It might have been the howling wind pushing me back down the hill I was trying to run up, or the heat 🥵, or Ollies constant stops, or last nights partying - with my hubby and eldest son - but that was tough!!!

But wow - week 7!!!! I love the sense of achievement of reaching this week and knowing that I can fight the constant nagging in my head that says I should take a break (I didn’t)!! I could almost hear you lovely lot shouting at me to keep going!!!! I really hate the thought of letting you all down 🤪🤪🤪

Thank you to my in my head cheerleaders!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️

Well done 👏🏻. Mine was tough but not due to partying ( I wish) just busy day.

I could have easily stopped at 20 mins but I was determined to finish. Team w7 spurred me on.. I did feel great for completing it, which also spurs me on knowing how I would feel.

Its a fab forum 😃
