    What do we do when we fall? We get up, dust ourselves off and start walking in the right direction again. Perhaps when we fall, it is easy to forget there are people along the way who help us stand and walk with us as we get back on track.

    Not sure if I will be AF tonight so won't declare early - visiting friends and there may well be wine involved ;)

    Now I know this sounds a bit sad but could I have my 'target beaten' smiley added please Shaggy - I like seeing them all lined up together :D

    Good to see you posting again NewStartDMP and glad you're over the 'flu.

    Well done for getting back into the exercise thing Shaggy. I'm a bit jealous of you enjoying it because I have to say I don't. I like swimming but even that's not working for me at the moment. Fortunately I'm not stuck in a sedentary job any more although I'm not hyperactive but I sort of on the move most of the time. It's all about cutting down on fat and sugar for me and I know it.

    OH and I have just been out for a very chocolatey lunch and it was fantastic, just what I wanted to celebrate my three year anniversary today. I'm really chuffed with myself about being AF and now feeling ever so slightly sick but it was fabulous and well worth it. And I've bought a bag of handmade chocolates home as well. They'll last a few days because we only allow ourselves a couple after dinner while we're watching something on television. I'm not giving them up, but I think the cheap and cheerful stuff that I've got will go in the freezer until I've lost just under a stone. There. Decision made. I want to go back to 9.5 stone, 60 kgs, so that's 5.6 kgs that have to go. I haven't been that weight for 10 years and I'd really, really like to see the sticky-out-stomach go. And the boobs could do with a bit of reduction too.

    26/31 please, Shaggy and thanks for the 31 for August. Spot on. I would never have lasted the full three years without this thread and all of the support. Thank you everyone, particularly you Shaggy.
    Better is good enough.
