ProPoints Karen's 'Scenic Route to Target' Diary

[UKSerena]

Had a bit of a binge today so feeling a bit sorry for myself. The food shopping arrived and I forgot I had treated myself to 100g wonka bar (my new fave chocolate) and despite budgeting my propoints for the day I ate it regardless. It was 15pp and I had 3 weeklies left after today's food so I've used them and taken 6pp off of tomorrow and 6pp off of Tuesday to make up for it before WI on Wednesday. How's your weekend treating you?x

Hey Sweetie! Funnily enough I was wrestling my head about binging earlier, I think it might be the clocks going back which has done it?!? EVERYONE keeps talking about Wonka Bars, I've not had it myself! I'm too addicted to Peanut Butter Kit Kat Chunkys to stray ;-) x

Aaah maybe you're right. I woke up at 8am and felt starving which is unusual for that early but of course it was actually 9am. Plus I only had fruit for brekkie and then salad and soup for lunch to save my points for roast dinner..backfired a bit lol. Luckily I don't like peanut butter so the kit kats aren't a problem for me but the wonka shortbread bars are sooo yummy. Will have to avoid them from now on...can't be trusted. X

There's lots of Different Wonka Bars isn't there? I loveeee Peanut Butter, Pre-WW my Weekly Treat was a Jar of Sunpat Smooth at a colossal 56pp! No wonder I was so fat lol! X

The only place I usually go to in Gravesend is my physio at Gravesend Community Hospital at the start of the one way system so trying to find my sister who was waiting to be picked up from the station was quite challenging lol. Are you prepared for the storm that's on it's way? I've spent the afternoon making my garden storm proof which meant organising my garage so there was space to put stuff..knackered now but the wind is definitely picking up so glad I got it done.x

We've been storm-proofing the garden too,made sure I picked up every last bit of dog poo,don't want that flying round and hitting the windows at 80mph! Lol. Xx

Haha, I made sure I did that too. Although if have 3 dogs that are poo machines so I'll probably have to go out and clear it up again before bed! X

I've seen at least 3 different types. But after loving the shortbread one so much I'm scared to try the others haha. Wow 56pp for peanut butter, that is colossal. But saying that I'd easily use 40pp on a pack of bakery cookies in one sitting. Could never do that now..too much guilt afterwards lol.x
