I've no intention of repeating it Ells but the mind works in mysterious ways.
I'm glad to hear that, Velvet.
How is your mum doing?
She's just come out a head shingles bout Yogi but she's out and about ta 
Cheapo wheelchair's made all the difference too 
Aww, shingles can be really painful. I'm glad she's feeling well enough to get out and about.
Depends how tortured you are.
I tried it once in a psychiatric unit. Wet metal knife behind a plug and then plugged it in.
Someone must have been looking after me that day.
thank goodness for that, donks
I know Kaffy - it would certainly have been a waste
But it's all between the ears in these cases and mostly invisible.
I think a child's suicide must be one of the hardest things a parent can ever have to bear. I don't think you could help feeling that you had failed them, because they weren't able to come to you and share whatever was causing them so much pain.
My mates mum is just.....gone. It's been 4 years now but she just can't accept it.
Sorry Ells, do you mean she died or walked out and never got in touch again?
Sorry Yogi I meant gone in a 'here but not' kind of way. She gets on with daily life but she's just lost without him. He was her baby.

Oh no Ells, that is so tragic. I can't bear to even imagine what she must be going through.
If only that was it Yogi....so much more has happened since then that I wonder how she gets through her days! She has amazing strength, they all do.
On a brighter note it's only 10 weeks til my holiday and I've done sod all to lose any weight since xmas so today I started back on the 500cals days and have finally persuaded my fella to join me 
He doesn't eat fruit or veg so it'll be really tough for him.
For dinner I had a huge pile of peppers, mushrooms and onions fried in frylight with a squirt of bbq sauce and lots of spices. A birdseye bbq chicken chargrill and a tortilla wrap. I have to say it was the nicest dinner I've had all week. All for only 400 cals

I hope she finds some kind of peace, and life is kinder to her in the future, Ells.
Well done Ells 
I have started the couch to 5k (C25k) programme. I've done it for two days and haven't collapsed yet!
Oh I tried that when I had the treadmill Rexi. I had to skip a few of the running parts at the very start in fear of falling off the treadmill coz my legs couldn't keep up 
Good luck with it.....people say it's a great programme!

That's what I'm on with chicken and wholemeal pasta 
Oh I have wholemeal pasta in the cupboard....might have some of that when doing it tomorrow. You doing the 2 days a week VD? Or low cal all the time?
Just watching what I eat Ells and excercising with weights and the stepper.
They say wholemeals the way to go.

I wish I had a treadmill ... although it would probably end up the same as the exercise bike ... as a clothes drier!!
Mine did Rexi 
I ended up selling it. Now I've decided I want an exercise bike and WILL use it of course

Ha! We should have swapped ... I could have had the treadmill that you sold and you could have had the exercise bike that I did!!
Haha then swapped back when we realised that we don't like the thing we have now and really want the other thing because of course we would use that one.
You pair sound like me! I had a cross trainer in my living room for about a year.... Sold it a couple of months ago as i'd only used it about twice 
Huh ... Ells and I might have wanted to buy that!!
Right ..................you've reminded me to get on my treadmill tomorrow. Must dig out my Moulin Rouge CD - it's the best for a workout!

DIBBS!!! That was the worst machine in the gym (for the whole 4 weeks I went ) but I bet it's the best at getting the job done.
Keeping along the same lines as last night....
I took the kids to play day at the local leisure center this morning... There was a spinning class going on in one of the rooms nearby and i thought it looked fun... Anyone had any experience?
Mr Woo and my son have both done spinning. I think it's quite strenuous - a good work out!
I think i'll ad that to my list of things to try once my youngest starts nursery in Sept lol
Shame I don't live nearer (NOT)

My youngest son is a bit of a gym bunny and does spin classes. They are not for the unfit faint-hearted.
I'm assuming they do a beginners course Yogi, the people going in there weren't your usual toned pert types, they looked like normal mums etc
I think he does quite advanced classes. I don't know where he gets all this fitness stuff from, it sure isn't in his genes.
Ahhh aren't little kids brilliantly amusing.... my 2 1/2yr old has just spent the last couple of minutes trying to lick juice from her elbow
Aww, I love, love, love little ones. They can brighten up your darkest day.
I was nose raped by a dog tonight. Not only was I nose raped by a dog, but it was a very slobbery dog, so it left me looking like I wet my pants too
