Thanks hun. Does yours have a mobile number, then you could send a text ? Come on, be brave
DH isnt as willing in all this as I'd hoped. He's moaning about the cost etc - over £50 each a week because we've both to have 4 shakes a day. I've told him he can either join me or not, because I'm definitely doing it. He's now sat chunnering to himself :rotfl:Is it better to aim for the stars and hit a tree or aim for a tree and land in its branches :think:Loves being a Wonderbra friend :kisses3:

Alpha, we spend £50 a week on takeaways, never mind the rest of the food shopping. I know we'll still be buying for the kids, but it wont be much. I dont think it's much to pay to get healthier and feel better about ourselves
