It’s easier to do when there are two of us doing it. As Saturday draws nearer, I’m starting to panic a bit but it’s 56 days to hopefully help improve my life. Last time being able to reduce my daily meds by three gave me such a boost.Yesterday I ran between clients and got done what was needed though there remains a mountain to climb as always. I need to get motoring now.
today I am grateful for

I found that focusing on my progress through 56 days helped. I’m nervous while dh claims to be looking forward to it. As usual, there is no help from my gp who doesn’t support this program. For him it’s about doing what the consultant says so he doesn’t have to make a decision. Unfortunately my three month review is considerably overdue and unlikely to happen any time soon.Yesterday I broke the back of payroll with just two queries remaining. Today’s job is finding two people to sign the cheques. I am also meeting a different client today. It’s supposed to be for breakfast but I forgot and have just had breakfast.Me and my pillows are getting on a bit better which helps with getting a good night’s sleep. This makes everything better. Yesterday some of the stuff I ordered arrived. Unfortunately six of the eight plates were broken so that’s a job for today.Right, need to get going. Today I am grateful for
achieving my sb target already, I’m on day 20 and determined to at least hit 21 days
a good night’s sleep

I definitely couldn't survive on so few calories a day and exercise as well! I'll stick with Slimming World, it works for me.

So so true SSG. Well, all I can say is TGIF. It’s been a tough week and I’m hoping to have the weekend to regroup. Yesterday’s crisis was being unable to get sufficient signatories to sign off on the salary cheques. I got home around half eight. I just want to get through today and will also hopefully have a cheque signed for me.I am providing a taxi service for our part time chef so need to get going. Today I am grateful for
having my 21 day sb target in my sights
a productive meeting
