Hurray! We’re off to London this week ?

The past couple of weeks have been a little stressful but I managed to get last weeks 2.5lb gain off plus almost a lb more so I’m happy. I just want this to be a ‘normal’ week - no hospital appointments, worries or stressing over weight. I know my weight will go up but so what? We’re having a mini-break in a posh hotel, just the 2 of us. It can give us some badly needed time together where we’re just us, no work stresses (hubby) or health concerns etc. I think sometimes we lose sight of ourselves as an actual person and not a collection of ailments and anxieties over different things.

Clothes are out and ready to be packed. I’ve tried to go outside my comfort zone a little and not just take the fat woman’s uniform of leggings and tops! I’m not taking dresses or skirts, purely because I haven’t managed to perfect getting on and off my scooter in a semi-ladylike way without flashing my wares to unsuspecting passers-by ? I have tried for a more dressier wardrobe so we will see.

Nails to paint this afternoon and then hairdressers tomorrow. It’s nice to have that bit of a pamper (which we all deserve) I did manage toenails yesterday without making a complete hash of it so I will take that as a NSV as I was actually able to reach them, for once!

Have a thoroughly wonderful week everyone.

Onwards & Downwards!!

I saw them supporting Robbie Williams in Dublin a few years ago and they were really good, took me back years.

They’re really good, and same - their music just takes me back to my late teens. Second time seeing them, 1st time was in Birmingham a couple of years ago. I danced non-stop for 2 hours straight and I wasn’t the only one ? It will be chair dancing this time but will be just as enthusiastic!

Off to see The Pet Shop Boys! I’m a massive fan and it’s the final week of their world tour with a special 5 nights finale at the ROH. Whilst we’ve had a wander around Covent Garden previously, we’ve never been to the ROH so a whole new experience just for that alone ?

OMG! Have sooooo much fun. My BF plays them at some point during EVERY road trip ?

Ooo so exciting! I bet you are going to have the most amazing time!

Congratulations on your NSW and the loss also ❤️

I fully understand the struggle in trying to stop wearing leggings and a top ? Like...what do people wear? ?

Have an amazing time

Lol funny, I refused to wear leggings before WLS having seen too many obese women wear them and thinking why, I didn't like my fat rolls why would I encase them in sausage casing for all to see??! Now its pretty much all I wear!
