    It's really upsetting me having them in the house and I feel like I want to throw it all in the bin! But thats not fair on Matt or DD.
    welcome Jodie

    I have the same problem, a house full of chocs! My solution? Put them all in OH's work bag and let him take them all to the office! If he keeps them in his desk drawer I can't get to them! :D
    As for DD - perhaps you could put them in a tin and put her name on it, that way it will prevent you from having any as you will see that they are hers, not yours. know what i mean?

    Right guys, I've done my own WI chart/target list for the next 5 months:
    today = 11,0
    Jan-5th 10,13
    12th 10,12
    19th 10,11
    26th 10,10
    Feb 2nd10,9
    9th 10,8
    16th 10,7 - BACK TO ORGINAL START WEIGHT (MINI TARGET 1)
    23rd1 0,6
    March 2nd 10,5
    9th 10,4
    16th 10,3
    23rd 10,2
    30th 10,1
    April 6th 10,0 - HALFWAY TARGET
    13th 9,13
    20th 9,12
    27th 9,11
    May 4th 9,10
    11th 9,9
    18th 9,8 - MINI TARGET 2
    25th 9,7
    June 1st 9,6
    8th 9,5
    15th 9,4
    22nd 9,3
    29th 9,2 - FINAL TARGET

    does this look realistic? I want to lose 1lb per week, but obviously will aim to lose more (1lb is a minimum)

    Just thought I might aswell ask in here as my threads in other boards havent been answered yet!

    Anybody used a Workout game for Kinect? If so which one and is it any good?

    got a wii and a PS3 move

    anything that gets your heart rate elevated for 30-60 mins 3 times a week will be good for you, if you stick to it.

    the kinetic controller free system seams to be ideal for this type of exercise

    Hi Pudding,

    Its a local fitness camp, i found out about it as the guy who runs it was giving leaflets out near my train station. This is mainly an exercise camp where you go for 3 weeks but it gives you a kick start.

    Hope the link works.

    Eric what are those collectables from? I don't recognise them :o

    Betty have signed you up for 5lb challenge - do you want to be in the north or south team or the inbetweeners?

    I will only count award nominations that have been pm'd to me - if you want to nominate everyone then you can type everyone ;)
