    Imho chocolate is made from beans, which are vegetables, and blueberry muffins are a portion of fruit....so by that logic Christmas cake and chocolate orange and jaffa cakes and toblerone all count as one of your 5 a day :D

    I'm loving your logic Floss :beer:

    Is anyone else really hungry???

    I am sure it is just because I know I am watching what I eat as I have eaten plenty today and wouldn't normally feel hungry on what I have eaten. On the bright side I have been drinking water to see if i was hungry or thirsty and now I will have to keep on running up and down the stairs to go to the loo.

    Me :rotfl:

    That flippin Christmas cake is singing and shouting my name :o

    I've just begged the kids to eat it - one likes the cake, but not the icing and marzipan. The other likes the icing and marzipan, but not the cake. They can share it I think ;)

    Thank god for that, I thought it was just me.

    Makes me feel better to know someone else is in the same hell as me. A problem doubled is a problem halved?
