60 painful hilly miles with my cycling club, I dropped down 2 groups in an effort to minimise the agony. Cramped after 33 miles, pure torture to ride home. Dug deep, every hill I was on the verge of seizing up in quads and hamstrings. Managed to complete the ride.

Snack at home slice of quiche

Weighed in 12'11 from 13'1. I'm sure there's some fluid loss, but I'm counting it. Back In old target range of 12'10. Felt like I've lost weight all week, trousers are much looser.

Banana snack while waiting at hospital for X-ray... no dramas

L. So hungry , was offered a mission deli wrap with chicken and salad. Just worked out the syns... oh dear. 10.5 for the wrap , 2 for the mayo light, 1 for the Lucy Bee that the chicken had been cooked in... whopping 13.5 syns....

30 miles hill session on bike, was fading by the last 5 miles. It's going to be a long haul back to fitness and I'm taking the pain at the moment.
Banana as soon as I got back to caravan.

My mum had made a lovely chili con carne , normally we have it on Wednesdays but my eldest is away tomorrow so we switched days, genius!
Famished after the hard ride, I could've eaten a whole garlic bread, curbed it to 2 pieces. I reckon 2 syns for the chili, plain boiled rice, I made a bowl of salad and will work the syns for garlic bread out.

Hills out to Goudhurst. Lovely old village. Then the ploughed fields near home. It's the Ploughjng Match this Saturday, big event in the country calendar!
