and the scales have liked me….I lost 4lb this week and I am so pleased! I have tracked, weighed and pointed everything so I’ve been exceptionally good and do you know what, it’s obviously working so I need to keep it up. I’ve been planning my meals for the week ahead and have had quite a bit of fruit and veg. It’s a good thing fruit is free to eat on Propoints now or i’d look like a melon/grapes/satsuma/banana!
I’m really enjoying my new meeting, the leader Debbie is really nice and I feel like I could talk to her about any worries I had so that’s really good. I sent her an email at the weekend saying how uncomfortable I was with being weighed practically in front of everyone (new members standing directly behind me so they could see the scales!!) and she sent me a lovely email back and agreed to change the layout of the room so that it was more private for us all. Tonight when we got to the meeting, it was all laid out differently and there was space for you to get weighed in private and have a chat. I know we are all there to lose weight but some of us have more than others to lose!
So week two:2011 done: total loss 6lb, in my third week I’m hoping to do lots more walking, drinking water and hopefully sign up at the gym!
Hope you’ve all had a good weigh-in and here’s to week three:2011!

Quilting fun…
I am so excited about my quilting adventures…I’ve really enjoyed the whole process of making my Nostalgia quilt (nearly finished!) so i’ve been planning my next one to use all my lovely new fabrics. It is so easy to get addicted to buying fabric. I love them all and I want them all. I just wish the prices here in the UK were cheaper like those in the US. We also don’t seem to get the same designer fabrics in stock as quick as those in America. The fabric ranges available over there are just gorgeous.
Anyway, I came across the Quilting Gallery a while back and loved it. On the site, there are loads of swaps to get involved in with literally hundres of swappers from around the world taking part. I thought “Why not” and sent in my details. This month is the Mug Rug Swap. I need to make 2 Mug Rugs to send to a secret swapper who may live in the UK or if i’m lucky enough, abroad or even the US. I’d love to make some bloggy friends over there. The swap is secret so I can’t tell you who I got but I will be showing you my progress as I make them. I’m really hoping I get sent a good swap, I havent been very successful in receiving swaps just lately!
Do you take part in any swaps? What kind of things have you swapped? I’d love to hear from you
