Good on you Carolyn! Huge respect and sending you all the best and encouragement. #Inspiration
Carolyn you are doing brilliantly. I wish you every success you are an inspiration xxx
WOW well done , doing all this on such a busy life style . xxx
Fantastic goals. Wish you all the best in your marathon training.
You are looking fantastic, welcome to the silver vixens!
Best of luck and dont give up…you can do it…and the green hair looks great…that’s a nice pic…you are a beautiful woman…you make us proud…
Whoa! From walking only a quarter of a mile to managing 14 miles, in only four months? That’s absolutely brilliant! You’ve told us how you managed it, so I can see it was lots of hard work. Your muscles must be super strong to have lugged round the excess weight too. Really thin people must have puny muscles compared you. All that exercise as well as loads of commuting. You’re amazing! Now you really inspire me. What am I waiting for? I put on a stone earlier this year. There’s really no excuse for letting it sit there any longer. Thanks, Caroline.
Lovely to see you posting again, and the hair looks fabulous! Good luck with the marathon x
Glad to have you back! And WOW! WTG! You are so inspiring. Thank you for being brave and sharing your journey and pictures with us. I’ll look forward to more recipes as I’m a vintage nut. My family has loved many of the recipes, (our fave so far: Colcannon). Keep up the good work!

Thank you for your positive comments – appreciate them xxx C
Wow, what a wonderful goal! You’ll do well, I just know it 🙂 Thanks so much for all the info you provide about rationing on your site. I am going to start following the rationing guidelines on Sept. 1st. Not so much for weight loss, but to save money. I recently had to stop working due to disability, and I think this will be a great way to eat healthy AND cheaply. I did it once before for a week as an experiment and felt fantastic. Let’s see what happens when I try it long term.
You brave courageous lady. Well done. You are such an inspiration! Lovely to see more posts x
Carolyn..I just found your blog after my sister made “Homity Pie” for my husband when we were back in England..and now I plan to make this in Canada now we are home.
I just LOVE your blog..you are such a refreshingly transparent lady and such an inspiration. Well done on the training for the Marathon!!!x
Hi, I’m from the U.S. and have been checking out your blog for awhile. My younger daughter even got extra credit at school because I was making ‘wartime rations’ meals for the family and she happened to be studying world war 2 in school at the same time. I commend you for not giving up on your weight, it’s inspirational. I know sticking with it is a huge key to success or at the very least not blowing it altogether. I’m a nurse here and good health is a daily commitment and struggle for most of us including me. Best wishes!
Thank you Arlene- thanks for sharing that! That’s an interesting story!! It’s good that they still keep WW2 alive in the syllabus, not just the war but the affects it had on people socially and economically etc.. xxx YES the key is to NOT give up even if people think you are a loser because you fail. Nothing wrong with failing if you pick yourself up and keep on trying – it’s the journey we learn from! XXXX C
