artist Posted October 13, 2005 Report Share Posted October 13, 2005 Looking in the mirror, I thought I ought to slim,So I bought myself a tracksuit and drove down to the gym. Well, playing squash could cost a packet with shoes, T-shirt, shorts and raquet - A daily dip would keep me slim - such a pity I can't swim.I'm seasick on the rowing machine, and pumping irion is just not my scene.I'd try aerobics to get fit, but when I bend my trousers split.I couldn't even touch my toes - I think I'll just buy larger clothes.Written by Edna Guy from Dorset.

andsome Posted October 13, 2005 Report Share Posted October 13, 2005 Most of my clothes have been shrinking lately. They don't make them like they used to. I might even have to resort to cutting down on my grub and EVEN taking exercise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thos Posted October 13, 2005 Report Share Posted October 13, 2005 I have, I am afraid, a sweet tooth, and though I don't take sugar in coffee or tea, I like to finish a meal with something sweet. On Fridays, because we do our shopping in Sainsbury's, I treat myself to a jam doughnut. Sainsbury's doughnuts are to die for. Yummee!Anyway, a couple of months ago, my regular blood tests showed that the sugar levels were rather high and the doctor warned of possible problems (diabetes) so I cut out the after-meal cakes, chocolate and even the beloved weekly doughnut. Although I didn't do it to lose weight, I have noticed that my waist band has slackened off and my weight has dropped from 12st 7lbs to 12st 2lbs over about 2 months.I just hope the blood sugar levels have also responded.This rubbish must be of enormous interest to you. :blush: :rolleyes: :wacko: Thos.

doug Posted October 13, 2005 Report Share Posted October 13, 2005 Both my wife and a close friend recon that M & S etc are economising on the amount of fabric they use for given sizes of clothes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
