Day 29 - Not sure of colour yet...

Going away to Oxford with the girls today till tomorrow, so, there's a 3 hour car journey to do first (taking sugar snap peas and an apple for snacks - lol!) and then Lunch in a pub and then probably drinking all afternoon... :-S

Day so far:-

B: Ready brek (HeB) with Milk (HeA) and a coffee.

The rest is to follow. I may update it on my phone as I go along then I can keep track of what I'm having... always good intentions at the start lol!

Exercise: Cleaning & vacuuming out the car before I go and there's sure to be a fair bit of walking involved...

 

[KatyKaty]

Oh dear, good intentions went out the window not long after I went out. Started drinking at 3 (was just supposed to be a chilled afternoons drinking but it lasted till about midnight- lol!)
I had 4 pints (40 syns?), a Greek salad for lunch without the pitta (best of a poor choice) which was delicious- and in my head I've Healthy extra'd the feta (10 syns?), then a couple of cocktails (the proper ones not the cheap rubbish with loads of sugary stuff added) (15 for the pair) then 6 (oops) Gin & slimline tonics. (15 syns) And a curry afterwards. (20?? Probably more!)

It's no surprise that my head now hurts! Soooo yesterday's 100+ syns is being classed as a write off. And going to try and keep syns low for the rest of the week.

Will try and be good today - hopefully the hangover munchies will leave me alone!
