    STS for me this week please. I have no excuse, biscuits came into the house and I ate them!!! Also cooked a roast for Father's Day and I do love a Yorkshire pud! 🤦. I knew it would get harder which is why I joined this challenge! I must try much harder this week as we approach the 2nd half of June.

    Pleased that I can report a 1 lb loss.

    That still only gets me to half a pound less than on 1 April but there's almost two weeks to quarter end.
    (And I have to remember that I've stayed right in the middle of the "healthy BMI" range.)

    So here's wishing everyone a good run up to the quarter's finishing post.
