    Thanks as always Beanie, its certainly worth it however...

    Snaggs its mainly because I will be stuck if I get this new job because I will not have enough to cover anything. So I am thinking why keep going if I cant get to goal? Then I am thinking do I not bother going for the job so I can stay on the diet and re-look in the new year? Or even apply for this again when they re-run in May? Negative thoughts again, even though I try and brush them asside its part common sense :confused: I have about 44/48 to lose so a fair bit to go sadly :rolleyes: Also I am really missing food now, I mean after 7 months wouldn't you :o

    Anyways, off to distract myself, I need to do 60 comps today and I have only done 5 dailys :rotfl:
