Chips and cheese? I despair of this country. :p :lol: You're going to the pub not to drink? What's the point in that then? :shrug: :chin:

:lol: I hate being the designated driver :mad: so I WON'T be one :rofl: I feel the same as Veggie :dunno: why go to a pub if you don't drink? the :censored: pop costs as much as the beer :rofl:

I forget about people driving probably as I'm one of those odd people who don't drive. :o

:lol: he-he You'd have to walk for a :censored: long time to get anywhere around here :yikes: :rofl: errr :chin: 2hrs to FIRST PUB :faint: :cheers:

I may have to move I'd be thin there.

You have to drink in a pub. No other option.

I'm in danger. There are at least 4 pubs round here (probably 5 or 6 now I think of it) that are within running distance, let alone walking. It's just too dangerous.

Our nearest pub is four houses away, the next one is over the road and about three houses, theres 5 more within a five minute stroll......

People hate me because I often go out and not drink, I can take or leave booze, unless it's nice cocktails, or free red wine (don't ask about my eating and drinking habits this week - not good) and I don't drive!!!!!

It's the wedding today (not mine) I have my nails polished, my hair dyed (it was meant to be dark brown but it's come out very red!!!) and I am nearly ready, apart from still being in my jeans! Nearly time to frock up!!!

Get some piccies taken and post them, I'm sure you look fantastic! :D

Yes we need photos :nose: :nose: :nose: :nose:

Maybe I should walk to our nearest Brit pub here... I'd soon get thin, it's about 20 miles away and along one part of the main drag is prossie alley... I should sweat some cals off too, it's still 104 here during the day.

I've lost five pounds this week :) Hope I can keep up the good work. I've been so set on not eating crap of an evening... walked a bit, but no real exercise, between work, school and more work...

Well done Chris :cp:

Hellooooo.
Coo all you lot have talked about for the past 3 pages is food and drink and being ill! Or not, as the case may be!!
Veggie I hope you are feeling better..did you get to the weigh in??

YP., I forgot to say you look absolutely stunning in that photo!! I like the hair, too!!

I live in a large English village and yes, I have 2 pubs to choose from! Unfortunately neither of them are in walking distance for me...could get the mobility scooter out though...he he he!! :scooter: :cheers:
Gosh the sun has just fallen below the level of the fence and its really quite chilly...brrrrr. Mind you its me, the one who isn't well! I managed to pick up a stomach bug late Friday afternoon and although the need for the 2 second mile has abated..(I leave that to your vivid imaginations!) today I feel as bloated as a pregnant cow :moo: :moo: no don't ask me how I know what one of those feels like!! I haven't eaten anything today which should be good for the weightloss!!

Chris..well done on your 5 lb loss this week..awesome!!

Hope you feel better soon!

A huge lunch at my favourite Greek restaurant today (we had a voucher for a meal for £5 so it would have been a shame to waste it when what we ate would normally come out at £20 a head), then a shopping trip to burn off some calories.

All I can say is watch out skinny sister, I'm coming to get you...

She sent a request back with my mum for some size 14 Next jeans as she's not into the curvy, skin tight look that seems to prevail in Spain. My mother decided that as I'm currently wearing her old jeans it would be a good idea for me to try on the jeans to work out which ones would look best on my sister. I should add that my sister has lost some weight since the ones I'm wearing, and that although I can get away with a 14 in most things at the moment, jeans are usually beyond me and send me scurrying back to a 16. I will also add that the skinny sister tag is partly because she's always been smaller than me, but also because I swear she looks a lot smaller than a 14. We actually sent her a text to double check what size she wanted because I didn't believe my mum when she said that's what she asked for.

Anyway, I picked up 14s and 16s in as many styles as I could find - both sizes if they had both on the assumption that if the 16 looked OK on me, the 14 would be OK on her, and the 14s in the ones where there wasn't a 16 available to try.

Well, to cut a long story short, I didn't bother trying on the 16s :D And if she doesn't like the jeans we chose her (or they are indeed too big), they'll have a loving home right here ;)

I hope this works, here am I at the wedding!!!! I am really pleased here, because a lady who I haven't seen in a year, who didn't know I have been trying to lose weight, has just reeled over in shock, demanding to know how I have managed to disappear!!!

There's a group shot of me from behind throwing confetti, and for the first time, i just blend in to the group, I don't look skinny, I don't look fat, just boringly average YAY!!!!!!

Nice pic :D
