    There are two camps I think when it comes to stress and weight loss. Either you get stressed and lose your appetite or you get stressed and you eat. I’m the latter unfortunately.

  • Weekend Update

    My in-laws are returning tonight for a few more days, until sometime next week. They stayed with us most of last week then this week have been staying at someone else’s house while they were on holiday. So I’m currently sat here catching up on my web things and eating popcorn. I did manage to…

This week is just strange. I’m kind of avoiding the scale this week. I’m still fighting this darn cold, I’m nearly 100% but…

    I haven’t done my Wednesday Weigh In post yet, but it is coming. I’m fighting a lovely (not) cold at the moment and with Hubby home on holiday from work this week as well my whole routine has gone to pot. So my update is coming, hopefully tonight.

  • Inspiration & Motivation

    If you know me or have visited my blog before you know this: I’m trying to lose weight. It’s my main focus and I write about it a lot. During this journey I’ve discovered others with the same goal. Bloggers writing continuously about our goals, frustrations and victories regarding the scale. I’ve recently come across…
