    I'm trying the lots of sushi and salad diet. My inspiration is Kim Cattrall. If I look as hot as her at 53 (If only I looked that hot now!) , then my work is done. xx

    I've been eating loads of salad and sushi recently - and have lost 2lbs!

    Nearly bought the Carrie Diaries earlier - half price in Waterstones :D

    I quite like it when that happens...I can return them without feeling like I'm missing out. Depends if you needed them in the first place though? If you need stuff, it's frustrating when you can't find a jacket, top, shoes etc that you like...



    Oh no :eek: I have a habit of losing earrings, which is quite frustrating. I've lost some really lovely ones over the years :(



    Well done! What is an ESTA? Whereabouts in America are you going?

    Good job on having the car tax money saved and the bargainous wedding outfit :T

    Let me know how you get on with the sea kelp tablets...I could do with losing a few lbs aswell :o

    Thanks Gwen

    ESTA - electronic system for travel authorisation - a sort of electronic visa! Florida :j

    Starting the sea kelp tomorrow - and an exercise plan! Wish me luck :D
