grateful that,after one missed fast,a few meals out due to visitors/ birthdays and various other little treats,again due to vs and bs,I know that tomorrow i will be back on track
First time ever that i haven't become despondent and totally given up because i've " ruined" some diet or other
Love how differently i see things now and grateful that 5:2 came to my attention,and then this forum did! So grateful for all the knowledge and experiences shared on here x

I am grateful for all the quirks of serendipity that brought me to this place....unbelievable: and thank you everyone for being here.

First of all - my kids. Yeah, sounds corny but you know they came to me(us) by divine intervention and even though they did have a shitty start in life, they have risen above it all and developed into great young men. Young ones who is starting to face the fact they are of dual nationality and be OK with it.

Secondly - that me and The DH are lucky enough to be able to eat what we want, drink what tastes good and can both peruse our hobbies and - get the youngest a studying coach for the troublesome math

Third - I am (most of the times) grateful for The DH as well

Fourth - for my quilting cyber friends over there.

Fifth - that the Swedish cross country ski teams won the relay in the Olympics - bit women and men. Looooooong time since that happened

And not fitting into any number above cause your friendship is invaluable - you guys!!!

Hi @CandiceMarie, yes you are right. I've been busy with new job and selling my dads house and renovating our house. I've still been reading the forum everyday if even for 5 minutes as I love it so much but haven't been able to contribute so much. Thanks for noticing. You're a sweetie. Xxx
