    Down to 15/2 this morning so 1lb lost this week and 11lb so far this month. Not bad for the week considering I've done nothing but bake!

    Firstly I know for a fact that The Dragon is a female dragon!!! :rotfl:

    I am getting a lot out of it - support, tips, advice etc - but I am not putting enough back in. And I feel bad. I've done quite badly today - again. This can't go on...

    What about you? What are you getting out of it? xo

    Thank you folks but I can't take all the credit for this idea! zzzlazydaisy started it off all I have done is keep it going (as she seems to have fallen off the radar!), and yes I am a female Dragon :rotfl:

    Well done to all the losers! it looks as though we are all doing rather well (I hope I have a good result this week! Dr Dragon dragged me kicking and screaming to the pub for supper last night :D)

    Dr Dragon and I watched the world's best diet and thought the results were skewed as well, basically it said nothing we didn't already know (eat a sensible amount, stop snacking, have three meals a day, up your exercise if you can!)

    Basically we thought that not one of those diets was something you could stick to all the time (although seeing as both Dr Dragon and I love Oriental food that was the one we could see us sticking to!), also it only showed main meals, what about breakfasts and easy lunches as well as entertaining as well!

    :T to all the losers this week.

    I weigh in tomorrow and am a bit "hmmm" about it. Haven't been doing it long enough to have spotted any sort of patterns so I have no idea if I've lost anything. Seem to be feeling increasingly introspective recently as well which isn't helping. I'm annoying myself already! :o
