Hi everyone

Many, many thanks for your replies - it's really encouraging to know I'm not alone and I will certainly pm you CheshireCat with updates. I don't want to 'compete' with the FF as this is about more than just losing weight so I hope they won't mind if I sometimes post updates too.

I went to an awful meeting this evening connected with work and whereas normally I'd have come home and had a big G&T this time I resisted temptation as I didn't want to have to confess I'd fallen at the first hurdle (I feel soooo virtuous LOL).

Do please pm me to and let me know how you're doing and welcome CharliesAngel - this really is an addictive site!

Unfortunately the weather has no effect on the amount of wine I consume

Best wishes everyone
