Thanks for your comments girls....feeling much better today.
Was taking it easy (again.. :D )this morning and remembered that it was my swimming day. Had one of those debates with myself about whether I wanted to bother to go and decided it was good for me. Glad I went as not only did I have a really nice swim but also a very nice time chatting to the women who were there.
So did my 8 widths then 10mins jacuzzi and 10 mins in steam room.
Called in at Tesco and bought a ready meal, Chicken Korma with rice. Don't very often resort to them but I knew that I would be tired when I got home.
Just having a doze when my sister phoned and we had a good chat and laugh.
My other sister had phone this morning, the one with the "demanding" OH!, and spent a good 1/2hour talking to her so today has ben very good.
Back pain is now returning but then I expected that... Have to be grateful for small mercies! ... :sigh:

Todays Menu:
Breakfast - Branflakes 45g + Milk 5floz
Lunch - Bread + Butter + Eggs scrambled 2
Snack - Banana
Dinner - Chicken Korma
Supper - Crackerbread 4 + L.C.Cheese 1
Extra - Milk 10floz

Total 36PP

Thanks Daisy. Do get very upset and depressed sometimes with the ongoing back problem..but hey ho! have to just try to grin and bear it!
Ready meal wasn't such a good idea as it was too spicy and .. guess what?! ... allergic reaction... :D

Glad you enjoyed your swimming session, sounds fab! xx Hope the backache subsides soon enough though :) I really hope I'm still close to my sister when I'm older etc, but only time will tell!

Thanks Libby. My family have never been very close. We had a very disfunctional life as youngsters and all of us lived seperately since our young teens. I have written about it in my first posts on my Blog if you are interested in reading it.

Went rushing off to doctors this morning as I thought I had an appointment at 11.50. One of those times where all the traffic lights were against me, cars were turning right and not being able to turn and even one lorry that turned left couldn't get round so had to wait for road to clear!! Just got to surgery in time and checked in only to realise that app is for tomorrow... :doh:
Anyway was able to pick up the doctors letter for the OU..£26 paid..daylight robbery.. :mad:
Did quite a lot of jobs today which have been piling up. Particularly because I have made up my mind to have a go at the EMA for my course..last exam for this module. Telephoned OU and had a word about registering for next one but don't have to do that for another couple of months. I'll know by then whether I have passed or have to resit.
Been everso good food wise.. :innocent0002:

Breakfast - Branflakes 45g + Milk
Lunch - Bread + Cheese 30g
Snack - Dig. Biscuits 2 + Banana
Dinner - Ham 3oz + Carrot + Cabbage & Prunes in Juice 4oz + Icecream 3oz
Supper - Yogurt
Extra - Milk 3/4pt

Total 29PP
 
Oh no to the allergic reaction, not keen on ready meals myself!

Sorry if I sounded intrusive with such a personal issue as family Emm :) Didn't mean anything in a malicious way! xx

Turning up on the wrong day - that sounds like something I would easily do, lol! Oopsie! :)

Expensive indeed, auch! Good luck for the EMA :) Am sure you'll do a great job!

Biscuits and ice cream do sound extremely yummy ;)

All in all not a bad day! Hope the back pain isn't as bad tomorrow, glad you got some bits and bobs done - i hate having odd jobs left to do, and for the next 2 years i'll always have some outstanding work/studying, aaargh! xx

Didn't feel that your remarks were in the least bit intrusive Libby, in fact nice of you to mention it.
Thanks for the comments.
 
Sorry to hear about the allergic reaction! Hope you're ok today and all goes well at the doctors,opps about going yesterday,easy mistake to make!
That's good you got the letter you needed from the doctors while you were there.
Not much fun with the back pain so I understand it gets you down at times!
 
Not good news about the allergic reaction. Do you know which ingredient caused it? Hope you are feeling better now. xxx

I am prone to reactions to spicy things and this was a particularly spicy chicken korma. Usually buy those as they are a quite mild spice.

Doctors visit went well. He was in a very nice amiable mood and was quite happy to discuss the points about my diagnosis. As there was no mention of the ailments on my record he could hardly quote otherwise. Did appeal to him for a better time to get my flu' jab as 10am is far too early for me. So all arranged for next Tueday afternoon.
Decided to send back the airwalker as it really doesn't fit what I had expected it to be. Stride length on it is only about 2' at the most and even in my state I don't feel that is a workout in any shape or form.

Food has been good again:
Breakfast - Branflakes 45g + Milk 5floz
Lunch - Bread + Cheese 30g
Snack - Dig. Biscuits 2 + Banana
Dinner - Lambs Liver 4oz + Ba.Beans 3oz
Supper - Yogurt + Blueberries
Extras - Milk 10floz

Total = 29PP
 
Food looks good and I'm glad all went well at the doctors today,fair enough with the air walker,no good keeping it if it's not what you wanted!

Thanks Daisy and Libby.
Don't think I shall bother to get any other equipment. I'll just do some cycling exercises when I'm in bed or something similar.

Back pain was really awful this morning!! Took 2 Co-Codamol and Naproxen but it didn't seem to have very much effect. Really struggled getting to doctors for blood test. Asked why another one so soon and was told that I am anemic and was I feeling tired all the time? .. I told her "tired" is my middle name! .. :D
Called into an organic cafe and had celeriac soup for lunch. Can't say I was at all impressed with it altho' the bread was rather delish. Was annoyed that lots of others that came in after me were being served first and let them know I was very displeased. Also decided to complain about their yukky tables. Not once did anyone make any attempt to clean a table when clearing it and the tops were all sticky and yucky!
Then went to have my usual hairdo so all nice and presentable for tutorial tomorrow. Will have to make sure I put alarm on so I can take tablets very early in the morning.
Quite a saga one way and another ..:rolleyes:
Food wise I was really good so very pleased with myself.

Breakfast - Oats 45g + Milk5floz
Lunch - Soup (yuk) + Bread + Butter
Snack - Bread + Butter + Banana
Dinner - Pork 4oz + Cabbage + Carrot + Apple Sauce & Prunes 4oz + Icecream 3oz
Supper - Yogurt 125g
Extra - Milk 10floz

Total = 29PP
 
Food looks good, shame about the soup though! xx

Really hope that your back pain isn't as bad tomorrow, *hugs* Hope everything comes back OK with the blood tests! :)

Yucky tables are worth complaining about imo! Not only is it unhygienic but purely disgusting, who knows what could be on that table!

Good luck(?) for the tutorial tomorrow, am sure your hair looks fab and you always look elegant and presentable anyway!

Enjoy your weekend Emm!
