Glad it went brambling, hope you heal quickly and get your appetite back soon.
I've managed to lose 2 pounds.
I've had a busy and unhealthy weekend of an afternoon tea on Saturday lunchtime to raise money for a local homeless charity, pizza at an event Saturday night, someones birthday with lots of nibbles and cake.
I'm away at my church conference next week, so will be unable to weigh in.
Fortunately I'm in the house, so breakfast and main meal should be provided, although probably not the healthiest.
I'm likely to be eating out and out of my routine so I expect my diet won't be as good as I'd like, despite struggling at home to eat healthier.Decluttering campaign 2023

Glad to hear you are home and doing well, I'm sure you will recover quicker in your own bed.
Scales are still playing funny buggers, so half off, was 3lb down last Thursday, the bloat had gone down and now 3/4 off, so half off for me, still I'm not gaining.
Saw a consultant at the hospital, I honestly don't know why they bother, no examination, just a reduction in meds, in and out in 10min, Mr Pepper looked at me, I looked at him and it was a silent, is this a joke look. I did have a list of questions, but they just wanted rid of me.
Rang BUPA when I got home, 2 appointments, they want me to have an urgent Rheumatology consultant appointment, it was all booked, along with another appointment for a different consultant for injury to ankle / foot and ganglion removal in an hour, I'm working through my list one at a time.
Have a good week everyone, looking forward to the sunshine coming back.
