Hi Fed,

I see you've been whizzing about at 100mph as usual

Thanks for the pea advice, I'm really trying to use seeds wherever possible; having seen just how many are in a packet & how long they last for it seems ludicrous to buy plants instead.

I'm impressed that you grow everything in pots too, I keep looking at these wooden troughs with trellis attached that are on offer in argos at the moment ... would be fab for peas.

Great news on having your colours done :j. I had mine done a few years ago & although I dont always stick to what I was told to wear, it has definitely helped me to 'see' which colours are an absolute no.

I also found that using the Body Shape Bible (trinny & susannah) has helped me to discover & more importantly, accept my natural shape & buy clothes that flatter & fit well.

I do tend to stick to these guidelines as the result are immediately visible.

Cant wait to hear how you get on

I'm booked in for Saturday and am looking forward to it - feel a little apprehensive which is usual for me but I am looking forward to it to find out what does suit me and if it goes well I'll be back for an image consultation too

Feeling more lethargic than ever and a bit run down so off to bed in a little while to have an early night before the long revision haul starts. In fact might read a chapter now as a start!

Some good news at last! Physio has nearly repaired the muscle tightness and problems and should only need one more session and I'm ready to go out running again!

Yipee

Just deciding whether to rearrange Sat appt as could do some work on this exam really and then rebook for after - need to do some serious revision over the next few weeks as in 3 weeks time I'll have finished the first year!

Looking forward to doing some exercise as feeling myself widen week by week and feeling more unfit. Not looking forward to the first run which I'm expecting to be quite hard work!

Also can claim back the physio money next week which will be great just in time for some bills

Rearranged colour analysis for later on

Rejoined diet club for some much needed focus on what I'm eating to go alongside exercise

Restarting exercise tomorrow now have go ahead from physio

No more sentences starting with Re -!

Plan is 8 weeks to lost 13lb with exercise 5X per wk

Can I do it again, I think I can and exercise is a combo of running, yoga and dog walking for the first week then may build in some cycling too!

Hello,

good to hear that your physio has been effective :0

dont overdo it at first though although I admire your enthusiasm.

Good combination of exercises there ... do you ever swim ? I love it when on hols in open air pool or sea & it's warm & sunny, doesnt feel quite the same at local pool

Hey Lula thanks for your chirpy comment!

I am looking forward to my first run again after 2 months off. Will do some yoga tomorrow to stretch myself out a bit more then have a go on Sunday for the dreaded first run! I don't usually go swimming even though I do like it here and abroad. Don't fancy the local pool too much unfortunately!

Must stick to my plan tomorrow!

List update
Shopping done - mainly fruit and veg to keep going for next week
Living room cleaned and spare room tidied up
Bedroom next on list to do and then bathroom

Lovely rhubarb chutney made - hoping to use this instead of mango chutney using maincrop rhubarb and a few spices. Looks nice and 1kg rhubarb cost £1.25 in the local shop so a bargain - estimating £2 total cost as had all other ingredients in comes in a 50p per jar plus one jar is mahoosive!

Some rain has finally arrived today! So no gardening as its bucketing down but still warm. will carry on cleaning up then maybe some ironing and then some reading before tea time

Also loaf is on in BM and have updated food diary with todays food

Rhubarb chutney not setting for some reason - looks like might have to reboil it again - will see how it is in the morning

~Right off to find my tea recipe now!
