![I’M IN THE CLUB [10]](https://keep-up-with-the-jones-family.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/05/TigerTigerFive.jpg)
I made it. Ten weeks in, and ten per cent of my body mass has gone. Forever [I hope]. Last night at Slimming World I crept onto the scales praying to see me drop below the next stone marker and there, three pounds lighter, my award popped onto the screen. Club Ten. I can’t actually…
Just as we thought the weather was getting better….today it’s pouring down and we’re indoors. Never mind that we’re homebound thanks to the never-ending bug that’s circulating every child in Hampshire it seems, we’re inside. Inside means cabin fever prone children and so today we made a little rainy day wishes jar. It’s for those…

Surprises are very few and far between when you’re a grown up. So when I read the message from Twinderelmo at 8am yesterday, reading “Huge congrats”, I assumed she was just being as lovely as usual and congratulating me on my Slimming World progress. I wrote back that I was so shocked as I expected…
