    Morning all xx

    Monday morning weigh in revealed + 1 lb. I've lost my momentum since the wedding. But I'm not finished yet. Shoulders back. Chin up. And breathe....

    Another half a Ib lost for me. 
    I feel like I've reached a good place with my diet at the moment.....although i imagine Christmas will derail me abit!
  • Yet another 1.5lbs on... struggling with lack of a proper kitchen, so I'm just going for the easy option.

    Looking at my weight trends, I definitely put more on at this time of year. I'm just tired, drained and hungry, and want to hide inside vegging instead of getting out for a walk in the cold and rain. I'm taking Vit D hoping it will help! Hoping a lazy weekend will recharge me 🤞
