I wouldn't worry too much Rachael, I'm sure they will be fine. Ours is a new estate and they've obviously just cut corners by putting up flimsy gutters, just doubled the work for themselves, stumers!!

Well I think today could possibly have been the worst day ever, no exageration!! I set of for work at 8am this morning with a blizzard having just started, and then proceeded to get stuck on the motorway for 7 HOURS!! and as if things couldn't get any worse my battery in my car died Had to rope in the dual carriagway to firstly finding jump leads then helping to get car started again. It was just horrendous!!! I really thought I would need to sleep in the car tonight! Hardly had any food either was just horrible!! Eventually some men dug out a near by slip road then one by one we all pushed each others cars up. 9 hours later I finally made it home safe phew!! I've got a few friends no ones heard from yet and I'm just praying they are somewhere safe and its just their battery in their phone that's run out. It's really been horrible here in Scotland today. Hope everyone else has had a better day than I have!!

Today's food:
(B) 2 ww toast 1
ham 1
(L) walkers lite 1.5
alpen bar 1

(D) morrison's southern fried chicken 3.5
home made chips 5
Total.... 15 pts

I plan on spending the remaining points on alcohol after today!!!

Well thank goodness today was declared a snow day and I didn't even have to contemplate travelling to work. It's been awful here in central Scotland, a lot of work colleagues didn't get home till 1am this morn after being stranded from 8am, awful! Others have had to spend the night in school - poor souls!! So who knows whether or not school will be open 2moro?? (I really hope not!)

Anyway had a really lazy day today, started to do a mammoth ironing this afternoon, but reckon I'll need a week's worth of snow days to get through it, it's meeting the ceiling!!

Been a bit awol last few days but alas I am back! and i've stayed on track. Infact I lost another 1.5lbs this week woo hoo It's definately coming off a lot slower this time round but at least it's coming off so I'm not complaining!

Was back at work today we didn't have any kids though, so it was an easy day in preparation for Monday when kids are almost definately back, although the forecast next week is for more snow so I don't know how long they'll be back for??

Been a bit sick today had a bit of trouble with my pill and have been off it for the last 2 months, however, didn't realise how much I could be filled with rage when not on it so I'm back on it as of yesterday and I think that's whats making me sick - not good!! hopefully it'll settle down over next few days!

Anyway going to a gig on Sunday - Sunshine Underground at king tuts and cannot wait, seen them before and they are AMAZING!! Apart from that not doing much more this weekend, hope everyone's had a good week!!

So I've gone and done it again and over indulged this weekend! The thing is I don't even feel like I've really pigged out, just eaten the wrong things, it was inevitable!! Went to a Greek party night on Saturday and the food was delicious! Had Greek sausage to start followed by venison stifado, gorgeous!!! Then out again for dinner on Sunday, had a cajun spiced chicken burger, but gave away almost all my chips!! The killer I think was the 3 glasses of wine :cry:So it's damage limitation for the rest of the week and hoping for a STS!

Concert last night was brilliant, Sunshine Underground are such an amazing band and sooo good live, can't believe they are so unheard of!!

Anyway hope everyone has had a good weekend

Fuzzy I wish it was only 2 more get ups!! We don't finish until Thursday You can imagine the manic rushing around I'll be doing on thurs night/friday!!

Well WI is tomorrow and it's not looking good!! I've been peeking all week, I've definately put weight on and I'm thinking it could be as bad as 2lbs (hanging head in shame) the thing is I've not been terribly bad and I've been pretty much sticking to my points but I have to admit I've been having wee picks here and there (not 2lbs worth tho!!!!!)

anyway think after 2moro's WI the diet will be put to bed until January, stuff it!!

 

[blackwidow]

your choice hun - i cant give you any advice being that ive stuffed my face since october on the whole 'its xmas' front

dont worry about the 2lbs, i know you'll have it off after xmas xxx

 

[calorie crusader]

Well I put on 1lb in the end :sigh: which isn't so bad I suppose, was expecting worse, although I am still a bit miffed that I've put on!! Anyhoo was in stuff it mode yesterday and did have works night out last night which involved a couple of wines but other than that I managed to resist stuffing my face and I've been not too bad since WI.

Sooo, my plan is that I'm going to carry on being good until christmas day, when I'm not even going to think about points once!! Hopefully will be able to keep my determined head on over festive period!!

(B) 2 turkey rashers 1
