Yes I’ll be on that too plus the Zumba at 6pm which is my favourite by far 💃 The boot camp on Sunday nights is brilliant for motivation if you haven’t watched that one yet.I get knocked down but I get up again (Chumbawamba, Tubthumping)2

I have done the bootcamp one.
Lovely Sunshine here at the moment. My plan is to take my charity shop stuff to the shop today and buy some 50p books from another charity shop. This will gain me some steps.
OH picked up a free loaf of bread and free grapes from the Lidl app.
Also got a load of towels on ,so I can hang them out when I get home.

Went too see my mom in NH this morning, it is her birthday tomorrow. My mom recognised myself and my OH, sometimes she does not, but today was a good visit.
Came home and as Summer is visiting today, I took advantage and sat out in the sunshine for a while.
Having tea soon and then I will watch the BGT final.
Back to work tomorrow, that was a quick week.
Hope everyone has had a good weekend.I am a Senior Ambassador on the Competitions Time Board and the Old Style MoneySaving Board.

Been a while since I have posted on here:
Really pleased I joined WW. I have lost 15lbs so far. Feel so happy to fit into my clothes. Also I do not get breathless when walking.
I use Iceland every week to get my 10% off.
I have treated myself to a ticket to the Good Food Show in November. I subscribed to the magazine, and so I got a ticket reduction and get free entry into the subscribers lounge.
We have started going to the cinema . Saw Beetlejuice Beetlejuice the other week .
Next week we are going to see Joker. I got a discount for these tickets as I work at a school . It is called Discount for Teachers. I am not a teacher, but anyone who works at a school can join.
Hope everyone is keeping well. I am not looking forward to Autumn/Winter, I much prefer the warmer weather.I am a Senior Ambassador on the Competitions Time Board and the Old Style MoneySaving Board.
