ALL POSTS BY: Stacey

I’m Stacey, a bookworm (or should that be dragon?!) from a quaint hamlet on the outskirts of Lincolnshire. In my late 30s, I’m a devoted mum to two wonderful boys who are both autistic—a unique aspect that makes them different, not less.

Though this was after I had eaten, when I usually weigh first thing in the morning so I’m not taking it as definite yet.  I still haven’t started any exercise, or done as much walking as I was planning to, I’m …
