Cookie's diary to be joyously slim

[Cookie21]

The brownie was lovely you get 3 small slices in the pack and I warmed it up too. I have to say I love the cakes you get from graze and they've all been between 3 & 5.5 syns so far (I'm on the light box).

Brett likes some of the snack packs too. I tend to give him the ones with nuts or dried fruit. I'm hoping when my next box arrives on Monday that its full of cakes. They freeze well too.

So I've had my last a & b choice now - milky drink and a hi fi bar so I think I'm done for the night now. It so nice to be home relaxing, it feels like ages as I've not seen Brett properly since Sunday.

I'm back up to 7lbs from target and would love to get there in August. In theory its more than doable, thing is I just need to do it xxx

I'll certainly have a good think about it. It'd be a great incentive that's for sure. Xx

Well its a wet & dull day off for me, weather wise its dull for me I'm enjoying my day off. House is clean, washing done, I've done a bit of exercise and had a nice lunch.

Now I'm nipping out to the shops for a few bits and getting my eyebrows threaded. A painful but necessary beauty fix.

Then when I come home I'll then need to do the grocery shopping but Brett wants to come otherwise I'd have done it already and we've got two coupons for Morrisons so hoping to top up the freeze with my meat purchases.

Food wise its EE but I've still no idea what to prepare for tea. Any ideas? Xx

I've never had my eyebrows threaded but I watched my sister have hers done, that was enough for me, lol, but a few weeks ago, for the first time ever I had them waxed which was fine & they stayed neat for weeks!

Hmmmmmm, not too sure about tea, if you're buying meat at Morrisons how about some chicken stuff, you could have chicken stuffed with cheese & wrapped in bacon, that is nice, otherwise not too sure, you always have yummy meals x

Good evening

How are we all? I hope everyone is well.

Last night Brett and I went to Morrisons to use our two £5 vouchers and stock up on meat & fish. However when we got there, they didn't have much at all. I blame on my fellow SW group as they were buying multiple newspapers for the vouchers and doing some serious stock piling. I only managed to spend one of the vouchers as all the 5% mince beef had gone.

Anyway we also bought some rolls for Brett's lunches next week & a few bits with Brett planning on going to another Morrisons in the morning to get the mince beef. When we got home I decided to split the rolls and slice them before freezing individually as I always do, however, two of them were still raw inside the dough looked grey and it was hard in the middle. Of course Brett said "it's ok I'll still eat it" but I told him no I'd rather ring Morrisons and see if they'll exchange it.

Well the manager did a lot more than I ever expected, and straight away apologised told me to bring the rolls back, offered a replacement, a refund and gave us a £5 voucher as they take customer service very serious. I was gobsmacked, I only asked for an exchange so I was very impressed. (I'm not use to complaining can you tell?) Brett went into today bought 3 packs of extra lean mince beef, fruit & salad stuff. Spent £16 and with the vouchers and refund he spent just under £4.00 and came home with 12 fat tiger bread rolls. Now that's good service.

Anyway last night for tea I made the SW cheesy pasta bake from one if the little booklets. Its gorgeous I added LMC sausages and other veg to it to bulk it out. Works out as a hex a per portion too.

B = banana, berries & yogurt
L = small pasta bake (2) ham & salad, mayo (0.5), doughnut peach


S = fruit salad

D = burger & cheesy chips (a) in w/m roll (b), ketchup (2)
