    Jenny I can't see it's harming anything if you add it too the log, maybe phasing it a little different but noise pollution will affect your mental and physical well-being

    Hello

    Weigh-day -0.5lb please Brambling.

    It’s been a good week with sensible amounts of chocolate.
    This week I’ll focus on balance and be mindful of carb consumption.

    Oops -1 lb last week please 
    I’m away at present so won’t be weighing again until the 25 th 
  • Long overdue update. So overall, from my starting weight I have lost a total of 3lbs so far. With two weeks left of this quarter, and the sun being out, I'm really going to make an effort to drop another couple of pounds before the end of the month. I will focus on eating healthy lower carb meals, moving more and trying not to glug lots of nice wine. 
    Hope everyone has a great weekend to look forward to! I'm hoping to get out in the garden and burn some calories prepping beds etc.
