WELL DONE Loraine............
I know its a cliche , but half off is better than half on!! and you got your first 7lbs award, so look at it positively ( thats an order..lol)
Its a battle , but worth it when you are buying clothes  4 sizes smaller( as in my case) I still lovethe thrill of buying clothes, where I used to hate it
Keep it up , you can do it
Love Denisexx
