The Slimming World Saga - Sixth (and final) Visit
I was actually in two minds as to whether I would attend the class this week, but a few people who are looking out for me persuaded me to keep it up, and I wasn't to be disappointed! I arrived a little earlier than usual, the bus driver decided he was going to challenge Lewis Hamilton to next season's Formula 1 championship. I was the first one there. I've learnt from past meetings, that getting there earlier means you have to wait longer.The Pedastal of Girth awaited... "Half off" said the woman, almost immediately this time! Now normally I don't whoop and holler unless there's a special occasion going on, but I was feeling suitably jubilant, and a tad proud, so out came the somewhat constipated "Yhhhay!" as I headed back to my seat. A lady was there who wasn't last week, so there is a new dialogue, one which I found slightly amusing:
Group Leader: Where were you last week eh?"
Woman: "I was away, I though I told you?"
GL: "It's not written in the diary, where were you?"
W: "I was on a weekend break with my husband.."
GL: "Oh really? And you didn't get in touch with me to tell me?"
W: "I thought I'd told you about it a week before?"
GL: "IT'S NOT WRITTEN!!"W: "Aah! S-sorry?!"
GL: "NEXT TIME, TELL SOMEONE YOU WILL BE ABSENT, OR A PLAGUE UPON YOUR FAMILIES!"(
OK I slightly exaggerated the last bit, but I thought the woman was about to cry!)
I was told of a secret item to take with me when I go to London next week. The are sin free, taste OK and you can fit 120 of them in a pair of suitably upholstered dungarees.The humble cup a soup. Never has anything been so lauded by the group leader as these sachets of pure unadultered soup! Several intoxicating flavours! You can fit two in a big cup! (as opposed to not even one in the crappy hotel-room cups!) She seemed incredibly enthusiastic, almost as if Batchelors had paid her to plug the soup in her class! (I do notice the subtle rhyme there, as should you if you have any sense/a dirty mind). I left with a re-instilled sense of pride after losing an entire half pound in weight. I'm fairly sure going to the toilet beforehand lost me that weight... Who's to say though.
I didn't go again at this point, it wasn't having that much of an effect and was giving me false hope. I hope you enjoyed my observations!
