Neurodiverse Georgia Peach transplanted to Cape Town, the most beautiful city in the world
Last Sunday we were so lazy, probably because it was preceding a public holiday. Last Monday was Workers Day so we had the day off and my friend Retha and I decided to try and get in for lunch at Green Vine Eatery at Silvermist Vineyards. We did not have a booking but thought why not …
Sunday evening I joined friends for dinner and I wore my other pair of new jeans. So comfy but they fit properly. It is nice to not keep tugging at my waist. We were meeting up at the V and A Waterfront to send off our friend Caroline who is moving to the UK. …
It's week 3 in the Kitten household. That is - 3 weeks of following the Banting Real Meal Revolution way of eating. I was at the point of why am I depriving myself discouraged thinking as after a quick initial weight loss of 6kgs I hit a plateau which lasted a week. Walking into our office break room …
