Nerd Alert, Nerd Alert

I feel like such a nerd, but I couldn’t help myself — I added a bunch of this years Biggest Loser Australia contestants on Facebook, I never usually add celebrities and certainly not reality tv ‘stars’, but I was missing them and…and…and…meh.

I have Meaghan and Julie, Ben and Sean, Andrew (or is it Nathan? I never did learn which was which), Amanda, Jodi and Jeda, Mel…and I have pending requests for the others. Though my favourites don’t seem to be on there, no Teresa, Sharif, Bob or Tiffany!

I have seen some photos that I wasn’t expecting though, I have to remember not to judge — out in the real world these people don’t have to never drink or eat bad foods and maybe those that are are burning the calories off first or just having one naughty day.

But the last thing you expect to see 4 days after leaving the house are pictures of them with fags in hand, pints of beer and even a kebab in one case!

I hope they all keep the weight off.

What to wear

You wouldn’t believe the trouble I have had over the last few weeks trying to find a dress to wear for a wedding I am going to next Saturday.

yhst-50958542405417_2050_439259760It’s a pretty foreign concept to me, being skinny enough to wear pretty dresses — the last time I went to a wedding in 2006 I was wearing a size 22 and it was a case of just buying something that fit and didn’t look too much like a tent, I did not feel confident in what I was wearing but then…I didn’t feel confident full stop.

Now I have a whole world of gorgeous formal dresses opened up to me I just don’t know where to begin.

I didn’t know what styles suited me, I didn’t know what shapes suited me, I didn’t know what colours suited me, I didn’t know what dresses were ‘weddingy’, what shoes to wear with what dress etc etc

Several shopping trips and three returned outfits later I finally have it sorted. I am wearing a gorgeous bronze coloured empire line dress that comes to just below the knee, a little orange shrug on the top and killer brown heals and a satin clutch bag.

Hopefully I will feel confident in this one :)
