Sunshine and smiles

Hello there ~ Thank you all for your kind words after my small fainting experience!
Just to let you know ~ I did not hurt myself ~ I managed to do my favourite trick and slide down the wall ~ so no damage done ha ha !!
I am fine now ~ and am still determined to give it another go ~ sometime!

Well, the last few days have been gloriously sunny ~ warm and wonderful ~ it has lightened my mood and I feel back to my normal self again ~ the dark clouds seem to have moved on ~ Thankfully!!

The warmer weather has also meant a change of school uniform for my sweet girl ~ so here especially for my good friend Dani ~ are a few pictures of lauren in her new summer school dresses!

They were taken after she got back from school ~ so that is why she looks a bit tired and hot and bothered!

We also have 2 new members of the family ~ as one of our goldfish died and the remaining fish ~ Bubble (below).........

........was a bit lonely ~ so we made a visit to the pet shop at the weekend and got him some new friends.....

This is Bob ~ which is Daniels new fish (sorry about the blurry picture ~ the fish wouldn't keep still ha ha !!).

AND ~ this is Edward......yes ~ Lauren named her fish after my favourite vampire ha ha !!

She has caught her Mummies addiction to Twilight ~ her fish had to be black and she had no doubts about its name!!!

They seem to be doing ok and there have been no issues between them yet ~ so all is good in our fish tank again!!

Since my last weight loss update a few weeks ago ~ I have lost another 3 pounds!

I have now lost 6 stone and 2 pounds (86 pounds) ~ and as my goal was to lose 6 stone ~ I have reached where I initially wanted to be! I am still undecided whether to carry on and lose another 7 pounds or so ~ aswell as toning up!!! I think that I have realised now that this is not just a DIET ~ it is a life style change ~ it is forever and if I just go back to my old eating habits and the way I was before ~ I will have put all the weight back on in no time!!

I cannot deny that I feel wonderful ~ it is nice to be wearing clothes that are 6 dress sizes smaller ~ nice to actually buy clothes that I want to wear ~ not just buying them because they are the only ones that fit and then there are the health benefits ~ which are endless ~ all in all ~ I could not be further away from how I felt this time last year when I started this weight loss journey!!

I will hopefully get over to visit all my bloggy friends soon ~ the last few days have been hectic and I haven't had the time to visit you all.

Hope you are all doing ok! XXX
