    Maman and Honey Bear, my favourite cheese is Roquefort no contest, but any sort of cheese is good in my book really.

    Dizzy, how are you going? ... Btw don't feel you need to join in today if it doesn't suit, or avoid the same things (obviously).

    I tried. I really did. *sigh* ate 10 biscuits one after the other after weighing myself to find I'd put back on the 1.5lbs I'd lost last week. *rude raspberry noises*

    Oh well, AF today though ;)14/30 please Shaggy - is that my next smiley?

    I'm a strictly hard cheese fan. Can't stand runny, stinky or mouldy cheese - urgh

    9/25 AFDs for tonight.


    Thanks for posting the petition link, Shaggy. On the upside, this has generated such a wave of positive media for parkrun. So shortsighted of the Parish Council.


    Petition here - please sign it, and share it on all your social media sites everyone!

    What would you get if all you got was what you were thankful for?

    Dizzy, I've been there! I weighed myself the other day to find I'd gained 2kg I didn't want to gain. Have done with the biccies too, though milk chocolate or caramel chocolate is more my usual downfall and I can't keep them in the house. I suppose that was more or less why I wanted to do the "no treats" thing to begin with because these things have such a psychological hold, and in fact that was what I noticed today even more than the hunger pangs - the mind thing, where I don't like the sense of deprivation. It is similar to booze, in that if I find myself thinking "I really want a drink" I then think "well that's why it's not a wise idea to have one". Easy to say. Sigh. I got through today at least.

    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.
