@timibotkin what a lovely space you have for you gardens. What are you growing? @nstephenson01 love your garden as well - your raised beds are immaculate! One of my allotments has raised beds (not quite as high though), initially built in 2008/9. Each year now we have to rebuild parts. Hoping my other half will rebuild the…

User ID: Freeglerock Week Number: 4 Previous weight: 186.9 Current weight: 185.7 Morning all. Been an incredibly busy week, work has been full, as has allotment with getting bed repaired and plants in the ground. Friday evening I went for a socially distant drink with my neighbour - 8 hours later, way too much wine drunk,…

User ID: Freeglerock Week Number: 3 Previous weight: 190.0 Current weight: 186.9 Think a good portion of that belongs to last week! And glad I didn't ruin it last night. Last week I committed to 3 things (logging everything, exercising 30min 5x and posting here everyday) - and it worked to keep me on the straight and…

Thank you @nstephenson01 and @GingerPwr. The process of writing it down really helped. As did your responses. After writing the post, I went and said goodnight to the kids. Ben wanted me to read to him, so spent 15 minute reading "You wouldn't want to live without.... Poo!" Lovely factual, bedtime reading! (I miss reading…

Evening all. Feeling rather deflated at the moment. Today has been incredibly frustrating and has just kind of got to me. Really had to focus in getting some "work" work done, but juggling the kids with it today was impossible. And my son really did not want to do his school work. His teacher had set an interesting…

@xX_PhoenixRising_Xx it is scary to think that you were not even in the healthy BMI range in your "thin" photo. In my head I have top end healthy BMI as being my goal, but may rethink this! Thank you for sharing. Glad your recovery has gone well, and you most definitely have a great attitude to weight loss now.

Check in: Fri 15th Food: logged and under Water: ok Exercise: 90min cycle ride Spent most of Friday in the garden/greenhouse moving things out of the greenhouse, to transition to the allotment now it looks like the risk of frost has passed.

User ID: Freeglerock Week Number: 2 Previous weight: 189.8 Current weight: 190.0 I gained 0.2lb. I'm finding consistency hard - I have a week of eating well, and then something will start to creep in! This past week it has been alcohol. I have been enjoying a couple of glasses (or a bottle) of sparkling wine in the…

Checking in! (For last few days) Food: Have been on plan since Sunday Water: not great, but am getting better at having a water bottle nearby Exercise: yesterday was a rest day other than a walk with the kids.

User ID: Freeglerock Week Number: 1 Previous weight: 192.7 Current weight: 189.8 Hairy moment midway through when a Chinese takeaway caused me to gain over 5 lbs - but that went in 2 days, and then I lost a little more :-) Been skirting around the 190lb mark for a while now, but I think this is the first official Wednesday…

Saturday check-in Food - good until dinner Water - didn't track Exercise - none, other than gardening Been really focused all week. Eating well and getting exercise in. Yesterday started off well.

@tryingagain5 I feel your pain - this year so far has been lose, gain, lose, gain. Always the same 5/6 pounds! A new month is a good time to refocus and get fully back in the game :-) @Cafelelia sorry, I did not realise you had been unwell - so pleased you are feeling somewhat better, and well done on the hike! Take care…
