Woohoo, back from WW and I lost half a pound :j :j Genuinely have no idea how as my scales were not as kind, but its very motivating
I like to think its the 3 shred sessions tha made the difference this week
So on that note I'm just letting my food go down then I'm off to do todays shredding.
After WW we popped into tescos and got 3 easter eggs for £2.50 (for ds and my 2 nephews), they will stay in the car boot though so I'm not tempted to eat them
also got some fruit and ham.
So, ds homesork, shred, bath and bed, thats it tonight, oh and some more emails backwards and forwards with coffee guy

And that is a fantastic 32.33% towards this year's target. Just think, 1% to go and you'll be a third of the way there!
And about a fifth of the year has elapsed, to date! i.e. 75 days.
Great progress! :T:T:T

Hope parents evening goes ok - we've got ours next week!
Sorry I didn't get back to you re the phone - DH can't remember what that phone does or doesn't do.0 -
Thankyou Dangers, no problem about the phone

Back from parents evening, it seemed much more positive this time around, he said ds is still very difficult to motivate and needs constant focussing on the task, but his behaviour has improved slightly
Guess its a step in the right direction 
Ds is still at his friends house so I have managed to fit in day 4 of shred and whizzed round the flat making it look presentable, hoovered and put the washing machine on
