    my calorie burn goal is 500 per day. Missed it on Monday since I burned 400, but yesterday I burned 600 so I guess I evened it out.

    Ok, so this hasn't been my best week. The ear infection really knocked me, then had several nights of night terrors and sleep paralysis due to some stressful stuff to deal with at work and in my personal life. Have physically only just managed to haul myself into work due to fibro pain and anxiety.

    Anyhoo, that's enough of the depressing stuff. The good news this week is that I have been discharged by my psychiatrist! It feels a bit more as if I have my life back again.
    Today I actually had a day to myself. I didn't wake up til 10.45am. Felt so awful that I went back to bed at 12.30pm and slept til 5pm!! I feel a lot better tonight.

    I've logged most days this week and been drinking more water. It's a start :)

    Hi sweetie, I am having similar problems at night and am finding it very hard to keep going. The exercise is keeping me sane though, so i am just rolling with it. It is making it very difficult though! Fybro is bad as a result to and anxiety with having no sleep. Totally understand where your at. Well done on logging and getting food logged. Hope this week is a better one for you..

    Love you lots xxx

    Aargghh.... I just can't fit everything into my days.


    Super busy at work all week. Trying to do the housework in the evenings.
    Was stewarding for the Torch relay today.
    Doing a transport run for the rescue tomorrow- a parakeet, a pigeon and 6 guinea pigs.
    6 mile sponsored walk on Sunday for another rescue (which may just kill me because I'm so unprepared).


    Eating is erratic but not awful. Not getting to log til late, late late... then am too tired (actually tonight I am too drunk... hic).

    Going to bed now.

    Love you all lots. Especially you Zara. You are owning this challenge. xx

    Well, we did our sponsored walk yesterday. Six miles through beautiful but muddy woodland to raise money for a local wildlife hospital. I did it with my friend (11) and her friend (also 11). It took us about 3 and a half hours which wasn't bad considering the conditions and that the girls wanted to stop more frequently than I was hoping. I'm super proud of them though and we raised £160 between us.

    Hope you're all rocking it. xx
