Thank you everyone....so far the day is going well (despite the fact that I am now very old)! I am taking Susie's advice and eating every bit of chocolate I have placed in front of me (and some I found in the back of the fridge)! I think there is a huge possibility that the scales were wrong this morning and I haven't lost that much weight over night but have decided to go with it and worry about it tomorrow after tonight's birthday meal!
Tony got up early and made a batch of crumpets from scratch....so guess will have to get through those too - well it would be rude not to! Will waddle back here later!
