How to start... My period hasn't come in 8 weeks and yet I'm not pregnant. I'm 28, in a non-secure job and single so thankfully am not pregnant I guess. I've never had my period not coming before and it scares me. Once I realised my period... Read more

I'm surprised. I somehow don't believe it but I've finally reached my goal weight of 140 lbs (10 stone). I noticed it yesterday but thought I'd keep quiet in case my weight fluctuated and instead I'm down another lb today, so am now at 138 lbs. ... Read more

Saturday, June 09, 2012      6 comments

I'm a bit annoyed now! Sorry I know I'm ranting but can;t help myself. Need to rant somewhere and I feel I can be the most honest here. Over the last few days I've realised I've neglected my fitness and have been eating a bit unhealthy so ... Read more
