    Hey Louise - re the dog treats -
    I make biscuits for my dogs - it's really cheap & gives you something to do in the evenings! If you want the recipe let me know? & well done on your new life so far!!

    Yeah.. Louise it's kinda exciting stuff! (don't stay that out loud though!!! ;) )

    I love going supermarket shopping now.. trying to hunt for all the deals and working out how many "healthy" meals I can get out of it! Like today.. 12 cans for Diet coke for £2.29 at the work canteen that would by me 4 cans!

    Just keep up the good work! :)
