Hey all, not been regularly posting for ages. The summer holidays was busy with the kids. It was the first summer that we had all 3 kids for the WHOLE summer. Usually either my parents or his would have them for a few days so they could see them and we could have a break and stuff but me and ash are in a much better place…

Personally I think you've done the right thing. And you shouldn't feel bad about putting yourself first and avoiding someone slightly toxic (especially when everyone else is letting her get away with it) I mean, I too am a people pleaser. But I always assess my needs first before I decide to help. That might sound selfish…

What a lovely comment, couldn't agree more x

Yes it's not the first time. Where we lived previously it was a predominantly white area. There was maybe one or two black/again kids in her class. But when we moved to where we are now the classroom was very multicultural. I think she was only five? But she said "I don't want to play with the brown girls".. to the…

I had a notification from MFP today. It said "7 years of My Fitness Pal. Your commitment has lasted longer than most marriages." 😂Awkwaaaard. Anyway, took the kids to the museum today. It was good but i got really annoyed when I found out that you had to pay for the exhibition I wanted to take the kids to. (The digestive…

Yes, but also no. I find I spend a lot of time making a super detailed list or "plan" of what I'm doing and I don't spend much time doing the actual things I've listed And sometimes my partner can be like "okay today we need to do this, this and this and then later on we will do this".... And then I get overwhelmed because…

That must be a nightmare. Sorry you have to go through this to figure out what's causing the problems. I hope they find out what's going on soon!

Hey everyone The sun is back in England. The whole of July was a write off for nice weather, it mostly rained. But now the sun's back and in a typical English-weather fashion it's now too freaking hot. Everyone's hot, everyone's sticky, everyone's in some ratty mood. I've got to go food shopping today 😭 and I wish I had…

Oh no, I'm so sorry :(

Hey everyone! Sorry I've not been on! Kids started the summer holidays and any time I get to myself is.. you know.. gone. 😂 Feel like I've been busy but it's.more like my brains been busy and in reality my body's not getting that much done 😂 I feel stressed though, hopefully having my new flooring put down this weekend.…

@pridesabtch So sorry to hear about your friend after the lovely time you had together. How are you? Are you okay?

Morning everyone (well it's morning here!) Hope you're all well. Really want to get back into logging again. I know I'm doing sort of okay but I can't know for sure without logging. I know that I'm snacking more rather than eating proper meals. So today Im.up, showered, kids are at school and I've just had some breakfast…

@Snowflake1968 Yeah I'm glad it's settled down too. Although the ex friend is still going round telling everyone. My friend Kirsty today told me that someone had asked about it because they had "heard we had an argument" and straight away they told her that it was the ex-friend who told them. She thought it would annoy me…

@PackerFanInGB Yeah it was a lot of drama but good news is today the neighbours kids ball came over, I threw it back straight away and she was actually nice to me and told her kids to say thank you. So thats ended. And as for the ex-friend I dont Think she's gonna bother me again. I'm not even going into the town centre…

Yes it's totally fine to make new posts every day. But to add to the post you can click the "quote" button and it will show up in the text box. This is also the way to reply to others specific posts :)

Just For Today :)

Haha that's spot on! And no not family as such. My ex friend has just been causing a lot of grief. Clearly not happy that the friendship ended but at the end of the day she was always bad mouthing my partner and I couldn't ignore it anymore. So I ended it. Then since that in January I've just had nothing but dirty looks…

So I've been completely off the rails the last couple of weeks. Not just with diet and exercise but with life in general. I've definitely had too many energy drinks the last couple of weeks, leaving me feeling manic and not eating properly. I've also had low level drama going on around me for weeks and we had enough so me…

Haha god I'm still like that now. Soon as I've finished I'm like okayyyy time to go.

Okay well if your OCD needs to 'know' ... Then surely by doing nothing your OCD KNOWS that youre not gonna lose any weight. Come on man! You CAN do this! It seems twisted in your mind! Of course it's going to work! And maybe not in an instant but you need to learn that this change didn't happen overnight and it won't…

Feel like I've been messing up the last few days. Night time snacking creeping in over the last 3 maybe 4 days. And I'm tired again, ALL the time. Except I'm taking my thyroxine? I've got a blood test in a couple of weeks for that, can't really do much until I get my results because if my levels are fine then I know…

Here's an update from me, not really been tracking food as much, but been generally mindful of what I'm eating. It's not like I don't know the difference between fruit and crisps. I'm just making better choices, not all the time, but most the time. I started a 30-day butt workout app. Every 3 days of exercise you get a…

We avoid walking Biggie in the heat too. We went to Ash's parents for 5 days a couple of weeks ago. And even though we didn't walk him in the heat, we ended up not walking him at all because he managed to burn his feet on a patch of laminate flooring when the sun came in through her patio windows. They looked bad so got…

Haha i like the videos you don't like. The ones with music But I do dance cardio. I can't do the ones with no sound and just the movements. But I'm easily distracted and if my brain feels bored I find it harder to do. The music stimulates my brain abd I concentrate better on what I'm doing lol!

This is brilliant! There might not be a ceremony (that bit made me laugh 😂) but you have all our encouragement and I, for one, am proud of you! Keep it up!!

You don't know how good it is to hear from you! Glad you found another app to kick start your journey again! It's nice to have something new to focus on so I get where you're coming from And ONLY 10 lbs? Only?! What do you mean "Only"?! That's amazing, you've done really well and you should be proud x

Well done! And don't knock yourself about not going as fast as you used to, I can't even do a 10k I'm far too unfit for that kind of commitment 🤣

Don't be sorry :) Thank you for being here too!

Yay congratulations!!!
