    You’re doing really well still getting the steps in but don’t feel guilty if you don’t feel up to it. Not that I can talk as I still tried to exercise with my leg in plaster 🙄

    Thanks SA I told myself from the beginning if I can lose a pound a week I will be happy let’s hope I forget to say I’ve also set myself a little fun pot up for when things get back to normal whatever that will be not a lot but just bits and bobs so when I meet up with friends there will be money in the kitty for coffees lunch and bus fares just so I’m not taking it out of weekly money and thinking should I or should I call it of and do it another time anyway I’m saving money on haircuts if I was to be invited anywhere now I would frighten the life out of everyone 😂
