    I hope I've done better this week Maz, but tomorrow's scales will reveal the truth!!

    Beanie and BB - I'm so glad it's not just me who feels like that and thinks everyone's looking down on me because my eyebrows are slightly unkemped and I've not 2 tonnes of make-up on! I go to my friend's mum for my waxing, which is much better as you're one to one with her and she's very friendly!

    Anyway, time to dash. Take care and chat soon! QBx
