    Looking forward to reading (and of course, hearing and seeing in person) how well you are doing this year. You also have to remember how far you have come since Jan 07 - you have either been losing or pretty much staying the same - not much gaining going on really... I am sure your wee mum...

    Mine used to have a leader and a helper weighing. I actually preferred the helper as my leader was less than useless - the helper was more help!!

    Even though you came off, it does sound like you are still in control and just exercising your right to choose to eat what you want to eat - now that you are choosing to be back on track, you'll fly again. Think Karen's suggestion is a good one. Might try that - diet number 550 I think now!!!
