    Baileys would probably be a good alternative - it's quite a dense liquid, so it must weigh LOTS!

    now even I know there's fat in there (yummy though it is), wine is fat free and good for you in moderation...hic...:o

    Guys, just wanted to let you know, I'm bowing out for now. I'll still keep reading the diaries (I'm a nosy buggar :o) and maybe posting on other MSE forums but for lots of reasons not here for now.

    I'll still keep up with the Olympic Challenge though, of course, so I'll see the challengers from there on the 8th :)

    hope everything is ok with you Gemmzie, don't disappear completely.

    Ahhh, but you see the fat content is offset by the extra calories you expend lifting the heavier weight. ;)

    Oh no Gemmzie - is there nothing we can do to change your mind? Has something happened? We will really miss you. :(

    We're definitely kindred spirits, you and I :D :beer:

    good point - I should have thought of that. I'm going to be skinny in no time although I may have a slightly dodgy yellowish tinge as my liver packs in.;)
