    I put on half a pound this week. Its my 70th birthday tomorrow,and some family are away,so we started celebrating early last weekend! Oh dear.chocolate liqueurs were my downfall!clear.pngclear.pngOnly half a pound gain is probably quite reasonable in the circumstances!clear.pngclear.pngclear.png.Back in days of yore before the diabetes and slimming issues I could have put on much more.
    Good thing too I am having a Dry January,or it could have been disastrousclear.pngclear.pngclear.pngclear.png So that makes 3st 13 lbs lost. Dont expect to lose anything this week,birthday tomorrow,sure to have visitors,then 14 family members are all going for an all-you-can-eat meal at a an Indian restaurant on Saturday.Cant see me losing anything by next Tuesday really,but once I get back into things the following week,I need to get stuck in. Its to be a Free Food February,so that might be a spur. I lost 6lbs in January,would be happy with 4 in February . We'll see!:D:D:D
  • Happy happy birthday for tomorrow :bdaycake:

    Beautiful cake!And I wont put on an ounce either.I am a rather indifferent plain cook and I dont have the patience,time or skill to do anything like that,but I admire those who can
    Thank you so much:T:T:T

    Thanks Sayschezza! Can I put in any age instead of the question marks?
    I run a reading grouping and by a strange coincidence we are all 26 years old,despite appearances to the contrary. Yep,I am 26....and a bit......a very large bit!;););)
    Not doing anything today,going to just loll around and read and come online

  • You can be the age you feel DD. I personally think my birth certificate is incorrect and a big mistake made with the DOfB as I can’t possibly be 74 this month.
