I’m a Pear/Apple - Part 5. Still going!!

NanKate love Frida Khalo's work. Did you ever see the film about her it was on TV many moons ago ? Glad you had a lovely extended birthday.

Shirley well done lossing the 1 and half pounds. I lost 2 lbs this week. Funny enough since I stopped having lunch don't feel hungry during the day. Shows just having my soup was just habit not hunger. Still have my porridge for breakfast and stew for dinner which I add extra veg and either bulgar wheat,rice or pasta to it . To make up my calories.

Choir started again learning Eleanor Rigby, We built this city, Elastic heart and love story . Have new choir director who I had meet before at a fund raiser for grief counselling for children. She was brilliant.

I really don't know where my days go . Wake every morning at 5 to start taking my tablets next thing I know its bedtime .

Charity I support took my tumble dryer as in 7 years only used it handful of times plus other things. My daughter did 2 tip runs for me . Had already started clearing out my garage just need to finish it ready for when my daughter has time to take me to Care co to get a mobility scooter. Its so I can go to Aldi and go over Rimrose valley. And no doubt go other places . But will still use buses and local trains . Its just I can't walk as far as I did since January last year. When on hol I go to places I want to see but have rests in between.

CocoPops hope the steroid is helping you .

Hope everyone else is well .Don't forget flu and covid jab season . I get flu free but paying £85 for covid one .

Take care everyone one .

Oh yes Whiff jab time, have put it on my todo list….well done losing 2 lbs…..
Not lost any this week.

Got colder this week, haven’t put heating on as yet, won’t be long though…
Have a good one all….

Shirley the covid jab I had on Friday still hurts and slightly red and raised. Never had any problem with covid jab before . The flu one always makes my arm feel dead for a hour and sore for a few days.
But I will still have them every year.

Lost half a pound this week at least its a loss.

Unfortunately did to much on Friday and walked farther than I should so ened up setting my chronic fatigue off. I am an idiot I know my limits but was enjoying myself . So wiped out from Friday. Feeling better today but still going to my sit fit class this afternoon. Because of my HPX I have to do things even when I know I should rest. But its part and parcel of being disabled with it. Others are like me so I know its a normal symptom.

Anyway have a good week pears and keep warm .

Hope you are all well. Lost 1 and half pound this week. Still not having lunch at home but not hungry so found a new eating pattern that works.
Decided to see the difference in weight from 1st January to today . Even with put ones have lost 1st 7 and half pounds. Really surprised myself. Need to keep it up then at Christmas can have more treats than usual.

CocoPops hope the steroids are helping .

Saw in the news they have confiscated a lorry load of counterfeit weight loss injections. Dread to think what they would have contained .

Doing it the hard way is definitely healthier.
Have a good week fruits

Hello Whiff. Yes my son has just sent me the Frida Kahlo film to watch at home as all the times we could go to the Museum wouldn’t suit us.

Our meal is ready must fly.

I can’t make anything in advance. I made a smoothie last week with banana peanut butter yoghurt chia etc. It should have lasted two days but because it was so tasty I couldn’t stop eating it. I can now limit myself to one slice of cake a day but everything else has to be prepared for each meal. Smoothies are concentrated calories and I’ve piled on the pounds in the past so I should have learned my lesson. And anything liquid doesn’t fill me; I have to chew something to feel that I’ve had a meal. Although I can get away with having soup at times; have to be in the right frame of mind, though. I’ve also got to stop breaking my fast with cake and have something savoury. My weight is creeping back up again because being back home I’m not getting any exercise. It’s just the relentless house maintenance.

Well done whiff, a great loss.

Not been on the scales this weekend, we away in Norfolk, eating has gone to pot , back to normal tomorrow.
