Hi Val, Going well, I see!

Guess what I bought today?? - A Boots chocolate mint thing! I just had to try one. Don't know if it's the same, it's mint nougat. I couldn't see anything else (of course, supplies maybe down due to stockpiling in Sussex!). Anyway, it's too late to try it now but I'm sure I'll find time tomorrow.

I've been rather good foodwise today and have now got on the heated blanket ready for bed as it is quite cold up here.

I will be making soup as well tomorrow - I have more time - and have bought some green lentils which I will do with some veg and tomatoes and loads of garlic.

Have a good day tomorrow Pomooky XXX

oh dear ............
went on massive binge had the following -
2 cheese & onion crusty rolls
chicken & mushroom pasty
2 hi-fi bars
shapers mint choc bar
mince pie
banana
mint club
if i'd had something light for tea i could have got away with the roast & pudding but no, because i think i've already ruined the day by not following s/w to the "t" i think i've failed and might as well carry on i'm all or nothing know i'm going to have a s*** weigh in this week as it's too close to my weigh in day (tues) to claw it back. oh well all i can do is draw a line under it and start afresh xx

Hi Val,

Just try to stop now and have something sw tonight.

It may still be ok for wi tomorrow but you have to draw that infamous line now!

All is not lost. The calories from todays food can't possibly be turned into fat overnight! So don't panic hunni xxx

You've had some good days this week and they may well still give you a sts or even a loss x

Most importantly, don't get upset xxx lots of love xxx

 

[valerie11]

Hi Val,

But you haven't done that so all credit to you...well done!

[skinnydawn]
