well its that close now we can smell it,co appointed,sold the house(which we were going to do anyway),lost loads of weight for the medicals,and from here it should be plain sailing.

but...

its easier said than done losing big time when selling cars and possesions that you have worked years for for nothing.then having to go out and buy them again in oz.

looking at the house prices and the exchange rate,it's very tempting to throw in the towel and just put up with things here..

i know all the way through you have wobbles,but is this a wobble that some of you have experienced..the last one you have to get through..

anyone else feeling the same,or felt the same..

thanks,ast

Not got that far yet but you will be fine - course you will

You've come this far - just grab it by the balls and enjoy

Take your family and make a good life for them - life is what you make it babe

As for possessions - thats all they are - material things that dont really matter - they make life comfortable but its your happiness and health that matters

Go and enjoy it honey

Same here, they're only material things, not important, blow-up mattresses etc will do for a while, it's the move that's important

Right thats it what bl**dy diet did you go on ??? Wasn't it only last week you were asking for tips to lose weight????
I've got an inch sittin gon my hips that i know for sure shouldn't be there at all, I want it off now.

Oh and me I'm wobbiling through the whole process, but we'll get there, ppl will naturally hate me as they do here, the neighbours will ahve been pre warned about me and always have soemthing better to do than chat and I'll leave hubby and head back for the UK with 3 kids where the weather is just bonza lol

I was wondering the same thing.
Maybe it's the salmonella diet he's been on.
Eat some pink chicken and watch the pounds roll off

Celebrate your curves babe.
I lost a couple of stone and although I am happy when it comes to shopping I got more male attention when I was bigger. Curvy = sexy.

It's the feeling that the skin on my gut is getting bigger when I run after the kids, it's like it could hit the floor at any moment.

Love my kids but oh my god If me and hubby even split up that'll be it for me, i'd never find anyone else, the only thing I used to have going for me was my body, nice boobs that didn't hit the floor or give me black eyes but definately got me noticed, a nice bum - well must of been it kept gettign grabbed when I was out, a flat tummy wow I miss that so much, now it feel like someone's lobbed a gooey lump of play doh on my gut. my arse goes out sideways when I sit down an unflattering amount, and dn't even get me started on my boobs.
An stretchmarks are a whole other story.

Got no brains, no looks and sod all money.

Now there's an advert for a dating site if ever I saw one lol

Oh My God girl! When we get to Melbourne I am gonna take you out for some serious self esteem building ( and also drinking!).
All of us who have had kids have jelly bellies and boobs in a different place than they were
We're still gorgeous though - these teens with their perfect bodies don't have a patch on us older girls with our sense of humour (we need it) and the type of sexiness that comes with age

right just printed that off so I have a copy of it, that when when you see me and say OMG no no I don't know you I can say HA HA HA got it in writing we're doing a girls night out.

LOL @ Jelly Bellies and OMG I had a mental image of one of littlens puzzles where you can move parts of the body around i.e boobs are on my feet (well hey might aswell be lol)

I only wear glasses for reading but can you get the we're still gorgeous glasses for a reasonable price ???
My sense of humour has warped since I met OH then it became seriously sarcy -post kids lolll
I find most people don't gt the sense of humour and as there's nothing else good that's left - ppl just walk on by lol
You can say hello I don't bite I used to pre wedding but now hubby won't let me says it's in the wedding contract, no biting other men
