    Poor MRs Dragon...things can only start to get better surely.I feel so bad for you and just want to come and give you both a hug.I really don't knoiw what to say about it all but hope things improve soon for you both.xxxxxxx

    Thanks folks - I am shrinking more and more into myself which is not good - so I decided that from tomorrow I am not going to let the bar stewards grind us down any more. So we start dieting and exercising again :whistle: which will mean no more :EasterBun and I want to have lost 2 stone by :xmastree:, so starting this Wednesday the 1lb challenge is back on if folks are up for it AND I plan to cut up my CC and pay that off (again by :xmassmile if possible)

    Wayhay! Go for it Dragon. Love your positive attitude. Setting the personal challenges will really help you to motivate yourself and you are right - you can't let them get you down - you and Dr D. are worth more than the bunch of them put together! The 1lb challenge I have been singularly useless at but I am willing to give it a go. I have to do more exercise so will aim to do that rather than worry too much about dieting (though will try not to binge on chocolate! :o).

    Thanks mizmir, I haven't felt very positive this week (which leads to me not eating, which leads to weight gain! :huh::huh::huh:) - I thought we could kick off the 1lb challenge again from Wednesday (so no need to try and lose a pound for this week :D), hopefully Dr Dragon will have a better week as well!

    well done you on the dog training BTW - it looks as though that is really picking up!

    That doesn't seem fair at all :confused: - sounds like you need to get on the chocolate again to lose weight then! :D (Only kidding!)

    OK - will psych myself up to start Wednesday!

    It's doing pretty well as extra money but definitely not enough as sole income yet. But am enjoying it and find it relaxing so if I can get the balance right then it may be that that is all I need it to do.
