    i gotta get into the habit of having a propper dinner instead of eating junk and snacking!:o

    but when it's for 1 it seems such a palaver!

    but when cooking for one you can make whatever suits you without accommodating others' tastes/allergies etc and the occassional gourmet treat is more affordable for one...

    Plus - you're worth the effort!

    Yes, mines a loose target too! As long as I feel good in my clothes that'll do.Although we are going on holiday with friends, and shes a size 8, so whatever happens I feel like a sasquatch alongside her! We bought a Life Fitness cross trainer on Ebay from a gym that was closing down, but we never use it.....

    is she tiny because she starves herself, because she works hard for it or because she's naturally petite?

    To match the first two you need a strong will and desire to sacrifice certain lifestyle elements (food and free time for example - and yes I was that person for various reasons) and you just can't compete with the 3rd so its not worth the brain power required for envy...

    Hellooooo!

    Just back from a 9k walk and it knackered me. Seriously, lol.

    Washed car today, inside and out and did 4 loads of laundry. (which I still have to iron...)

    One of my best mates and her hubby had a baby girl today-so pleased for them-Rebecca Rose and she was big! Nearly as big as DS-9lbs12. Yeah Vicky! And she was doing body combat classes up til last week as well, lol.

    Excellent going Luc! x
