Wish I'd left my weigh in declaration til today! What with all- fruit Thursday, can't be ar5ed Friday(nightmare day in hospital with dad), followed by a pick- your- own bits from the Christmas food dinner yesterday, somehow I've lost more, how is that possible? (There was a lot of cheese straws/ marzipan fruits/ after eights consumed last night)
Total loss over this challenge is now 2.6 lbs, and I've woken up with a raging sore throat and runny nose, just in time for Christmas- great! Oh well, swings and roundabouts.
Happy Christmas eve everyone x0 -

Merry Christmas all! I might not have reached my target weight, but I couldn't eat my usual big plateful of Christmas dinner so I think my tummy has certainly shrunk

Have a wonderful day and good luck for the next challenge!0 -
I decided that going over today and possibly tomorrow is not the end of the world and I will get back on track on Wednesday!Must use my stash up!0

Got some scales for Christmas, weighed today and the damage seemed to be minimal. It's hard to say exactly what I weighed before because of the different scales used, but I may have STS.
(When I weighed myself last night though it was a completely different story!)Debt Free Stage 1 - Completed 27/08/2020
Debt Free Stage 2 - Completed 50/181 Payments0
