ProPoints 17th times a charm!!!

Scales are very handy, awful to get obsessed with tho, especially if counting cals! I got to a stage where i was weighing individual pieces of bread and even weighing veg once, opps!
I weigh almost EVERYTHING.. I do weigh Veg but only frozen and PP'd veg...
Also if I want 100g chicken fillet, and its 103g, i'll cut off the extra 3g... I'm a but.. My Dad does be in stitches at me

My family sigh at me when they see me weighing anything :p i have to do it discretely/when they've left the room!

My mams ok with me doin it but everyone else is like "oh I cudnt weigh my food all the time" and "aren't u being too strict on urself....it's the weekend!" So I try and do it when they're not looking. Blue In face from trying to explain that after a while I know how much 50g Philly is for example but until then I need to weigh and check. Plus exhausted from trying to explain to my sisters that I do shift work and that the weekend doesn't really mean the same as it does to them....

Ya the Grand Canal (it will never be Bord Gais Energy Theatre!!!)...
So getting pedicure and manicure done in advance for the wedding on the wednesday morn, then to my friends for a quick drink (at 2pm in the day!), then taxi booked to bring us up, cocktails, then dinner booked on 'the boat' near IFSC with more cocktails and then the show over in Grand Canal! Cant wait! Got Thursday off work so im gona enjoy it!!! :)
 
ok so ive been googling the boat. I have to verify but think its the Cill Airne and its def the bar not the restaurant.....

Any ideas of what to have wud be appreciated. I know im saving my weeklies but i like knowing in advance and im fairly good at sticking to it.... plus with cocktails-my weeklies are gona be out the window so id like to not be toooo bad with food....

Was thinking the chowder as the veloute is just a roux of butter and flour and otherwise stock and fish so maybe 8PP? with no bread which im fine with....

For mains was thinking the cajun chicken burger (4) without the bun which wouldnt bother me. Then its just mayo (4), onion ring (not sure if its DF or not) and chips (10)...
Id never be able to leave some of the steak behind (shudnt eat 10oz!), or the beer battered onion rings!!!!
dont like oysters, or horesradish sauce so thats a few out......
