That's good to hear. I'm kind of lucky in that one of OH's colleagues is also a hair and makeup artist on the side and she's offered to do mine for the wedding at mates rates. It's a bonus that she's really good. To be honest I don't mind doing my own makeup (hair I can't do) but OH has offered to pay for it himself so I'm not going to complain!

Oh Lovely! Thats V handy. I was going to always get mine done as i thought a nice treat - and then i realised that whilst 2 of my bridesmaids alwasy have nice hair and make up, the other two are some what.. experimental.. and a tad orange!! So I decided to get them all done as it was easier than trying to approach that battle.

Happy rainy bh Monday! I can't believe it's almost September!! Where has this year gone. I mean seriously!! Just back from a nice short walk with oh, he has a back injury so can't go too far, so we did 3.4m (which was prob a bit much for him-now he is lying on the sofa icing his back poor love!), but it was good to stretch my legs out after yesterday.

We had a lovely eve and a few hours after the roast went to our local for a coffee and a pudding as I had a fair few points to spare! Nice way to spend an hour.

Lots of roast beef left, so making a nice Thai red beef curry for dins. Will add a load of veg to it and serve with brown rice.

Plan for today

B-muesli, skim milk, strawberries & blueberries -6 (inc milk for day)
L-zero veg soup (defo feels like a homemade soup day!), roll, melon, kiwi -3
D- Thai beef curry inc onion, pak choi, baby corn, mange tout, broccoli, with brown rice - 17

26/26, no weeklies used
13 weeklies left

Sounds like you had a lovely evening yesterday Hun, some of the best those nice unplanned relaxed evenings with the OH! Enjoy the rest of the bank holiday - even with the miserable weather!!

 

[rubyeskimo]

You're bank holiday weekend sounds wonderful. We couldn't really do anything due to OH being on call so had to be within 30 minutes of his work at all times! The WW plan sounds interesting to me but I think I'm only just getting my head round SW!

It was lovely hun, relaxed, got loads of the 'to-do' list done, plus some exercise and R&R

Oh thats a bum on him being on call. Hopefully you still had a nice few days. The WW pro points is quite different to SW in how you work out stuff and what is low / high points. I dont eat massively differently, just more aware of how much i am eating and when I am eating for the sake of it if that makes sense?

 

[Mrscush]

hello all

what a rainy day! its been so busy for me, i cant believe its almost 1pm! Quick post from me today (and will be back this eve to check in on your diaries ladies )

B - porridge, skim milk, berries & 1/3rd of a banana (they were massive so i had some of Oh's!!) - 6
L - Veg soup, ww petit pan, fruit salad, apple - 4
S - Eat natural bar - 6 (quite pointy, but a low point lunch and dinner, so sneaked one in!!)
D - chicken and coconut cabbage from this month magazine (but with more chicken than they suggest, as 200g between 2 is not enough in my book!) - 8

24/26 so 2 left for day. No weeklies used.

I will go spinning IF i can get out of work on time (unlikely) but will go in the morning if i cant. So 8 activity points if i can. I have a huge amount of AP's banked, so not too worried if i go tomorrow. Sadly, i am looking forward to WI tomorrow . Will udpate then

[Mrscush]

Didn't end up having the bar as I wasn't hungry at all today. So I'm quite under which is a rare thing. But I threw some olive oil in dinner and will have an options hot choc before bed. Those who read my diary will know I love a cheeky hot choc

Lunches made for tomo and fruit all chopped. And relax...
