Well, have decided to sweep Tuesday under the bin, its a no go day for me, really @@ things up, between the cereal and the evening meal which was nice, but the cubed lean steak was like leather, (its the same batch as what we made the asian beef with which was tender as anything) next time if we do this its going to be popped into the slow cooker, the peppers, onions and stock was really nice, and would also be nice with say chicken.

Dinner – Cheese (HEa) and potato pie with beans, bacon (Heb)
Snacks, fresh fruit, coffee with splashes of milk ½ litre of water

weigh day
Just weighed, not expecting to loose anything as not a good week, need to get back on track
Yeah 1lb loss
Yes i lost, but got a bit of a deflated feeling, perhaps its because it could have been better if i hadnt stuffed it up.
TRY HARDER NEXT WEEK - STICK TO YOUR MEALS

Thank you x
Did you like Ruby Tuesday?
We had a bad meal there, as they delivered our main course before we were halfway through our starter, and they couldn't understand that it was a problem.
I've decided that I am going to give Bravissimo a go, after reading an article in this months WW magazine.

The meal was fab, but we didnt have a starter, we just had a main meal with the salad, service was fab - couldnt fault it
Have tried bravimisso shop, but i love the swimwear in la senza, i also used to love the triumph shop but thats closed now tho
Did you have a hangover after the birthday celebrations.
Got to say i just hadchips from local chippy and got to say, they were yuck!

I liked the triumph shop too, so going to give John Lewis a try as well, just need to spend a day doing bra shopping really, instead of quickly trying to find something!
Strangely enough I didn't feel to hungover this morning, but we ate and drank early evening, and I was in bed just after ten, and didn't get up until ten thirty this morning, so perhaps that helped - plus drank loads of water during the night!
