next week...I have a pass so I've already paid anyway!

One of my colleagues has taken in some of her collection of angel and medicine cards etc for me to have a look at as I'm really keen to buy a set of angel cards (or maybe more")...but wanted to find out more before deciding which kind to go for....anyone used them before??

Sorry for bring a really positive sounding thread down shucks.gif

Have a good Thursday folks xxxx
Skippy
nicky hope all goes well and if you want to "chat" via txt or pm you know i am here for you!!!!!

i haven't tried the cards but they sound good, and remember as long as emotional support is there we can face anything!!!!!!!

your not bringing it down!

not like me bearing my soul last week but it helps to put things into perspective xxxxxx


Nicky your a lovely person inside and out and i am glad fate brought us together!!

see if we were a heap of skinny chicks we wouldnt have met!!!!! 2thumbs.gif
northernstar
Thank you Skippy xxxx

I loved the last comment......."see if we were a heap of skinny chicks we wouldnt have met!!!!! 2thumbs.gif "

So true!!! I'm a great believer in fate and that events in life do happen for a reason....just two words for now.....BANKS ARRRGGGHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!! (feel a bitty better now!!)

Right off to the cooncil offices to see a helpful woman!

Catch up laters (it's lovely outside now and a lot milder than it was earlier) xxxx

Mystic Bella
I am glad we are not skinny chicks as I would have missed out on meeting some lovely people.

My day has gone very wrong. I haven't cried at work since my friend died more than a year ago but I had to do something today that made me cry and it was awful. I hate HR today and feel like jumping into a VAT of wine.
DawnC
I too am very glad we are not skinny chicks ( YET ) would have missed all our " chat " not to mention our few get togethers we have had and also the champagne which i know we will all be drinking one day 2thumbs.gif

Nicky hope the wifie at the cooncil was helpful and no more talk about bringing us down as that is so not the case and our job here is to bring you back up again so as Skippy said we are here if you need us by pm, email or text hug.gif

Mb sorry to hear you got upset today hope you are feeling better again hug.gif

Di great to have you back and glad to hear you had a good catch up with old friends 2thumbs.gif

Skippy I liked your three for one offer too very apt with the credit crunch hope you get on okay with the spooky wifie its not my kind of thing but my pal has been to lots of them 2thumbs.gif

Marion another fine day sightseeing, cocktails and maybe some bingo?? 2thumbs.gif

Oh deary me, what is happening ladies, Nicky I think Carol's comment is very appropriate...hope the weekend away helps lift the spirits. Pat hope today is a better day for you as well.
I know what can cheer you up today...............its pissing rain with thunder smileysallgemein140fc9.gif very un holiday like, got some sun yesterday Coral bay 10min walk RIGHT! 20 minutes then a bus..but lovely quent place wish we were there as more to see, never mind got to moan about something. and its only a bus ride away. reading in the 'sun' lounge today so far looks like it might clear up. AS for coctails they cost a blooming fortune a quontreu cost about 8euros. How boring was I last night bed by 10 -8pm to you lot!

I do like my holidays.................


mariont
Morning Pat Di, Ona and Carol 2thumbs.gif
Mystic Bella
I am better today thank goodness! It was one of those horrible issues involving someone else where I had to do something I wasn't happy with, but I was forced into. I hate upsetting people!!! Never mind, the situation changed by the end of the day after legal advice and it ended up with a better outcome. I have a lovely boss! And we have now got 2 bottles of cava in the fridge for a celebration at the end of today to make up for all the stress yesterday.

I did not fall into a vat of wine- had a couple of drinks but not much food yesterday, so within checks. Feel so much better today, but have a lot to do after not getting much done yesterday!

Marion- there is no way I would attemp walking to Coral Bay - I always take the bus!! Good exercise though! Prices are a bit steep in Cyprus - shame, otherwise I would be back.

Hope we are all good today - Nicky hope you got on fine at the council.
Mystic Bella
Mrs Marion is on the go early today!! Must be the early nights - oh, it will be 11 o'clock with you though I suppose. Have a good day - hope you don't have rain!

Morning ladies
Nicky hope you managed to get things sorted out and are feeling less stressed this morning,you are not bringing us down at all and after all why else are we here if it isn't to help cheer each other up when things in life are tough?
MB not good that something at work made you cry,hope things are better today for you.
Marion hope it doesn't thunder again today-sounds like you won't be going back to this same resort.
Ona have a good day,that's promising news about your uncle.
Dawn hope you have a good day too and no blips today.
Skippy was it last night you were going to see spiritualist?
Booty enjoy your shopping trip.
Almost pep perfect yesterday but had a packet of crisps at dancing show last night.
I am so proud of Erin as she hasn't been feeling very well for a couple of days-nothing specific but lethargic and high temps, but still managed to dance her wee socks off-I was even trying to convince her not to go if she didn't feel up to it,but she didn't want to let anyone down-bless her .
Well that's all my news,almost the weekend so hope you are all feeling a bit better.
Di
mariont
Hi Pat you canna be busy today y_whistle.gif Di your daughter must be a true professional the show must go on, bless!
The hotel and a'thing here fine, just would be better if there was some of that yellow stuff that you can see up in the sky more often, never mind. Its nae even a resort!! A hotel in a 'quiet' area...make that very quiet. Its 2 hrs later here until sunday. Looked at your forecast so I am better off here. Paid for an hr on here and am going to do some shopping in debs as well. It is more or less a euro to the pound but they try to make it look better!!!!
The rain was bucketing down and leaking through the 'sun' room the lightning was sheet and there might be more today pinch.gif

Morning ladies smile.gif

Some news..........I no longer work in the PO sad.gif ......let me explain........got another surprise on Mother's Day........we ARE going on 30th anniversary cruise after all y_shock.gif OH and the "bairns" arranged it biggrin.gif but the "high heid yins" at Co-op wouldn't "honour" my hols request sad.gif finished my shift yesterday and that was it, was told it wasn't worth me carrying on being trained up, and as I was still "training" they wouldn't hold me to work out 4 weeks notice y_shock.gif Back to job searching book.gif

WI last night wisna good either, gained 1/2lb y_cry.gif I know it's only 1/2lb, but it's still on rather than off rolleyes.gif

IT'S FRIDAY AND I'M ON HOLS FROM LUNCHTIME!!!!!!!! (feeling like c**p...himself is full of the cold and is kindly sharing it out!!!)

Marion...we have had some of the yellow stuff in the sky this week though...although with a wee bit of rain inbetween...oh and it's a bitty windy and there is snow in the hills....even Bennachie has a covering apparently! Enjoy the rest of your holiday xx

MB...glad to hear you are having a better day today and enjoy the cava later! lipsmacking.gif I had some of that the other week in work for our director's birthday and I was a wee bitty tipsy with all the bubbles!!! shucks.gif

Dawn...good luck for tomorrow!

Ona...hope your Uncle keeps improving, it is amazing how they can come on especially when they are so determined which he sounds hug.gif

Skippy...where are you the day?? Are you on hols??

Well the cooncil wifey was very helpful and I have another appointment near the end of April with them to start the ball rolling and at least now, it'll stop me getting any hassle from a bank now!! Feeling a lot lighter now about the whole saga...thank you folks, you are all great! hug.gif

We are really looking forward to getting away for a night tomorrow...I don't know how my mum will get on checking up on and feeding Jasper though....Millie will be fine though (he's actually scared of her!!)

Himself just called as he received a letter from Table Table (Mill of Mundurno) apologising and giving us a £60 voucher to use!

Have a great Friday ladies and if I have missed anyone, my apologies xxxx

Mystic Bella
Nicky - enjoy your hols!! Glad to hear you got sorted, especially before you go away, and that's good news about your voucher!

Shame about the PO Audrey, but how fantastic getting a cruise! Hope you get smoething else sorted out on the job front soon.

Hi Ladies.....big hug.gif to you all......

I've went to class.....2lbs on!.... shucks.gif

Class was good and it never fails to leave me all motivated!
I've filled up yet another card so I got a new one...so I'm looking at that as fresh start
Our talk was a 'tounge in cheek' version of the 7 deadly sins....wrath being one of them.
Here is a peice of useless but interesting bit of info for you all.
When your angry and stressed you produce cortisol.
...

"Cortisol stimulates appetite and promotes fat/carbohydrate conversion into glucose - the aim being to boost your energy reserves for that urgent 'fight or flight' response"!
"Cortisol trains your body to store fat more effectively, particularly in your abdominal area."

Well...I've been angry all week...... y_rant.gif hence the 2lbs on........ wink.gif

I really want to be back at target this year.....so its time to revisit why I'm doing this and where I go wrong and try and do better!

Marion...hope yuor having a fab time....still jealous!!!
MB...Well done on not falling into a vat of wine.....wish I had your resistance!!
Audrey....Sorry about the PO but Cruise back on is fab news! Great for your motitivation eh?
Nicky....have a fab week off! Rest and relax.
Di ....glad your internet all sorted and your back!
Dawn...Good luck for tomorrow.
Skippy....cant wait to hear about the spiritualist..did anyone come thru?
Claire...hope your doing fine...
Ona..hope your having a good Friday......



Hope I havnt missed anyone...... off to have free soup now.....
Have a super Friday all....the weekend is almost here........... 2thumbs.gif

MB...have you started on the Cava yet or are you saving it for later in the afternoon?? y_whistle.gif
Skippy

Mystic Bella
I have bought a bottle of vodka for later!! (Can't resist a bargain) What a stressful time I have been having! Cava will come out about 4pm I think....and one of my girls has brought in a bottle of the Bison vodka and cartons of apple juice - yay!!!

I have only had 15 checks today so will indulge.

Soots am sure that 2lbs will be off again pretty soon.
Claire good to see you back with us and in your own home too.
Audrey hope you find another job soon,not very fair you didn't get hols,but there will be something better for you out there.
Ona when is your mum's birthday?Sounds like my kind of weekend with no plans.
Dawn hope you stuck to just the one vodka and fingers crossed for WI .
Erin still not very well though was at school and came home really chuffed with herself -she won the Easter bonnet competition.She didn't go to dancing show tonight but hopefully she will be well enough for tomorrows' show,she was burning up earlier again,though seems ok in between times -very strange,will see how she goes and if no improvement over weekend take her to docs next week.
I have weakened again today and had too much checks but tomorrow is another day.
Night night take care
Di
