Gosh you were small when you were young 10 - 12 is still tiny. yes my dd appreciates her size and knows shes not fat, she doesn't care about what her peers think, although it might be different if she did have a weight problem. I always moan that she's lucky she can eat so much and stay slim, but as she says, she only eats when she is hungry, never eats between meals doesn't eat much junk food, hardly ever in fact, doesn't snack or pick at food and doesn't eat chocolate, she still had 2 boxes of hoclates left from Christmas until last week when she took them away with her and let all of her friends eat them, she didn't have one, she can open a box of choclates and only have one then not touch them for weeks on end, so its not suprising she is slim. I guess I've done something right, bringing her up like that (I never rewarded her with chocolate but things like books which she loves) just wish I had her willpower. If there is chocolate in the house I will eat it.
Sounds ike you've had another lovely day,how did you stop yourself from eating the cake? I've done okay today diet wise, there were loads of cakes, flapjacks etc at work again but I didn't have one! but when I got home I did have 2 oatcakes,!!
