Yes, I have to admit the truth now that you've guessed - I am, in fact a professional comedian and Sagres is just a pseudonym.
Before you ask, my stage name is Prescott - but you can call me John !!! :rofl

Well, I've just got in from watching the England game :roll: , have eaten a ham roll and then a cheese and onion roll :yikes and I wouldnt like to guess at the amount of alcohol :shrug but hey everyone needs to relax now and again - dont they?

Course they do bluemax. My theory is that the adrenalin rush experienced during yesterdays match will speed up the metabolism, therefore any excess food or alcohol consumed will of been burned off anyway :!:

not the amount i did joolz... the pub provided us with pie and peas at half time..and of course it would have been rude to turn that hospitality down, and well, plenty of lager ( how many calories in a pint of lager?) and then i had about half a dozen vodkas, and then there was takeaway pizza on offer...what a complete blow out..but now i have to be good until thursday when i can do it all over again!!!!!

:offtop i know.. but england were not good yesterday.. they will have to do better!

keep trying girlies, we wil all become losers in the end,, :rofl

I blame England's lacklustre approach to goal scoring for my eating. I overeat when I'm depressed and that was a very depressing second half.

If we play like that against a team like mexico (who were SUPERB today) we're bolloxed!

Anyhoo, back to fat. I'm joining weight watchers next week. Again. Fingers crossed!

I have the answer to all our problems.

Whilst listening to the radio last night it stated that the England team lost 10lb each in weight during their game Saturday because of the heat. and physical excercise.

So all we have to do is play with Beck's balls vigorously in the heat for 90 minutes. :rofl

Sorry - that should read play ball with Beck's vigorously in the heat for 90 minutes :lol:

i think you were right first time jackie.. :lol:

i also heard they had 70 litres of water between them too..what a great way to lose weight. I am actually doing better since i decided that while the world cup was on i didn't give a stuff about my weight and binge on beer, vodka and whatever snap the pub is offering while the england matches are on and then stick to my normal routine for the rest of the time..

Console yourselves that their weight loss was fluids only! Bleddy ref had a problem with them getting a drink of water didn't he?!

Hi peeps

Well I hope I lost something, hubby, son and I went cycling on Sunday. Yes, it was a scorcher by the time we got back, we cycled for nearly one and half hours. I was shattered when we got back.
Burnt my forehead and nose.

speak soon, keep up the good work

:offtop Got computer back :pele

Hey, hey, hey for yesterday's weigh which was utter :swear . Lost a big fat zilch. That's only 1lb lost in 3weeks. I hate this :swear dieting marlarky and am never booking another summer holiday ever again :!:

I know you guys say to throw away the scales and forget about figures but I'm obsessed with figures - especially the figures of superfit looking women. I'm a wannabe and I wannabe slim :!:

I don't know what more to do because there's no way I'm giving up my occasional treat of vino, I've cut back enough as it is. As Toyah Wilcox once said, it's a mystery, it's a mystery, I'm still searching for a clue. I'll let you know if I find one.

Glad to be back :)

Hey all! Haven't been on for ages - too busy at work. All the threes for me now (well it was at the weekend) - three weeks to holiday, three lbs to lose to make three stone lost in total!!! Wow - I am chuffed!!!

Went a bit doolally with the old Chardonnay to celebrate this fact,but now back on track - apart from the glass I am having at the moment because as I'm sure you all know since the bottle is open it might go off if I don't finish it....

Joolz - don't despair - I have had lots of times when I haven't lost for days and then suddenly it goes - not sure where to though. Chin up girl (but not too far or you won't be able to drink your vino!) :wink:

Well done Meerkat that brilliant :D

Joolz - Don't despair. If you are still dieting/ excercising then your body must be doing something. If you are not losing the pounds then I bet the shape of your body is changing, remember Muscle weighs more than fat.
I know it's hard but like you said, get rid of the scales for a few weeks and take your measurements instead - bust, waist, hips, tops of arms and tops of legs and instead of weighing yourself for a few weeks measure yourself and I bet you will see a difference.

Cheer up and don't be :(

Regards Jackie

Well done Meerkat - thats really good going!

Chin up Joolz, I lost half a stone instead of the stone I intended before my hols this weekend but I've been on a program at the gym for the last four weeks (should have been 6 but I had to fast track due to leaving it till the last minute) - didnt lose as much weight as I wanted but got measured last night and I've lost 8.5cm's in total from waist, hips and legs so I bet thats whats happening with you too.

Schucks, you guys are so nice and supportive :oops: :!: It's me, I'm never satisfied - my clothes are getting looser by the minute, folk are telling me how well I'm doing and that I look as if I've lost loads of weight - I'm just addicted to the scales, they are a ritual in my life :roll: I can even get into DD cup bra, now that's progress :rofl And I'm not boasting, I hate my more than ample bosom that was inflicted upon during my teenage years (was an E/F).

Keep up the good work buddies :kiss

I will happily take some of that ample bosom if you want to get rid of it. :rofl
