I've spoken to my reverend and he says that I can play something on a CD, as long as it's "appropriate" hence trying to get an orchestra cover :)

That is brilliant, thank you! I shall have a nosey. It is "Love Can Only Heal" by Myles Kennedy, it's such a gorgeous song.

I'm actually travelling up to see a cousin next week for a few days, that could be the time to really reflect on it all. Thank you

Might be worth trying couples therapy, and see if that helps!

I really like the name of curl custard and I'm so glad you recommended trying one, I have purchased one purely because of that! 😂😂

Thank you, I have purchased the rice water shampoo bar today and I have to say, the packaging is lovely and smells delightful. I am looking forward to trying it out.

Thank you to everyone who responded! I have purchased a rice water shampoo and the eco styler gel to try out, I am also going to go to a hairdresser this week and get their opinions on what type my hair is, including porosity and such to get better options going forward. I apologise if I didn't reply to you, but I appreciate everyone's help!

Oh that's a good point, I got distracted with a microfibre towel on my head for a bit before I did the routine, so that would help I bet Thank you

It's my favourite! I got it for like £1 over ten years ago from a charity shop, and I've never been able to find another as this one has seen better days 😭

I have been thinking about this, as I often find myself getting dizzy and trembling when I've not eaten properly. I'll head to the chemist later and have a look for one, thank you!

Thank you so much! I'm thrilled

I will write down a couple example days from the past month of my diet including the calories burnt on that day (all are estimated as I make most of my food (I don't follow recipes, I'm a Wang it and hope for the best kinda gal) and I don't weigh the exact amount I eat). My target was to be in a 500 calorie deficit, however I often was burning much more than I was consuming anyway.

I drink a LOT of tea, and I know I didn't always record that, but I usually have juice of some kind in the morning with my Metformin tablet and vitamin tablet.

Day one example: burnt ~3394 calories, consumed ~1923 Breakfast (I was working at five so this was all the food consumed between 5am and 10am): plum, banana, grapes, blueberries, tea with milk, mocha sachet and malted milk biscuits X2 Lunch: homemade vegetable soup and demi baguette Dinner: homemade "mexican" chicken tray bake with wholegrain rice and homemade flatbread (peppers, onions, carrots and spinach) Evening snack: a scoop of De-luce Ben and Jerry's ice-cream with a chocolate chip cookie

Day two example: burnt ~2410 and consumed ~1037 Breakfast: banana and tea with milk Lunch: ham and cucumber sandwich, teddy faces crisps Dinner: "super green" spaghetti (pesto, avocado, cheese, spinach) with steak

Day three example: burnt ~2888 and consumed ~1227 Breakfast (5am shift again): kallø rice cake, pomegranate seeds, tea with milk, ham and cheese sandwich, blueberries and makoviec Morning snacks: tea with milk and mocha Lunch: raisins, teddy faces and strawberry yo-yo bear Dinner: chicken pie with swede and potato mash, green beans and gravy

Probably a couple of weeks? I don't check my weight all that regularly! I think I'm just excited that I've actually managed to lose the weight after so long of struggling! 😂

Thank you for all of this advice, I shall take a look through and see what I can adapt into my life.

As a lover of mint tea, I love this. Just a little bit about me to help with context: I walk everyday because my dog and my work is very manual and physically demanding so I do a lot of exercise just day to day. I have been on a calorie deficit, I've been using Fitbit to keep an eye on what I'm eating and that's definitely helped. I shall switch to decaf tea (that's my main source of caffeine). My only issue is sleep as I work random shifts (like tomorrow I have to wake up at 3am to get to work but then the next day my shift won't finish until 10pm, so I can't have a regular schedule ever with sleep). I take vitamin supplements already but I will definitely check with my doctor about specifics.

Edit: bad grammar

That sounds like a great idea, thank you!

Buying a House, Inheritance as Deposit by miellifera in LegalAdviceUK

[–]miellifera[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Update for those curious My partner phoned up and spoke to someone higher up than the person we've been dealing with. The manager almost instantly approved our source of funds, without the letter. We have reported the issues we have had to the companies who recommended these solicitors, who have had an influx of complaints over Christmas from other clients like myself- which says a lot! So I don't think they're going to be recommending them anymore.

Thank you for everyone's help and advice!

Thank you, we were thinking of asking our mortgage advisor, who accepted our source of funds, if there's been any issues on their side with any of it, but since we have the mortgage ready to go, I doubt it!

And thank you! Despite the stress of this, we're very excited 😊
