You and your fancy plumbing, always beating me!!  lol.  Pretty soon I'll have to start buying clothes.  Now into stuff I haven't worn for 20 years (the ra-ra skirt doesn't suit me anymore, though).  I'm glad I kept the clothes to wear again, but once something is too big it goes to the charity shop.  I expect at least 2 weeks notice of any exam so I can leave the country!!  Trying to put full length picture on 'my oh' later today.  You're doing great!

I've gone through a wardrobe shake-up too. There is no better feeling than throwing big clothes away, gives a real buzz. I've got all my old clothes out the loft, but realised the reason they were in good enough condition to put away in the first place, was because they weren't worn much due to ill fitting or looking ridiculous first time round!!
Can't wait to see your full length shots, with your new slim trim waistline
BTW how did your marvellous weekly diet plan go.

Some of the clothes I put away made me shudder when I looked at them again.  lol.  I've just bought PJs from Asda (cold all the time) and they fit!  M&S next.  Going to a wedding in October, it will be a new experience to walk into a shop on the High Street for a suit instead of High and Mighty.  Another 7 pounds or so and M&S will fit off the peg.    There appears to be something wrong with the OH site as I'm unable to load the latest photo onto MY OH, but I'll keep trying.  The diet plan is going well, I think I'll just move it around a bit every week and change the veggies as new ones become available.  I'm having fun making soups from leftovers as the fancy takes me.  Pretty soon you may have the confidence to post another picture.  Really impressed with the pic of you and the boys!

YAY, new album with new photo on MY OH.  Wish I knew why it wouldn't load before.  Have a great week/month/year!!

By the way, how do we get photographs into this reply section?

 My husband has to shop at High and Mighty (tall section) and oh my goodness soooooo expensive, Asda must seem like its giving them away!!! I've managed to buy a couple of things from Asda too, bring it on is all I can say.  Marks's will be fab, make sure you keep us updated.

I've found with the pictures, especially on a discussion board, its usually the size that stuffs it up but it doesn't even tell you that.  I save piccies as a much smaller file, and then copy and paste - works for me, you just have to be sure you are pasting the actual picture and not a link to the picture, saving them to desktop first and doing it from there with the file closed is the way I found most reliable.

Your picture is fabulous, you must feel ont op of the world. XXX
