Hahaha oh god, how long you been here for? 😂😂

Gym Tip! When on a treadmill or bike or something like that, hide the time. I did 10 mins on the treadmill the other day and was dying after 5 minutes. Because I could see the time I was thinking "oh god is that all, I've got another 5 mins and I'm already tired". The next time I hid the time with my phone (I just stood it…

It was Marley's 8th birthday on the 13th July, so a couple of weeks ago. But her helium '8' balloon was still going! But it was also getting in the way.. she didn't want to deflate it until we showed her what happens when you inhale it! Me and her dad both did it to show her, she really wanted a go and so did the others.…

@csilverthorn22 Welcome! I think I would have needed a couple of drinks whilst putting up a gazebo!! And Miska is a lovely name for a dog! What breed is he/she? Our dogs called Biggie (after the rapper 😂) and he's a whippet cross.

Oh yeah so goals for today 1) Drink more water, atleast 6! 2) Log all food! 3) No unhealthy snacks! I've got nuts, I've got fruit so theres no excuse!

Need to start logging again, I'm not getting anywhere. I'm not exactly calorie counting anymore, but I am going to do it as a backup. So even if I stray from the diet plan, if I'm still within calories then it should still work? Either way I'm hoping it will keep me more mindful. No gym today. Me and Ash are knackered.…

Have a funny dog story for you all aswell😂 We were all upstairs doing various things, girls in their bedroom watching TV, Ash in the bath, I was speaking to Ash and Casey was downstairs. She then comes upstairs and Ash offers the bath for her as she was getting out and it was still hot. So she jumped in, I've come down the…

Congrats on the BMI achievement!!

That's probably the funniest thing I've read this morning lol! Tricking the dog 😂 but still.. it's genius!

@cschmitz110515 Me and Ash are a bit wobbly on ladders too. It's always me who has to paint over the stairs 😫 It's not even the height, it's just the fear of falling. Probably didn't help that my jokester grandad thought it would be funny to shake the ladders whilst I was on them once! Lifelong fear created 😂

It was leg day at the gym yesterday. And Ash got one of the PTs at the gym to just show me one thing. Which was the hip thrusts with the freeweight bar. I was very grateful because last time I asked they said they couldn't show me but there was a "Learn to Lift" class. But the class is not at a good time for me, I'd never…

Had a bit of a set back today. We've been visiting a supplement shop for our protein and pre-workout and stuff. But the guy who works there used to be a body builder, and won like competitions and stuff. And he has a hell of a lot of knowledge. He also has a machine in his shop that measures a full body composition. So…

Saw the news in the UK about Trump being shot 😬 I know it's a mixed bag over there over whether you hate or love the guy but either way it's still pretty shocking!! Not posted for a while, my diet has slowly crept in some bad habits again. Not as bad as before but it's still not doing me any good!! Had a really busy couple…

Given the situation you're in, don't beat yourself up too much about the calories. Obviously dont go crazy but if you're limited for options when you're starving then it just is what it is! It's not a reflection on you or your goals! So many times we've been out longer than we should have and ended up at McDonald's (not…

You all know how much I love McDonald's. You'll all laugh at this. In the UK at the minute (well it's just ended actually) but there was an event on called "Suprise Fries" so they had a peel off sticker on all the fries. I won these 😂

I had a hair appointment next week that I had to reschedule. So I popped in today to rearrange and they had space today! So my hairs all pretty now :) My hair was horrendously long. All the way down my back. My hairdresser made a comment saying "you should have seen how much we've just swept up 😂" I laughed and said "I…

Two days isn't so bad! Double rest day! Your dinner sounds nice! Salad and steak strips!! Mmmm

Had a very small portion for dinner, just a few pieces of chicken in the curry sauce and half a large naan. So calories may have balanced out (Maybe not with the McDonald's😂) , I haven't actually been logging, just making better choices and I've changed my meals alot. No more brown toast or cereal for breakfast. I now eat…

Went gym again today. Much more confident than when I first started. I know what I need to use and how which is good. The majority of my muscle groups can lift in a range between 25kg to 40kg depending what I'm doing. But I told Ash I wanted to be able to achieve a pull up, and he told me the best place to start was to…

You know I've NEVER had a pedi. Couldn't bear someone to touch my feet 😂 the nails look amazing though I love them!

My lupins have come out great (yellow ones) and the daisy's bloomed a couple of days ago! My favourite is the Knopofia (can't spell it) aka Red Hot Pokers. It took a bit off football damage so didn't know if it would come through but it has!! Hanging baskets are epic lol All thanks to Ash if I'm honest, he's the green…

Wow that's alot of flowers!! Beautiful! Puts mine to shame hahaha

Yeah they took it down. Alot of people weren't happy about it! I wasn't too bothered, I don't really use it!

LOL I did read all of your rant it made me laugh at the end! God that sounds like ALOT of work and I keep putting off just dusting the blinds because I can't be bothered polishing each strip 😂 suppose I shouldn't complain and just get on with it!! And that's deffo a man thing, starting "easy" tasks that turn into mammoth…

Had another gym sesh this morning, really wasn't feeling it, didn't take pre-work out because I felt anxious already and didn't want to feel worse off it because it speeds your heart rate up anyway. But did quite a fair amount! Could of done more with pre-workout but still came out with jelly legs. Just couldn't do as much…

@PackerFanInGB oh my goodness! What are you like!! I hope you feel much better soon, that must have hurt so bad. Lots of hugs for you! Hopefully you'll be on your feet in no time! And maybe get hubby to clean the bathroom next time (great excuse to get out of it 😂) I hate cleaning the bathroom. Well infact, I hate cleaning…

Hahahaha 🤣 Yes much better now! By the time it was like 11pm I had mostly settled and then was STARVING . But there was no way I was risking food, just told myself I wasn't gonna die in the night from not eating and got myself to sleep lol!

@emgracewrites Welcome back! Also glad you are feeling a bit better! _________________ I had avocado and eggs for breakfast today, went to the gym, got back and had a protein shake then we went out for a bit to pick up some new wireless earphones and I got a small cone of chips from the chippy. And since then I've had the…

The UK weather has been so annoying. ALL of May and June (apart from one weekend in May) has been cold and rain every day just on and off on and off. And now it's a friggin heatwave but like... TOO hot. Like you go outside and melt instantly. The gym has Aircon but you barely feel it! 🥵🥵🥵
