    I'm ready to start tomorrow!!

    I've given up chocolate about 3 weeks ago with my detox and then atkins, which I'm on for the rest of the week.
    BUT I've been eating diabetic chocolate as this is super low carbs!!
    A little treat/cheat I've been rather indulging in!!
    So Wednesday to Wednesday... No Diabetic chocolate either!!!

    That will be tough, was my treat :sad:

    As I'm already pretty much at my goal weight I'm just going to be joining you for the weekly challenges as a way to keeping motivated while I'm maintaining my weight loss and keep me moving forward with more exercise.
    Hope this is alright with everyone!! xxxx

    GOOD LUCK TO ALL :flowerforyou:
