    Woohoo I made it...just. I had to do a bit of Wii Zumba tonight because I was about 100 calories short. After a busy Easter Sunday I almost was'nt going to do it, but it was only 100 calories so I just did it (and burnt an extra 100 on top :smile: ).
    I hope everyone is having a lovely Easter :happy:
