[CAPRICORN]

Woop woop -I was a good girl and MADE myself have something for dinner sooooooo for the final time :-

today looks like this:-
250ml semi (A)
pineapple
yellow plums
roast chicken -wants using up
lettuce
cucumber
tomato
pepper
tickled onions
tickled cabbage
pineapple
3 ryvita (B)
hm mustard mayo chicken (1)
tickled onions
fibre plus (B)
250ml semi (A)

which leaves me at 2A+B and 1 syn.... so a slight improvement -at least I got my A+Bs used

Hopefully if hubby escapes from work early (about lunch time) and the weather is good enough we will be going for a tootle around the golf course -oooooohhh more body magic,
So I will be up early to do the shred so i can get my hair washed (takes an age to dry) .... so I don't go out looking like a scruff bucket...

Ela ine -stop putting yourself down :copon: -hope you have had a good evening....
----------------------------------------------------
Sun -3 syns used and day 6 shred completed
Mon 2 syns used and day 7 "shredded", 10 min body blast and 45mins mowing lawn
Tue 2.5 syns used and day 8 "shredded" X 2
Wed 1 syn used and day 9 "shredded" + 10min belly fat blaster + 10min Ab ripper
Thu
Fri
Sat

 

[soccermom]

well done for finishing the day off with dinner and thanks for my indian pattie recipe. Guess what we are having saturday night

 

[CAPRICORN]

Good morning all

Soccermom -hope you like the patties -I haven't done them in a while, must do them soon,,,,

Well I haven't got my shred done yet as hubby is still milling around under my feet -so I will do it this evening. Hopefully he will get back from work around lunch time so we can get out for that tootle around the golf course which means my meals will be a bit higgeldy piggeldy .... so then today is going to be green :-

• 250ml semi (A)
• piece vegetable n feta tortilla (0.5 heB)
  [*]orange
• piece vegetable n feta tortilla (0.5heB)
  [*]1/2 avocado (7.5)- if Im at home for lunch
  [*]lettuce
  [*]cucumber
  [*]tomato
  [*]peppers
  [*]tickled beetroot
  [*]tickled cabbage
  [*]onion
• activia (2.5)
• frozen cherries
• frozen raspberries
• potato n onion layer
• pineapple
• melon
• fibre plus (B)
• 250ml semi (A)

SO thats 2A+Bs and a possible 10syns -It looks a little odd but I figure if I have a piece of frittata for brekkie it will keep me ticking over in case we go out early, then if I get time I will grab the 2nd piece to cover me for lunch annnnd if I AM in the house I will have my avocado n salad with it

Right I will get off and wash my hair and then grab brekkie -have a great day everyone, no doubt I will be back later

 

[.Nicki.]

Have fun x

 

[wenchie]

good morning!

I had an un-hungry day yesterday, too - I'm blaming the unaccustomed sun .

I LOVE your mini-goals! Broken down like it looks so attainable (which it totally is - your journey so far's been awesome)



Have a lovely day!

 

[sarah83]

Mmm your food today looks lovely Capricorn.
Once I get some energy back to start cooking again, that's just the sort of thing I want to be eating!!
And I think your tortilla for breakfast and lunch is perfectly acceptable!!

Happy shredding later, in a vague attempt to join in all these shred threads, I've bought Davina's pregnancy DVD, so I'm going to kick that off after work. The reviews say it's quite easy going and doesn't really work up a sweat but I'm ok with that - my exercise at the moment is limited to just walking so don't want anything too tough!

Hope you have a lovely day - enjoy the sunshine if you do go out (and it's sunny there)

makes perfect sense to me

 

[Monkey_Monkey_Underpants]

It makes sense to me, too, Capricorn; I had lots of those.

Scarily, I have no mini-targets left.
Just a

great,

big,

fat,

hairy,

TARGET

kind of major-target, that is now tantalisingly close, but approaching only very, very, very slowly now!

And I love the dangles picture on your Nepal Just Giving page.
I popped in for a quick look. I will, by Easter, have a good slug of "Offline" money to put on mine, as my sponsor form for swimming is mounting up quite nicely.
There's still such a long way to go, isn't there? Have you got any more ideas for "big" fundraising projects? I'm contemplating having a barn dance, but am a bit about the responsibility, and the amount of organisation it will take! Still - we need the big things as well as the drip-feed of little things, don't we?

And well done on all that exercise. You'll certainly be pretty fit by the time those pesky Himalayas come into view. I hope I will too: the swimming is helping, but in a bizarre way I'm actually looking forward to getting back to Jillian!

Right. Back to some more lurking. I mean work. Of course I mean work!

 

[CAPRICORN]

Good evening all :wavey:

I got here eventually - oooohh and excitement of excitement I went out today in one of my new dresses (have only worn a dress once since I got married nearly 8 years ago ) ...anyhoo I put on my SIZE 16 Maxi dress with a little open knit black bolero thingy and I felt amazing :giggle:, and it was lovely walking around the golf course not feeling all hot n bothered :bliss: -just need to get in all the others now
Anyhoo we had the walk soooo my meal plan did change a bit *kell suprise*

250ml semi (A)
piece vegetable n feta tortilla (0.5 heB)
orange
piece vegetable n feta tortilla (0.5heB) -eaten at 3:30 when we got back
potato n onion layer
2 huge oriental plums
...........
still have these to eat :-
fibre plus (B)
250ml semi (A)

so 2 A+B but NO syns -still at least I have eaten proper stuff AND best of all Im learning that I can still stick to SW when Im out n about or thrown a curve ball - and best of all that my focus is now no longer entirely on my belly

We stopped off at the naafi on the way back and I removed all 10 boxes of fibre plus bars from their shelves -well they are hit n miss about getting them in so now Im safe for quite a while . ooohh and :copon: I haven't done the shred today because as soon as I got back and got the dinner on I went in the bifbafbof and dyed my hair BUT I will get it done tomorrow ....and I did have a 3hr walk

Wenchie - once I saw it all written down like that it seems within my grasp :cross:

Sarah - take it nice n gently, have you considered swimming? I don't know if you have looked at the la redoute site much but when I was "browsing" yesterday there seemed to be quite a few bits in with other stuff -I nearly sent you links but didn't want to swamp you

Hiya Jim... Im hoping that the car boot in May will raise a bit to add to my account :cross:, Im having a right ole fettle to get rid of as much stuff as I can. I have no big plans at the moment as even though the squaddy community is really supportive there are just so many events going on that it seems unfair to put more pressure on, I will come up with something though Im sure and failing that then when I get back to the UK I have a few ideas..
Good luck with all that swimming -Im still not willing to shoe-horn myself into a cossie yet

Right I had better get on and catch up... have a lovely evening all and keep at it:happy036:

 

[CAPRICORN]

Good Morning all

Back on track -day 10 "shredded" :character00115:

So then, after the last week n a bit being all over the place I have just realised why -hubby has been on that course -not at work, so he has been home at all different hours etc.. SO I will be starting my new week on Sunday back in my usual routine :sign0151:

Anyhoo I have decided on a green day today even though Im doing hubby the goan pork curry..
so mine should look like this:-

• 250ml semi (A)
• big oriental plum thingy
  [*]frittata (B)
• apple
• 1/2 avocado (7)
  [*]lettuce
  [*]cucumber
  [*]tomato
  [*]peppers
  [*]onions
  [*]tickled cabbage
  [*]tickled beetroot
• frozen cherries
• frozen raspberries
• activia (2.5)
• cottage cheese
  [*]salad *as above*
• pineapple
• 250ml semi (A)
• fibre plus (B)

So I make that 2A+B and 9.5syns -thats not too bad at all,
I will be getting some more recipes typed to my PC today -I only have about 6 weeks until the car boot and Im planning on trying to sell most of my good food guide etc, they are expensive out here and I have heard that the German locals love English cook books etc (I have plenty of them to get rid of too) -so Im hoping to raise a few funds towards my sponsorship AND clear some clutter from the house :cross:

Right -time for me to get my brekkie -have a lovely day everyone and I will try and catch up with everyone later...

[sarah83]

Morning Capricorn!
I'd love to go swimming but unfortunately I can't easily get to a pool as neither me nor hubby drive (YET - he started lessons this week!), so my options would be getting home at 6pm and jumping on a bus to the nearest pool and I'm not even sure how late the buses run, or joining the hotel gym by my office and going mornings or lunchtimes, but it's £28 a month which I don't think I can justify at the moment.
Was too tired to do my Davina DVD last night though so had a gorgeous soak in the bath instead

I did check out La Redoute thanks for the link, and picked 3 things in the sale I really fancied, but when I got to check out they said 2 of them had sold out , but I'll have a look again. I was a bit dubious because they only go up to a 16, but all the other maternity trousers I've tried in an 18 have been huge so maybe I'd be ok in 16's... I'll have another peek later today (when I should be working )

Hope you have a good day and enjoy your avocado!

PICTURE! PICTURE! PICTURE!
:happy036: :bliss:

 

[wenchie]

Morning Capricorn et al - I second Elaine's call for a picture, incidentally, your dress sounds lovely and perfect for a warm walk!

Getting Fibre pluses here can be a bit hit or miss, too (or, I suspect, they appear on the shelves and everyone's so glad to see them they all buy 4 boxes and they vanish off the shelves again!)... I currently have 6 boxes stockpiled

Hope it's as lovely there as it is here today (isn't if fab to finally have spring!?)

 

[Ela ine]

Oppsie we were all (three of us!) typing at the same time! teehee!

Anyway - where's the picture? Need something to make my friday
:banana dancer:

 

[CAPRICORN]

Hello ladies

No photo Im affraid -I will get hubby to get a pic next time I put it on -probably Saturday if we pop out (and it isn't pee-ing it down)
Then I will need to find the disc to load the camera back onto the PC as we had it serviced and had to have everything taken back to factory settings -so I lost all that kind of stuff

Wenchie -I can only get fibre plus bars in the naafis out here €2.69 a sodding box -but they are so hit n miss at having them in that Im affraid I have been a selfish moo and cleared the shelf -but, well -needs must ehhh

Sarah -thats a shame about the swimming, still as long as you enjoy what exercise you do and only do what you fancy -thats the main thing....
Hope you get some maternity clothes to tide you over... the thing with la redoute is they are constantly adding to their sales all the time so its a case of keep checking...
If you see anything in their spring range I have a code for £30 off when you spend £60 -which might be of use -(there are the usual conditions on it though) -let me know if you are interested and I will PM you the info...

Hope you all have a lovely day

Man alive that's a good idea, mine would be a veeeeeeeeeeeery lost list! Suppose it would keep me amused for a while, lol!

:giggle: mine was a stonker when I started too -you could just do the list for the 1st couple of stones to get you started

How is this week going?
