Newbies
 | thanks jackiee, we all have our own stories of woe im sure, it takes a long time to get over and each in our own way. It taught me never to judge a book by its cover. I turned into a bigger drunk than i was! Im now the best grandmother in the world! (mostly sober) Could be drink could be food we all need something to get us through lifes difficult times. Ive learnt that no matter how low you feel there’s always something worth living for and that I deserve to be happy enough to enjoy that. I just want to be fit enough to enjoy what ive got left. |
 | Hi Slimchris, there’s a link under the FAQ’s tab on the bottom tool bar, give a list of places to shop in the UK. I also adjusted my meal planner to simple food stuff the make it easy to get into. Hope you haven’t to much stuff to get through before enbarking on the diet. Goodluck to you Barkingmad. |
 | hi dawn i’m with you on the eating healthy again, and hoping to lose about three stone, good luck |
 | I’ve been on a couple of days and am tuning myself to 6 snacks a day rather than 3 meals. I am struggling with the recipes as they include lots of stuff that I have never heard of and don’t know where to buy in England. I do have a fridge and a freezer and a cake tin to empty before I embark too deeply! |
| | hi oregon girl, good luck to you on your journey to lose. I hope you enjoy being on board |
| | I’m deeply moved by your post Danwrosie, you are very brave and I’m relieved photography has given you a little outlet to help cope with the tragic loss of your son. How’s your up and coming move going or have you moved already. I just sold my flat in scotland last month, after living in Italy now for 6 years thought it was about time although I did hope the stress of the sale would help shed a few pounds…. but it had the opposite affect as I comfort ate my way though it! glad it sold though as those extra pounds I put on gave me the mootivation to start the diet. |
| | photography literally changed my life! I used to be so scared to go places on my own. I started a garden design course at a local college and had to use a camera again after the death of my son. I wouldn’t take any pics cos he wouldn’t have been in them. The garden design course was me really pushing myself to do something, so i mastered that now its nothing for me to go into London all by myself be it behind a camera lol |
| | Thanks Bev…have a great day. I hope you have great fun on your photography class and I’m so pleased your being so positive. Your a great inspiration, hope your Monday morning walk turns out to be less daunting as you think. I walk with a friend and she always has her camera too, it’s great having a chat while we walk, it passes the time so quickly |
 | Hello DawnHeffley, Believe it or not, through the visitor season, I bake bread six days a week so am very used to the passtime. However, it appears that SWG flour is not available in Scotland. |
| | It is so nice to wake up, sit with my coffee and breakfast and catch up with all you “cruisers”…I am really encouraged by the losses, and feeling the thrill in so many because of the changes that are being made.Good to hear things are going well for you Jackiee. Annaleeramos, that is wonderful news about your walker, and painkillers, and going for a ride…good on you girl.Camplaffalot (Mary Ellen, I can only imagine why you have that name…haha…mine used to be Havachat) I hope all goes well for you after what you have been through…hopefully we can all encourage one another! Welcome to all the newbies…don’t worry about being confused, we all were a bit! How amazing that you two Dawns have a similar name!!! Well, I haven’t lost any today again….I think it is because I am eating much of what I normally eat…so it must come down to the excercise for me! I will begin that walk at 7am on Monday.Yuck!!! But with my camera I am sure it will be a lot of fun!!! I joined the Digital Photography School last night, hoping to learn more about technique so me and my camera can become better friends! Well, have a busy day, so must leave the ship for a bit, and drop in later.Sail on everyone, enjoy the day and I will catch up with you all later…Bev. |
