What a stunning day today!!
Off to a farm with the kids after Jacobs tennis, looking forward to a picnic & some time topping up my tan lines.
Not going to weigh myself again this week as I'm not sure whats happening but ts creeping up everyday even tho I'm back on induction level carbs!! Hopefully I'll get a nice suprise on Monday instead... just when I was so close to my 3 stone!! I know I had carbs on Monday but in 3 days I've usually wiped those squatters out!!
