Looks like i have overdone it a little.Fatigued to hell busy weekend .Sun Did excursion with Ian to Beamish son in law picked us up there so saw all 11 grandchildren
Sun was very hot on coach slept on way back'Mon bank holiday scenic Heartbeat country(yorkshire television ) still hot early start Ian needed to be in at 6am and igts easier if i go in with him than walk to village to pick up later.Good day out got pic's of long nose volvo(i love trucks)at whitby where film dracula was made.shared fish and chips with Ian only bought small portion between us as neither really eats fried food.Whitby fish is very tasty and people travel miles for it.
Yesterday back in Yorkshire dales this time in car Ians day off visited settle market,watershed mill shop then up to ribblesdale trainspotting.ended up having to crash out on back seat.
This morning so tired and aching sun hot 46' was going to strim lawn but couldn't even lift my cereal bowl.went for 30 min walk.did housework that i could manage, sofa has been my best friend all day.Still shattered at 6pm Ian wont be back till 10pm so Sue over road is helping me shower and to be.Hopefully tomorrow will be better.
I get fatigued a lot as i don't like the brightness in the sun or being to warm.
Thinking of putting esmarelda sheep on lawn but she eats everything in sight so i will have no rosebushes or plants she will eat them all. Off to bed shortly bye

56 today, still overweight. not depressed about it now thank to all my friends here on SP
Had a busy week only been home 1 day till today.done about 20 mile this week ate properly mostly salad fruit veg . It has been so warm my feet are swollen i feel bloated and fatigued.Retaining fluid by the gallon,weigh in tomorrow will it show a gain? I have been losing at 1lb a week .I know we shouln't grumble about the sunshine but it is only april temps are about 10' above normal.
We have had 20-25' nearly every day this week so government will be putting a hose ban on soon
Ian bought me a new camera to keep in my bag instead of carrying big one as phone doesn't take very good pic's also another pedometer this one you can wear round your neck. so it doesn't fall off waistband like clip ones, maybe they should make them with a brooch clip to pin on instead.
Sun is out again going in greenhouse to put ready for tomato plants .Tomorow going to visit kids as Ian is taking a coach party to beamish museum and the kids only live a couple of mile from there Got 2 easter eggs and gave them away. washing machine beeping back to work lol Have a good weekend all

sorry about your fluid retention, I just drank LOADS of water (about 3l) and the usual cups of tea throughout the day but I'm sure it was because the temperature went down and we had a light shower after lunch. Hope you get some relief soon best wishes, Sandra Report Inappropriate Comment

Thanks for leaving your comments on my page. You manage a lot more exercise than I do and there's no excuse! Just lazy. Keep up the good work. As you say we mustn't quit, once you learn to quit it becomes a habit. Apparently micky rooney said 'you always pass failure on your way to sucess' Report Inappropriate Comment

Post a picture of your new "do" (haircut). I also used to have hair to my waist but now days I keep it cut pretty short. I just recently decided to stop coloring it. I have colored my hair since I was 17. I colored it a auborn (med. red). I have always loved red hair. My dh when younger had sandy hair but a bright dark red beard. I loved it. My little granddaughter (16) has beautiful red hair but her mom lets her dye it now jet black. Ugh...... Frankly, I don't know what color it will be when it gets all grown out (lots of grey) LOL. My dh hasn't decided IF he really wants me to stop with the color. But, I guess I just need to see for myself. :o). Might go back to the color. LOL. Congrats on your weight loss. Every pound counts!
