  1. And get more active! I ache all over... GRRR! HATE the fibro
    when it's like this... But I DO want to get the sewing room
    tidied so I can start the next projects, and that will keep
    me away from thoughts of food!

    I shall think of fabric! I'm expecting some in the post real
    soon... The low calorie, high fibre diet! This fabric will
    be for my new SMALLER summer clothes!

    Also looking forward to a lovely bunch of Vogue patterns,
    ordered with half price coupons! 🙂

    Oh, and I put on a T-shirt an skirt yesterday... The skirt
    is fine - broomstick style with elastic waist, but the size
    18 T-shirt is hanging off me! I only bought it last year,
    I'm sure! Looks like I need a new set of T's. Oooh! An NSV I
    wasn't expecting! 😄

    You know, I shall be quite sad when I no longer fit into
    Evan's* T's and stuff: they are a reasonable price and very
    good quality, stay looking smart for years, and I dunno how
    I can afford to replace a dozen T's all at once! I don't
    make T's: boring, and cheaper to buy.

  3. I know what you're going through Kate, I have FMS too. I
    also have severe arthritis and a ruptured lumbar disk that
    they wouldn't do anything about, that's what I meant by
    enough medical problems in my other post. I'm diabetic too.

    I so wish I could join the exercise challenges, but it's
    just beyond me. I think I'm doing well for someone with just
    activities of daily activity and a small amount of walking
    to have lost so well.

  4. All together - Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhh, can't fit in the LARGE T-
    shirts! (G)

    Well, that is one somewhat costly consequence of losing
    weight but worth it.

    Congrats

    You're doing very well, with all those other challenges!

    I cleared the sewing room floor and hooverd madly this
    afternoon... Them walked the mile up to school to collect
    James, and walked back, in bright cold sunshine with spring
    blossom all about. Lovely! Blew the cobwebs away and i feel
    a bit less stiff and grumpy! AND the sewing room looks
    better! Soon I'll be in there quilting again, then i have
    some trousers to sew, and a few things to make for 20th
    april for customer fittings... And my own new stuff! Should
    be enough to keep me out of trouble for a while!

    is only T's!! You get to shop at a normals shop.

  7. Kate, I hope you feel better.

    Suggestion for the T's-have your son wash them in hot then
    run them through the dryer. They may not have colors that
    are quite fresh enough, but if he does it a few times they
    might be the right size ;-)

    Hehehehehehehehehehehehehehe!!

    Ooer! I can just imagine a 9 YO boy in a Hot Pink T with
    pretty flowers and beads all over it! Maybe 30 years ago,
    but not today! h'mm... Nah, these T's have all been washed
    and tumbled quite a lot, and being poly/cotton knit, have
    not pilled, shrunk, faded, or even needed ironing in 2-3
    years, so I don't think they'll change now!

    James HAD purloined his dad's Bisley T (DH shot small bore
    for Durham University many years ago), and likes his shirts
    baggy, but these would fit like tents!

    I shall get organized and take a pile in to my WW meeting:
    there are bound to be some girls who are bigger than me,
    and would like a few free garments to tide them over as
    they go down in size. Anything not wanted can go to the
    charity shop.

    I must go tidy the living room and hoover the floor: new
    bridal customer coming at 1 pm!

  9. That's a great idea! Taking them to a meeting and see who
    wants them on their way down...
