Have had the £783.49 shock of my life tonight which I'm still reeling from so can't even mention it yet - not good!

Tomorrow I'm giving up bread and rolls for 7 days as I gorge on them, and they can't be good for the waist. This will be awful - but in terms of giving stuff up, it's just another in a long list :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:. Lets see if that'll kick start some pounds coming off!
