Emigration Diet
I have lost just under a stone in Weight since deciding to move to Adelaide.
I guess it's with the stress of such huge decision plus running around getting the house ready for Sale.

As my weight goes up and down a lot, I was wondering did any body put on weight or lose weight when they moved to Oz.

PS
Davy has signed his contract and should be working in Adelaide by the end of February and I will follow soon as I sort out the house.
Feeling really scared now.

Lots of fellow "Fat fighters" there.

Hi Kerrieee, well I lost a stone just getting stressed out sorting everything out for the move!! Didn't even need too either - am thin enough!! Might be a good thing before Xmas though!

kerrieee

Thanks Welshie and BuzzY-- bee

Must admit I was quite happy when I got into an size 10 party dress for my Hubby Xmas Party.

For the first time in ages I can eat what I want and not put on the pounds, but still sticking by my motto that little pickers wear bigger knickers.
Old but true.
On serious side, My mum is worried sick about my weight loss, not a great help when she is just coming to terms with us leaving

Oh mum's always worry, then are the first to tell you you look fat when you put on a bit!!!

Very True Welshie
Another thing I could not get my head around was last Saturday, my parent's got together for a drink with my Mother in law and Father In law.
I have been married for 17 years and they never ever speak or get together (they live a few streets away from each other.)
No wonder the pounds are dropping off.
Ps my Dad is from Wales, lived in glynneath(sorry if the spelling is wrong)

Welshie

thats scary!! Is your moving to Oz suddenly bringing them closer together!?!

Hey part Welsh is better than none at all WHich part of Wales is that?

kerrieee

Its in South Wales, my Dad moved to Newcastle 38 years when he met my Mam,
Still have Family all over Wales.
I have visited Caldicot the most as my Uncle Ivor still lives there

Welshie

Oooooo South Wales...that's where I am..in Cardiff anyway... Have friends in caldicot...haven't been to Glynneath though?....can't even think where it is!!! I really must get out more!!

kerrieee

Ah... Cardiff, the only city I can remember that you can get a train to and within a 5 minute walk youll pass 3 greggs bakers
Im from Barry by the way, that rubbish excuse for a seaside resort

Welshie

Mmmm the Greggs steak pies....total bliss!!

Barry.... Just Kidding!

I remember it quite fondly actually....my granny used to take me to the beach there when I was a nipper....used to have a laugh on the funfair too!! didn't like swimming with the terds though!

Do you know some actually holiday there and think its the mutts nuts!! (mainly the English though!

Luke I Amyofath

Butlins has long since gone and yes, you take your chance swimming there. If it can be flushed down a toilet, youll see it on the rocks when the tides out. I went to canada for 19 years, I think theyve now stopped pumping crap into the water.

Who mentioned peters pies ? Think theyre made in caerphilly or close. The real welsh pies have to be clarks, where the filling is as black as coal youd think there was something wrong with it but they are great

Hi
I have put weight on since moving to Australia, but I figure that is because my life is not as stressful here.

kerrieee

Good to know life is less stressful In Australia, makes all the effort right now a little more bearable.
