    I can't believe I even fessed up about that, I'm such a hideous troll :(

    awwwwwwww, thanks peeps about the bag :kiss: I'm going to hold strong though and not get one, I don't want to look at it in a few months time if I end up back in a part time job (my afternoon job contract might not be renewed in March) and think 'pooh I spent £20 on a bag :o'

    I put more comfy clothes on (tshirt and tracky bottoms)

    It's easy to give in to that negative voice that chants "cant do it" BUT we lift each other up.
    We dont count all the runners ahead of us & feel intimidated.
    Instead we look back proudly at our journey, our personal struggle & determination & remember that there are those that never even attempt to reach the starting line.
  • My DH bought me a Terry Chocolate orange for Christmas.

    Mind you, I am a contrary so and so as I luuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuurve jaffa cakes

    I'm wishing I'd got some desserts for xmas, I really fancy cheesecake now! Don't really have anything sweet though, except xmas cake and I'm a bit sick of that.

    Is that your homemade cake Ames? - How did it come out?

    The first one was a bit crunchy on top cos I forgot to put paper over it (but being weird I liked the crunchyness!) the second one's fine. Not quite the same as grandma used to make, but near enough!

    I love chocolate orange, and they are selling them off for £1 each all over the place, but I am trying to be good now.

    Somehow managed to lose 3lbs over Christmas :rotfl: no idea how! Just getting back into the running I guess.
