Just thought I'd say "hey" hope everyone's doing ok? I'm still going, but have replaced smoking with eating so weight is creeping up but not ready to do anything about it yet, one thing at a time ay? 😜 also having terrible bleeding gums in the mornings after brushing, any tips? Xx

Hiya nic, sorry to hear you're having gum problems😟 unfortunately it's a very common side effect. I found salt water water rinses helped me and a soft baby toothbrush. Others have used corsodyl mouth wash and that's very good too.

The weight increase is also very common but as you say, one thing at a time and you really are doing ever so wellπŸ’ keep up the good work😊x
