Hi, I'm going to come back again if that's OK - the house is a tip and I really really want to get it sorted; if I'm left to my own devices I don't do anything so need a fluffy mule aimed at my backside from time to time!!Flymarkeeteer: £168 and counting0

:j Hello all. Hope you've had a good week. Thanks for last week bossy and for this week Natty
5 weeks now. I feel so much better. I've turned into the Energiser Bunny on speed this weekend (helped by the fact that MIL was popping round this evening). Kitchen has been sparkled so I should manage some of the higher levels tomorrow. DH even helped run the hoover around the ground floor:D
Preparing for DH going away Thursday to Tuesday. It will be the first time I am alone since stopping. I'm lining up lots of meetings in case, and tried the new ones out this week so I will have a familiar face when I go. Lots of phone numbers - and this time I'm actually phoning them rather than ignoring them or just texting. It's getting easier. There are loads of lovely people - one lady gave me a lift home on Wednesday despite it being in the opposite direction from where she lives!:A
(((hugs))) to all. Hope you had a great solstice LW and that you are enjoying your furry friend.Goals - Weight loss 6/26lb at 22nd Jan 18Mmmm. 26lb at 1/7/18. Oops:o0 -

Morning all
Thanks for the lists Natty I am in - still clearing stuff from everywhere it was deposited when we came back on Sat! Two washer loads done and another ready to go.
My priority this a.m. is HHI x as many as needed!!
Iona - I was looking forward to Tues weigh-in after I snook on the scales here at 4.30 a.m as all had disappeared quite magically - however at a normal getting up time I have lost only 2 of the 7 I think I have put on!!! Another very strict day for me then today and I'll hopefully still be within target range - fingers crossed please!!!
Not going to get chance to read back on a week and a half of the threads that I've missed so hugs sticks and spoons to anyone needing them and welcome all newbies.
I want to be a Duracell bunny on speed today too but the mossie bites are making me feel groggy!!
Catch up later. xJuly 16 £95/£200
Nov 16 £0/£200
