I like yr taste in clothes SD x!

CM, my Mum liked the cardi so much, she went and ordered one online for £69!

managed to see all in the end- not sure how! Very nice. looking at photos is a bit like doing puzzles at the moment

@merlin you're right there- it's like taking pot luck, and see what you end up with ...

Very nice @Silverdarling love the wrap you've got a great couple of bargains there your windfall will soon be blown away

Already is @Sue.Q already is!

Not very exciting purchases by me but desperately needed bought 2 more (much needed) new bras I'm so happy these are 2 sizes down from this time last year trouble is the 2 I bought 6 months ago are useless.

@Sue.Q - oh a new bra is such a good feeling moment - relief! Um, I'm at a 20lbs loss and a shorty and not budging in the bustiest dept so I'm top heavy at the mo. Will we ever win yes we will! I need a full cup white bra for the wedding outfit I bought today. Not sure about the dress, taking it north for my sists to see next weekend. If I wear it, it will be for one day.
New bra's are like a great haircut feel. I need that too. I'm buying NKNW, nice knickers next weekend Sue, are you knicker browsing?

Buddy@spanner - keeping in touch

I feel your pain Lizbean i am just over 5ft tall and have lost 19lb all told ( i lost some before i started 5.2) But not a jot from my top half, i'm 32F it's a wonder i don't topple over i'm off to a wedding next week and am now on dress number three all because i can't get my boobs to fit in anything

Whenever I've lost weight in the past it's always been from my face and boos first, slowly filtering down to the important parts that really needed to shed fat. With 5:2 I have lost it all over and so little from my boobs which is such a relief because I used to be very pear shaped, not so much now. This is pretty exciting stuff.

The ' not losing from boobs' seems to be a common theme
For me it makes a pleasant change..in the past ive always lost first from boobs,fingers,face whilst hips,thighs remained unchanged.tho can see why it's a prob @janpartlyand @lizbean Frustrating when trying to buy something that caters for both yr slimmer hips and your unchanged size booobs x

@chinchin when I started 5:2 I did think to myself I'll keep an eye on the boos as an indicator of reaching goal but as@Janpartly says they are staying well grounded. I thought it was just me but it's interesting to know we are not alone @CandiceMarie. Perhaps we should set up camp ..... I think my dress will be returned despite it being very pretty. Good luck with dress no 3 Janpartly - and I hope you have a fab time at the wedding next week. I'm off to my Dad's 95th birthday party next weekend, ah not sorted out my party outfit.................now what shall I wear? It's Italian in theme, Campari, Prosecco and Italian love songs

Sounds like your Dad's bday party will be a blast @Lizbean i love Campari,Prosecco and Italian love songs! x
Don't forget to tell us all about it afterwards x

I'm still a 44E or even a 44F. At one point I thought I had gone down to a C, but the bras I bought in that size were too small. For me its been thighs, bum and the water retention from my lower legs has gone. So tops are still a bugbear for me. Anything that now fits across my shoulders is too tight across my bust. Yet if I get something that fits my bust the shoulder seams are halfway down my biceps. I shall just have to live in t'shirts for a couple more years.

I can't see a lot of photos, which is a shame.
