haleyscomet - glad i could help LOL. I can't stand diet coke, much prefer coke zero. It seems to be an acquired taste. The best thing is to give it up totally (I can't, but i've tried), although it's one of the first things that goes when I am pg. For some reason can't stand coke or tea and the smell of hot chips gets me. I really need to fall pg, again, it helps me lose weight. For both of my boys, I lost 10kg within the first couple of months and only ever put that weight back on. Don't know what happened later.

I've been trying to go walking of a morning (not very successfully and now the weather is against me). The dog tries to make me feel guilty, she sooks at the door if we don't go. Oh well, the weather is supposed to get better from tomorrow, so back on the wagon.

I really need to lose a little bit more weight. I'm being a bridesmaid for my BIL's wedding next year and would love to look a little "less".

Lea - Well done on 2kg.

Mel - great work - my dietician always said you'll lose fluid first, so once that's out of the way, then off comes the "extras."
