Leshrew's Diary The ups and the downs

[leshrew]

Ive put the picture on above as my motivator as i hate it so very much, it probably was the one photo that kicked my butt into action, it was taken in America this time last year its amazing what a photo can capture i weighed in at 106kg probably my heaviest weight ever....Am not going back there!!!

 

[autumnbabe]

What about a recent one to so we can see how well you have done.
(where did u visit in America)
I liked your photo x

 

[leshrew]

The most recent one is on my profile pic that was last month, we went for 3 weeks on a road trip around Florida, Miami,cocoa beach, The Keys, Naples, St Augustine etc we hired a dodge avenger massive car only cost about 20 pound to fill it up and we filled it loads of times.

Have decided to have another green day tomorrow as I have soup left over too so am now going through some more recipes

Is it right that pasta,potatoes and rice are unlimited foods? I did sort of limit mine today as I worry about too many carbs Xx

 

[Nanny Doreen]

Yes. Pasta, potatoes and rice are all free food. Eat as much as you like.

Good luck

Well what a morning, had my shopping list in order with different places to visit and lots to get only to wake up to a phone call from a poorly son had been up all night and obviously no matter what age (27) only mum will do which is not like him at all, so a run around the chemists and shops I've just got back from sorting him out is dosed up to the eyeballs and back to sleep now time to get on with housework and the ironing joy joy on the plus side food is still on track Xx

 

[Nanny Doreen]

You are right there. Only Mum will do no matter how old they are. Hope he is well soon,
