    I have some before and after (sort of) photo's knocking around if anyone's interested, but I'd have to post them later as I can't access them at work.

    Just make sure that you remain good between now and then.

    I did my dance class last night and I've worked out that I burned just over 610 calories and I'm hoping to get about 40/45mins of aerobic's tonight which would be another 300 and something!

    I can burn off the chocolate I ate!!!!! Woo Hoo!!!!!

    Well Done LIH and welcome back Buffy!

    I'm not doing so well at the moment, seem to be going through a bit of depression again which means that I'm eating everything that comes at me whether I should or not!

    But I did manage a 40 min workout last night, I just feel so low at the moment and I am sure I have put those 2 lbs back on.

    I can't understand why I do this to myself, I just feel so stupid, you would think I would be able to stop this by now. But no I just keep stuffing food in my mouth.

    I was getting dressed for work in tears this morning because I feel so pants.

    Lucy - just posted on your diary - big hugs - try not to worry about the chocolate eating as you've been doing so much exercise, and even if you have put on a little, you WILL get it off - you know you can because youre fab!
