Foxie, thank you so much for encouraging and supporting us! You're right - this has been a great journey! We've learned a lot and made many friends along the way, and now we continue together.

The things we've learned make such a difference - I really fancied a pastry with my morning coffee (something I haven't had for months), but remembered AllyL's advice about cutting it up small- so I cut it in half, cut one half into little pieces and ate them slowly. the other half remains untouched, I felt satisfied - and enjoyed the pastry more because it was in dainty little pieces, nicely arranged on the plate! (Perhaps if I'd had a doiley I would have only eaten a quarter

)

After today, I won't be around for a couple of days, so think of me and send me lots of positive thoughts, please!
