Extra Easy Days Trefoil's Trip To Target!

[Trefoil]

Thank you to everyone for your lovely posts!
I have slept nearly all day today and I'm starting to feel better.
I totally admit to living off Heinz tomato soup, lucozade, tea and last night I had some steamed veg. Tried to have some frozen fruit (thawed) but only managed a mouthful.
Also the amount of buttercup syrup I have had for my throat cannot be good...
Unfortunately I have now also been cursed with * week this morning so I am going to have some mini Kievs and beans for tea with a handful of chips and see how that goes.
Expecting the worst on Monday with WI but to be honest, I haven't been this ill for a good few years and for the first time ever I'm not too fussed with having a gain- will have it off soon.

Good to hear from you Ruth, glad you're starting to feel a little bit better. Excellent attitude too- you know you can get it off again quickly if you gain. Though it doesn't sound as though you've been eating much at all :-(
Hope your tea went down OK and you keep improving! X

 

[MilliesMummyx]

Are you aware Ruth that on the whole of minimins, you have the most liked comments? Lol. Achievement! How are you feeling now? x

 

[Torn_Tranquility]

Glad you're feeling a bit better. OH seems to have been struck down with something similar. I am taking preventative vitamin C, as well as eating as many clementines as humanly possible! x

 

[Poppet12]

Zinc is also fab for the immune system T_T! X

 

[Torn_Tranquility]

I shall stock up! Thanks Poppet

 

[Poppet12]

You're welcome zinc and sambucol staved off the worst cold ever just before my wedding day

 

[Trefoil]

Getting there, slowly but surely thank you so much @Torn_Tranquility @Poppet12 @MilliesMummyx @Quins @solange @Tibbs @orangesuitcase @Timeforchange6 @boofle just everyone sorry I've missed anyone!!


Chicken 'fried' rice with veg and chillies and hot sauce... getting there although I've had this and a tin of soup today so not quite back to it...

This is a tin of Heinz chicken soup. I have eaten far too many of these this week and also lots of Heinz Tomato soup...
Tomato = 11.5 Syns
Chicken = 10 Syns

Eeek... never mind though haha!

Also I didn't know I had the most likes, what a privilege hee hee!

Well, I went to bed at 830 and have given up (for now) as I cannot stop coughing, it's driving me mad. So looking like a night sat up on the old sofa. I've had my buttercup syrup, had cold, then lukewarm, then hot water, I've had 4 tbsp honey (good old Google) but still no joy trying to read/go on FB to take my mind off it, I am so exhausted though so it's hard boooo!!

oh no, you still sound really poorly. My husband was like that last year and the only thing that stopped him coughing was Care Pholcodine Linctus (we tried about 4 different types of medicines) It's only about £3 a bottle so thought it'd be rubbish, but it was only one that helped. Hope you managed to get some sleep and feel better soon x

Thank you I will need to have a look at that I think because it's driving me totally bananas :/ I didn't do too badly with sleep in the end just propped myself up loads and managed to nod off! I will get there, just a weekend of relaxing ahead I think!!
Have you got any plans?

Oh no @solange i hope that whatever yours is goes away soon! Yum yum Indian buffet how wonderful, I love Indian food!!! Mixed grills are good, chapatis aren't too bad- when I say mixed grills I mean 1/2 tandoori chickens. Boiled rice. Pickle tray isn't bad. Avoid naan breads if possible. Veg biryani isn't bad either.
I normally have a poppadum, pickle tray and tikka chicken pieces with 1/2 tandoori chicken with raita and rice.
Also avoid onion bhajis and most starters (unfortunately!)

Still about today but I think because I have stopped I am really not with it. Don't feel so good went out for coffee with my parents but since I've been poorly I am massively off coffee so had a spiced apple drink which was nice although probably horrendous Syn wise.
Then had this for lunch

With a large pot of tea and some water. Got invited back up to my parents house where they had put a bit of a spread on food wise (they had the neighbours round) so I picked but had a few bits that I shouldn't have had which will no doubt add to my gain on Monday...
I reckon that I am looking at at least 5lbs with everything I have had to eat and drink. Oh dear :/
