Tomorrow it will be 10 weeks until I get married (eek!) so after a few too many indulgences I thought that I should return to what I know best... SW! I have been going to the gym 4-5 times a week since the end of February too so not too much damage has been done.
I went out for a three course dinner last night so I'll WI tomorrow morning so that I have a more accurate reading.

I went to a wedding so knew that it wouldn't be a SW friendly day and accepted that. Only got my birthday on 23rd May, hen weekend over the next May bank holiday (in Dublin), and my second hen night on the 7th June when I know that I'll be off plan but apart from that there should be no excuses! Just a shame that when I get home from an exercise class I can't say no to naughties!
Saturday Food Diary...
Brunch - omelette made w/ red onion, mushrooms, bacon, new potatoes, olives & sundried tomatoes (1 syn), banana

Lots of wine/prosecco

So yesterday wasn't really SW friendly as we went out for lunch but I did make healthy choices. I also went to the gym and did Power Yoga for an hour then jogged on the treadmill for 40 minutes!!! Without stopping!!! I never thought I'd be able to do that. Actually tempted to do a 10k after the wedding so I don't lose momentum after the honeymoon.

Aw thanks a million hun! Can't believe how quickly time has gone. Only 23 days till my due days. Madness!!
I'm not the biggest partier but the likes of The Porthouse bar (near Grafton Street) is a good spot and if you're drinking in Temple Bar it will be crazy expensive! There is a good spot called Buskers in Temple Bar actually though! As for food places, fab restaurant called Toscana (Italian) on Dame Street, gorgeous place called The Larder on Parliament Street (fab steak) a BBQ place on George Street called Pitt Bros BBQ! Lovely Mexican on George Street called Acapulco, and an amazing 'fried chicken' place on Dame Street called Crackbird! It's not fast food, it's a sort of trendy 'alternative' place an their soy garlic friend chicken and sides are incredible!! They also do buckets of beer etc, can't recommend enough. For Thai I recommend SABA, it's on South William Street near Stephens Green. I know you're a foody like me so don't want you getting lurred in to the touristy places that are crap! Lol xx

Dinner...
Epic fail... just stuffed my face with chocolate! Add another 7 syns so that's 25 total
