Getting back in zone, to loose for good!!

Hello.

This morning I had arranged to see my mate at the gym for breakfast :party0051: at 8.45am and then to do a work out, or the other way around. Anyway, I'd been sitting in the coffee shop drinking my tea and it was getting on to 9.20am, so called her, no answer.. thought she must be running late and was driving, but the minute I hung up, she called me back.. Seems that, she had Sunday down to meet and was still in bed :zz:, and I obviously had Saturday down, hence me being there looking like Billy no mates :giggle: for the last 5 mins, :eek:.. So.. it was do I go and do a work out on my own (first time I've been for 9 weeks), or do I go home and just come back tomorrow.

I almost walked out to the car park, when I got to the doors and thought, you silly cow.. So back in I went. Got into gym, did 20 mins on treadmill uphill, then machines, then swam 20 lengths in pool :character00116:. I just had an energy burst and I could have honestly gone on, but didn't.. I was starving. So am very pleased with myself :happy036:. So have arranged to get to the gym for 9.30am tomorrow to meet again.


OH wants to go to cinema this eve, so said yes, then said lets eat out, so said yes to cinema and no to eating out as out tomorrow afternoon and really don't want to go over my syns :).

I haven't quite worked out your Red day. I have always had Red Days. I only have the Pasta n Sauce made with water on a Green day (free) and I presume you are perhaps using Jacket Potato as your HE B?
 
Morning T. Thanks for that, glad i took the plunge to go. Went to F & B.s last night and was not good. Anyway moving on, lol. Went to WI this morn as have day off and lost 1lb. Gutted that if i'd not gone last night i'd have lost at least 2lb, but that's my card's dealt this week. Will now work hard to get 3 off for next week, no more temptations :). Will update food diary later. Xx

Hi T

Not too bad thanks hun, had a meeting with work again this morning of redundancy's (getting fed up with them all now), but there is a tiny glimmer of hope, my project will cease to exist as it does, however, I had a chat this morn and there will be a small budget still next year, but to deliver in a different way. Role's and jobs spec will need to be defined, but I've started to look at how I can put that together now and I'll be doing the trial run from December anyway til I get my notice, so hope that will stand me in good stead to get that role when it goes out.

Food wise today, hmm, couldn't decide whether to do stir fry with noodles or speg bol.. so now doing speg bol as only 3 of us in.

10 syns EE
bfast - bananna
lunch - small w/meal roll (b) 2 slices of lean turkey and a huge pack of pineapple. Sushi
(1/2)
Dinner - Speg Bol made with Dolmio Light (4), ex lean mince, tomatoes, mushrooms and peppers, Speghetti, 40 g low fat grated cheddar (a).
Desert - ww yogurt and fruit salad.

There are new twix primo's out, works out to 5 syns each, so havin one of those as well this eve. So that works out to 9.5 syns.

Ended up having a shapers bar for 4 syns, so that was 8.5 syns used.

Well what do you know it.. I have just planned my next 2 days worth of food.

Thursday dinner is Salmon Steaks - with cheese and mustard (1syn) , small jacket and oven roasted tomatoes (Family are having pie and chips).
