And now the good bit......Maintaining!

[kim63]

Yes only brought 1 outfit up here so that will have to do! Its a Monsoon dress which i liked initially but not so keen on it now as its a bit big but should be ok!
Its very dependant on how strict the dress code is Ronnie. If they havent stipulated whether its definitely long you should be able to wear short or long. Balls i go to ladies wear both with black tie events. Just wear what u feel comfy in as they're normally long nights! Whats it in aid of? You would always get a New dress or be a bargain hunter like me & look on ebay! X

Off plan.....I do have a very good reason for this tho.....hubby is going on leave for 4 weeks & he hasn't had any since last August & has been working all the hours for the past 9 months, so we're going to celebrate!!!
I lost 0.5lb this week as well which I was very happy with, as I was off plan last weekend! Goes to show that when you get back to healthy eating after a not so healthy weekend, it can be done!
Hopefully my new cycling shoes will be here tomorrow, so with my new Garmain Edge, I'll be back to cycling the lovely hills of Dorset & start to tone this midriff lol!

Had those chicken kebabs in the Officers Mess yesterday with Prince Philip 'dont you know' so made for us!!!!!!
But they're easy to make.....marinade the chicken pieces/cubes in spices that you like, stick them on kebab sticks & then grill
Thanks just off out now with the 'slap' on!!! x

2 days of over indulgence over with.......pizza & booze Friday night, Indian takeaway, bakewell, nuts, cake & biscuits from my Fortnum & Mason hamper yesterday......too much food, but all my Birthday food gone now thank goodness!

We're off on a long walk in a bit, so should walk some of that food off! Not sure on food today as have no food in, so big shop in order!

 

[deb1leo]

We had a great time at my mums birthday, I can't believe she's 60, she certainly doesn't look it!!

I had ribs starter and chicken terriyaki with noodles for main course and we had birthday cake. Also had wine & 2 vodkas!
Back on plan today.

 

[kim63]

Glad you had a good time Debbie, its always lovely having off plan food once in a while, but I do like getting back on plan.

Big Tesco shop done, so all stocked up on lovely healthy food. Hubby home for the next 4 weeks so back to cooking for 2! Not much to eat during the day I know, but I was so full up after the over indulgence of yesterday, Im sure it hasn't done any harm missing out consuming calories lol!
