T_T's (hopefully!) dimishing returns!

I imagine some chopped up mushrooms would go really nicely with the pasta! I'll look out for some cheese triangles- I think Lidl do 'light' ones but I didn't realise you could have 5 for a hexa!
You've had a busy day already, good luck for WI

They're great for a HEXA - no weighing! Today was hectic, but good.

Now chilling in a park with my book before WI: it's nice to sit down!

1/2 a pound off - I am a little disappointed, because I've had a great week on plan. But I also know that I've upped the exercise and I've been super busy with work. Inches are dropping. And my consultant agreed that I am owed my platinum body magic. I'm just happy to take a loss at the moment

 

[Torn_Tranquility]

Morning all, it's Fri-yay!

Docs this morning, then off to the event office. I think today is going to be pretty full on! I just hope that tensions have eased somewhat from Wednesday.... (I won't hold my breath!)

B - fresh fruit and yogurt.

L - .... salad and fruit? Whatever I can grab quickly on the go. This may well end up being a little off plan!

D - fish and roast veg.

 

[Poppet12]

Good job on the half off- I know it can be disappointing when you've had a good week but it's good that you've got measurements to compare too!
And I think you've certainly earned that body magic award!

 

[Jenny_b]

well done on the loss, remember its in the right direction x x

 

[Torn_Tranquility]

Yup! And I've always said I'm happy with any loss.

Tired eyes today... Cross referencing, checking and updating all the copy for the website.

Doc said my reaction was odd! But as it is working, she just prescribed me some of the antihistamine that doesn't knock me out! She explained it could still be hayfever that's bothering me.

 

[Torn_Tranquility]

Well, today I nearly caved: I mean, raclette on the street food market?! Instead, I dragged myself to Tesco and got some carrot sticks, quorn and radishes. If, however, a colleague comes bearing cake, I will not be saying no!

 

[Torn_Tranquility]

There was no cake - bullet dodged. But the atmosphere in the office wasn't the best... Difficult situation, and I hope people can be professional enough at the event on Sunday.

I haven't had any syns today... so not sure what I'm going to have!

Will have my HEXB of scan-bran with HEXA of LC light in a bit

 

[Torn_Tranquility]

Syns decided!

Trying a new flavour of popcorn: chili and lime (5.5) and then for pudding a salted caramel custard (9)

Will also use half a syn of oil when cooking, so that puts me on the full 15!

Oooo let me know about the popcorn! And the custard sounds divine well done on the loss- you're doing brilliantly

[Torn_Tranquility]

Thanks Ruth! The popcorn was AMAZING - I love the Portlebay popcorn, and it's so worth the syns. They do a cappuccino one as well! I ordered big bags from Holland and Barrett, but Co-Op stock the 25g bags.

Custard sounds amazing, bet it would go really nice with baked oats using HEB

 

[Torn_Tranquility]

It's delicious! I hadn't thought of having it with baked oats... but that is very fine idea!

My OH appears to have been dreaming about cheerleading, or something; he managed to kick me out of bed twice and kneed me in the back, and then kindly smacked me in the face! Not the best nights sleep....But oh well! I'm fairly convinced he didn't do it intentionally...

Off to the gym this morning.

B - 2x apples and a yogurt.

L - pasta with 1 syn of mayo

D - scan-bran pizzas (HEXA and B)

 

[Poppet12]

That sounds like a restless night! Poor you! My OH was dreaming last night and was shouting about testing the blood :-/
Don't like the sound of the atmosphere- I too hope that people can remain professional tomorrow for you!
I need to get on this popcorn wagon- I'm getting a bit sick of crisps and these sounds like a good alternative...

 

[Torn_Tranquility]

Popcorn is a great alternative - it feels like you get so much more! And some wonderful flavours out there.

Good gym session and a lovely walk home up the steps of doom. It's stunning here today; hoping the weather holds for tomorrow!

Just about to have lunch (2 syns for mayo). Then early evening, we're going into town to see a free circus performance in the park. Very excited

 

[Torn_Tranquility]

WOW - the performance was incredible - really glad we went. Scan-bran pizza's are in the oven now - then I think I'll have quark with options (2) and frozen cherries, then head off for an early night.

That puts me on 4 syns for the day... lower than I'd like, but tomorrow food isn't really going to be in my control; will be a case of grabbing what I can, when I can on site.

 

[Poppet12]

That sounds like a great evening! Circus and pizza, what's not to love!
Hope today goes well for you and everyone behaves

 

[Torn_Tranquility]

Today was amazing! Such a good vibe. Great weather. Lovely people.

Just got home- food onsite wasn't on plan. But I also walked 40k steps- so not too worried. Did have a cheeky cider with the team after we cleared the site. OH is now making me SW mac and cheese.

Such a high after today!
