Update ..

Have I really been away this long? 
So far the 'fat club' has freed me of 1 stone and 5 pounds
I am beginning to feel more socially acceptable and people are noticing which is a good thing!!
I do have to say I owe it to the threat of ritual humiliation, getting weighed on a weekly basis works for me however much it costs! I have learnt to be inventive with food ... and also that the exercise is the important bit!!
I have been doing 20 minutes a day .. ;0)
