    A small improvement of - 1/2 lb this week. I am away on holiday in Finland/Sweden from Saturday so no reading next week. Hope I don't put it back on but it is an active holiday so fingers crossed 🤞

    I returned from my holiday having gained weight from the type of food provided.

    So, after a few days at home with more control on my diet, I have to report a half pound gain.

    I have another holiday starting in the middle of next week and will report in just before I leave.

    Apologies for being awol again.

    I've completely forgotten and lost track of the time.

    I'm +5 pounds as of Wednesday.

    I've managed to get back on the healthier eating at the moment.
