    Sorry for lagging behind guys, I've hopefully caught up again, please shout if I've messed up.

    i got on the scales for the first time in 7 weeks it wasn't pretty 🫣 Ive wiped my entry on the chart and I'm going to start from today.  I realised today that my kitchen bin is full of wrappers and crisp packets etc all things I shouldn't have been stuffing my face with.  

    Pixie I find as soon as the weather changes I want to eat, I blame it on my body thinking it's going to hibernate over winter.
    A bit late adding mine this week. Unfortunately + a half lb. Hopefully back down next week.
