TQ - I am sorry about this - I hate people who do to me what I am about to do to you.... did you hear that warning on the TV the other day about fruit teas? Apparently they have got a lot of acid in them which is bad for your teeth.

Everything is bad for us nowadays! :dizzy:

OH GOD is anything good for you???? I had toothache yesterday and I couldn't imagine what I'd had to cause it until I got up and refilled my glass for the third time with m&s reduced sugar orange drink :p

To avoid all possible health risks I am going to committment myself to living on water, fresh air & love.

No toxins / acids / hidden sugar / alcohol in that lot. :dizzy:

HAHAHAHA:lol: if only it were possible

:lol: Well said Carol:lol:

I don't know why I've got these headaches, I drink about 1 can of diet coke a day, about 2 litres of water, 3 cups of tea and 1 cup of coffee - is that too much caffeine? I don't know:?: I drink about 1 glass of red wine a week sometimes non at all.

I think I've been pretty stressed recently though, sprog #1 is having trouble at school and sprog #2 is a little minx - I feel like I can't keep on top of the housework etc at the moment too - to be honest I think I'm just wanting a bit of sunshine - and we don't go on holiday for 20 weeks today - boo hoo

Fluoride and other impurities in the water....!! :(
Lethal solar radiation and carcinogenic impurities in the fresh air....!!!:( :(
I'll settle for the love!!! :) :o

Unless, of course, he actually does buy me one of those pedometer thingies for Valentines day - in which case I don't know what I will do!!! ;) :lol:

Help even the water can be dangerous! I am going back on the wine:lol:

Jano 02-12-2002 09:54 AM

Anyone know where we might get FRESH air from????? :(

Sarah Ann 02-12-2002 10:29 AM

Well - not here and thats a fact! I all smells very pure and lovely, but we live in an area with lots of coal mines .... and lots and lots of coal fueled power stations. I didn't realise until earlier today that the pretty fluffy clouds I can see on the horizon are generated by Drax Power Station - one of the biggest in Europe!

Lovely!

Love it is then.....!

flumper 02-12-2002 10:59 AM

:lol: if its living on love ill lose this weight in no time at all:p

BigPhatBooty 02-12-2002 11:10 AM

Please note - being in love and getting married got me to my current state :lol:

Jano 02-12-2002 11:21 AM

nice one BPB;)

Smiling Sal 02-13-2002 04:04 AM

Love what’s that. Ray is probably the only person in the world who doesn’t know it is Valentines Day tomorrow. Christmas sneaks up on him too.

No fresh air here either – too close to the BP & other petrochemical sites – lovely clouds though.

Carol I just remembered all the power stations over there in Grangemouth and remembered my friends there and got all nostaligic for a minute. I'm over it now though ;)

Is anyone getting any unpleasant side affects from dieting?

I am a month in to this diet and I have noticed a change in my emotions since the awful hunger worse off after the first couple of weeks. I started to feel tired ALL the time and totally exhausted by 7pm, usually going to bed at 9-9.30 instead of my old 11pm. I also very often feel irrationally irritable (so I'm sorry if I have bitten anyone's head off).

I am also finding it harder to concentrate for any length of time - my mind seems to wander, even if I am very interested in what I am doing, so everything seems to take twice as long as it used to.

Sarah - Did your body sort itself out ? I'm going through some very similar feelings at the moment. I have not been able to keep my eyes open. I have been in bed before 10 every night - apart from one & I could lie in the morning after that. Even at the weekends I am in bed early - so much for the party animal I usually am.

I have no power of concentration & no interest in anything and am as irratable as anything. I am going through some big changes at work. We are reorganising & no one knows really what is going to happen to our jobs. But we will not know anything for a few weeks yet & at the moment I can honestly say I am not worrying about it until we have some more details. But prehaps my sub concious is snapping in .

I am so lethargic, about everything. I am even hiding on the computer insted fo playing / chatting to my boys. Think this is the wrong week for everything to be like this as Ray is backshift & I don't see him from Sunday evening until Friday night. We're like ships in the night . Really means I have no one to bounce off about how I am feeling.

I really want to improve my health if someone asked what my priorities are for this year. It would be in the top three, along with being with my boys and sorting out our money. But if it's making me feel like this I need to learn to cope with it - cause I am not giving up.

So why have I not been able to stick to plan for the last couple of days. I did great today until I came home form work and have munched constantly since. Why do we do that ? I had to force myself out for a walk but when I did I really enjoyed it I am due to do some aerobics this evening, but don't think this bod is up to it. But again if I forced myself would I enjoy it once I got started.

What I don't understand is why am I feeling so tired & not interested in anything. I have a lot going on in my life - which I like, but this week I have no inclination to do anything. I would love to blame TOM, but it's not due just yet. I just wanted to know if anyone else is feeling like this. Is it just me ? Is it a dieting / exercising thing? Is it my age ? Is it hassles at work / home? I wish I had the answers.

Now I've written all that I'm just going to post it without reading it over first. Think it sums up how i feel about things at teh moment & what is going on with me. If I read it I will no doubt change it & modify it so you don't know how cranky I am. Sorry I just had to think it all out for myself to try & understand what is going on.

Yours confusedly
Carol
