I've been away for a bit and just catching up, it's sts for me this week unfortunately but not a surprise to be honest. Still happy with my progress and I will continue with the next quarter too.3

Having been ill (again!) for a couple of weeks I’m reporting STS for the last week of this quarter. Sadly I didn’t hit my target this month, but I’ve lost something and not put on so I’m taking that as a win. This thread has been great, thank you.4

STS for me.
Diary for neighbour noise has ended, I think the anxiety / stress of having to do this has had an effect on me, hopefully the lighter nights will have a positive effect.
I will take things easy for the next few days and then make a serious effort for the holiday for the next quarter... gin and ice cream again.
Have a good week everyone, we all deserve a slap on the back for getting this far.

Sorry +2lb from me this week, it's all gone a bit pear shaped this quarter but looking forwards to a fresh start after a good talking to 😬'You have brains in your head. You have feet in your shoes. You can steer yourself any direction you choose' - Dr Suess
