Well I managed to stay AF last night but it was a struggle. It was such a lovely day that I really wanted to enjoy a glass of wine in the garden! That would be fine if a glass of wine was all but I think I'd have carried on drinking, at least wine with a meal. It is supposed to be warm today too though so I will have that wine tonight!6

Same here Maggie. There's something about the Clapping for the NHS that makes me fancy a drink. But I'm pleased that I managed my 4 'school nights' in a row again. I'm hoping I can keep that up although I might make an exception for Easter Monday.6

Sorry I haven't been around much. Just sooooo busy. Work is busy, housework is full on 'cos we are all in the house, shopping is time consuming and I've been spending a lot of time gardening trying to revive everything with plant food, as there won't be trips to the garden centre for a while.ShaggyxHappy EasterWhat 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.6

Morning all. Happy Easter🐥. The Easter 🐰 hasn’t been but as DS1 works for a well known food manufacturer we have enough chocolate to sink a battleship. I have been busy as have a houseful, so for me the lockdown has made life busier. Add in shopping for neighbours and parents I haven’t had time to do my office work. That’s not the end of the world. Must start getting up earlier next week to fit it all in though. Have joined as a responder too but nothing seems to be needed here on that yet.So after a boozy couple of evenings I had last night af so that’s 5tf please Shaggy. Was reading this morning that if you’re obese it puts your chances up of serious illness with the virus due to increased belly fat pushing your diaphragm up and reducing lung volume. It has made me think. Hmmm 4 stone overweight is not a good place to be right now. They recommend weight loss and getting fit right away to help boost your chances. That’s me on the treadmill tomorrow morning then! Still going to virtual SW meetings but have been shocking due to all the booze and chocolate here. Anyway am going to try to enjoy today in the nice weather.
i hope everyone is well and am sorry for those that have lost or are missing loved ones. Such a worrying time.Total weight lost 6.5/73lbs starting yet again. Afds August 10/15. /8 Sept.4 -
Going to declare early again for tonight so 7/20. I really enjoyed having a glass of wine in the garden this weekend but quite glad to get back to AFness this week. It makes Friday something to look forward to, although to achieve my target I can only have 2 days each weekend until the end of April, so Friday and Saturday or Friday and Sunday. It might help me to recall which day of the week it is as that has been harder with lockdown.Stay safe all.4
