Hi all,
Checking in for the end of this week. The UK restrictions are easing, but the weather is not playing ball – after a balmy spring day on Easter Sunday, we have had snow showers on and off last week, and again the last couple of days. I have no desire to go rushing off to a pub (outdoors) this week, but we are hoping to meet up outdoors with some family members next weekend. The UK has offered lateral flow tests free to each household to assist with self-testing, so I have a pack and we will self-test the day before seeing any elderly relatives, or before going into the office or on site visits, etc. The recommendation is to test twice-weekly, and we’ve both had our first vaccine a couple of weeks ago, so it is feeling like we may be able to expand our horizons a bit beyond our home.
I am still wading through the book “Why We Get Fat” and it is starting to make sense.
This weekend we had some carbs on Saturday (our one slice of wholemeal sourdough on Saturday morning, a Scotch egg each for lunch and 3 Jersey Royals each with supper. Yesterday it was back to low-carb veg only, and tomorrow we weigh, so I’ll report in. However, some NSV – a size 36 Barbour Border that I bought many years ago (second-hand of course) when I lost weight on WW fits nicely again after not being to zip it up for the last few years, and I have donated my Size 42 one to hubby, as his Size 48 now looks like a tent! And this morning I ran out of holes, in a good way, on my favourite leather belt, so I may be finding the leather punch later this evening.
Have a good start to the week wherever you are, and I’ll see you all on next week’s thread!
