Thursday weigh in..... No weight loss this week, I am not surprised nor am I disapointed. I have been eating anything and everything, But what My sis and I did discover today is yes we may well be eating pretty much anything and everything (having finished liquid and mushie stage) but it is still no where near as much as what we were eating pre-banding.

My sis and I went crimbo shopping(Christmas shopping) today together which is somthing we have begun to do every year, set aside a day to go together and buy out stocking fillers wrapping paper and all the little bit's and bob's that you tend to forget about, we do go shopping together often and have days out but this is special as we have no kids with us and no partners, we go and have a BIG fried breakfast before we hit the shop's and that will see us through till lunch time then we would go to a restaurant and have lunch, only this time we went for the breakfast and neither of us could finish it at all, so even tho we don't have a fill yet we do have some restriction and today we didn't manage to have lunch as we were still full from breakfast, so it just goes to show you, I have been moaning on about being hungry all the time and eating loads but in reality I don't think I have really been eating as much as I thought.

The sales here are amazing, The 'credit crunch' is really showing, all the stores have sales, 10% off 20% off even 30% and in some stores 50%. I don't really understand whats going on, we are in this mess due to people not paying morgages and loans back as they can't afford them but on the other hand they are trying to make us take more loans and spend more money! Bank's are closing and even Woolworths... which is 99 years old, and I was so shocked to find out Woolworths is closing down. It's all a big worry, I am hoping my husbands job is ok, he works in a care home for autistic adults, I guess they will always need care no matter what state financially the country is in. Bank of England's intrest rates have gone down to 2% and V A T is now only 15%.

I thought this was funny.....was emailed to me from my sis.....



To My Bank

Dear Sirs,

In view of what seems to be happening internationally with banks at the moment, I was wondering if you could advise me. If one of my checks is returned marked "insufficient funds," how do I know whether that refers to me or to you?

Thanks,

LOL...Just a little 'credit crunch' humor
