Hey,

no particular reason for this, but was just chatting to 2 other Irish Girls on a different thread (irish Katt & Bonnie), and thought I would do a bit of a call out to the Irish Chicks, and see how everyone is gettin on!

I am a Dublin chickie

Hey!!!

Dublin girl here too

Hiya!

I have a feeling that all of us irish girls hide a bit, because we know just how easy it is to bump in to someone you know in Ireland!!

I t's a bit like six degrees of separation, except in Ireland it is rarely more than 2 or three degrees!!!

It's so true. The first thing I think no matter what site etc I'm on when I see Dublin is 'oh I wonder if I know them' Ha!

Ellie R · 10-26-2009, 08:47 AM

I know, and if you don't then the likelyhood is that one of your brothers or sisters were in school or college with them!

So true!!

Im a dublin girl myself, just joined today! are there only 3 of us?

CardboardCutoutCat · 10-26-2009, 10:26 AM

Seems there are! !

CelticTiger · 10-26-2009, 12:56 PM

Thats mad, you would think there'd be more Irish out of the millions of people on 3fc, considering how much we get around! well good luck to the both of you!

hiya! i'm a cork girl! its great to see i'm not the only irish person on here, it can get a bit lonely when the other ladies are talking about products and shops in the states.

so what method of weight loss are ye doing? i'm in weight watchers myself.

CardboardCutoutCat · 10-28-2009, 10:26 AM

Hiya,

Ah, i've come across a few other Irish girls here, i'd say there's defo a good 10??

I am on pretty low calorie diet with hardly any carbs, lots of veggies and lean protein - not too much fun, but I am nearly at the point now where I have to start re-introducing other foods back - ie the really hard bit!!!

CardboardCutoutCat · 10-28-2009, 11:57 AM

Wow! Well you've done amazingly so far, you clearly have great resolve so I don't think you will find it too hard

Well done

Hi Girlies.

I'm from Limerick, but living in Dubai. This is my first ever forum, scary! I've just spent 7 weeks back in Limerick and with propper "mammy" cooking I managed to put on 5kgs/11lbs. So its back to the grind stone for me. I have about 16kgs/36lbs to loose. well that my goal anyway. Not sure how easy it will be to stick to any sort of diet while I'm in Oz over christmas!
I'm trying to follow the Closer Diets GI plan. So far so good!

Its nice to meet ye all xx

Howerya - it's really good for advice, and just getting things off your chest here!
its not very Irish to be hanging around on a cheerful positive web forum, admittedly - but I'm a bit addicted to it!!!
