When I finished my A2 Levels (a shocking 4 and a half years ago now) I joined Weight Watchers with my mum in an effort to shift some of my rhinocerous sized body mass.
I was dedicated and determined and I lost 3 and a half stones (around 22 Kg I think) and reached my gold weight. In order to do this, I had to make certain sacrifices....like Coca Cola - the full fat stuff.
Diet Coke was completely allowed, as it has 0 points in it, and could therefore be consumed as much as was desired.
Obviously I complied and quit my fat coke for thin coke and lost the weight.
Having been beaten into submission this way and for so long, I found drinking fat coke unpleasant as it made my teeth feel funny.
It would appear that having quit fat coke for 4 years and then accidentally getting a pint last night had some unusual side effects.
I had the hugest caffeine and sugar rush combined, and proceeded to dance like a woman possessed for the next 30 minutes. My bar supervisor who was out with me was rather bemused as I was bouncing all over the place in a slightly odd manner, and decided to see how far it would go if he got me a second fat coke. Cue a very giddy, bouncy Merys who managed to make everyone think she was drunk out of her skull (except today I don't have the hangover . . . just toothache). I was so hyped up I didn't even have an alcoholic drink all night.
Moral of this story - never ever give me full fat Coca Cola unless you want me to annoy you for the next 30 minutes.

if you were 10 years old and done this, you would be in to see a doctor and told you had ADHD. Ahh Coke the root of all evil ;)
Better keep you away from Smarties too..........
SD
;-)
but they have the answer!
Have you heard of Red Bull. You could run a marathon.
Didn't they make Smarties take all the e-numbers out recently and use only natural colours?
It made hyping kids up before they went home (after kids' parties) a lot less fun
The last smarties ad I saw was proudly proclaiming that there were no E numbers in the red smarties, or the yellow ones or the brown ones and so on and so forth.
BUT - they didn't mention the blue ones...
That's because they don't have blue ones any longer, they can't colour them without e numbers!
A sad loss indeed.
mmmmmmm, my ex wife must be giving them something else before I pick them up then.....
