Dearest Brambling I’m sorry but I will withdraw from this quarters challenge as I am just too unwell to manage it. I am in hospital at the moment with covid pneumonia. I very look forward to joining again in the new year. I am still cheering you all along from the sidelines xxxx5

i stood on the scales On Saturday morning and realised just how good the food had been !
However in the spirit of accountability I’ve braved them again today so that

Sorry to hear you're back in hospital Dumpling

SuffolkSue/Sunfl0w3r I hope you both had great breaks and enjoyed every mouthful 🙂 we have to have balance dieting all the time is no fun 🙂
I was a little disappointed with only a 1/2lb loss this week but a couple of sleepless nights thanks to asthma attacks meant two days of stocking up on comfort food to keep awake
