Blog Candy and an Award!

I'm trying to catch up with my blogging tonight as I have another busy day again tomorrow so first of all I'd like to point you in the direction of Dawny P's blog. Dawny will be celebrating a "special" birthday on Monday.....bless her.....know exactly how you must feel sweetie!!!, fight it all the way I say! She is offering up some yummy candy and all you have to do is leave a comment and link it to your blog....simple as that.

I recently received an award from Debi........

"These blogs invest and believe in PROXIMITY - nearness in space, time and relationships! These blogs are exceedingly charming. These kind bloggers aim to find and be friends. They are not interested in prizes or self-aggrandizement. Our hope is that when the ribbons of these prizes are cut, even more friendships are propagated. Please give more attention to these writers! Deliver this award to eight bloggers, who must choose eight more and include this cleverly-written text into the body of their award."

Had trouble with passing this on to eight people as there are actually nine I would like to give it to!! and they are: Alex, Becky, Cindy, Denise, Emily, Erin, Lauren, Lisa and Melissa - my fellow DT members of Stamp Something who always inspire me every week. Talking of Stamp Something, will be back tomorrow with the new challenge...see you then!

My Surprise For Tony!!

As promised, I'm back to let you in on my surprise for Tony tomorrow! Don't know where to start with this but maybe a little personal history first. When I married Tony in 1996 I was a UK size 14. I've always had to watch my weight and never been naturally thin but was never vastly overweight either. In March 1997 I fell pregnant with Lewis and that's when the trouble started.....the weight piled on and after he was born as well because I wasn't eating properly and just grabbing food out of the fridge when I had a spare five minutes.....oh, the joys of being a new Mum! Then I got pregnant again with Sam and even though I didn't gain much more weight during pregnancy, I made up for it afterwards! Am I boring you yet! It took me ten years and many failed diets to finally get serious about losing weight so I started my diet in January this year and this is the evidence....... please do not show the first photo to small children or animals as it may scare them !!!!!...

ONLY JOKING
