    I have a German colleague who keeps bringing in Ritter Sport bars. They are sooooooo tasty, I could eat them all without sharing!
    Went to the gym this evening, does that mean I can eat as much chocolate as I possibly can?!

    I've done a big long run but I am resisting chocolate for tonight - until you lot made me think about it and in particular Wispa Gold - have made some cakes but they are healthy ones and don't come close to Wispas!

    Stop it!

    Enough about food...............I've just eaten chocolate :eek::eek::eek: but I did do the gym at lunchtime so don't feel toooo guilty but OH has brought me 5 bars back from shop :eek::eek::eek::eek:

    Much much better day today, decided to front individual making my working life hell and it was the best thing i could have done. Had a long, honest and frank discussion, apology received and we are friends again, and hope we can put it behind us (fingers crossed).

    Only spent money on a bit of food and apart from that nothing so am fairly pleased with myself. Need to sort out my 0% deals tomorrow night, will add it to my to do list.

    Off to bed now with my five bars of chocolate :EasterBun:EasterBun:EasterBun:EasterBun:EasterBun:shhh:
