Thank you Trish, what a lovely thought😊😊😊 Looks like me cuddling my Teddy, he's called Teddy, 'cause he looks like one. I don't look like Big Ted though🀣🀣🀣

I too have a teddy who sleeps on my side of the bed! His name's Scruffy who I tell all my secrets too! πŸ€—πŸ€—πŸ€— my daughter brought him for me about 15 years ago when I mentioned that I'd never had a teddy bear! Ahhhhhhh

β€’ in reply to

Whoops ! Scruffy's 26 years old as I was given him before hubby! He's seen me at my worst and knows an awful lot!πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚! Lucky teddys had lots of cuddles ........

What a lovely thought thank you! X not been on here for a while, have you jumped yet?

β€’ in reply toOwlie

Hi Owlie,

Firstly fabby to hear from you again!

Sky Jump is not happening until Saturday 26th of October as there fully booked until then ! It also gives me time to raise donation funds via my Facebook page .... Trish Harris-McNee Virginmoneygift link !

Tomorrow I'm meeting a friend who's offered to write an article about the jump which shes hoping to get published in the local press! I'm also coming up with event ideas and one being a 4 course meal at my home for 6 plus a romantic meal for 2 with overnight stay and breakfast with hot tub and hammock to swing about in! My fingers are crossed on these two! My offer is open on forum too !

Owlieβ€’ in reply to

Hi Miles, had a bit of a setback, not liver related, which has unfortunately had a really bad effect on me. As a result I have stopped exercising and healthy eating well, not going so well, put a stone on and gutted. Trying to get back on track but really struggling, feel like a total failure. Thank you for asking after me πŸ˜€

Hi Owlie. Sorry things haven't been good. I thought that you were probably busy with family things etc. Good to see you posting again :-) :-) We will keep you on track with the diet. Just confess when you are going off track and we will tell you off. Is that really scary or what?!! :-) Hope that you are feeling better very soon. Best wishes. Alf

Owlieβ€’ in reply toalfredthegreat

Hi Alf, feel free to tell me off anytime...I should perhaps confess to eating an almond magnum just now! Cheers x

Excuses, excuses!!! Tut !! :-(

β€’ in reply toOwlie

Its naughty but it's blummin hot too! Plus I had a Magnum earlier 🀣🀣Im lying on the sofa with the fan blasting away as a dog who's staying with me is suffering with the heat including me!

You can start your healthy eating when it cools down but in the meantime dont be to naughty!!!

Owlie profile image
Owlieβ€’ in reply to

Will try not to be too naughty, how do you fancy swapping your fan for an almond magnum?! They seem to be in very short supply! Hope your dog is okay πŸ‘

β€’ in reply toOwlie

Morning Owlie

Two Magnum's in one day would have been really naughty plus just think how much additional biking I'd have to do with you as my trainer! 🀣🀣🀣

RE Bess = We ended up all night sleeping in the lounge together and she's not moved once! 😁

Did you sleep or have another Magnum???

β€’ in reply toalfredthegreat

See Owlie

Your friends are always here to support you! 😁😁😁

Great reply Alf πŸ˜‰

β€’ in reply toOwlie

Hi Owlie

So great to hear from you πŸ˜πŸ‘ and so very not so great to hear of a set back. β˜ΉοΈπŸ‘ŽπŸ». Oh deary me..... it is not surprising that you have stopped your exercising and healthy eating if you have had bad news of a setback. It’s just what happens sometimes psychologically - very very unfortunately πŸ‘ŽπŸ». Hark at me - you know I know nothing medically but I can from a little experience sort of relate to your issues........

On the plus side I have read your other very recent postings on here and it’s great to see you still have your SOH! πŸ‘. Yeah man πŸ‘. (Oops my West Indian speak just breaking through there - was talking to a Jamaican yesterday and was struggling like hell to bring my Bajan back - so I’m not sure he believed me ☹️ when I said I had lived over there for a long time 😁). Wow - That was a long brackets I almost forgot the ).

Anyway enough rambling. I always ramble when I’m a bit lost for words as to how to cheer someone up - like you 😁. Anyway if you must eat almond Magnums I hope you enjoyed it/them! I’m into salted caramel ones these days - they’re yummy but they are almost always sold out when I go to buy so it’s ofter Minty ones instead 😁. They’re one of my little treats along with a handful of the grandchildren’s sweets that I tuck into my trouser pocket on the way to bed. I’m getting away with it so far but the sweetie tub is nearly empty... hey ho I will be in trouble for definite in a few days time when you know who finds out 😁.

Seriously though I hope things turn around for you again, Owlie.

Good luck and keep us up to date - pulease!

Miles

Owlieβ€’ in reply to

Cheers Miles, am now trying to reboot myself, had a good day today tank paintballing and we won, not that I am competitive or anything! Nicking the grandchildren’s sweets, shame on you!! I would never do that unless they were almond magnums of course!

β€’ in reply toOwlie

Ah but they might have been theoretically destined for the grandchildren but they weren’t yet in their hands. So it sort of makes it OK. No - I know it doesn’t really but....

alfredthegreatβ€’ in reply to

Yes it does polymop, it makes it ok. If my wife leaves a chocolate bar in the fridge and I just happen to stumble across it then that's ok too :-) :-) :-)

β€’ in reply toalfredthegreat

So would you raid an Easter Egg if it was still safely stored in your fridge Alf ?

alfredthegreat profile image
alfredthegreatβ€’ in reply to

Let's just say that it's not beyond the realms of possibility :-)

β€’ in reply toalfredthegreat

Naughty you! At least mine's still safeπŸ˜‰πŸ˜‰πŸ˜‰πŸ˜‰

Owlie profile image
Owlieβ€’ in reply to

No touching that egg until you have pedalled the equivalent in miles around the world on that bike! You are in training for the Red Devil’s don’t forget!! πŸ‘Ή

β€’ in reply toOwlie

I totally love your passion in me! Keep up the notesπŸ˜‰!

Yesterday and the day before I biked 21 kilometers, 100 chest presses, 20 minutes floor exercises and walked 5 miles with the dog!,

Today I'm increasing my kilometers to maybe 25 to 30 with 100 leg presses too!,

Easter Egg has already been in the fridge since March so it can stay there a bit longer ,

I'm glad those two naughty lads Alf and Miles dont live close by πŸ˜…πŸ˜…πŸ˜…πŸ˜…

I'm now at the gym😁😁Target 30 kilometers !

Anyway how are you behaving more to the point now that the weathers cooled down! Do I need to gently kick your butt? Joking ..... I know it's tough to get focused so let this we Red Devil πŸ‘Ή keep you on track too 😁😁😁😁

All achieved 30 kilometers plus weights 😁😁😁😁

Owlieβ€’ in reply to

Feel free to kick me in the butt Trish! Xx

β€’ in reply toOwlie

Absolutely! Had porridge for brekkie and 1 tuna sandwich on whole meal bread, probably salmon for dinner....oh, I did find one last almond magnum in the freezer and no one else likes them so unfortunately, and at great hardship to myself, I had to eat it πŸ™„πŸ€ͺπŸ€·β€β™€οΈ

Hows you more to the point?

No gym for me today as I've been over doing things so I'm pottering about and giving my body one days sort of rest. I'm still losing the odd 2 lbs still so I'm a happy bunny ! 2 lbs to go to be in the good BMI range too😁😁😁

Bye for now Boots

Oh by the way I tried numerous times yesterday to send you a PM message but couldnt find you ! I even tried clicking on your picture and still nothing Boots! I was hoping to check your ok as I'd not heard from you for sometime????? I'm sending you a hug

Love Trish xxx

Owlieβ€’ in reply to

Hiya, rubbish see above! Thank you for asking though x

β€’ in reply toOwlie

Owlie

Firstly your not a failer as I"ve fell off the rails numerous times! What you need right now are good friends around you and I must admit there are a few good ones on here including myself that you can talk to.

I'm not sure if it's your general health that's made you feel so rubbish or things going on in your life! The weight gain is nothing as this can soon come off again when your feeling a bit better.

I'm here Owlie if you want to chat further openly or privately.

I'm thinking of you and I'm here

Love Trish x

Well clearly I should be paid if I am your motivator whilst gymming it! Always fancied myself as a personal trainer! Okay so put your back into it and pedal faster, you need good stamina for swinging!! πŸ‘

Now this is more like Owlie's SOH ! Unfortunately I'm not at the gym for at least another 8 to 9 hours but will keep your personal trainer motivation remark in place for tomorrow☺️☺️☺️☺️.
