Well done on the STS and the exercise!
Know the feeling of aches and pains
no pain-no gain?!
Needed to see your lovely food pics again to re-inspire me
And as always you never fail on that front!
PB2 ...what's that?
Hey there couple of the year winner!
As as for inspiring you with my food - I WANT YOUR SPIRALISER! Haha!
PB2 is a powdered peanut butter that you reconstitute with water. It's 45 calls for 2 tbsps and tastes the same as normal PB (to me!)

Well, I was supposed to be going to yoga this morning at 8:45 but I'm not doing it. I'm shattered - even after going to bed last night at nine. I hope I'm not coming down with something. Went to body pump yesterday though and enjoyed it.
Yesterday - Extra Easy
Breakfast - Pumpkin quinoa porridge (1) with blueberries and banana, coffee with almond milk (A in coffee and porridge)
Lunch - Roast dinner soup with chicken
Dinner - Tagliatelle Bolognaise (1 for pinch of Parmesan)
Snacks - Special K bar (B), bread and butter - 12
Total Syns - 14

A coupled days off doesn't make you unworthy! Look how far you've come, it's fab!
Heh. That soup was me desperately using up the old fusty veg in the bottom of the salad drawer. It was nice though, and I've got it for work next week. It'll make a nice change from bloody salad.

I've only been able to get it off Amazon. It's pretty pricy but I love peanut butter so it's worth it to me - plus if think nothing of spending a tenner on a bottle of wine!

just found it on amazon
There is a choc peanut butter one too
.....may get some ...am thinking could add it to scan bran cake instead of cocoa....hmmmm PB2 Powdered Peanut Butter and PB2 with Premium Chocolate. (Pack of 2): Amazon.co.uk: Grocery
Don't know if i've asked you before?.....what camera do you have to take your food pics?

I've got the chocolate one as well, you can usually get a twin pack dealio thing.
I just use my iPhone, take a quick snap and then stick it on Flickr - nothing fancy!

Yup, no luck in H&B, tried one of the supplement shop places as well. They had PBB, which seems similar, but higher calories. Going to order some from Amazon now.

My iphone doesn't take pics that good!

I had an iPhone 4 for ages and then my boss gave me his iPhone 5s (lucky me!) because he upgraded to a 6. The camera is much better I must say.

Monday
Another week begins! I've got a super-dooper meal out booked tomorrow, one of my very close friends has had a massive windfall and is treating a couple of us to a meal at Pollen Street Social. I've written about this place before and I am very excited to be going back. Obviously going to be off plan for the meal (and cocktails!) but I've got quite a bit of exercise booked for the week (starting with a step class tonight - killer!) so I'm hoping this will help.
Yesterday - Extra Easy
Breakfast - Nothing! I didn't haul myself out of bed until ten and then sat around for an hour feeling tired and not well. Coffee with almond milk (Half A)
Lunch - Caribbean chicken curry (1), Half an Uncle Ben's rice pouch (2) - See? Not feeling well!
Dinner - Spicy BBQ chicken (1), jacket potato with LC Light (Half A), Corn on the cob (1 tsp butter - tweaky B), salad
Snacks - WW yogurt, an apple, the crust from a loaf (4) plus 2 tsps butter (tweaky B). Gah! Bread! I bought an uncut loaf to make DS2 my "Ultimate BLT" and the crust nub just SCREAMED to be eaten!

Wow how lovely of your friend to treat you to a meal, don't forget the pics

I know, she's so lovely - I'm very lucky to have her in my life.
Hmmmm - not sure I'll be able to take any pics as it's very subdued lighting in there - last time was a complete disaster photowise, but I promise I will try! None of it is going to be SWable though
It IS an expensive place to go but, honestly, it's worth every single penny. This will be my third visit and last time was better than the first time so I'm hoping we're on an ever upward trajectory! I used to work in Pollen street a million years ago so I love being in that area as it holds so many memories of my flaming youth - ah to be 21 again!

Just had a peek at the menu as well! You're very lucky; it reads beatifully. And I'm now craving scallops...
