Aww great day, lots of exercise and yummy food, really need to invest in an activfry! how you getting on with toning beds and does anyone know roughly how much they cost now x

Thanks Cas - definitely worth investing I bought the Breville one from argos its reduced by £60 so about £90 I think. Toning beds are fun - been bumping into all sorts of people some from work that sent me into a major panic. We have paid £45 for a months usage - normally cost £3.50 per session - we are trying to go every day

I am coming to our house for tea x

No problem - I will get the actifry ready xxx

Hope you day is good the sun is out here so I am hoping that will help
I am off to the docs soon and will walk as a walk in the sun might be good for me
are you getting out and about today of is it a day in
meal looked lovely

Hi H - its a beautiful day here - didn't get a chance to get on earlier as the oven repair man was due - he turned up 1/2 hr late - he fixed the oven - asked me to try it and it instantly broke - the new thermostat caused the selector to blow - thank god he had one - so we now have a working oven ... but hey ho - the fridge freezer fan is on its way out - thankfully oven man can get new part and install so fingers crossed the fan won't break before he can get another as freezer is jam packed!!!

So I was 20 mins late to toning beds but still managed to get my full 70 min session, got home, quick bowl of soup and then I took advantage of the oven being pulled away from the wall and attacked it with some serious elbow grease.

Once Paul and kids were home we did a tesco shop, unpacked - dinner, played couple of games with Noah and then bath and bed - have been sleep training Noah as he has come a regular feature in our bed - day 4 today and only took me 2 books and 10 minutes to settle him

The kids are off to in laws tomorrow until sunday (woo hoo). My stepdad has treated me, mum and sis to see Birds of a Feather at a local theatre tomorrow - am working myself up into a frenzy just thinking about it!!!

Hi Donna hope you are ok not sleeping is the worse feeling ever, I have been using hypnotherapy apps on my I phone there are a lot of free ones on there and they do help sometimes, if I am super anxious they don't buy sometimes just help me to drift back off to sleep x

In the apps just put in hypnosis and loads of free ones come up there are weight loss ones less stress stop smoking etc they are all good I just put them on as I lay in bed they turn themselves off when finished I leave my earphones under my pillow and if I wake up in the night I just stick them back in for anouther session and it has helped me

[donnajt]

I know why I felt so horrid yesterday and had problems sleeping - I forgot my meds yesterday - of all the stupid things to do!!!!

 

[Aaleigha]

somewhere you asked me how much sleep I was surviving on I am having about 5-5.5 hours a night and refusing to sleep in the day - I just cant sleep right through the night and wake early - getting to sleep is not my problem

you can do simple self hypnosis without listening to it = look up breathing meditation

also you can do a type of creative visualisation but do it on a day that you remember as being good - start remembering that day and its feelings from the moment you awoke on that day and everything you did that will help you to sleep with happy thoughts you can do it during the day too if you can get sometime to yourself - it does help to lift the mood slightly
