Diary of Ally Bally - the final chapter - it's now!

[Alycyn1980]

Good day all, had my day off yesterday and although I did not overdo it I did have some naughty things but that is what I planned.

Today bn OK so far but I really need to work on drinking more water at the weekends as so far today I have had 2 cups water. Will have couple pints diluting juice at dinner - which we have decided we need to start eating at the dining room table allowing meals to go down properly and so I can concentrate on the food.

OH dad out of hospital - too many Drs all making different decisions so I am not sure what will happen as all they done was change medication which he had been on for 20yrs so I can see him ending up back in in a few wks - fingers crossed he not driving or working machinery if it happens :-\

Well hello to all whoever chooses to have a nosey J

This morning started off OK, got into work no problems then about 830ish the snow started and chaos ensued – roads blocked, cars crashed and not one gritter on the road – typical Aberdeen/shire councils, gritters out on Fri morn when it was raining but snow – why should the gritters come out then?!!! This was all within 15mins of it starting. It is off just now but if it keeps up towards home time then it will freeze but I also live 25miles out of town going through country roads (which should be gritted as it is a bus route) but well...........

Hey,

Glad OH's dad is out of hospital. Fingers crossed he doesn't have to go back in and he gets to recover at home. I hate the snow, totally hate it with a passion. It snowed a tiny bit here yesterday but not enough to lie but it's meant to snow again on Thursday then again at the weekend. Not looking forward to it but my 4 year old will love it as he really wants to make a snowman! He also wanted to dress up in his santa outfit but I put a stop to that!!!

Your sticky gammon sounds lovely. Where did you get the recipe? Care to share it with me?

Hope you have a good day tomorrow.

 

[Alycyn1980]

Well another day and looking forward to making it a 3[SUP]rd[/SUP] day 100% on plan though I do usually mange this until the weekend but now WI day is a Saturday I can enjoy my treat guilt free.

Left early for work this morning and made it in at usual time – roads not to bad snow-wise but there are some people who are too over cautious and are the ones that could possibly cause accidents. On the plus side, got to start early to leave early!!! Hoping there is no snow inbetween time and the roads have cleared up.

Syns for day 11
Syns for week 31

B - 2 x Egg/Bacon Muffin; 2 x coffee; apple
S - Fresh Pineapple; Lge mug hot water/juice

S - Special K Chewy Bar (HEx B); 250ml SS Milk heated (HEx A); Orange Options (2); Snack a Jacks (4.5); 2 x flumps (3)

No tea at lunchtime as I barely made it in the house last night after being stuck in traffic because snow so not taking any chances!!!!

Not sure what having with sausages as just fancied them!!! Will make something up when get home and see what the OH fancies. Have a nosey on the website too.

Just been for an early lunch as leaving early and the office I share with 2 outdoor workers has the air con turned on and it is bloody freezing. I understand that they work outside and feel the heat but they don’t seem the understand that I work indoors and I am used to the heat not the cold – plus I suffer from Reynaud’s which makes it difficult to type when my hands get too cold!!!

Been super busy today and not managed to check Minimins today – major withdrawal!!! Again this is on a Word Doc until I get the chance to copy it across to my diary!!!

Been another quick day at work AND its FRIDAY, I am so looking forward to a long lie. News yesterday that my Great Uncle died so not a great day but he was old. Then today a friend from school who had beaten cervical cancer now have uncureable but treatable cancer in her lungs, liver & possibly her bones. She is so strong & a fighter. Kind of puts things into perspective though, here I am worrying about my weight and she is worrying about her life :-( I know by losing weight it will help with any future problems that may arise if I kept putting the weight on. I have managed to stay on plan but finding it difficult to really care at the moment, last year was not great and I thought ths year would be better but so far it has been worse.

They look lovely! I have some bacon left over from todays brekkie aswell, may try them tomorrow for my breakfast !

 

[Alycyn1980]

Typical Monday morning, I am shattered as no sleep again, seems to a Sunday night trait where I cannot sleep – plus it did not help that we have velux windows and between the strong winds and hail that was on through the night......

Another cold windy day but at least we have no snow and it looks like it is going to miss us completely.

Trying a red day today and I have never really followed this so if anyone can pick anything that is wrong please point it put to me!!!

Update more later xx

 

[Rosielea]

Can you get a sore head from drinking too much water?

Hi here to subscribe.

Yes you can get headache from drinking too much water. I had that 2 days in a row after drining a lot of water so now have lowered it a bit and stick to 2-3 litres fluid per day. I find drinking hot beverage is ok but too much water not good. In summer I have no problem with water but winter seems to bring on bad headache.

 

[Alycyn1980]

Another decent start to the morning, made it into work at decent time as not snow out my way through drivers still driving at 30mph - a pet hate of mine!! Glad did get stuck behind a gritter as road into work had snowdrifts which got ploughed out the way!! All the other roads on the other end on the city are pretty bad with snow with roads closed and crashes everywhere!!!

Got loads to do at work today but I have no motivation at the moment as just so tired. Bit better sleep last night but maybe only a few hours.

[Alycyn1980]

OH had left jelly buttons out & they are my all time fave (the jelly ones from Allsorts). I had 2 and told him to hide the packet as I would have happily ate the whole bag then felt guilty but I may have to invest in some for Saturday!!!

Completed the 1st day of level 1 (for the 5th time). I am hoping that by alternating with C-2-5K I will manage to complete it or at least get to level 2!!! Maed the mistake of thinking that it would be a little easier as I had completed 3wks of C-2-5K it would have been a little easier - not a chance. I am going to be sore 2moro and I am hoping that I will ba able to continue with C-2-5K!!!

OH wanting to watch Incredible Hulk, away to make my Hot Choc and gather my snacks to settle and see if the film is something I am interested in, if not I will head to bed & watch Supersize v Superskinny.

Hope you all have a good night xx
