    I don't spend £70 a week on food for all 4 of us :cool: But yes, if it works for you then fab!

    I've got far to used to having boobs (and using them to my advantage) to get rid of them.

    I can walk 10 miles+ without any hassle, I don't have any health issues, I get the odd bit of sciatica but that's been linked to my epidural with DD1, I eat at least my 5 a day and I feel happy with who I am, so regardless of my weight/size I think I'm in quite a good place. :D


    And you know what there are many many women that would like to be in that place Pooky. Good for you lovely lady :T

    I think when I've reached 13stone 3 I'll be happy.

    My problem is my OH works away for 3 and a bit months at a time, so times I do comfort eat. I try not to buy naughty stuff but sometimes I give into temptation.

    Why is there hardly any decent offers on fresh stuff?

    i don't think we should fixate on being a certain weight... if you don't hit your target you'll only beat yourself up and feel worse.

    i think you should look to be a certain size - i want to be a 16/18.....
