Oh lawdy lawdy Arsenal are playing Reggos' Liverpool tonight.....

If they don't win there will be some very heavy gloating going on by Reggo to pay me back for my gloating when Liverpool got blown away.
AND I'm out so can't watch it either!!

What a game. My blog has gone over to Google. No by your leave do you mind. Just we've done it so get over it. Everything had to be reset.
Serves me right I guess I have been very lax with my blog of late.
Well I didn't lose any weight this week but on the plus side England are playing tonight so I intend to watch it as I am at home.
Watch this space then.
Oh by the way Reg go and look at St. Chuckles Day on SA boards. Very amusing and lighthearted.

Ey up it's me agen then.
Went for my first weigh in last night......
I lost two pounds and I sunk a few during the week. Yippe yeah.
My friend also lost two pounds - can't be bad.

On the writing front I am looking for an agent and this time I am sticking to the English market. I sent the MS off yesterday and it will be at least six weeks before I hear from them.
So it's watch this space.

Ey up me hearties. How you all adoin then?
Whilst I've got five minutes I thought I would blog a bit.
My friends talked me into going to weight watchers to give them a bit of an incentive to lose some weight. I agreed thinking it would be a laugh and I could do with losing a pound or two. My scales have been inactive for at least a year. My colleagues always dispute my weight with comments like "your scales need aligning" etc. I weighed in the lightest of them all at 11 stone! However I am 5ft 6 inches and my target weight is 10stone 6lbs.
Because i'm big boned (apparently) I weigh more than people expect.I have been mistaken for 9 and a half stone recently! lol
Once all the weigh ins had been done you can browse the w/w shop area and buy treats etc.then comes the meeting ( a boosting chat and many rounds of applause for anyone that has lost that odd pound or two.
I lost five just walking through the door! but if I lose a bit of weight it will be worth the money I tell myself.However we do get value for money with a neat little book filled with ideas for meals and how many points each item of food is worth. e.g. 75 grams of fresh coconut is 10 and a half points.whilst a cup of coffee with whitener is only 1 point.A jam doughnut is 5 and a half points.(bummer).
It works on a points system (For my weight and height I am allowed 18 points) and I was surprised how many veggies etc are no points at all. So if you love veggies you can stuff with treats.
However I left the best until last..............
A glass of red wine 175grms (who counts fill it up I say) is only 2 points. So if I budget my points carefully I can still drink 525 grms each evening which is basically a glass and a half.
As Reg would say .... BAH
However I will keep you updated on my weight loss. I may be told to give up the fattening red wine though. :-( ......... we will see.
I'm going to do a bit more on Frankie Baby later. Working slowly to get it right.
