I'm actually looking forward to my weigh in tomorrow. I've been so good all week 
the weeks just seem to be flying by don't they?
I really need some new jeans. Mine are falling down already. I bought my current ones from primark and they are amazing. I hope they still do them as I'd love another pair in a smaller size

Ooh is it the active blend thing? I was looking at that as its got good reviews. I have a nutribullet and literally use it every day for smoothies, soups, marinades and all sorts of stuff. I love it

Thanks, I'm really chuffed about it!
Not sure about food today. I've had porridge this morning but I feel starving today for some reason. I'm trying to hold off eating lunch as we are having fajitas tonight and I don't know how many calories it will be (it's usually loads!). I've bought mini wraps which are less calories that the usual normal sized tortillas, and I've got some refried beans cooking in the slow cooker rather than buying the ready made version. It's literally pinto beans, onion, garlic, chilli, chicken stock and seasoning so I don't think it will be very high in cals. I don't know what else to have with them that won't be really bad for me! Maybe lettuce, salsa and some reduced fat sour cream dip. I'm used to having cheese and guacamole and all the stuff that's bad for you usually haha!

I'm hungry today too. ... Keep reaching for snacks :-(
I do that with the tortilla's too. ... You save on cals but don't feel like you've missed out!
You could have a side salad and have some of the filling with that?
weigh day is always a good day if you're going to go over as you have a whole week to make up for it (That's me theory and I'm sticking with it ;-) )

Well I was contemplating a takeaway tonight but DP is treating me to a burger tomorrow after we have been to pick his new bike up. He knows the way to my heart haha.
Ill go for a wander down to co-op for some salad and see what else I can see. I'm looking forward to it, the beans smell amazing already

Haha I like the question mark. It adds an air of mystery.
Well very surprisingly, after scoffing loads of fajitas, I came just under my days calories at 1434 cals
Well done

Ended up having a KFC last night, but I'd hardly eaten a day so it was still within calories! I can't help feeling bad for it though haha.
I did 10 minutes on my bike this evening before giving up as I'm exhausted and feel a bit ill today. No idea why! Burnt off 120 cals and ended up eating them again which kind of defeats the object.
Breakfast: porridge with honey
Lunch: lime and coriander cous cous
Dinner: chorizo and creamy pesto pasta
Also three coffees with milk and a mars bar
Total: 1578 cals (1500 + 120 from exercise)
Damn Ocado gave me a voucher for £10 off any wine or chocolate so I've ordered a load of chocolate with my shopping!! I've got twix, Mars bars, snickers, malteaster bunnies, 2 finger kit kats, drifter biscuits, curly wurlys and a Lindt dark chocolate with sea salt and caramel bar. Luckily I often have days where I'm way under calories so I may treat myself once a week to a bar. They will last weeks unless my partner gets to them!! I blame ocado haha.
