I thought I'd reply on here so we don't take over Lil's diary! When did you go to Vegas? How long were you there for? Any top tips on where to go and what to do? xx

I think we have now discussed this on yours xx

You can have the choc koko milk as a healthy extra on SW! Yay! So weird, last night I saw someone on a local site selling 24 250ml cartons of it for €13 so I'm taking them off her! Brilliant! Xx

Fab lucky girl!! xxxx

Hello lovelies Sorry for the late post today!

Gym session last night was fab: did a good back session and some arm work as well Burned about 240 kcal which is good for a weights workout I think

Eats for today:
B - Banana; Bloobs and Strawbs with FF Greek yoghut and chia seeds; Green Tea; 500ml water
S - 10 almonds
L - Spaghetti carbanara: Wholewheat spaghetti, peas, mushrooms, chicken, bacon, peppers, with ff fromaige frais stirred through with a squeeze of lemon - slimming world dish!
S - 9 Flax Bar; Pineapple
RUN 2.5m, post-run protein shake with dark chocolate almond milk
D - TBC, it was going to be a chickpea curry but I was too tired last night to prep it. Thinking cauliflower rice with chicken of some sort. Any suggestions?
S - First 'naughty' snack this week! Healthy brownie

xxxx

I like nutmilks but daren't try the chocolate coconut one! I have a horrible feeling that once I start I won't be able to stop.

Jessy - you are doing brilliantly. That size 8 wedding dress is within touching distance!

I think I actually was thirsty as I had a green tea and 700ml water and now utterly stuffed.

I must confess I couldn't completely resist the cake. My colleague was going round asking people to have some and I felt bad so had the smallest slither (1/4 normal slice) for about 50kcals.

No run tonight; we were both aching. So nice chilled on plan night .

Night lovelies xxxx

S - Strawbs and bloobs
L - Going out with work colleagues but determined to make it 100% healthy
S - Nuts, 9 Flax bar, Banana
Gym! Post gym protein shake with dark choc almond milk

Congratulations to your cousin! Mine is also getting his a-level results today but he's undecided on if he actually want's to go to uni now! I only just scraped into my second choice uni. It kind of helped that I did the Baccalaureate rather than a-levels and none of the admissions tutors understood the different scoring system so they just let me in anyway. My life would have been so different had I ended up in Swansea, and at the time I was gutted I didn't get in but things have worked out anyway.

You've really given me a craving for chocolate coconut milk now. I'm going to have to buy some on the way home I think!

 

[RiaLou80]

Aaaw if you hadnt made it to Sheff, then we wouldnt have met either honey, so I'm sooo glad you did, I dont know where I would be without you now! :hug99:

I'm joing the gym on Monday so might need your help with some pre-gym snacks to keep me going. xxxxxx

So delighted for your cousin! What a clever clogs! I'm sure he worked super hard to get his first choice so good for him! It's so funny thinking what if isn't it! I wish I hadn't gone to 3rd level though and just worked - I think it would have suited me better as nothing in my life now has anything to do with it but such is life! And here I am heading back to study! Interesting life choices I do make! Ha!

Thanks chick! And I for your sis! Yes he will have done he's always been clever though

It's a weird thought isn't it. But you never know what you'd have done and you might not have met Simon etc because you would probably have been at a different place in your life at the time! xxxx.

I was a little naughty at lunch. I had harrisa lamb in a pitta bread with some mint yoghurt (and some skin on fries) but I enjoyed it, drew a line, and had a healthy afternoon.

Just on way gone from the gym. Did a good circuit, some abs work, and over mile a hill incline running and walking.

Not fancying sausage casserole so doing sausage eggs and sweet potato chips! Yum! xxxx

 

[pippalata]

Food sounds lovely. Come and cook for me please!!

Do you have a fitness plan at the gym or do you just do it as you fancy? xx
