h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

yes its crazy isn't it...last time i was a 14 was before i had summer...oh crap i've been meaning to diet but it soo hard[whiney excuse ridden voice]

but even then when i was single i remember one of the lunatics i dated felt i needed to lose that wee bit more...hah... and he looking like a reject from zz top...

well i may not be a slim thing but at least my morale has increased..now i'd tell him where to go.... but i would be far more choosy now anyway he wouldn't get a look in in fact i'd

i should join the dawn french or hattie jackes appreciation society

know what you mean there, ive had weight bully boyfriends too ..i'm bigger now than i was then, n current chap couldnt give a toss as long as im happy...im a lot more confident now than when i was skinny..

same here hubby is still as interested in nookie as ever..i tease him about being a chubby chaser although i wasn't actually chubby when we met....well not chubby as i see it i was a size 14 but some girls would have fits over that...

some of these girls need to get a life and realise that most men don't mind a curvy girl.

I'm quite tall (about 5ft 9) and just went back up to18 stone to make it worse im all belly n no bum/legs! so end up having to wear something ridiculous like a 26

height is my problem...too short for my weight i'm just under 5.4" so a bit in short a**e territory.. my tummy has surrendered after having 3 kids... in fact my whole body should be condemned

My tummy surrendered after a football sized ovarian cyst put tons of weight on me

I could do more exercise though, drink more water (which im curently trying) eat more fruit etc..

ohh thats nasty.. the ovarian cyst.. read about cases like yours...like being pregnant....

glad you're recovered, and health is much more important than being a size 10... reading about that liz hurley woman who makes fun of anyone over a size 8!!!! what planet is she on...she admits to only having one meal a day.. and her standard snack is 6..count em all... 6 raisins.

i don't think life would be worth living... 66 raisins would be a snack... hell and don't forget to dip them in

raisins..ick..its not a snack unless it has carbs in it

we are on the same wavelength here

no snacks for me today got some evil vomiting/belly virus..

sorry to hear... i hate vomiting...there seems to be a bug doing the rounds here....cold symptoms tiredness and i feel queasy, but could be a bad prawn...

just drink loads to get it out of your system asap

i'm off for the night.. hope you feel better soon.. byeee

i couldnt even drink most of yesterday, couple of sips of water n i was throwing up again! feeling bit better now so hopefully it wont last long!

evening.. i was mooching around sites and came across your own titled art therapy.. funnily enough i was considering a career as an art therapist some years back..trouble was only place near to me was i think in buckinghamshire..and my 2 girls were going thru school etc i couldn't think of relocating..

but anyway sorry to hear josh sometimes feels he wants to hurt himself.. thats a terrible worry..my middle self harmed dreadfully, her arms are still quite unsightly.. but shes doing ok just got her 2.1 degree..she had a slight relapse and cut again a year back but seems ok now.. i am worried about her sudden lack of direction since getting degree, but thats common in lots of post grads.

she never had much help so don't lose heart with josh, take the help and yes even the art therapy..expressing himself thru art can open up lots of avenues for him and help them to assess him and help him in the best way

Thankfully he doesnt actually 'want' to hurt himself..he just says hes going to, and will put his hands to his throat or go n sit in the road or something..its definately an atention thing..but god knows why he knows how much hes loved! hs always been very forward and he has difficuly dealing with more mature emotions in a n 8 year olds body/brain if that makes sense? especially anger..

the hospital treated crystal with contempt..like she was seeking attention and wasting their precious time...i've always thought some of it was due to her feelings of guilt over her sexuality..you know all catholics on her dads side..she still can't tell her nan she is gay...

i think she hated her body for betraying herself..something like that..i don't know.. thats why she likes to live away from us [in bristol..crystal in bristol] she can be herself, no resrtictions from the family.

That mustve been awful for her.. being a teenagers hard enough without any added worries. You seem like a good open minded mum though n thats more than a lot of kids get..

she was always a child daring to question different things...wasn't too surprised when she told me at age 16..the year earlier she had bought herself some dungarees and i had quipped 'well you're either gay or pregnant' almost hit the nail on the head....

i know religion troubled her as knew certain quotes from the bible about homosexuality about how god detests it etc...must have made her feel bad...anyway a truly loving god would not hate someone just on account of that...there are far worse things going on all the time.

i accept her totally i hope she meets the right one... as long as she is happy....can't be worse than my son in law..now he REALLY winds us up...

Thats one of their things I disli8ke about the christian faith..their god sounds a right bastard

its like the god of the new test and old test are 2 totally different gods.... in one its kill every man woman and child in the city in the new its god loves u all...

it is very confusing....when we hear about muslim fanatics..we only have to look into the old test to see where they get their inspiration from... the religious hatred and intolerance is all there.

do you follow any religion yourself??

I'm pagan I usually say wiccan but I've been rather lapse recently so pagan it is for now.
