Lisa and Steph were up before 8am this morning, a rare sight in the Big Brother house.

The housemates normally only wake at 9am when Big Brother announces that the hot water is on, but the pair were up and sitting on the sofas for a good old girly natter well before their calling today.

The first subject up for discussion was weight, with Lisa revealing that she had already lost 3 or 4 lbs since coming into the house on Saturday night. She went on to admit that she has been losing weight consistently since she had a bout of stomach poisoning from a hot dog a short while ago.

Weight watching wasn't an issue for Steph, meanwhile, who said that the heaviest she had ever been was 9 and a half stone. "I've never been able to diet to save my life," she continued, explaining that she's a self-regulatory person anyway.

Both agreed that Gos had lost a lot of weight since coming into the house almost six weeks ago, although Steph was quick to point out that all of the boys had.

Other subjects taken in by the pair included family genetics, haircuts and brown bread.

Both Lisa and Steph have admitted to feeling uneasy around each other in recent days, but are they now starting to form a bond? We'll keep you posted...
