    Sorry I didn’t post yesterday. I have been wallowing in depression and self pity since last Friday. Normally, I can achieve whatever I put my mind to. In this case I couldn’t. I don’t take “no” or failure well. Spent the aftermath punishing myself by overeating and sitting around. Am over it now. Ready to get back to life. Will have to work on compassion towards myself instead of punishing when things don’t go as hoped.

    I am glad you are feeling better. You have proven many times you can overcome anything. You got this!

    I make my own pesto ... but instead of using pine nuts (overly priced) I use pistachios ..very yummy

    Here is a pistachio pesto recipe

    Morning everyone. My first official weigh in with the group. Unfortunately I had a death in the family yesterday. which led me to make some bad choices foodwise. But the worst thing I can do is carry it over to today etc so I won't do that. My family have drove to the parents house yesterday and there was a lot of them there together so hopefully it was a bit more comforting for my mum, dad and sister.

    That’s quite the walk. Well done! Enjoy your walk this morning.

    @aactuallyaash
    Amazing loss! Did you make any changes this week that contributed to that fabulous loss?

    @rwood566
    Great steps! That’s for mentioning Easter. I totally forgot to order desserts from the bakery.

    @roz0810
    I am so sorry for your loss.

    @peng123
    I think a great exercise day is an understatement. Over 2 hours, fantastic! I have always wanted to try Pilates.

    @jayenguk
    Take it one day at a time. Even a minute at a time. Enjoy the gym!

    @roz0810 I'm so sorry for your loss - that's a very difficult thing to go through - kudos to you for saving enough calories for chicken tikka - one of my favorites!
