Back again!
Ah happy days, used to love getting ready to go out, especially if you had friends around. Mind you I still enjoy the getting ready & putting on the old slap, still have music in the background, only now I'm not going out clubbing or drinking much!
Music is so emotive Dizzy and it does bring back memories, the trouble with a shuffle is you don't know what's coming next, at least with your Nano you can plan what to listen to. Have you lost your dad recently then, deepest sympathy to you Dizzy, it's such a tough time to get through - hope it's a bit easier for you now - never goes away though does it.
Big hugs & hope you enjoy your noodle salad, it does sound tasty, you'll have to let me know what's in it & if it's as good as it sounds.
Take care

Bloody Hell! What a picture. What a haircut! MacKenzie says it doesn't look much like you Mummy.20 years ago eh?
Did used to like a gin and tonic or ten. Kids these days think they invented binge drinking.
Music does bring back really fab memories and lots and lots of emotions.
It does make me feel younger too as it's one of your loves when younger that you neglect when kids come along, like the exercise and the other hobbies and friends too sadly!

Thanks Dotty.
It will be 2 years in June since my dad died actually Dotty. 6 months afterwards my Mum got seriously ill and was in hospital for over 4 months. It was a really worrying and stressful time and during that year was when my eating starting getting worrying and the inevitable weight gain.
She's doing well now, she has a new aortic heart valve. Once she was well on the mend I was able to focus on my diet and with the help of CD have come such a long way now, my dad would be proud of me.

Dinner: 4.45pm
KOREAN NOODLE SALAD (390 calories)
Woo hoo! I had it and it was lovely and it was really easy to prepare. The only cooking was boiling the noodles. This would be an excellent substitute for chinese takeaway. I think I enjoyed it better than a takeaway, so I'm going to give you the recipe.
Korean Noodle Salad
2oz of rice noodles, uncooked weight.
3oz of mushrooms chopped
2oz carrot chopped thin slices
1 spring onion chopped
2oz beansprouts
1 tsp of soy or tamari sauce
1tsp of balsamic vinegar
1oz of unsalted cashew nuts
Prepare the noodles according to package directions, omitting any suggested fat and salt.
Combine cooked and drained noodles with the vegetables and dress the salad with soy sauce, and vinegar. Toss well and sprinkle with cashew nuts before serving.
I decided to have this before cooking the boys dinner to make sure I actually had it tonight. So now need to go and get there's ready. But confident will not pick while doing so.

Hi Dotty
I've just edited the calories in on post above. All of my breakfasts, lunches and dinners are 390 calories (as long as I stick to plan). Evening snack is 130 calories. I'm meant to be on 1300 calories a day.

I think that one's enough for now, thanks!
I don't remember singing to you. Then I don't imagine I would remember. Shame you do!
Haircuts scarey and those eyebrows, very Brooke Shields!
I suppose this is your way of bullying me into some more current pics.
The recipes on the Tesco ediets plan are all really lovely and many of them including the Korean Noodle Salad are huge portions.
Been much better today. Helps going to the gym although I've nasty blisters on my heals. I bought a further pair of boots yesterday some Panama Jacks and then wore them to fetch the boys from school. It was too long a walk to wear new boots and now I am paying with the pain.
How was your day my dear?

Yes I do remember now!
We used to sing it in an exaggerated Devonshire accent I think! Doing anything nice next week?
How about taking a break from dieting and eat healthily instead, build your strength back up for another stink. We should also make a pact to go to bed earlier.
The photos fine. Good memories
Such great memories actually! Dizzy x
