Yawn

I can’t get my toddler back on England time so we are up most of the night watching blaze and the monster machines 🙈. Very much feel like a zombie but it’s been good for the diet as I’ve not really felt hungry so not snacked between meals at all. As Joey once said, “my […]

Jet lag waffle (not the eating kind 🙈)

Well our first night back has been interesting to say the least. Both boys awake between 11pm and 2am, baby just screaming and toddler wanting to play 🙈. I’ve prewritten this at about 4am (sorry for the waffling) and my toddler is still awake so I have no idea what the day brings, my baby […]

Bye for now

So sad to be packing the cases up. We are all excited to see friends, family and our balance bike again (!) but not ready to say goodbye to California. There’s something about holidays to far away lands and forgetting your troubles. Maybe it should be prescribed for stress as it’s against the law to […]

Disney

So apparently dreams really do come true at Disneyland. My toddler had the best day ever apparently! The LA parks are perfect for him as there are loads of rides he can go on and we squeezed both parks into one day. He is a massive cars fan so cars land was incredible. My Fitbit […]

LA

We made it to our last destination on our perfect holiday LA. It is crazy busy with traffic. Makes London sound quiet 😂. Hello kitchen whoop! We have stocked up a few meat and veg meals from Trader Joe’s so I am feeling in control again. I have definitely put weight on at the moment. […]

Slug

Sluggish doesn’t really begin to describe how I feel off plan so fully looking forward to getting back in a house tomorrow so we can go shopping and have lots and lots of veg. 😂 So goals for the week ahead. On plan 100 percent and walking a lot to try and get rid of […]

Off plan

So I always intended to be off plan for the wedding so I am thoroughly enjoying myself. After not drinking for over a year it hit me hard and it’s only now I feel a bit more human, wonder woman needed some cocktails. 🙈 I did manage a little swim but that will be about […]

Bye Carpinteria

Today we say goodbye to Carp and head south to San Diego for the wedding weekend. I feel quite sad the first part of our trip is over as it’s just so gorgeous here. I will miss the sound of the ocean lapping at night and the small town charm. We most definitely will be […]

Thirsty Thursday

It’s a tiny bit cooler today highs of 28 instead of 38 so I can ramp up my walking hopefully. Exercise has been severely limited as it is just way too hot so my main focus has been suncreaming the kids every 10 minutes 🙈. It’s been quite liberating not jumping on the scales every […]

Wharf

It was mid to high 30s yesterday here in Santa Barbara. We melted 😂. I think not having an ice-cream would have been against the law on the Wharf so I definitely slipped off the wagon. A really gentle slide off the wagon where your trainers stick to the side so it almost feels like […]
