👩‍🌾 So weird how just a week ago it was still sunny and summer. Feels like autumn arrived overnight!

[@MeMyDogAndBooks]

I know right? I am in my element LOL

[@amyjayexo]

I totally do the same with crisps, I can’t stop with the big bags!! I have to stop buying them cause I can’t control myself 😅

[@MeMyDogAndBooks]

Same! I shouldn’t have bought them!!!

[@CAROLINAPARISLONDON]

I’m a new French subscriber, very happy to have come across your wonderful channel! 📚🧡 Merci Johanna.👩🏻‍🌾😁🙏🏻✨

[@MeMyDogAndBooks]

Bonjour! Merci! (My french is not good and basic, sorry) your english is superb. THanks so much for watching and subscribing my friend x

[@pamelalynn3855]

You are not alone on your sabotage journey !! Honey roasted peanuts - a whole packet of!!!🤢

[@MeMyDogAndBooks]

I'd totally eat a whole bag of honey roasted peanuts but yeah would be filled with regrets afterwards.

[@sarahchapple5359]

I love your vlogs 🩷 👨‍🌾 Thankyou for keeping us all entertained every week. Lots of book chat .. what could be better…. but your costing me a fortune. My TBR pile is like the leaning tower now 😂 Hope you have a lovely week… love and hugs to both Patti and Lucy and of course yourself 🤗🥰 📚 xx

[@MeMyDogAndBooks]

eek! sorry for the book costs he he he! I'm the same when I watch other booktubers too. And thanks for the hugs x

[@PattiReadsALot]

I couldn’t agree more about food from McDonald’s or other fast food making me feel bleh and slightly angry afterwards. Glad I’m not alone 😂I certainly didn’t notice it until my 20s, sadly. A pumpkin patch is right up my alley too….good choice!

[@MeMyDogAndBooks]

Same here! Now it’s the last thing I’d wanna order

[@margaridaferreira8029]

I'm just like you. I'm lactose intolerant and sometimes I eat stuff that I know will make me sick and I never understood why do I make myself feel the pain for days just for 5min of pleasure. Love the vlog as usual 🪴 (dont have a garden emoji, so I'm leaving you this lovely plant)

[@MeMyDogAndBooks]

apparently over 80% of the population are lactose intolerant so it's maybe a food that we just haven't developed to tolerate well. thanks for watching and hope you are well.

[@paulamarieart]

I have to ask, what the heck are messages at the co-op 😂 I read the Sober Diaries by Claire Pooley when I stopped drinking too. I also loved Mrs D is going without by Lotta Dann. I'm sure we are twin souls. The doggos look mega cute in their Halloween accessories 😊

[@MeMyDogAndBooks]

LOLs messages = groceries (it's a scots thing) and the co-op is a supermarket called the co-operative. How spooky hardly anyone i know has read her sober diaries!!

[@wendy-bookworm]

Did you ask about giving pumpkin to the birds? It's non native so bad for any of our wildlife. I get 3/4 through those giant bags of crisps start feeling sick but still force them in until the bag is empty then feel physically terrible. So glad pringles aren't vegan anymore because that was just total text book self sabotage. 🏡

[@MeMyDogAndBooks]

Ah thanks for the bird feeding tip! I didn't realise that and thankfully don't have any pumpkin yet so good to know. Oh the self sabotage is real and yes agree re the pringles!

[@Lilybear3721]

I can so relate to your self sabotage!

[@MeMyDogAndBooks]

I glad it's not just me but also sorry it hits you too!

[@michelleneal2023]

Hey, Johanna!!! I'm looking forward to reading Blue Sisters. I know it's gonna be good. I can relate to eating snacks that are not good for you. I love my chips as well. I be thinking a house isn't a house without snacks in it. Crazy huh? Great video and loving the book hauls. Take care, love!!!😊😊😊🪴

[@MeMyDogAndBooks]

thanks for watching buddy, look forward to your thoughts on Blue Sisters - I do hope you like. and yeah agree re the snacks in the house x

[@michelleneal2023]

I love looking at the books in TKMax they always have lovely and interesting editions but I agree the stickers are SO annoying! Thanks for another lovely vlog 😊

[@MeMyDogAndBooks]

I love seeing what a wee surprise you can find in their bookshelves.

[@caoilo6812]

I completely get what you mean about eating stuff you shouldn't. Trust me it is a mistake that will happen from time to time. I have had IBS for over 21 years and I still do it. I think the best you can do is to try not to be annoyed at yourself. The pain is enough of a reminder ❤

[@MeMyDogAndBooks]

that's a good point the pain is enough!

[@MJ-in-Canada]

I love anything salty🧂or savoury but sweets tempt me occasionally like the time I ate an entire bag of chocolate bikkies. My doctor told me my cholesterol was approaching the dangerously high level so I’ve given up self-sabotaging. Now, I only indulge at Easter, my birthday in June, Thanksgiving, and Christmas. Knowing that I can go overboard on those special occasions carries me through the times that I’m craving junk food. I’ve been “good” for a year (yay!) and have a normal cholesterol level. The secret to giving up unhealthy snacks is to have healthy snacks that are easily at-hand and easy to prepare.

[@MJ-in-Canada]

Forgot this.🌻

[@MeMyDogAndBooks]

agree! always have healthy subs about i didn't and normally do, I buy mexican corn tortillas that are mainly just made of corn and cut them up and bake and have with salsa as my savoury treat but I had ran out and indulged. Health scares can push you to stay on the healthier side I know. Super glad to hear about your cholesterol is back to normal levels.

[@MeMyDogAndBooks]

aww thanks as always for watching x

[@cosybookswithdogs]

Ive got IBS-D and a big bag of crisps would definitely give me brain fog and other symptoms! Great vlog as usual to relax to even though I don't read many thrillers. Hope you manage to relax in-between work. 🪴🐝🌼

[@MeMyDogAndBooks]

Same it's IBS-D i have! My stomach has eased since (for now) thankfully, thanks for watching.
