Chin up look forward, never backwards, this is yr life, he has made his bed, it's hard, but this yr time to indulge on yourself, and consentrate on you,us bandsters are all on this new journey, and who knows what adventures are round that corner hugs from England xx

Example of today, protien shake skimmed milk,breakfast, water/ tea. Two small meat balls, chicken only from inside mc Donalds peel off batter (bad choice I know,) tea time half cup pumpkin soup with a low laughing cow triangle, and then for a snack small light cheese straw, not great choices but been at wk since 10pm yesterday till 5pm today,so out of house any idea's ? 5 weeks in......
