I'm thinking yes - a sponsored slim just what I need
But then I'm seeing my store cupboard lined up with boxes of biscuits and chocolates from Christmas
Perhaps they should move new year on a bit to around March?

Okay - you must all have eaten those Christmas choccies and biccies by now. Who's lost the most weight I want to know. Looks as though only Di has been taking this seriously. :lol:

I still have 2 boxes of chocolates. I won so many raffle prizes at the hospital at Christmas- I think I was the only one buying tickets!

Hey NL, bet you've lost a couple of pounds racing around today, but were you "running late" as per the norm :wink:

It's not the right time of year anyway to try shedding a few pounds. We all need the extra warmth at this time of year.

Well, I have to confess, I haven't lost a single ounce :oops: :oops:

But they say that muscle weighs heavier than fat ... I must have been growing LOTS of muscles!

... and exercising makes me soooo HUNGREY!!!
Some mistakes are too much fun
to only make once.

Has BCC become so much of a chore for you that it is no longer fun?? -- I hope not as it brings so much joy to so many people!

That is so nice of you MG thank you xx

I don't know what to say on that one.
I am really pleased that people enjoy it as that is what it should be enjoyable
but it does take some organising
and if it wasn't for all the help I get I just couldn't cope with it.
So thank you to everyone involved I do appreciate it
X :wink:

Must admit I am the worst nibbler out but when adding info and names on BCC I never think about eating I enjoy it so much. So I ask myself should I stay on all day and become a new slim me :grin: :roll:
