Football Tonight - The Second big test

[Christovee]

The first big test was last Saturday when I went out for a friends birthday in London, stayed out until 3:30am and not a morsel of food or alcohol passed my lips. Am very proud of myself.

So the second big test is watching England play on the TV tonight. I avoid watching England matches in pubs as I usually surrounded by racist idiots who ruin the enjoyment of the game so I will watch it with my Mum. This is usually accompanied with alcoholic beverages and lots of nibbles (like pringles and bit of pizza). Instead I have saved a bar and will attempt to make some crisps out of a packet of vegetable soup.

So wish me luck and good luck to anyone else facing the same situation. England losing must not become an excuse for a binge.

Oh and on a completely different note, good luck Alibongo tonight on your weigh-in.

Thanks for remembering me Chris.
I have my fingers crossed. I know I haven't strayed at all, but I am still in WW mode where you go every week in the hope you have lost something only to see you haven't.

I have been toying with the idea of crisps, but am worried I am going to muck it up. I have a veg pack left for my tea, so might try tonight.

Good luck for the match. I am sure you will be fine. Will your mum be a good support for you?

 

[Christovee]

Yes, my Mum is very supportive. In fact, she's paying half my weekly fee so she definitely doesn't want me to cheat as I'll be wasting her money!

I accidentally skipped a packet on Monday, so I have one to play with. If it all goes wrong I'll just have a chocolate shake instead.

 

[Alibongo]

you have the right idea, and with your mum by your side you will be fine.

My mum is being supportive and calls everyday. I think she will join at some point.

Good luck tonight Ali and Christovee you will be fine tonight with your bar.

Let us know what happens with the crisps!

 

[Christovee]

I was thinking maybe they would work better if I deep fried then rather than in the microwave?

No?

 

[Alibongo]

well, I just had veg crisps for my tea, and they are pretty good actually. would definitely make again, tasted slightly cheesy to me, mmm, probably try chicken next time. took a little longer to cook than the recipe said about 2.5 minutes in 30 second bursts.

 

[Christovee]

Well, I was too nervous to eat anything during that disaster. However, now I want to eat my own weight in crispy shredded chilli beef and special fried rice.

But I won't. Why make a bad day worse, eh?
