Beautiful view
That's a gorgeous view Emm
Lovely view - aren't you good to yourself missus, posh lunch on a weekday
I hope you are enjoying the tennis - did you see the interview with Andy Murray the other night? I missed it, but J said it was good.
Happy Friday
That view is off their promotional add..it really doesn't do justice to the place as it must have been taken on quite a dull day methinks.
It may well be nice "posh" surroundings but being a carvery it cost £4.99 for the meal with another £1.50 for a pot of tea which is about what I pay at Morrisons. Well worth the extra few pence just for the lovely view.

Just LOVE this emoticon..makes me laugh every time!

Had another one of my "sleep ins"!
Got up about 4am and watched TV for a bit and then had "breakfast"..or that's what I am counting it as. Back to bed about 5 and didn't wake up until 12noon.
Not at all bothered about that as I certainly feel good for it.
So apart from putting in various amounts of washing I sat and watched Murray win his next match..YAY!!
After all that munching it mostly comes down to the fact of making myself a human dustbin... This obsession I have of not wanting to waste things is why I made the sponge buns and mincepies in the first place just to use up half a jar of mincemeat and some margarine... How ridiculous is that?!!
Now they have all been eaten.. .. I am back to my diet today.
Breakfast - Finn Crisps 4 + Cheese 40g
Lunch - Toast 1slice + Eggs poached 2
Snack - Brazil Nuts 40g
Evening - Salmon tinned 100g + Salad + S.Cream 20g
Supper - Peach small 1
Extra - Milk 180ml
Cals. 1228 Carbs 63 Fat 75 Protein 71 Sugars 31 Fibre 12

My nights vary greatly but like you, if I can't sleep I prefer to get up and do something altho' one of my phobias (and I have quite a few.. :crazy: ) I can't bare to make the slightest noise at night... if I go into the kitchen or bathroom I creep as if the world is listening.. ridiculous I know but come night time I change into this super sensitive idiot! ( don't answer that!
)I put it down to the fact that I spent such a long time in hospital when I was little and in those days no noise was allowed at night time.

Morning Emm - I think it is because it is so still in the night. Sometimes if I am have trouble with a system I am working on, I go to bed really early and get up when the country (or most of it) is asleep - and just like that, I think that even if I sneeze it sounds so loud !
Not being a big TV fan, I mostly go to bed early with a good book - fall asleep and am up by 5am.
Hope you have a good weekend.

Everything was going swimmingly all day today until about an hour ago when the pain shot up my arm and I rushed for the tabs and downed 2 slices of bread and butter with added cheese as mustn't take them on an empty tum.
So now, with a lot of juggling things around I am still way over my cals and carbs stand at 90... :sigh:
And now I am going to stamp my feet all the way into the kitchen and make a cuppa!

Thankyou Bubbly, Nelli and Bev.
My arm had been playing up all day but as I am trying to cut down on the painkiller tabs it suddenly went from 5 to 25 pain level-wise...silly me!
Much better today and like most.. just have to grin and carry on regardless.
I weighed yesterday and found that I had gone up to 193lbs.. not a good start to the day..and by the evening my feet had swollen up with fluid retention. Today I am back to 191.4 which I have been all week so I feel my attempt yesterday has paid off anyway...and much happier bunny too..

I do Bubbly.. in fact I often lay on my bed (which is actually the sofa in my sitting room)

Had a very nice day even tho' I haven't been out anywhere or done anything much.
Lovely and sunny and warm so windows open and plenty of fresh air.
Managed to put my hair in rollers which is great... and no pains in my arm to boot!
Diet gone well and made a delish liver and onions for tea. Put a bit more effort into it which paid off...so lovely thick gravy.
Hope the WI shows the same tomorrow...191.4 which will mean just 1.6lbs gain..:fingerscrossed:
Breakfast (very late) - Eggs scrambled 2 + Rakussen's Crackers 2 + Butter 1pat
Snack - Cheese 40g + Digestive Biscuits 2 + Brazil Nuts 25g
Evening - Liver 148g + Onion + R.Beans 35g + Carrot 70g + Mash 20g + Bisto Gravy
Supper - Raspberries 75g
Extra - Milk 180ml
Cals. 1214 Carbs 68 Fat 68 Protein 78 Sugars 24 Fibre 10

Trying - very!
Glad the arm's better today Emm.
What you said about being up late and creeping around made me smile. I've been know to do this too!
I also get spooked quite easily by noises I hear that I wouldn't bat an eyelid at during the day.
The wee small hours do weird things to our brains!

Morning Emm - glad you are feeling better and sounding upbeat.
My Mum used to make me eat liver when I was a child as she and Dad loved it - and J likes it - especially chicken livers - but while I can cook meat and chicken for him, I cannot cook liver (or remove chicken from the bone)
Glad you had some good weather - rained here all day yesterday and has been doing so off and on this morning.

Thanks Bubbly. Oo! I couldn't go all that while before knowing what's what!
Funny thing Nelli I just don't fancy chicken livers for some unknown reason.
Still feeling okay-ish...Hooray!!

As I hoped my weight is still at 191.4lbs and am quite happy about that!
Onwards and Downwards! :girlpower:
