I’ve done two things on list being church and my food shopping; got some great fresh veg soup mixes and noodles and salad. 😊 going to make both soups this pm so all ready for the week. Lana - LOVE your ARC card !!! Going to do one for me.…

Well now back in UK and going to set myself a productive day as just weighed myself and I’m the heaviest I’ve ever been at 198lbs. So rather than wallow in self pity I’m going to get active and positive as follows: 1,do some exercise - walk for an hour and 15 mins on static bike 2, if weather good do some gardening 3…

Dawn - I agree with Sara - don’t waste energy on trying to to figure out why relatives are rubbish. Just not worth your time. I just think ‘go to hell’ and move on. I know when I’ve done my bit. They’ll get judged at the end, don’t worry! I know what you mean when you think you’re still young then get hit with things that…

Great job space5. It’s a step at a time and always looking forward ♥️♥️

I’m not going to touch chocolate or biscuits and instead I’ve found quinoa easy to cook so going to go on a mission to eat salad instead xx

Hi Lynn Hope you’re well. Yes I’m so bad st comfort eating I’m trying to find other ways instead. ❤️we have to be kind to ourselves. xx

Read a bit of a book 5. Have a drink 6. Have a foot spa 7. Call a friend 8. Write a thankful list for the day 9. Write a letter…

I managed to use my water bottle today! Got my half day water consumption in. Didn’t manage whole day but it’s a start! Also serially restarting my exercise regime today. My train is cancelled but I will still commit to where I get home however late that might now be, going on the exercise bike for 15 mins and doing the 7…
