Wow time has flown!

Firstly I want to apologise for not writing on here for ages – time really has flown by, it really doesn’t seem possible so much time has past, life is on fast-forward!

An update on my degree.  Well it’s almost the end of the 2nd year and my exam is on the 10th October, it’s coming up too fast, and I have got a fair bit of revision to do before then.  My assignment scores have been consistent and I’m on track for a 2:1 would be a first if I was at a ‘brick’ uni, but hey I’m doing well 🙂

It’s been the summer holidays, and I have been spending some amazing time with my children – we have completed lots of walks and seen some beautiful scenery.  We have been inspired and filled with love and laughter.

I’ve also started a healthy eating plan, as I am trying to lose some weight.  Over the holidays I have managed to lose almost 9lbs and 19 inches too 🙂  I feel so much better for losing the weight and hoping to lose another stone to bring me to the lower end of my ideal weight range.  This is in the hope that it will continue to reduce the pain in my joints and muscles and that I will have more energy to spend doing the things I love!

A bonus of changing the way I am eating, is that I have become much more aware of portion sizes and I have rekindled my love of cooking.  There have been some interesting (and very yummy) kitchen experiments as well as new favourite fruits and vegetables
