Hi Jodie and Folley absolutely loved this vlog. Listening to your brother actually made sense about a healthy relationship with food, and the struggles of trying to lose weight. If I go on a diet all I think about is my next meal but when telling myself I’m eating healthier I tend not to overindulge. I just wish I had the motivation to do meal prepping but get stuck in a rut, if there is anyone out there that can give me some different ideas I would be very grateful. Jodie would love to see more of these wee chats with your brother. Take care lovely lady 🌻🌻🌻x
Thank you Jodie and your brother for discussing this, I love that you are both promoting “Good Health” it is such an important subject especially these days where people’s mental health are deteriorating. I have ADHD, I didn’t realise why I couldn’t get my shit together and just keep the weight off, unfortunately all the bad foods gave me a dopamine boost and I just craved them. In January I decided to leave my toxic job, get my mental health back on track and get myself healthy again. I am 48 and didn’t want to hit 50 in such poor health. I did not weigh food, I did not meal prep ( too hard if you have ADHD) I just switched to whole foods, absolutely nothing processed. My main meal consists of veggies and protein. I eat Greek yogurt all kinds of fruit, dark chocolate occasionally as long as I make it myself from scratch I eat it. I was so disappointed at first that the weight wasn’t coming off quick enough but with only 30 mins exercise 3 days a week and being consistent for 8 months I have totally changed my relationship with food, dropped 3 clothes size and no longer pre diabetic along with other issues. It’s hard at times but now I enjoy my balanced lifestyle and once you get rid off all that processed food and sugar you start to feel happy and healthy therefore don’t binge eat anymore. Also a table spoon of apple cider vinegar before your meal will help with insulin spikes I suppose I just wanted to say I understand it’s important to love yourself but also important to be around as long as possible for your family Well done Jodie for addressing this and I wish you every success on your healthy journey. Will most definitely be following your brother on instagram. Much love ❤x
@@suzanmehmetmclean5461 wow Suzan what a journey you have had and look how far you have come with a bit of hard work and consistency 💪 you should be so very proud of yourself. My youngest son has ADHD too and i hear what you said about food giving you a dopamine boost, I haven't got my head around how my son can consistently eat and crave unhealthy foods. I always cook whole foods but he moans and refuses to eat it. I would definitely like to learn more about this so I'm better equipped to help him. If you could direct me to where I can educate myself more on this topic I would be so grateful. Thank you so much for telling me your story, I'm so grateful to have such an amazing RUclips family xxx
Love this Suzan ! Thank you for what you’ve written, makes perfect sense to me to eat whole foods and incorporate some gentle exercise, well done on your successes ! You are fabulous !❣️
Absolutely love the video! Our health is very important no matter what size. Prepped meals will help big time; it keeps you from grabbing something quick & unhealthy to eat. 💗.
Ah Jodie, what an inspiration. Richard is lovely just like you. I'm looking to lose weight and change my lifestyle and already starting to feel better. Richard gave such good advice and encouragement. Really enjoyed this video. Looking forward to the next one xxx
Gotta admit Jodie, I love your bro. What he’s saying is right, 100%. I always been like you, if your happy with your body, size don’t matter, but it’s not true. As we get older, it’s best for us to be lighter/healthier & toned. Thank you for this video, I needed to hear what your bro was saying too. Give him my thanks please. ONE LOVE🫶🏽
@@DodgyDebb Hi Deb How are you lovely? Yes totally relate and agree with you. Aww I'm glad the video inspired you ☺️ and I will definitely tell him what all you lovely woman are saying xx
Hi Jodie, thank you so much for another great video, I appreciate everything your brother said, and I am going to try and sort my health out. Thank you so much Richard. ❤
Thanks Jodie for bringing your brother to talk about weight loss and health. I found the video very informative and factual. The video was very well explained. I am going to try to obtain his food delivery. This is just a thought I am mixed race, 57 with tons of weight to loose. I have pulmonary embolism clots to the lungs and hypertension too it's rear, only short percentage is going through what I went through, he is doing well but perhaps if he can continue or can focus on people like myself and your sister, I am trying to eat healthy I cannot eat salt, I will look on the food you are delivering. If you have the post I will be watching as you gave me motivation as I have non at all I am very much in my chair morning noon and night due to my one and only child a 19 year old passed away suddenly three years ago not gotten over it I need to loose it to have an operation to move the clots. Carry with what you are doing I found it very informative.
Hi Jodie and Richard, well done on producing a very good, motivational video, you have motivated me to get moving and watch my carbs and meal plan. THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
Thanks Jodie this is so helpful. I have lost 80lbs so far over since Nov 2022, 10 lbs to go to goal. It’s not been easy and I haven’t always been motivated, but being disciplined has been the secret. Not comparing myself and just accepting that I am on my own journey and that it’s not linear. Being kind to myself has also been key. All the best to anyone who is on this journey and know that you can do it. I have done it and so can you.
Jodie you sound like me emotional eat chronic pain and just not caring the weight piled on. Tough love weighing food and calorie counting is a pain but it’s what helped me to understand why I was going wrong. No food is bad but portion is important. If you don’t keep yourself full you binge. My trainer does not tell me what to eat but my protein,fibre carbs and fats are targets I have to hit within my calories. Your bro is right having stuff stops the binge. Batch cook so I cook my protein for a few days same with the carb unless it’s quick and steam veggies is a game changer But more than anything you have to want to do it and it’s a mental struggle. One meal one day at a time. If you go over fine next meal back to what you want to do. You don’t have to justify why you want to lose weight. My track record of slimming clubs is horrific calorie counting saved me. I may not be able to do lots in the gym but it’s changed my life. What I’m struggling with is when I don’t go I miss it. Jodie you can do it but you need to do it yourself because I never listened to anyone. I’m heading to 11 stone off but it’s consistency that got me there. If you want it you can do it.
@@debblackwell2750 This is so encouraging and very inspiring, well done you. How amazing, you must be so proud of yourself 🥰 Thank you so much for all your words of encouragement 🙏❤️❤️❤️
Thanks to you both for this. My weight has spiraled since my hubby died in May. I am now at my heaviest and know I should be doing something about it, unfortunately I am a comfort eater and believe me I need that comfort. This is very inspirational and I will try and replace my evening snacking to my stress relief of Adult colouring books. Walking for me is not easy due to severe arthritis but one step at a time. Thank you. Love your posts.
@@lush46 hi lovely I'm so sorry for your loss I can just imagine the pain you are in mentally and physically. Go easy on yourself, take one day at a time. My weight also spiraled out of control when I loss my mum and dad due just before her. My marriage broke down a week after my mum passed and he left too so it all hit me like a ton of bricks and I too gained so much weight to my heaviest weight. Try your best to look after yourself and find something that brings you joy it will really help you. I found RUclips, I know you all say you find my videos so inspiring but you guys honestly don't understand how much you have all done for me without even knowing. If you need anything sweetheart please don't hesitate to reach out, email me jodie.folley3@gmail.com or DM me on Instagram I'm always here if you need a chat. Look after yourself sweetheart 😘 Sending the biggest Jodie hug 🫂 your way. Xxx
Darlings i loved this video, iv always struggled with dieting, loosing weight fast and then over eating. Im trying to get healthy at the moment, its hard. You both look amazing ❤❤ hugs xsuex ❤
We love your brother. It’s nice to see another part of you. I’ve struggled with my weight my whole life. I am at a point now where I’m just trying to figure out what works. I have arthritis and as a cancer thriver the medication I take has side effects of joint pain so mobility is a struggle. I find that I like aqua size & do that 2x a week and I added a Pilates class for stretching. It’s small changes. Meal prepping & having real food on hand helps too. Just gotta stop snacking on the wrong stuff. Thanks for all of the suggestions
@@breeskilove4817 aww thank u darling 🤗🥰 I can totally relate to you it's so hard when living with chronic illnesses. But yes like you said it is about trying to find out what works for you. You have started so just try and keep it going making small changes and staying consistent will definitely make a difference. Yes I know snacking is definitely one I need to crack too. Xxx
Aww Jodie thank you and thank u folley, for doing this vlog and educating us on the importance of eating healthy, I believe in you Jodie and think you are the most amazing beautiful lady I’m looking forward to your journey on this healthy eating plan I know u will smash it ❤
Great vlog. I am the opposite of you Jodie. I lose my appetite completely when I’m upset. I don’t want to see food if I’m worried, or if I get bad news. I try to eat as healthily as I can, without obsessing. I love ice cream, and chocolate, but I realize that I can’t eat it every day, so I follow my doctor and just keep it in perspective. He says all food is good food, but all food isn’t good for everyone. It all depends on your health. I learned that when my husband could no longer over indulge in Tomatoes, bananas, nuts, avocados, potatoes and other foods that are very good for people with good health, but are way too high in potassium for anyone who has high potassium. It’s hard work trying to stay healthy😍Thanks for sharing.
@@annbyer3023 Hi Ann Yes I guess it's one way or the other. That's a good saying from your doctor, I've never looked at it that way. It's nice to hear you are trying to live a healthier lifestyle, hopefully I will be right behind you on that. Xx
It’s almost 12:30 AM here in New York and I checked in to see what your Sunday video was. I see it serious so I think I will postpone watching until I am Wideawake on Monday morning. This looks serious. Love you, Jodi.
Really enjoyed this and I’m just about ready to try and sort myself out now so great timing for me I identify with you in so many ways. It’s great you have your brother’s support and knowledge x
Jodie, what a brilliant blog today, your brother speaks so much sense, but he is your brother and you are an amazing so the apple dont fall far from the tree, great double act, your parents would be so proud. Xx
Hi Jodie,, just to let you know Aldi has loads of beauty bits in this Sunday 11th August including sol de janeiro's dupe tropical essence booty balm. Just love this dupe, xx
Jodie we are all cheering you on. The Joe Wicks cookery books are good. Cant you get your family on board so you all have the same meals xxx your brother is lovely btw
@@lisasafiullah8774 Hi Lisa, thank you so much darling 🤗🥰 I will have to check that book out. Yes I've had words with them all and we are all doing it. I meal prep yesterday and I'm honestly dead now my body kills today. 🥴😵💫
Really good video today, as always. Really informative. I also believe that drinking plenty of water will kerb those cravings. You are beautiful and lI ook forward to seeing your progress. You will do it. God bless you😊
Hi Jodie, I’m just going to be honest, my first thought was here we go again, my brain was telling me to just delete and go to someone else, but I made myself watch till the end and ended up crying because I know all those difficulties and my health is not good. Here is the shock, please keep doing updates with your brother as I need all the information and guidance I can get. Sending love ❤️ god bless. (And maybe a good kick up the bum).
@@Kitcatz1997 OMG I'm so proud of you for staying and honestly I know that feeling and do it myself so I can totally relate. Let try do it together, making small changes at our own pace. And before you know it we will be looking back and thank ourselves for sticking at it xxx sending you the biggest hugs 🤗🥰
From personal experience…Beef, butter and eggs, no weighing or counting calories just eat till you’re full, gives you all the nutrients you need with zero cravings. 12 months in and down from a size 20 to a 14/16. No longer pre diabetic, inflammation has gone and feeling great. Finding it easy to stick to with 2 meals a day and Intermittent fasting. Cutting out sugar and Ultra processed foods really is a game changer. Just need to start weightlifting now Whatever you decide to do for your own health I wish you well, small changes can have big impacts if you stick with it
@@NHY367 that's amazing Well done you. This message is very inspiring as are all of the comments left so for on todays video. I'm hoping everyone reads all the comments to even if they don't leave one themselves. I love how uplifting this video has been for us all. Xxx
@@bigprettyme1622 not really exercised for a year and dropped 2 sizes, everyone freaks as they think it will be hard but after a few weeks all cravings go away, just need to find a weight lifting coach now to take the next step to fitness
Hello my lovely Jodie How are you girl so nice to see you and with your brother and he really did give some good advice love and happness to you both ok love linda uk.
❤ Jodie, your channel is chefs kiss. And today your brother is also chefs kiss. Information was on point. He is so handsome. And of course you are so pretty. Focus on moving, building muscle and eating healthy 80% of the time and all else falls into place. This was a phenomenal video - loved it. Again check out Diary of a CEO about aging with Dr. Vonda Wright - reinforces what your brother says
Jodie Jodie Jodie not going to talk about the video because all I could do was look at your brother 😂😂😂😂 I can see the resemblance ❤ thanks for sharing love you girl ❤🥰🤗
Here are a couple of Recipes: 1. Ingredients: Large onion, 4 large potatoes, 6 -8 chicken thighs, packet of Chorizo sausages. Method: Chop onion roughly, quarter potatoes. Arrange everything in an oven dish, pour over some chicken stock with half a teaspoon of turmeric, cover with foil and cook in over for 40-50 mins. Serve with a crusty roll (yes you can have one). 2. Ingredients: Tuna (in brine only), for a family maybe 2 tins, Beetroot, onion, handful of frozen peas. Method: Flake tuna in a bowl, chop beetroot and onion, add to bowl, throw in the peas, stir together then add a little of the vinegar from the beetroot. Pile this into the middle of a large salad. Take your time to eat. I eat a lot of Spanish food, why not find a good Paella recipe as you like rice. Good luck Sweetheart.
They use to say never do a grocery shop before before eating when your hungry because your more likely to buy unhealthy snacks. Do you like pumpkin seeds because you can toast them, I do roast vegetables, peppers courgette onion etc and throw pumpkin seeds on top. They have a nice nutty flavour.
Loved the vlog . I’m desperately trying to loose weight for my health. I’m in agony with arthritis. Luckily I love swimming and go most days . Please share your food list . Let’s keep trying . I’m a sugar addict and really need to stop xx
@@jodiehawks6443 hi Jodie Nice to hear from you. Aww I know it so hard to get going on the right track. No I don't I love food haha 😂 Hahaha I know everyone always says his a good looking guy lol xx
Hi Jodie great video your brother knows what he’s talking about.you are doing brilliant look at the wieght you’ve posed and your skin is beautiful,your lovely in side and night xxxxx❤❤❤❤😊
Jodie, there are lots of companies who deliver calorie counted meals. Perhaps you could try them, just for you to start with. I think Zion would join you as he is sporty. Kamali ought to, he is a lovely boy, but like my nephew a little on the chunky side. I have had to lose weight for my health and have gone down two dress sizes, however it has been gradual over 3 years. I have found that carbs, especially bread make me bloated, so I eat very little. I now eat lots of vegetables, salad and fruit.
@@dianeknight4839 I totally agree with getting the boys to join me. Zion is very much on joining me on this journey however kamarley is definitely more harder to crack and get him fully on board but I he will get there just like me. Well done of getting your healthy lifestyle on track and in the right direction. Keep it up and I hope I can follow right behind u xx
Hi Jodie Don’t forget he is the professional and what he says goes as he knows the problems. I used to binge eat and sometimes now. With chronic pain it’s difficult as if you are a diabetic it’s essential to weigh food as it’s a traffic life system that they use to tell them what amounts of sugar is in food that is in the can or packet Or you could count calories which something else. Your brother is giving you good advice and enjoyed the video All the best and see you in the next one x
Sorry to bother you again i am 71 I'm a widow and i comfort eat toast is my go to food because I'm older i have shrunk to 4 ft 10 I'm classed as obese so i understand its all your problems with food take care Jodie xx❤❤
@@williaminadonn7412 hi lovely I totally understand the struggles with comfort eating. Try one day at a time try and replace the toast with some else xxx u will get there sweetheart xx
Hi Jodie I had not realised good old YT had unsubscribed me🤦♀️ Much sense was talked thro in your kitchen. I am slowly plodding and seem on track for over a year losing 1lb a week and heck I will take that although on Friday I went for a bra fit and was just about naked in front of a full length mirror. I am still disgusted and felt deflated but have to keep focused and going. I was surprised tho the lady to save me putting dress on and off to see how bra looked under dress gave me a thin knit cardigan to put on back to front.....I was shocked as correct bra and cardigan close fit not my usual loose and baggy I did have a shape but my belly over hang I am at a loss. I am now on day 2 of getting out for a walk with a walker and it is bringing such joy. I am slow, it is taking forever and pain is beyond wow but back home document the walk give myself a silly star and tomorrow I will repeat. I can see you and your brother at times locking horns but I have confidence you will get there he is a wonderful resource and more importantly person in Team Jodie corner. Oh heck I have done my usual ramble on sorry Sending much love🥰💜
@@hjcdormouse7337 aww I'm glad to hear from you again. It's been a while. I love reading your comments so don't worry about that. Let you said you are in the right road for success so keep up the good work. Yes my brother have very strong opinions as do I so yes your right we have in the past knock heads but as we have grown we really do know just how far to take it and ask ourselves is it really worth it. Thanks for all the good luck wishes Look forward to spending to you again very soon. Keep up the walking,I'm so proud of you and excited about your future. Take one day at a time. God bless you darling 🤗🥰

@@veronicaletmeaskyousomethi8457 aww love you too Veronica. Hope you are keeping well xx
Really enjoyed this and I’m just about ready to try and sort myself out now so great timing for me
I identify with you in so many ways. It’s great you have your brother’s support and knowledge x
@@Suzannewatterson aww I'm so happy for you. We can do it together, remember small changes and consistency i keys xx
Is key x
Thanks for this video. I eat healthy but I have RA and love sweets but had to seriously cut back because too much sugar intake makes my body hurt.
Jodie, what a brilliant blog today, your brother speaks so much sense, but he is your brother and you are an amazing so the apple dont fall far from the tree, great double act, your parents would be so proud. Xx

@@JoannePassley aww thank you so much darling 🤗🥰
Hello beautiful brother and sister ❤❤.80 per cent food 20 percent exercise xx
@@kimghoss6021 totally 👌💪🥰🤗
Hi Jodie, I’m just going to be honest, my first thought was here we go again, my brain was telling me to just delete and go to someone else, but I made myself watch till the end and ended up crying because I know all those difficulties and my health is not good. Here is the shock, please keep doing updates with your brother as I need all the information and guidance I can get. Sending love ❤️ god bless. (And maybe a good kick up the bum).
@@Kitcatz1997 OMG I'm so proud of you for staying and honestly I know that feeling and do it myself so I can totally relate. Let try do it together, making small changes at our own pace. And before you know it we will be looking back and thank ourselves for sticking at it xxx sending you the biggest hugs 🤗🥰
🫂
From personal experience…Beef, butter and eggs, no weighing or counting calories just eat till you’re full, gives you all the nutrients you need with zero cravings. 12 months in and down from a size 20 to a 14/16. No longer pre diabetic, inflammation has gone and feeling great. Finding it easy to stick to with 2 meals a day and Intermittent fasting.
Cutting out sugar and Ultra processed foods really is a game changer.
Just need to start weightlifting now
Whatever you decide to do for your own health I wish you well, small changes can have big impacts if you stick with it
@@NHY367 that's amazing
Well done you.
This message is very inspiring as are all of the comments left so for on todays video. I'm hoping everyone reads all the comments to even if they don't leave one themselves. I love how uplifting this video has been for us all. Xxx
@@bigprettyme1622 not really exercised for a year and dropped 2 sizes, everyone freaks as they think it will be hard but after a few weeks all cravings go away, just need to find a weight lifting coach now to take the next step to fitness

@@williaminadonn7412 aww thank you so much darling 🤗🥰
❤ Jodie, your channel is chefs kiss. And today your brother is also chefs kiss. Information was on point. He is so handsome. And of course you are so pretty. Focus on moving, building muscle and eating healthy 80% of the time and all else falls into place. This was a phenomenal video - loved it. Again check out Diary of a CEO about aging with Dr. Vonda Wright - reinforces what your brother says
@@rhondaburgess965 aww thank you darling 🤗
I will definitely go check that out for sure. Xxx thank you x
Hi Jodie good health video and your brother is such a good brother to you and so supportive and you're stunning and beautiful ❤

Here are a couple of Recipes:
1. Ingredients: Large onion, 4 large potatoes, 6 -8 chicken thighs, packet of Chorizo sausages. Method: Chop onion roughly, quarter potatoes. Arrange everything in an oven dish, pour over some chicken stock with half a teaspoon of turmeric, cover with foil and cook in over for 40-50 mins. Serve with a crusty roll (yes you can have one).
2. Ingredients: Tuna (in brine only), for a family maybe 2 tins, Beetroot, onion, handful of frozen peas. Method: Flake tuna in a bowl, chop beetroot and onion, add to bowl, throw in the peas, stir together then add a little of the vinegar from the beetroot. Pile this into the middle of a large salad.
Take your time to eat.
I eat a lot of Spanish food, why not find a good Paella recipe as you like rice.
Good luck Sweetheart.
@@dianeknight4839 aww thank you Diane. I will be definitely giving these a try. 🤗🥰
Excuse me, I have to watch again couldn’t take my eyes of of your brother 😂 kidding but he is a good looking man as you already know 😉
@@melanievanloon7299 hahaha yes I do know lol xxx
Great video. Thanks
@@tonyamiller260 thank you Tony xx
They use to say never do a grocery shop before before eating when your hungry because your more likely to buy unhealthy snacks. Do you like pumpkin seeds because you can toast them, I do roast vegetables, peppers courgette onion etc and throw pumpkin seeds on top. They have a nice nutty flavour.
@@taniaaustin6433 yes I know and it's so true from my own experience. I will definitely try this sounds lush xx
Great video Jodie. Does this mean you're stopping SW? X
@@basmahassan2909 thank you darling 🤗 🥰 I stop a while ago xx
I definitely enjoyed this video! 😉 I would like to know what can I do to lose my belly fat 😢🫣
Loved the vlog . I’m desperately trying to loose weight for my health. I’m in agony with arthritis. Luckily I love swimming and go most days . Please share your food list . Let’s keep trying . I’m a sugar addict and really need to stop xx
@@fibifeo thank you darling 🤗
I can totally relate and sure I will give you all move information in my next video xxx
Jodie your doing brilliant with your weight loss
I struggle so so much , but I also find food boring - do you ?
Ps … Your brother is fit 😜
@@jodiehawks6443 hi Jodie
Nice to hear from you.
Aww I know it so hard to get going on the right track. No I don't I love food haha 😂
Hahaha I know everyone always says his a good looking guy lol xx
Zion looks like his Uncle!
@@aliciametters2025 I know he gets that alot 😊
❤
I started 15 minutes walk. I cannot do pool cause my legs go into spasms 😢due to cold water.
Hi Jodie great video your brother knows what he’s talking about.you are doing brilliant look at the wieght you’ve posed and your skin is beautiful,your lovely in side and night xxxxx❤❤❤❤😊
@@karenlavery4463 aww thank you so much Karen 🤗🥰
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I know yr brother said you will feel better after a 15 minute walk but when you are in pain or Excercise causes you more pain it's impossible x
Jodie, there are lots of companies who deliver calorie counted meals. Perhaps you could try them, just for you to start with. I think Zion would join you as he is sporty. Kamali ought to, he is a lovely boy, but like my nephew a little on the chunky side.
I have had to lose weight for my health and have gone down two dress sizes, however it has been gradual over 3 years.
I have found that carbs, especially bread make me bloated, so I eat very little. I now eat lots of vegetables, salad and fruit.
@@dianeknight4839 I totally agree with getting the boys to join me. Zion is very much on joining me on this journey however kamarley is definitely more harder to crack and get him fully on board but I he will get there just like me. Well done of getting your healthy lifestyle on track and in the right direction. Keep it up and I hope I can follow right behind u xx
👍🏿👌🏿🙏🏾🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿
Cute 😊
Hi Jodie
Don’t forget he is the professional and what he says goes as he knows the problems. I used to binge eat and sometimes now. With chronic pain it’s difficult as if you are a diabetic it’s essential to weigh food as it’s a traffic life system that they use to tell them what amounts of sugar is in food that is in the can or packet
Or you could count calories which something else. Your brother is giving you good advice and enjoyed the video
All the best and see you in the next one x
@@rhianevans7189 aww thank u darling 🤗 yes you are right. I just now need to put it all into practice 👌🥰
Hi sis SORRY I am new in this family I have a question for you you guys are you twins?

Walking gets your blood circulation going through your body n heart.
Hi Jodie
I had not realised good old YT had unsubscribed me🤦♀️
Much sense was talked thro in your kitchen.
I am slowly plodding and seem on track for over a year losing 1lb a week and heck I will take that although on Friday I went for a bra fit and was just about naked in front of a full length mirror.
I am still disgusted and felt deflated but have to keep focused and going.
I was surprised tho the lady to save me putting dress on and off to see how bra looked under dress gave me a thin knit cardigan to put on back to front.....I was shocked as correct bra and cardigan close fit not my usual loose and baggy I did have a shape but my belly over hang I am at a loss.
I am now on day 2 of getting out for a walk with a walker and it is bringing such joy.
I am slow, it is taking forever and pain is beyond wow but back home document the walk give myself a silly star and tomorrow I will repeat.
I can see you and your brother at times locking horns but I have confidence you will get there he is a wonderful resource and more importantly person in Team Jodie corner.
Oh heck I have done my usual ramble on sorry
Sending much love🥰💜
@@hjcdormouse7337 aww I'm glad to hear from you again. It's been a while. I love reading your comments so don't worry about that. Let you said you are in the right road for success so keep up the good work.
Yes my brother have very strong opinions as do I so yes your right we have in the past knock heads but as we have grown we really do know just how far to take it and ask ourselves is it really worth it. Thanks for all the good luck wishes
Look forward to spending to you again very soon.
Keep up the walking,I'm so proud of you and excited about your future. Take one day at a time.
God bless you darling 🤗🥰
It would have been nice if youre brother make food whith you , so we can se what every meal can look like if you whant to eat healthy and loos some weight
