Changing my description, sigh

I've described myself as "a few extra pounds" from the start but I could always have stood to lose a stone (that's 14 pounds, or 6 kgs, for the rest of you) but now I've put up a new current picture and damnit who am I kidding. Weight has crept up and a bit more up this winter, another half stone has slid quietly into place, and not even I can see 20 pounds as a few. My bra does not capture everything that drops down my front so I can't go for voluptuous or curvy and I'm seen fat and I'm not that. So many words - plump, portly, chubby, well-padded, pudgy, chunky, stocky, zaftig, corpulent ... don't like any of them.

So nothing for it but a bit of fun dieting.

Yeah, with age and sedentary life style will do that to a person.wave

Just lift a stone or two and you will be ok. laugh banana
Life in Spain is treating you well. You are very very tall at least compared to me and tall people never seem fat.
I like your new hat
You do look sweet with your new hat! wink

As for the extra weight...why bother changing it on your profile?
You could always say this is how you saw yourself last time you looked in the mirror?dunno

Or...this is how your best friend described you?
Daniela you seem very happy lately and I like your attitude is there a new someone special in your life?
First thing you learn as a man, when a woman starts talking about her weight foot in mouth so my comment would be "lovely weather for the time of year" dancing laugh
Wise man Z much more considering she knows where you live.
I've misplaced a couple of stones. Hands and feet still seem to be in order though.
Sorry to disappoint you Ish..
No..no new man!
And no old one either! moping

I'm trying to be as cheerful as possible to make up for all the hardship I've been going through lately...

And I'm also trying to avoid all the drama here.

But...not many cheerful blogs...unfortunately! sigh

But...nice to see you here..smilebouquet
Red...I would have said: in order to lose weight ....
You need a partner..full stop! wink
Well yes to keep it off, but I have been on go slow for so long now I go to gym now and ogle laugh laugh as well as pump iron.grin
Ish...Red has a vivid imagination and is good at visualising.wink laugh
I'm miss Simo...a good fun blogger...sigh

All for positive thinking...wine
Biff, attack one of the rooms you haven't as yet done. There's nothing like physical labour to shed extra pounds.

It's only a temporary setback either way. During the winter we aren't out and about as much. It's only a matter of time before you are back on track.
Hey, Lafonda wave definitely sedentary lifestyle, you know you've spent too much time at the computer when the arms that hold you closest are on your desk chair sigh

About to start next brief stage of renovations and repairs, with any luck lifting boxes of patio tiles and 20kg bags of tile adhesive will have me back to a washboard tummy and bulging biceps in no time, very seductive roll eyes
Ish, that's what I told myself, tall takes up space anyway so people won't be so quick to notice I take up sideways space as well. But my clothes are getting snug and I can't afford a new wardrobe so the pressure is on to whittle myself back into comfort rolling on the floor laughing

Ta re the hat - it is the seagrass version of the black one, you know when I ordered it? for the meet in March 2016. It didn't arrive in time which is how you all got treated to the tatty black rolling on the floor laughing

cool
Z you are a model of discretion and also quite accurate, it IS lovely weather for the time of year rolling on the floor laughing

cool
What about Roly Poly?hmmm
Red it was the hottest day I think so far this year, lovely day for an outing.

I know which activity works the quickest magic for me but it's a vicious circle, you know - when I feel like a lump I haven't got the confidence for a workout partner who would make me into less of a lump doh

laugh
"So That Means I Weigh"

"15 Stone And A Half?"....................................detective
Molly, hard physical labour is back on the agenda from I think next week. And the hot weather should help, so long as I don't give in to the tempations of icecream as a cooldown uh oh

I shall also buy myself fans, and dance

cheering
Biff, there is a place spare on a two week course where I can hammer you 3 times a day if you´re interested. I can mail you the details and feehandshake
Nam, if you weigh 217 pounds, yup. About right?

I have never known why the Brits weigh in stones. In SA we were metric, so I was used to kgs, then I switched to stones and now that's become familiar and frankly in pounds it is more than I find comfortable laugh
Why don't you use Big and Beautiful instead of large?
That seems to be quite popular at the moment.
But really, I don't think anything as temporary as your weight loss requires a profile change. You will have lost it all again before you know it.
"Its Even Better"

"Not To Step On The Scale"........................detective
Bn so long as it doesn't interfere with the next phase of work, I could definitely be interested. I'll need testimonials from satisfied slenderised customers, and I'll be frank up front and say if you are ower heavy on the pricing, I can't afford you even if half of the models in Spain enthusiastically endorse you scold
3 times a day hammering by BN?

Bestill my beating (jealous) heart heart beating
Eek Molly Big and Beautiful is over 300 lbs or 21 stone, have a heart!!

Can I go for 20% Overweight With A Friendly Smile instead?

"I was 28 stone before I tried the Bn 3 times a day pounding for 2 weeks and just look at me now, doing my dream job in Torremolinos" Sandra, 28, Bognor Regis


That´s just one of many testimonials Biffthumbs up
Lou, that's entirely true, Simmo was definitely built on generous lines. There are all sorts of nice definitions for bigger men and no-one minds a man being well upholstered anyway but I think I'd get odd looks (and odder messages) if I went for something like husky.

Bekard, high-protein diet is definitely effective but eish, expensive to keep to. I lost a lot of weight some years ago and it always comes down to eating better, and eating less. But the snacks here are so yummy sigh

Fashion, pah! Wear what makes you feel good is what counts cheering
Nam, the scale and I stopped speaking when it started lying to me. Now I listen only to my clothes and when they are sounded strained, I have to eat less for a while laugh
BN, okay, I'm sold, that looks too genuine not to be true. Rush me your price list and we can haggle daydream
Molly, I'm basing that on the photos that go with Big & Beautiful and anyway I can't do the Beautiful part sigh

Curvy I believe traditionally consists of overlapping curves and so long as the biggest are in front and on top, they receive no complaints. After half a lifetime of riding horses, by far my best and most popular curve is behind me. Unless I am to walk everywhere backwards and bent gracefully forwards to display its still-effective firm contours, it counts as a bonus and not the main attraction.

sigh
Ish, I had forgotten that laugh
Biff I've got a photo that proves you are beautiful, was done with natural light and no Photoshop.
Ish, love you to bits but that pic was almost exactly 3 years ago and with us being cheek to cheek in it, nobody even glanced at me rolling on the floor laughing
I and all the others who have met you know you are beautiful and I'm sure you get a few "piropos" in Spain
I thought you could get those good diet pills in Spain. confused Also where do we go to see Molly's a**?grin
Miguel I've got a photo she only ever let us photo her backside. It's worth seeing
Ish, not on here though scold


grin
