    We had Chinese last night – very naughty but very nice! :naughty: I really must start saying no when OH suggests these things! But I was feeling sorry for myself because of my cut hand (see my diary thread) – that’s my excuse and I am sticking to it! :o

    How tall are you Dragon? Because you don't actually look that overweight and I'm not just saying that either. You look to me about a size 20 to me.


    I was thinking the same thing.......to be honest you are loads slimmer than your start weight suggests - I don't think you look that much overweight! I love putting faces to names, good to see the pics.

    I'm cold this morning. Had some ready brek with banana. Off to pop it on my online diary. Another Green day today :T Day 2.......wish it was Day 102!!!

    We were only bowling, but I imagine it could be if you really got into it.

    It's not mine. My mate got one for his sons 4th birthday! Can you tell a man that is single with far to much money!

    For some reason he never wants to give any to me!

    Morning all.

    Well I've not had a good couple of days... garlic bread and a whole tub of Ben and Jerry's :eek:

    But I am going to be really good from now on and I am aiming for no syns for the next couple of days.

    Wish me luck!
