Ladies I loved catching up on all your posts! I did reply but lost what I had written (This seems to happen often, especially when I scroll up to read your post and reply...I'm not tech-savvy) I can so relate to fat-shaming and sabotaging yourself. I've had a hate relationship with my body and self-image since I was a…

@CupcakeCrusoe I'm so glad your baby is happier and not suffering so much! What a hard week for you. I need to start being more goal orientated, I feel like I'm suffering from a covid hangover!

@orangequilt Yes I'm in East London, RSA

Drank a lot of water, lots of exercise. I…

@micwrites Sounds and looks idyllic <3 Great pledge, enjoy the rest of your break, and goodluck with your hamstring!

@chupacabragumbo Great loss for the week! I think your body breaks down fish quicker, I ate fish on Saturday and Sunday and had a much better loss today! Sadly fish is really expensive here, crazy because I live on the coast.

@pamiede Thanks for the workout, will try it later x

Your weekly planning is amazing! Your meals are so exciting! Because there is just me and my son I tend to just plan on the day in the am. Today I'm making a batch of sourdough wraps (I make 10 at a time) so we will be having spicy chicken wraps, I make a yoghurt coleslaw Asian style to go on top!

@grandrory Awesome you are under 200! Love setting mini-goals, they are so achievable!

@orangequilt Goodluck with your week ahead!

@micwrites Sending love your way, someone told me once in life you are either entering a storm, in the middle of a storm or leaving a storm. This year seems to have highlighted that analogy more than ever. As a mother it must be so hard to see your daughter battle with depression, I'm glad you are back with us x

On the advice of a friend, I drank the same amount of water daily. Oh, I've just realised I'm into the 170s, Yay!

@speyerj Great loss! Loving all your activity, are you rowing on a river? (Rowing is big where I live, both on the sea and river) I've only been in a canoe, my son rowed in a quad at school, its a great sport!

Hi! I've just read your story, you have really had to deal with so much! I applaud you for making the decision to take control of your health! Limiting your calorie intake with healthy whole foods, works! And the exercise helps with everything else, physical and mental health. This is a great community for support and…

@grandrory Thanks! I've got the Blaze, its already four years old, but I absolutely love it and you can link it to fitness pal, I think 5lbs a month is a really realistic goal, looking forward to follow your journey!

I'm breaking up my weight loss journey into 30-day challenges, I've just completed my 5th month and went down 4,1kgs (9.02 lbs) my total loss for 5 months is -23.1Kgs -50.62lbs. I'm walking 7 days a week 45 mins a day and eating 1400 calories (but always below) and I'm intermittent fasting. Drinking 2 litres of water a…

Did a lovely walk through a beach village close to where I live, I am loving our hikes and nature. So not everything has been bad in 2020!

@wanderinglight Well done on your loss! I get what you mean about doomsdayscrolling I also do it, sometimes without even realizing it! And FB is really awful! And by the way another great swimming top!

@speyerj Great loss Jane, you are doing a lot of exercise, 20 000 steps a day is amazing!

@orangequilt Great loss! You should definitely take it! @brownsugar174 Well done on the yard work! That's some calorie burn! I love the fact that you halved your burger and tots, and then just ate small portions later and had a great loss! That's how I want to be eventually once I've lost a lot more!

I will really watch the type of calories I'm eating, was good with water so…

@lucerne2 I've just read your post, what happened to you is awful! The fact that you survived such a violent attack is testimony to your strength! I hope you have a support system around you that you can turn to. I'm really sorry that you have had such a terrible experience sending hugs your way xoxo

@svm569 Welcome back!! We are also heading out of winter, Spring is 1st September although we have had a stunning weekend, no wind and hot days so our beaches were full of families and surfers.

@KeriA Glad, you got out and socialized, pity about the drunk chap, sadly booze can really make us do things we wouldn't normally do!! Look at our country our government has had to ban the sale of alcohol AGAIN because of how people behave under the influence, its NUTS!!!

@rhsdancer5 I started intermittent fasting on 16 March 2020, I eat between 12pm-8pm and only drink tea/coffee/water the rest of the time. The first few weeks were hard, but it works for me, I count calories and log my food daily, I try not snack, so only lunch and dinner.

@cosafe1 I'm also a walker, I've just been using my fitbit, Strava is big here. When I can't go on the road for a walk I use the Lesley Sansome utube walks, and really enjoy them.

@speyerj I have lots of friends who are teachers and are suffering from burn-out. Our government schools have been shut down again due to the unions as well as COVID surge. My son goes to a boy's school he is in grade 10, during lock-down they were online, and since beginning June different grades started returning, my son…

@wanderinglight love your secret gym story! Well done for remembering why you were doing this...to get stronger!! Yip at 49 losing weight and exercising has a different feel to it, it's about being comfortable with your skin and finally making the right choices for yourself! @speyerj Yes, we are too much in our heads!…
