Today on Facebook an old friend from school added me. From looking at her friend list there are sooooooooooo many people from school! I finished 6th form in 2000 and a lot of people left after GCSE's in 1998 so i haven't laid eyes on many of them since then. I don't have any friends now that i went to school with but evidently other people do! AND some couples are still together now! CRAZY! Most of the girls look the same but the guys!! I have no idea who most of them are! Two have added me as friends because apparently we used to know each other. Weird. I totally don't have any memory of that. Also it may just be immature me but my photos are WAY funner than anyone else's. There's 144 pics of me in various fun (drunk) situations. Old school people have shitty pics of them and their new wife looking mildly excited in some honeymoon destination or in the peak district on hols or something. Mine involve me balancing glasses on my head, scraping kebab off my boot, dancing like a loon, covered in glo sticks and lumo paint, doing rock lunges in a club, dressed like a golfer on a bar crawl.... well you get the picture. It must be because i'm a mature student and most other people have got proper jobs and stuff. Wow i'm SO lucky. I only have one year of uni left then it'll be photos of me and the Boyf in some damp field somewhere. *sigh*

The diet and exercise is definitely working! So far I have lost an inch and a quarter from my waist (all fat) and 4 pounds. I went to the gym again yesterday with best mate. Really getting into it now. Loving the stepper machine - it's brilliant for cardio.
BM went for her first weigh-in at Slimming World yesterday and she was gutted to have only lost 1 pound! I don't understand how people lose weight on that program. It seems silly to be able to eat all the carbs that you like on one day and meat on another. Maybe I don't understand it properly. Also it seems like you can have a ridiculous amount of "syns" (bad treats). BM is eating more healthy meals but still eats treats like she used to and still doesn't fill her syns allowance for a week. Stupid!! She tells me the woman leading the group is overweight too AND she's been on the diet for 12 years!! Ridiculous!!

First thing i'm going to buy when I'm happy with my figure is a bikini! Can't wait.
