    Yum yum chocolate cake QB..

    I've got a really scrummy choc cake recipe from Ww :o but its so nice that its just not heathly if you can half of it in one go (supposed to serve 12!)

    Haha.. no my cake looked fab, but was pretty horrid actually. Maybe the virus has destroyed my tastebuds!!! (every cloud has a silver lining I suppose)

    How are you finding WW? I think their recipes etc are nicer than SW's but you have to exercise more moderation, and tbh, I like to eat lots!

    :rotfl:I've just eaten a chocolate eclair :rotfl:

    I've been going to WW for almost 3 years now. I'm a helper too but I've never got to goal although I was only 3lb before the homeymoon :D The recipe's are scrummy but I'm afraid I rarely weigh the servings out like I should.

    TBH if I didn't do WW I'd easily put on the weight so going keeps me aware of what I'm doing even if I don't follow it as strictly as you should :) ATM I'd love to lose 10lb just so I can put it on again at Xmas!

    Arn't I terrible? :rolleyes:

    Oh, did I mention that I'm going round a friends tomorrow for drinks and a takeaway?

    Yes, well, I'm meeting a friend to go to the cinema this evening, and as we all know, a films not a film without popcorn or a little tub of Hagen Daaz. Then again, I suppose I could try and smuggle in a pot of Muller Light, couldn't I??

    What are we like? :rotfl:

    Its Monday :( bah

    I ate far too much Saturday and spent all day Sunday recovering - what a waste of a day. Bar that Saturday was really good fun, went with friend to look at wedding dresses and she found one she loved :)

    Didn't get weighed this weekend so I've got to be good this week (apart from a meal out on wed) I have to say that I like my gym pass earthgirl even though its an expense - £36p/month- but then it makes me go cause I've paid for it!

    How was the film QueenBee?

    This weekend is just going to fly by! Both mornings I'm looking after the exhibition, we're planning to see a film one night, have dancing the other and no doubt the rest will be spent tyding and watching tv.

    Hope everyone has a good weekend
