get real....

[tinkerbella]

I feel totally embarrassed about how I have let myself get yet again,im up down up down up down up up up,I've let myself go yet again.With being 78 for about a couple of years and loving it,i lost myself for a few reasons..We don't need too get into the resons but the point is I put all my weight back on and now its time yet again too try and lose it...
Im getting too old too be carring extra weight as it's slowing me down and making me tired.
Also with age comes sickness with the extra weight..
I was so embarrassed that I didn't want too put my weight on the forum as I've gone higher than I had ever wanted too go again.
but I feel I have found a couple of people that are by my side here and will help me along the way....

And I thank them very much and I'm sure you know whom you are..

Now I feel as if can get real....

Hey we've all posted and forgotten to add the picture! You don't see me doing it because I've got an extra edit button that I can use to retract my mistakes!

Thanks for posting the picture. You may be ashamed faced by it now but down the track this will be an inspiration to look back from and also inspire others!

Looking forward to the newer pictures...and seeing the smile grow and grow!

What has happened since 10 May?

Good for you to feel comfortable enough to post pic and confirm weights.. I've never really suffered from this, must be a man thing.. None of my male friends are over weight but I've always been able to joke it off with them..

On here the most embarrassing part to me has always been returning after an absence with increased weight.. And especially having had tremendous success and acknowledgement from my peers here in the past.. to go from 107 to 78 before yoyo'g for a few years to return at 113 was pretty uncomfortable to admit to on here but as I've said many times this forum is all about keeping it real.. I have a good laugh around here but I do take the weight loss of all of us pretty serious and it's great to receive and satisfying to give support to others..

hahhahhha,i do tend too be a bit double dutch at times don't I,i even know im a bit that way..sometimes I re read my stuff and think wtf also....

im busy this morning....house work ect
I have too be at home when the birds come home from a toss....pigeons have been sent on a truck only too come home for food,which I have too be home too give them food so they come straight into our loft....I call them in with a whistle and a fantail(a pretty white fluffy bird)
BUT...I thought ive got time,so I jumped into my car and headed too KMart too get new scales....
now with the new scales being digital I now can see too perfection what my weight is....

do you get me???
it must be my accent.......

It was the birds come home from a toss that really threw me for a while but all (sorta) makes sense when you expand on the subject - still it would be quite funny to see you dressing up in feathers and enticing them into your loft, Kim with sketch book to the counter please..

[tinkerbella]

yes gets interesting when talking too people about what I do,
talking about fanny = fantail,
and cocks re cock birds males.....

and the best is going for a toss,which means taking the birds away for a fly.....


yes we go out for breakfast after we drop the birds off for a toss and all talk about the race the day before we get some strange looks...
usually im the only woman with a bunch of other tossers...


we have now raced for about 10 years so its like if I know all about it you should also....

[JP1]

'other tossers' too funny!

[JP1]

OK, I'm never going to get this opportunity again so two questions I've always had (sorta) in the back of my mind..

/1/ have any of your birds ever said 'fark this for a game of soldiers' and not bothered to come home?

/2/ has one ever been 'tossed' and just sort of flew on to the top of your car (or whatever) and just looked at you for a while before flying off?

1 yes all the time,thats why you need a new lot every year.....we have about 50 new babys every year..
2 yes that also happens when they are young and its new too them they go around and around and around until they are tired then head home,these pigeons are hopeless and you could call them tossers...
you want them too come out of the truck and head straight home ...

you do know I should be in the back yard not chatting here.....

[JP1]

Haha, OK final question, do any of these missing birds ever come back weeks or months later?
