Fingers crossed all goes smoothly. Definitely focus on the weigh-in after!
Speaking of stamps, reminder to all that non-barcode stamps have to be used by end of this month, though I only just saw that doesn't include special picture/Christmas stamps.
You can trade in old ones by filling in and sending off (freepost) a form. I did wonder if I'd bother to do it for just a few but then remembered how much stamps cost these days!

Hi, thanks for your comments. I'm just popping on here to give a quick wave. Am ok, but just don't have anything very interesting to say at the moment.
Enjoy the last of the weekend,

Hope you've not felt too rubbish with the Extreme Dieting (coming to Channel 5 this season).
Hopefully it's not too odd for a stranger to say they're thinking of you and have their fingers crossed everything goes very well indeed. These things are scary but for the best and lots of people around the country are sending good vibes your wayhttps://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/discussion/6466032/an-in-between-phase

Thinking of you foxgloves, and hoping that the Universe is sending positive vibes in your direction. XI Believe.....
That it isn't always enough, to be forgiven by others.
Sometimes, you have to learn to forgive yourself.
Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery
Today is a gift. That's why it is called the present.
happiness isn't achieved by getting extra things,
but by getting rid of the things that make you unhappy7 -
Wishing you well for today xx7
