    What do we do when we fall? We get up, dust ourselves off and start walking in the right direction again. Perhaps when we fall, it is easy to forget there are people along the way who help us stand and walk with us as we get back on track.

    Morning :hello:

    Still on the wagon - so on 6 AFDs as off yesterday. My weight loss seems to have plateaued :think: Must try harder....

    Hope you all had a great weekend. Wednesday already :j

    You're doing brilliantly shaggy.


    You know I'm a huge convert to SW. Why not take a look at the 7 day online menu. Or a tip we use to kick start weightloss is to have two thirds of meals made up of fruit and veg.


    Sorry to hear you've problems arsenalbarnie. Well done for getting on the wagon.


    Alex, you are conspicuous by your absence!


    I'm not sure about today, plans a bit uncertain. Back later.

    3/20 AFDs tonight thanks. Went for a gentle run tonight with a group of beginners, they were a friendly lot, so I'll make it a regular Monday evening event. That was after walking for 3 hours this morning along the coastal path. I should sleep well tonight.

    Sounds wonderful! :)

    5/14 please went for a walk tonight to stave off cravings. It worked!

    Felt very wound up after work. It prompted an argument with ds2 but I managed to walk out before I got too heated.

    I'm going out to supper tomorrow so I'm sure I will tipple a glass but I think I'm still on course.

    Kind regards
    Slowdown :)
