Hi Linus

I hope to pop in and out most days while I am at work. I miss the Uk so much sometimes, although we have a great life in Ireland living in the middle of nowhere with trees and fields all around. its nice to be able to talk about SW and have people knowwhat your talking about, there is only WW here or unislim ( I haven't a clue on that one). I was diagnosed with depression in Febuary and getting slim again is the one way that I can feel as if I am taking control of my life back. Phil is really supportive and is helping all he can and at least with this board I don't have to feel alone. I ma looking forward to meeting loads of new friends on here

Val

I agree the oven chips are really good. IMy friend from SW emailed me to say the new leqader is giving up so I don't think I will go back now. Anyway I have the books I need.
I know that!

Deep breaths veggie, it won't be as bad as you think.

You can't be slimmer of the week every week, you have to give someone else a chance every now and then, keeps it a bit more interesting for them.

I put on 3lb last week but was pleased with myself for going. It has given me the boost to try to get it off this week - lol. It was actually not as bad as I thought. I thought I would have put on 5 - lol.

Hi Val,
Sounds as if you're living wher I do. I live in France and there is a lot of open space here as well. I, too, dream of getting back into my leather trousers. Not far to go now and all thanks to SW. Keep it up -it's worth it!

Morning all

Well its Friday and for once the boss is in a meeting and I can log on here and catch up on the gossip. I am feeling a little sorry for myself today, I was at the dentist yesterday and had 3 roots removed, my mouth is so sore I cant eat or drink much which is not good. No coffee or hot food for me today in fact not a lot of anything.

Phil and I have just booked a trip back to the UK for the end of May, as we are off to a wedding so we decided to see the familys as well so will be there a week. We have also decided to go to Daytona on October for the bikeOctfeast and on to Vegas for our anniversary and Phils b'day (we married in Vegas on Phils birthday in 2001). So I must concentrate on getting the rest of this weight gone so I can shop till I drop in Vegas.

Oh well I just wanted to say Hi and wish everyone a happy weekend

Val
