    I am sure they would:D:rotfl::rotfl: To be honest there is wide menu range- all at different prices. That one is for the full shebang as it were:rotfl::rotfl:

    And i did see a few folk sharing;) :D Far too much in all honesty for one person.

    Oh and here's me sounding like this is cheap-it's not and is a one off. I can live off that amount for the month if i have to -in fact i have done and am back on the storecupboard challenge as we speak. :)

    I was spoilt and made me feel that things can change and will, he made a massive effort and i will do so as well. We are both talking things through constantly and this was probably the break we needed. I really do want things to change. :)

    On the spoilt front- i am back to the shred as well..good job i have stretchy pants that's all i can say.

    I hope so Taxi- he has certainly changed around. Maybe we had to get to rock bottom before he realised some things.:o It has also made me look at my attitude as well. I know i am not entirely to blame in any of this, but i kept thinking why i was still moaning about it all- yes i was trying to change and have made some very positive changes. But i had to think right back to basics on all levels. Dragon's thread and El's advice have helped me a lot on that score. I also didn't want to give up our life together- we have three lovely kids, one who as you know has been through so much health wise. We have both been involved in that, but somehow forgot ourselves. I often wonder how much i actually didn't invest in our personal relationship because of energies needed elsewhere. I also needed to look at how much he did do for me on the little levels- and likewise what i did. So all in all we have both had a deep talk and i hope an honest one! Onwards and upwards.
    I really do feel like i have something to celebrate and be grateful for.

    One of them being back on the Shred:D
    Only put on 3lbs despite the gourmet meals-nom nom
    I have this site and all the fabby folk on to help me through it all.

    So all good:D
