Week One Front

Week One Side
My front and side will obviously have changed very little in a week. You’ll also notice the dip in the right shoulder. Thats the result of four reconstructive style surgeries to increase mobility and use following a fall during my service. At last check up, I have lost 33% capacity compared to a normal fit person my age.

Mexican Pulled Beef with Crisp Salad
By Far the best Recipe this week was the Mexican Pulled Beef with Crisp Salad. We had it as a family on Monday night and it was to die for, then we had our close friends, read extended family, come over Tuesday and we had it again and there wasn’t a scrap on a plate anywhere.
