Thanks, Ktgirl and Deb. I'm probably feeling more bummed out about the 1kg than I should be, really. It's just that at 69kg I'm within a healthy weight range for my height and at 70kg I'm officially overweight. And it isn't all that easy for me to lose weight, I can't exercise as much as I would like because of the arthritis. So I need to watch what I eat very carefully - but those three days have awoken the carb-craving monster, so it's hard! Also with Christmas and having too much of the wrong kinds of food on offer... I'll get there! But it's all contributing to a day of poor body image. Add to that the fact that I've got a friend coming over and the house is in a right state (it's filthy!) but my hand is still too sore to do much cleaning... gah!

But, I refuse to let this get to me too much! I'm sure my friend will cope with the messy house and the grotty kitchen and bathroom, and until then I'll just lurk about in the study with belly belly!
