Weigh to go to Deleany. Please tell us TOB's face cracked into a smile and she said something positive to you

Peacock it's called a hard drive. I seem to spend half my days looking at network cable problems. The cable goes from the PC / hard drive into the floor box (data point if you want to get technical) many of ours seem to be misbehaving and I have to keep chasing it back from the PC to the hub and the patch panels in the server room - we are re cabling the building in December which will hopefully save a few crawls under the desk. Too technical ??????

Am off to find my anorak and geek hat

lol Teel...I agree

It is really funny but I remembered to save clothes from when I started but a bra was something that never even crossed my mind and I feel really stupid about that ...especially as I could never buy one before I could never get one that they were always too small and I was too embarrassed to go anywhere and be measured to find out exactly what size I was I always had to have them made specially by my friend so...Well I still think my boobs are much too big...I've always wanted tiny ones ... hubby doesn't like that idea at all, they are now a size 38 DD and he is already complaining ...He says they are not boobs anymore, just the bags they used to live in and they look like bee stings.
Bee stings...oh lovelly

Yes I have had the catalogues fro Bravissimo but never bought yet. The ones I really like don't come in my size - I am either 42DD or 40E. Most of the ones I can fit are still boring white. I want colour!! I am tempted to buy some soon though but they are not cheap.

I am looking forward to having less "up top" (busty substances) for summer. Nothing worse when everyone else is wearing next to nothing and I have to disguise the fact that I am wearing a -what do the Germans call it "Burstenhalter"? If so, well named.

It's awful when everything gets sweaty and you've got this huge bra - euch!

Thanks! I have bookmarked the page. I'd better measure ans see if I have lost any inches around that area. I know I have lost some from my hips because I have loose nix and trews.

I put on a pound this week. Could have been worse though after all that I ate.

Bras are the item of clothing I'm least looking forward to having to replace as I lose weight. I'll have to get new bras a couple of times before I reach my target weight, and they're so expensive (well the heavy-duty ones I end up wearing are at any rate). But it has to be done, clothes just wont hang right otherwise.

I'm looking forward to fitting into the sizes you find in places like La Senza, they're much prettier!

I know just how you feel. I hate spending over £20 for a bra. Marks do some "functional" ones but I am really looking forward to being spoilt for choice instead of "Oh, the big bertha one then".

A couple of years ago my friends treated me to a facial which included my neck so I was down to my bra. The beautician came bounding in saying she had been up the lingerie dept where the sales assistant told her that bras last 6 months if handwashed and only 3 if machne washed. After that they need replacing!

I always start off handwashing but as I don;t have a washing line and get fed up of hanging them over the shower door, I am afraid they go in the machine.

With my luck I will end up an awkward size - small bra size but still huge cup sizes. Still I live in hope....

I don't know how you're all going to react to this but here goes:

For Christmas next year my parents are paying for me to have a breast reduction. I have to lose at least another couple of stone but the Dr says that because I have lost in excess of 2 stone and they haven't shrunk at all then it would be a good idea as I am absolutely huge!! His exact words were "I think it would be a good idea as pendulous breasts are not very attractive in a young woman" (CHEEK!!)

There said it...
