    At least you have a plan B and I’m sure it will be a great weekend anyway. We used to go to York a lot for weekends away and Stratford on Avon, love it there too.

    Midweek already and it's a blowy start to Wednesday. The dog was not impressed this morning :) 

    Breakfast, lunch and dinner are from stores today. Breakfast was toast, we have both taken our packed lunches to work, salad box for me again and dinner tonight is garlic chicken with naga rice and vegetables.

    Tonight's jobs are:
    • walking the dog
    • weigh in Wednesday
    • cleaning the kitchen

    It must have been breezy with us again in the night as both the recycling bin and my bike had decided to have a lie down AGAIN! not too bad now though thankfully. 

    if the weather is uncertain then it sounds like it might be best if Plan B is the one anyway - good that you have thigs covered one way or the other though!

    I have somehow lost 3lb this week. 

    Not going to get over excited about it though, it will no doubt all go back on this weekend 🤣🤣🤣

    Well done 🥳 Just shows you don’t need to do anything daft to lose weight just eat less.

    Eat less and move more seems to be working for now.

    I know from last time though the losses get more difficult as the weeks pass.

    Last day at work for us this week. Looks like it will be a busy one.

    Breakfast, lunch and dinner will be from stores. Breakfast was cereals, we have both taken our packed lunches to work, a salad box for me again and dinner tonight is haggis with root veg mash and greens

    Tonights jobs are:
    • walking the dog
    • load of washing
    • vacuuming the house
    • cleaning the bathrooms
    I'm at the hair dressers tonight so the other half has volunteered to cook dinner, vacuum up and sort the washing out. He's not a bad one!
