Well done on the new job, Vicki!
p.s. Black pudding is actually very nutritious. When the Famine hit Ireland all those years ago, people would actually make black pudding to keep starvation at bay. Some even went so far as to drink the blood, fresh and hot, from the animal. Blood is packed full of good stuff. Vampires live forever, right?!
BUT... it's pure rank, disgusting, foul, awful, HORRIBLE stuff hahaha pudding that is. Blood too, actually.

Thanks Corky - I was so chuffed. New job asked if they could offer me money, but I explained that I didn't think he could. I didn't want to start married life living 130 miles away from my husband.
Soooooooo pleased and don't mind going to Reading now as I know it's only 4 weeks now
:bliss:

well done on the job vicki and at least for the next 4 weeks you've got the gym to help.
well feeling pap today, went to the hospital canteen for lunch and had fish in batter now feeling :break_diet: so I'm just gonna draw a line under it and re-start tomorrow.
this is what not planning does cos I've ran out of sw friendly meals that i had in the freezer so I didn't take any to work, on the positive side I did do 30 mins exercise on the wii.
things I want to do when I'm smaller,
go on a rollacoaster and be scared to get on cos of the ride, not cos I'm scared the seatbelt won't fit.
buy a daihatsu copen cos they are cute and I can fit in it.
go on a plane for the first time
take up running
expand my clothes shopping stores to every female store there is instead of the usual evans, matalan, ann harvey etc
wear high heels
feel comfortable enough to finally get married
oh and have another baby

Tin of chopped tomatoes
Tbspoon of vinegar
1 can of Orange Fanta ZERO
Peppers
Carrot
Onion
Pineapple
Method
Chop up some peppers onion carrot and pineapple. Add to a pan with the chopped tomatoes, vinegar and Fanta ZERO. Simmer until thickened.
And well done on the job Vicki

:brainfart: I could sodding kick myself this morning :booboo:
You may remember I changed my WI day to Saturday? You do? Good! Because I freaking forgot............until after I'd drank 3 mugs of coffee and eaten my usual 'big weekend breakfast' (a FULL punnet of mushrooms, a FULL red onion, 2 FULL red peppers, 3 BIG eggs and a FULL tin of beans!!!!) of omelette and beans........a rather large plate full even by my standards! :8855:
So no suprises that the scales are telling me I have a STS this week! lol
I'm a tad mad with myself tbh, and in all honesty I've been 100% on plan since my vodka bath last weekend so I think the scales should have been a bit flipping kinder! lol
Oh well, I'll have to wait and see what next week brings

Corkscrew, I'd do another WI in two hours since it takes that long for the food to be processed. A matter of two hours isn't going to throw you off for the entire week, and it may just make the difference between a STS and a small loss.
Good idea Mandy, but I've had another coffee, eaten a big orange and a yoghurt! :giggle:
Not to worry
I'll wait until next Saturday now - not gonna start scale hopping cos that will deffo mess with my head lolI'll just stay on plan and :fingerscrossed: for next week
I've been thinking (while doing housework) tho, and i've had too many green days. I love green days, but they have NEVER worked for me. In the past I've even gained weight on green
I don't seem to tolerate carbs very well even though I don't go mad with them and still eat plenty of superfree.So, this coming week is going to be mainly red........including my wine tonight! :8855:
How's your back now Mandy?

Oh Corkey, how annoying! I think I would have another WI tomorrow just to see if you're on track, but at least it didn't show a gain and it might mean a nice big loss for next Saturday. Set a reminder on your phone
Reminder set! lol I've put a post it note on my alarm clock, bathroom door, and I've set my phone
lol I've got a carp memory sometimes! lol I just launch into my weekend with glee Tis annoying though Sarah, you're not wrong there!
