Oh its awful….and lots of staff at Irish Water just got bonuses. We have not lost our water supply so far, fingers crossed.

I am about to do a workout and I really hope I can have a shower after it….I’ve got a meeting this afternoon so it would be very bad if the water goes on us now!!!

I feel awful for all the people in Drogheda and Meath…[Read more]

I have fallen off the wagon…..badly.

This thread is about honesty, so I am going to be completely honest. The past 2 weeks have been a nightmare for me.

Our youngest daughter had a virus with fevers on and off for 4-5 days and alot of crying in her sleep. She ended up on an anti-biotic and we ended up very sleep deprived and consequently, not…[Read more]

I emailed them on Friday when I got home at their wesbite http://www.whopper.ie but have not had any reply yet.

I also emailed Applegreen but nothing back from them either.

If they were to look at CCTV they would see the server actually throwing food at me. it was disgraceful

We had my Dad’s retirement party this weekend and a family BBQ and a birthday party for our 10 year old so I’ve been surrounded by food, wine and cake!!

We had a great night Friday and I danced my socks off – that’s exercise right??!! I drank lots of water to make sure I didn’t over indulge in the wine (though I won’t lie, I had a few glasses, it…[Read more]

THE SHORTS ZIPPED UP ALL THE WAY TODAY!!!!!

I’m so so chuffed. I bought them 7 weeks ago, in early May and I had the goal to get into them by the end of June. My hubby said to me this morning that he could really notice my body and legs toning up after all the exercise of the past few weeks so I decided to give them a try and they zipped up all…[Read more]

My knee was sore last night after doing the Davina DVD, so I know now I need to go easier on it for a while. It seems if I do jumping or high impact exercise, it swells up and gets sore. So, back to Rosemary Conley DVD’s for rest of this week!! Her DVD’s are a bit old fashioned but they do the job!! I am red faced, sweaty and out of breath by the…[Read more]

I did a workout today and honestly, I nearly melted! I did a Davina DVD at home….it was so hot and I just didn’t think I could handle walking or running in this weather, so I came into the living room which is the coolest room in the house to do it. Even in the coolest room and in the shade, it was tough but I was so so happy to have done it!

I…[Read more]

We BBQ alot during the summer, its our favourite way to way once its not raining (though, we have been known to start a BBQ in the sun and finish it off by holding an umbrella over the food!)

There is a BBQ company called Cobb and they make the coolest BBQ’s which are easy to use, small enough to move indoors (especially if it rains) and instead…[Read more]

I just want to say a MASSIVE well done to Amber & Mary who did so well this morning at our weigh in.

Just looking at how well they’re doing and seeing how happy they are with their results really spurred me on and I came home and did a full on lunchtime workout.

I am nearly at a stone weight loss – struggling to get the last 2 lbs off but I am…[Read more]

Ah Kay, sounds like you’re having a crap week and we all have those. Don’t beat yourself up.

You shouldn’t have to give up everything. It’s not sustainable, it makes us just crumble and go mad.

I think I lost my way a bit a few weeks ago, I was up a pound one week then down the next and I hovered around the same weight for a month. I was…[Read more]

I hopped on scales this morning and am down another 2.5lbs, so that’s 12.5lbs since we started our weight loss group in Feb! I am chuffed with myself. I did 3 good workouts since last week so I think this is what made it 2.5lbs

Aiming for a stone loss soon!!! Woo-Hoo!!!

The girl at the checkout was so nice, she said its an awful policy and it upsets customers all the time and they’ve been telling management its not going down well with customers but she says they don’t care.

It will definitely make me much more conscious of buying anything in there again.

We’ve gone the past 2 years and loved it. You can go on some of the boats and also, they had lots of things in the water too. like a flying Iron Man!

There were lots of stalls with food & drinks as well, I had a glass of prosecco while we were walking around last year.

There are loads of activities too for the kids and a kind of fairground…[Read more]

Well, I was feeling very frustrated that I can’t walk or run atm with knee injury, so instead, got my Yoga mat out and exercised in back garden this evening. It was so lovely! Not as good as a run on the beach but still, lovely to be outdoors exercising!

I love being out in the fresh air for exercise. Since Summer was a baby I’;ve been taking her…[Read more]

I’ve got the popcorn in for this evening when we are watching a movie together for family movie night. I have not really had any crisps since we started this and to be honest I don’t even miss them that much. Making popcorn ourselves makes such a nice smell and its lovely when its warm and fresh. That’s a great snack on a Friday or Saturday night…[Read more]

Make sure to come in flats so you can all have a run on the race track!! We’ll have prizes for Mammies and Toddlers on the day!!!

There is a petition going around if anyone wants to sign it. Its almost at 100,000 signatures already.

I don’t know if it will actually help because I think our government are blind to this issue but it can’t hurt to sign it.

we’re having steak for dinner today and making over chips (from scratch with Fry Lite!) to go with it. And broccoli, green beans, mushrooms, onions and a bit of gravy.

Really enjoying my food now that we are being careful about what and how much we eat.

Got a bag of popcorn kernels in for later on when we are watching a movie and might want a…[Read more]

Here’s a really nice lunch idea….Bacon, Feta & Egg salad.

Grilled bacon on a bed of spinach, cherry tomatoes and lettuce leaves with crumbled feta cheese and topped with a poached egg. Make up some home made dressing with a tablespoon wholegrain mustard, dash balsamic vinegar, drizzle honey and teaspoonolive oil.

Small slice sourdough on side…[Read more]
