Ok....... My husband now thinks I am insane, but I am measuring 8 sheets of Sainsbury's own brand peach loo roll!!

I am quite pleased as I thought I was massive as I have put almost two stone on already. I now know it has to be down to my giant boobs! A nice pair of whopping 34 Gs! There is no way I can lean forward any more without toppling over

Oh going to try this tonight!
we have single sheets in a dispenser at work, so would end up making a bit of a mess if i tried it here!!!
I was 52 inches around the middle on the 16th July, had to get measured for a t shirt at work!! (I did start off a size 18/20 before pregnancy - so never really had a dainty waistline anyway!!)

I'm 8 sheets! Glad to see its around the average mark but oh my god, I feel so so so soooooooooooooo huge. I'm only short 5ft 2 and am convinced I'm bigger than I should be due to eating too much!!

Just love this post thought i could measure myself at work but loo roll doesnt have any sheets just one big roll. So had to wait till i got home. We have andrex and i measured 81/2 sheets, also jumped on the scales while i was at it and have put on 10lbs. I put on 19lbs in total with my last pregnancy so i think this is about the same.
Currently 25+2
