Two and a Half...

So I have dropped two and a half stone. Two dress sizes.

Theres a way to go still with some of this stuff but if I'm honest I am pretty chuffed with where this is all going. I feel better, my allergies are subsiding, I can exercise without pain for the first time in years..

But there are some weirdnesses. People look at you differently. Like quite seriously differently. I find that to be a bit strange. Not necessarily bad, but strange nonetheless.

Watch this space for how this might all pan out. Two pounds to the next big goal then just five more for the three stone target!

They joined as an act of patriotism, tinged yes with fear, but also a sense that it might be the right thing to do. They joined from across the country- but at the heart of the front line forces were thousands and ten of thousands...

Remembering What I Enjoy..

Occasionally I forget things. Some stuff like birthdays, names and stuff is a normal human thing, and I don't sweat it so much. But I also forget some other stuff which is not so good. I forget what I enjoy. I don't know how it happens but it does from time to time. And its at these moments that I need a bit of help remembering. So- this is a request for help. What do I enjoy doing? What gives me joy? Leave me a comment.
