I want to be a bohemian!!!!!

OMG We Will Rock You was fantastic!!!!! I loved every minute of it !!!! The cast was amazing, below is a cast photo i found through the power of google, i don't think its 100% the same as who was on last night, cos the girl in the pink n green corset (Meat Loaf) was a black girl last night. And Ant Mcpartlin wasn't in it!!! (haha its a pic from the opning when loads of Celebs went to visit.

Kevin Kennedy was fantastic, wasn't in it enough really!!!! The whole cast was amazing and its really good how they have updated the script to get more recent Popular culture / New items in!!!

If you haven't been to see it you need to get tickets and go, i was amazed by the number of songs the managed to get in and how they all worked and fitted round the story line!!! i totally wanna be a bohemien!!!!!


I did have a little cry, even though its so funny, the last song before the interval is No body but you (only the young die young) and before it starts they name a few famous people who died young, then they say Freddie and start singing. well as soon as she said Freddie i welled up!!!! I'm a soft lump. I think it might be becuase he is the 1st famous person i activly remember dying, or the 1st one to stick in my head.

My cousin (its about 4th cousin but for easy my cousin) Becki was obsessed with Queen and she's a couple of years younger than me so bearing in mind Freddied died in November 1991 when i was Ten so Becki would have been 7/8 you can see that even at a young age we were already heavily infulenced by our parents music sorry i digress. on the day freddie died |becky was distraught (think Bob leaving take that, if there had been a help line she'd have been 1st in the que) and her sister Jess who was about 4/5 at the time (maybe younger) went runing tound the house shouting the Queen was dead (as in Lizzie) becky was so upset!!! and that has always stuck in my mind. RIP Freddie You are missed xxxxxx


Our Hotel was fantastic, it was worth every Penny, the Bed , was sooooooooooo comfy, and decent pillows!!!


The Bathroom was fantastic as well, i know its a bit sad taking pics of stuff like this but well i had to!!!! giant bath and double size shower cubical i got my moneys worth i had 2 showers!!!!

And its a good job no-one got midnight munchies cos look at the in room bar tariff!!!!


The View out of the window, eve though we were pratically on top of picadilly station and the Mancunian way it was silent, no noise. so if you need a hotel in Manchester i would recomend the McDonald on London Road, 2 big thumbs up!!!! Ps if you go make sure you have a shower!!!!

And a Token Picture of me!!!!
Diet wise not the best weekends, we had a hot pork baguette with chips in a Weatherspoons, it came with stuffing and apple sauce, but my chips were cold so only had a few and the stuffing was that rank mass produced dry catering stuffing that isn't worth the effort to chew so that got scraped off!!! but i did have some mayo to helo with the taste of the chips!!!

then we had some wine (a lot of wine!) a big bottle of jacques each, then on the way home we called in Burger king, i got a cheese burger and a diet coke and my mum had a cheese burger and a coffee, we'd only just come out of BK and she dropped the coffee Ops (i wouldnt mind but it had cost £8 for 2 cheese burgers and 2 drinks!) we went back to the hotels and i made brews while my mum ate her burger, by the time i'd had a wee and brew'd up my mum was fast asleep!!! so i had one bite of my burger and then had to throw up a lot!!!! haha gross i know, i had had a lot to drink but i felt ok untill i had the burger. so i binned that and only had 3 sips of my D'coke!!! so what a waste of bloddy money and calories!!!!

then this morning we had weatherspoons traditional breakfast, they had no toast so saved some calories there. Then we went to More reasons to shop at Morrisons, and had fish n chips, but we skipped the bread and butter, and i only had a little bit of the batter and left loads of chips.

But saying i had fish n chips i've still been eating crap i've had a chocolate mousse and 2 cornbeef butties. crazy!!!!!

Therefore i am dreading WI tomorrow!!!! xxxxx

Happy 28th Birthday to me

Its my birthday tomorrow, not sure if i'll be about to blog so thought i'd do a quicky now! But not sure what to write.

Another 12 months has passed and i'm still a chunk but as i have said a million times before (think i might be related to del boy i've said this so many times!) this time next year i'll be a millionaire .... oh no i will be thinner!!!! ideally by now i'd have liked to be in the 17s but we can't always have what we want. i'm just glad i'm 22lbs lighter than my heaviest recorded weight!

My gran got be 4 charms for my bracelet, which are lovelt and my mum got be 3. my bracelet is npw almost full!!! while i love this i did want this to be for my weightloss so i am contemplating buying a second bracelet to separate them out, what do you think?

i got my card and present from work today (birthday club, my work isn't so generous to honour birthdays!) i got a lovely card and a £14 New Look Voucher so that will be coming to Manchester with me on Saturday, but i might save it till i'm a bit thinner and put it towards some jeans in a smaller size?!

i also got a cheque for £50 from my other Gran and Grandad, so done quite well, not expecting anything off my mates as everyone is skint and we have this hen do in a couple of weeks time but a card or 2 may be nice not seen any of them for a couple of weeks properly.

I don't know

i thin k i may be in for another TOTM as i feel grotty and angry and irritable, i thought it was just tireness from working all day yesterday but i can't shake the feeling today.


i need to organise something for my b'day but i feel so not arsed about it, my b'day is always a let down, not had a good birthday for years. my birthday is too close to the bank holiday in may, and there are loads of peoples b'days around the same time.

i've said i want to go for a meal and have a night out but would prefer them to be on 2 seperate nights. one of my friends has suggested panama-hatties in manchester i've emailed my friends but not had a reply from any of them yet. so we will see. but i am loathed to organise something but cause people always cancel on me, i don't know if its just cos its me but every year we see to do more and more elaberate thibgs for peoples b'day then my b'day comes round and nada last year we went for a curry!!!! whit woo!!!

so we will see.


i went to see dancing on ice last thursday just trying to upload the pics to facebook!!!

it was really good but my mum had a bad reactionj to the smoke machines they use and had forgotten her inhalor we had to leave just as the 2nd half started so we didn't get to see the full show whihc i think we were all gutted about but the main thing is that she's feeling better.

it has really shaken me up. i phoned my dad in the interval to ask him to bring her an inhalor when he picked us up then when we came out i asked a |MEN yellow coat if they had any medics as she really frightened me. and i couldn't get hold of my dad he's not put the phone down so i kept getting voice mail and his mobbie was switched off, in the end i phoned my friends house who lives on my street and asked her dad to go to my house to get my dad to phone me, he must have thought i was a loon but i was so panicked i didn't know what else to do!!!

i keep having nightmares since!!! we're going to see we will rock u in may and i'm scared that the same thing might happen! we are planning to stay over i hope its just what the medic at the MEN said about the smoke over the ice causes a chemical reaction that can really affect some people!!!!

diet wise its been a good week, todays been the only bad day and its not really a bad bad day!!!

i really wan tto have lost 2.5lbs this week to get my 21lbs lost and a new charm for my bracelet. i bought it today. i know its a bit premature but i thought if i do get it i'll have to waitit til at least thursday to buy one!!! and true to my geeky nature i bought one called Twilight!!!!!! but it is lovely Black glass with white piping, i'll post a pic once i can officially add it to my bracelt my mums looking after it at the moment!!!! :D

1st day back at work

after 3 weeks off!!!! it was werid going back, somethings never change and somethings were better. But i am shattered and would like to say who ever numbered the streets of glasgow needs shooting!!! i had so many HEC calls wanting info on stuff in glasgow and they are all 1 1 xxx but some bright spark numbered half a street 1 1 xx 1/1 xx 1-1 xx!!! luckily half the hecs gave me MSNs but fingers crossed they all work out !!! haha sorry u haven't a clue what i'm on about

I work in the back office of a call centre but from now on, on a wednesday i will be working til 8pm which means i get to cover the phone lines from 5.30pm!!! lucky me!!! hehe we get internal calls and customer calls and now calls from the door to door sales agents who i must say have all been lovely, but to make sure they are signing up the correct people the ring us to check some info on the limited internet access we have!!!

but i am so tired now and i've only worked today this week!!! haha i'm off tomorrow and in friday and saturday!!! not worked a friday properly for nearlt 2 years. did work a couple of half day fridays when i nottingham but that was maily travelling so didn't count!!!

BUT tomorrow should be a good say, we've booked on a powerplate but think we're gonna cancel as we're off to see dancing on ice tomorrow night. and decided today we'd go down a bit earlier to have a look round and have some tea out! i'm looking forward to dancing on ice but scared of how high up we'll be sitting and need to find my camera!!!!!

The hen do of the year is becoming more complex.

one of my friends had decided we were gonna have a theme for travelling and its turned into chavsville! she had decided on velour Trackys, printed t-shirts sparkly trainers , grillz and shutter shades, which will all be funny if everyone joins in, but now half the people are pulling there faces and not happy to pay £30. i've stumped over the money, but don't want all that stuff if i doin't have too. plus we have to buy the tracky seperate. i got the tracky pants on monday from sainsburys but now i've kinda been told by the bride (whos not meant to know the theme) that she's gonna speak to the girl who's organising it and say t-shirts only, but i know that the shuttershades have already been bought!!!! well we will see, but now i can't find the recipt for these bloody velour trackys. i'll have to have a proper look for it tomorrow or at weekend, but knowing my look i'll rtn them and the theme will be back on!

also on the 1st night we're having a hollywood theme night all balck and white outfits, excpet i've also broke the rules and bought a black white and grey dress tis officially animal print, just spotted another dress on asda website that i love a one shoulder number!!! obviously wouldn't be allowed on the hen do as not black and white!!!! i hope i get away with my dress cos i love it!!!

Just looked at the image of my dress if i look half as nice as that model i'll be a happy bunny!!! thats if they let me play out that night!!! hehe but just to be on the safe side i'm only taking colourful stuff for the other days!!! hehe

still no idea what the weather will be like or what stuff we'll be doing!!!!!

life flys by

I can't believe i've been off work for 2 weeks already!!!

my mum and dad are back tonight and i need to clean the house, i have kind of tidied up but i need to do the little bits really, but i have no motivation. they cat has also taken up residence on my mums clean coat and is now so fluff covered think it will have to be binned!!!

i've had a massive sort out my friend took me to the tip and i got rid of 4 massive bags, i've also got 2 or three bags for the charity shop, i've decided to get rid of all my video's and tapes. i have a video recorder but its not been plugged in for years and we don't own a tape player!

I am also in love with Twilight, the books and the film!!!! i bought the film the other night and i've seen it about 4 times!!!

My fave Quote from the film is:

"And So the lion fell in love with the lamb."

"What a stupid lamb."

"What a sick masochistic lion."-Edward Cullen, Bella Swan


And although some of the film irratated me and some of the charatures are "wrong!" i loved James, he was almost perfect, and played by the lovely Cam Gigandet,who also played Volchok in the OC. yum yum yum!!!!!!


So i am eagally awaiting Twlight - New Moon being released which should be Nov 09!!!! i didn't like the book that much but i need another fix of Edward!!!!!!!!


I have also signed up to a new Challenge, called "Drop - a - Johnny" run by the lovely I82Much!!!! 4 teams i think and i am in Team Ichabod, must admit i had to google it but its Mr Depps character in Sleepy Hollow, not a film that i have seen as i'm a wimp but found this image and think its really cool!!!

SO good luck to all my team mates!!!

the plan is simple the 1st team to lose the weight of my Depp (11st 4lbs) are declared the group that had johnny but dropped him!!!! i loves it!!! SIMPLES!!!!! :D

feeling cheered and motivated

well although i can't really see a change from the beginning to those horrible pictures i posted at least one of you can see a change!!!! so thank you for that boost! i measured as well and there is no change from last month but i am only measureing bust, waist and hips so it might have gone from somewhere else!!!!!, but it was with a different tape meausre!!! creature of habit that i am i will look for my tape measure and have another go! not sure it'll make any difference but i have to see just for my own peace of mind!!

was going to got for a walk to Harthead pike today but i ended up on the 5+ board and facebook, then i decided to wait for the washer to finish!!! ahhh the master at finding a distraction, but i did have a good blitz of my room!!!!

it naturally looks like a bomb has dropped i have way too much stuff, i seem to own more bras than Rigby and pellers warehouse!!! i only wear one at once so god knows why i own so many!!! and it not like anyone ever sees them!!! haha up to now i have 2 bags of clothes for the charity shop and 3 big bags of rubbish, i really need to get rid of em before my mum n dad get home but not sure where or how! may have to ask a mate if they will take me to the tip!!!!

i have been meaning to tidy it for ages but just couldn't face it, but my friend is coming to sleep on saturday night so it gave me a good motivational boost!!! well i strated last wed but only half heartdly and it got worse and worse and worse!!!! but its seems to be coming together i've found 100 upon 100s of odd socks i've chucked them all out onto the landing and am going to have a mad sorting session tomorrow!!! but now the clean and the dirty piles have all merged into one, i should re-wash it all but really can't be bothered. part of me thinks chuck it all out but i'm a hoarder!!!

my plan for tomorrow is:

- sort out everything thats on the landing
-sort clean and dirty back into appropriate plies
-pair socks and then all the odd ones bin! i have 2 bags of odd socks from my last sort out and if they don't become a pair now they never will!!!
-sort out bras i do not need 100 bras, i have about 8 sports bra's, sports bras me hahaha what a laugh, i did go to the gym but that ship has long saled and i don't really have enough boobage to warrent a sports bra playing samba de amigo on the wii!!!!

the it comes to the hard part sorting shoes and handbags!!! again i have enough to stock every TK Maxx in the country 100 times over heel and flats trainers, sandles u name it i own it (except crocs i do have a limit! :D)

and i'm gonna fit a walk in as well, i felt bad i didn't gop today but the moving of furnature and cleaning will have been almost as good!!! plus i turned down a night out so think of all the alcohol calories i have saved!!!

its getting late but i feel half an hour on samba coming on!!! plus i can't face the wii fit it keeps shouting at me for my lack of attendence!!!

another month another 6lbs lost!


Earlier on was feeling a bit miffed as felt like march was a rubbish month, but when i was updating my side things i noticed that i have actually lost 6lbs this month! not bad going for a crap month!!!!

took the obligartory pictures and really miserable about them this month. may need to find some more flattering clothes and re-take em!!!

also my hairs a mess!!! i like to have it down on pics to see how long its got between pics!!! (sad) and its been up in a clip all day so thats my excuse for the state of it!!!


i lost 2lbs this week was amazing as went out friday and sunday and was hammered both nights!!!

have done quite a bit of walking, i want to do more but this weather is horrible its cold but clammy and looks like its constantly gonna rain!!!

i decided to go to ALDI before as i called into Oldham but didn't really need or want anything, i ended up spending nearly £22 i did get quite a bit but i think i was buying for buying sake!!!

i got 2 packs of wraps, a loaf, some part bake rolls, some oaties (fitness!) some stawberry shoe laces, a choc bunny (dam that phill vickery) some veg, leaks, peppers, chillis, lettace tomms, WTHam, still lemonade, clementines! and think that was it!!!

OMG its not really much is it!!!

Not Blogger For Ages!!!

I have been slacking with SW/ Blogging / Tidying up

have just been feeling so low, not a clue why. think just life in general.

but i have to get back into it. i went out last satirday to a wild outfits night, was dreading it as most of the people going were lads i went to school with and TBH not sure if i still want to hang about with them, though that part of my life ended 10+ years ago! but as my friend is engaged to one of em and he's still mates with the others it looks like they will be a regular feature of my future! But i had a fab night!!! picks are on my facebook. BUT this is me in my wild outfit! not sure it was wide enough as when we went out afterwards i didn't get one odd look!!! haha and yes my hair was crimpt!!!

I actually had a really good night, we went to my friends house 1st then into a club that i usually hate but i think cos there was a few of us and they were al on their best behaviour it was good!!!

I was suprised to STS this week at Wi and i know it was bloody lucky!!! can't rest on my laurels this week but as feeling grotty i appear to be having another TOTM!!! again already, would love to know what was going on inside this body at times!!!!

Got a bit of time off work at the mo and i really feel like i need it, had a calibration / career plan meeting on tuesday and ended up crying, mainly cos the calls that have been calibrated (listen into) were shite!!! it was my last saturday in work and i had a sore throat didn't know if i was coming or going and was on a general enquired line not just opening reads. my manager said i sounded stressed, i said in my defence i was ill and the system wouldn't do what i wanted it to do. i only listened to one of the 3 taped calls cos i was in tears. i hate working saturdays i hate call centre cover and i know its part of my job but i'm just no good at it! i said i needed more one to one live call training as i panic when i have a real customer on the other end of the phone. They seem to think that because i do complex accounts in my normal job i should be able to do phone cover thats deemed as a bit easier, but i find it so hard to know where to look when ihave a person talking at me, we're not meant to use hold time and its all very well saying hell the cons you'll call em back but when i don't actually know what they want its very hard! As for career plan i've told my manager i don't want to be a manager but i'd like to go into training but not really at our compnay as i don't rate them. she said i should try and if i get a job with them revolutionise it!!!! i did go for a job with them but didn't even get an interview so when a job came up the other week i didn't even try for it! i think one of the main reasons i don't wanna work on our training team is that since we have moved to the new building and the trainingteam has changed i have not heard one good word about any of them, they get slagged off to high heaven! it bad enough that i have moved teams and i'm not on the Geek Squad (half my team does reports etc so everyone calls them geeks!) so i'm off til15th April and appaerntly i have to go back a new woman. But i'm on day 2 of my days off and i feel lousy!!!

started with a sore stomach on the way home, had a dodgy belly all day yesterday and discovered TOTM argh! today i have overy pain! and my eczeme is playing up!!! i am falling apart!

Yesterday i went to see marley and me, which depressed me to no end (not good they way i feel!)

today i had decided to tidy my room, well start it but i felt crap. so as the weather brighten up i decided to get the bus to Uppermill, well just as i got to the bus stop i missed one bus and the heavens opened i was soaks, thanks god i'd decided to wear my waterproof coat! by the time we got there its had brighten up, but the toe path was too soggy to walk along so i only took a few picks then walked up the high street as far as saddleworth school then back again and got the bus back before school chucking out time!

have had a nice day, i also made some chicken and veg soup which was yummy!

and i'm going to the cinema again tomorrow to see Lesian Vampire Killers!!! i'm going with an open mind and hoping for comedy and no other expectations!!!!


And finally to spur myself on i have invested in a charm Bracelet, one charm per 7lbs!!! so i got the bracelt locking charm and 2 7lb'ers! a silver one called everlasting (its showing as a mans one on the website!) and a glass one can't remeber what thats called but it could be peaceful but i will let you know! Need to lose 4lbs to get another one. i have decided when i get my 10% (28lbs lost) i will get a "bling" one (HPJ Website) maybe sparkle or shine and for my next one i'll get a glass bead maybe creativity.

when i look at it it does motivate me a bit so lets hope that continues!!! xxxx

Back in the Game!!!


I lost 5lbs!! on Monday night, no idea how, but it's off and i'm determined its staying off!!!!!

so that makes it 18lbs lost in 9weeks!!!!! And i got my 1st stone award!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I was really chuffed as i was convinced that 1lb was there to stay for ever and ever!!!!
I also got slimmer of the week, for the 1st time!!!! that made me feel better i really didn't think i was gonna get it as i maintained last week but helen let me have it!!! i got a magnet and a bag of food, includding 2 tinnes of baby carrots, a tin of kidney beans, a cous cous thing, and a couple of hifi/ alpen bar things!
Reveiw!!!
Bmi has changed from 45.2 to 42.3

Percentage weight loss to date is 6.43%

i'm trying to put things into perspective and that almost 3point drop in Bmi and 6% loss

Just looked at this Website its a link to Bristol NHS website. i googled benefits of losing 5% of body weight and it was the only one that had 5% loss, so there are lots of benefits

what i also noticed was an obesity chart and i am grade 3 Obese!!! (= BMI40+) so a mini goal is to become grade 2 obese!!!!!

It makes for interesting reading really, but not gonna get too hung up on it all just yet. i am doing this for me and nobody else!!!
i want to be healthy, i want to be fit, i want to be able to enjoy my life!!!!

i want my chin not to stick to my neck when i have my head down typing i actually want a neck!!!!

I thought i'd look for another picture to represent what i've lost now and keeping with the Animals i found this dog!!! i have lost a whole dog!!!! Not a very big dog admitidly but a whole dog none the less!!!!

I'm gonna take some new pics and re-measure tomorrow as its another mini/maxi goal acheived i was gonna do it tonight but in my Pjs now and can't be mythered getting changed again!
I think i may also be on target for my last 2 mini goal
MG3 21lbs by 23rd March i didn't think that would be possible but 3lbs in 2 weeks is acheivable me thinks?
MG4 28lbs by 13th April ( i think?!) that would be 10lbs in 12 weeks. that should be do-able?! well that monday is bank holiday so not sure of there will be a WI so may push it back tothe week after but we will see nearer the time

i have nothing to say

well i really don't thats why not blogged. I feel like i should have updated this but what can i say


this week (last monday) i had a maintain. felt really naffed off. have tried to get back on track but fely picky and having a mini TOTM not due yet but seem to be having a mini one homefully its not the calm before the storm. Not had a mega mega mega TOTM for months and am dreading and expecting a horrible one. not feeling all hormonal yet and no paranioa (well no more than normal!)


i've been reading the WW board and a couple of people have been putting there weight loss in real terms. one girl has lost 20lbs and thats the weight of both her Cats, someone else uses images of

fish. So i decided to Google 13lbs. got a lot of images of babies, fish, lambs, but i hate all those things, not a massive fan of chickens either but here is goliath a 13lb rooster/ cockeral! i have been given many suggestions such as a bowling ball or a small dog but the didn't look that big, where as this bad boy looks pretty big to me!!! and i couldn't imagine carrying him around with me all day!!!

I am hoping for a loss of at least 1lb tomorrow to get this bloody 1st stone off. i am hoping i'm back in a losing frame of mind and i hope that it continues after this week.

Laure~vee, candy and sophie want me to go to Amsterdam in October with them. so i am hoping to have a really good loss by then and surprise them all!!!! i've also been volunteered to organise it with lauren as the oldest!!!! it scares me that i'm 7 years older than Soph and she has a baby and a life and i don't. not that i want a baby hehe she can keep him!!!! but looking forward to my 3 holidays!!!

had a good day . but will lt lead to disaster?!

i met up with a friend from school today, we went to the cinema to see he's just not that into you!!! boy were there some hotties in that film. it was actually really good. i expected it to be awful. especially with such a large cast of famous people!

we had then planned to go bowling then see another film but when we went to the bowling alley at 2.30pm but the next avalible lane was at 10pm! safe to say we didn't wait around! we went to the harvester and had a couple of drinks before going back to the cinema to see new in town!!! This won't be everyones cup of tea but i loved it. it had an indepent film feel along with all the cheesy romcomness about it!!! and Harry Conick Jr totally always needs to have a gruffty beard Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr Prrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM!!! haha

the to Chiquetios!! so naughty i know but me and hels only see each other once in a blue moon so hopefully it won't have been so detramental!!! we had a wicked cocktail looked like withces brew!!! haha


i'm still feeling a bit sorry for myself re no confidence but have decided to ignore the feelings, cos if i listen to them i will use up the worlds resources of kleenex and there is a credit crunch on!!!

on monday i need to lose that one sodding lb to get my 1st stone!!! i bloody hope i get it this week!!!

as its now a new month well all 1hour 16mins into a new month i took pictures and measured

i'm please to report another inch loss

i'm now 42.5-46-51!!!! its going in the right direction!
i've added pictures and measurements to the side bar.
