Well said, gilley. Wibbly wobbly bits be gone! I'd like to think that the Evil Fat Fairy waved her magic wand over me and made me gain 3lbs but I know it's all my own doing. But the good news is that means I have the power to undo it. At least I'm not the only gainer, so we're all in this together.
Thanks as usual for the encouraging words, mjm. I love the fat particles in the air theory!
A special well done to all you losers, ChrissFi, Blossom, devondumpling, doesmybum, Duncs and sarahjane.
Everyone else who is struggling like me "We can do it if we learn to chew it." Sing this to the B&Q theme tune.
