  • Hi ladies, back at last after laptop problems. DH has been diagnosed as pre pre-diabetic with his blood sugar quite high. I had this diagnosis 2 years ago but haven't really acted upon it (naughty, I know!). So we have both been following the Fast 800 plan for the last week & I have lost just over 7lbs so far. Final weigh…
  • Good morning ladies I usually skip breakfast, having done so for generally my entire adult life but today I made myself eggs, mushroom, onion, spinach & tomato. It was yummy but need to find something for work days when I am more rushed. Off to do a little shopping now & a BBQ at my sons house so I get to spend time with…

  • Hello gorgeous girls. I'm just popping in before bed. DH continues to make progress after his heart attack but not fast enough for his liking & his cardiac nurse told him off for doing too much too soon. "We give you these instructions for a reason Mr Mundy". He has a scare on Friday night with chest pains but a puff of…
  • Hello gorgeous girls & welcome to new friends. We’ve had rain most of the night so the slugs & snails are out in force. I hope my veggie garden (allotment) isn’t attacked too much. DH continues to improve after his heart attack although he is disappointed he can’t drive for another 3 weeks. I’ve told it is as much for the…
  • Hello lovelies & welcome to new friends. Thank you so much for the good wishes & prayers for DH. I absolutely know they work! He is doing well but frustrated a slow progress & he’s only been home since Thursday! I keep telling him baby steps at the moment. He’s worried he won’t be fit for our New England trip in September.…
  • Hello again lovely ladies. I've had some up & down times of late. We spent some wonderful time in Derbyshire - a beautiful area of England - lots of history.

  • Hello lovely ladies. I'm back (again!). I've been miserable of late after being disappointed by someone close to me, (perhaps I made the pedestal too high?) but have decided to ditch the negativity that was eating me inside & sort out the things I can affect like eating properly & exercising. So resetting everything today…
