    You are right Louise - it is like when only one of the couple has their LBM. You need to be in it together, both willing to make the changes it takes to get the outcome you want.

    Do you know what? I could happily lead a very simple life..........its other people who make it complicated.

    Which brings me to my next problem. Surely if you want to make big changes then it would help if the people you live with are game for it too or at the very least supportive?

    .............big problem.


    I hear you on that honey, Mum either presents me with a list of problems and a oh why attitude or just laughs!

    I have to email my tutor at the end of today with the revisions made to my report, so he can give me feedback on what I do next, so I must have something decent to send him. I am hoping if I do say 1-7pm of work on it, then that will work.

    I'm addicted to watching the news channels at the moment.
