That why I'd put 3 stone on. 3yrs of near constant injury.

The biggest change I made initially was giving up alcohol. Empty cals plus destroys willpower and increases hunger.

Now I do have the occasional drink but much healthier amounts and rarely to excess.

decided that bake off tonight is an excuse to bake - peanut butter and banana cookie dough chilling in the fridge :)

Latex is where they put a self leveling compound over the floor and has to be set so all in all was 6 or 7 hours that couldn't use the conservatory, dining room, living room and hallway. Also put the bathroom and bedrooms out of action as they off the hallway. Today they have been laying the floor, tomorrow it will be over thank gawd.

Have just had rhubarb cake with custard......

I need to shift 3 stone and would like to do by sensible eating but csnt seem to do that....

Mandymoo my motivation was the fact every time I tried to run my Achilles went again. Extra weight wasn’t helping that.

I stopped trying, swam till I lost the first stone, then slowly introduced running again. One I’d lost 2 upped the running more.

I totally get that, and you would think that carrying the extra weight and the stress and strain it puts on my arthritus etc would be enough wouldn't you? Really hoping that now the house is pretty much finished I can get back to looking after me and get back swimming in the pool

I love brandy snaps - we used to make them every Christmas - part of boxing day tea :)

Me too. Grandma used to make too
Sad thing is she’d never bake with me or my sister.

Why can't they just call them jam rings? That's what they are.
