Got some stuff from Lush with birthday money off my best mate. Played Plants Vs Zombies in Pret waiting for Mum.

That's great news on being transferred back to your GP!
I'm planning on going to see Black Swan tomorrow, I hope the cinema isn't too packed. I hate it when you can't move in the foyer for the queues of people.
I've never seen Mexican quorn burgers - will keep an eye out for them. Are the refried beans from a tin? Are they free? Your dinner looked really good on Tuesday - couldn't you have sent the excess my way?! :)
 
Hope you get to see Black Swan. We're gonna break Orange Wednesday tradition and try and see The King's Speech at the local cinema one night before I'm on my lates next week.

I've only ever found the Mexican Quorn burgers at Asda! They're in the chilled section and around £2 for a pack of two quarter pounders :)
Yup tinned refried beans and when I had access to SW online they were free :D
Hehe the dogs got half a spud with some cottage cheese on each ;)

Lunch: Waffle (2.5), Quorn sausages, 'fried' eggs, half tin of beans, wholemeal toast (HexB1), and tomato sauce (1)

Oh I suck!!! I don't know why but I'm really struggling with SW this time round and finding it SO difficult to not give in to evil temptations :eek:

Friday night my Mum and Sister had a takeaway, and I didn't. Saturday we were in Pret and they had no sushi and I desperately, desperately wanted one of their sandwiches but I didn't-I got a superfruit salad.
But then my Sister called to ask me and Mum to meet her for tea at the veggie place we go to and it just went downhill from there. I should have had the veggie burger, but I got the garlic bread with cheese :eek: Then for going the pics we stopped off at Sainsbury's and I bought a Toblerone (smallest gift sized type one) coz Mum bought chocolate. Then we went the pub to wait for the pics to open and I had a whisky. Had a Twister in the intermission. Then had a bloody Aero Lamb and Creme Egg when I got in :eek: :cry:
I'm so, so embarrassed by all that, I really am. And I nearly didn't write it, but feel that I should just get it out.

Gonna try my best with today and then try for an absolute 100% week next week. I CAN do this! I know I can :rolleyes:
 
Better day today but I do just want to eat chocolate, like ALL THE TIME! Weird!
And I mean like serious cravings! And now that I'm making more of an effort to be proper veggie I am constantly craving chicken. Lame! Lol

Lunch: Beans, Quorn sausages, waffle (2.5), wholemeal toast (HexB1), and tomato sauce (1)

Tea: M&S count on us veggie moussaka (6), little jackets, salad, cucumber, tomato's, and feta & low fat cheese (HexA1 + half HexA2)

Snack: Activia fat free. 1 Hotel Chocolat choc (3) And a Fibre Plus (HexB2)

Drinks: Coffee (milk rest of HexA2) Coke Zero. Squash. Options (2)

Syns used: 14.5

ETA: Stayed up late to watch a film and I was absolutely starving. Almost caved in and had yet more chocolate, but decided on low fat Supernoodles and a few Quorn pieces instead. I probably should have resisted, but better than the chocolate eh?! Well hope so :eek:
