Evilpenguin's food diary

Well today I am pretty happy! :D Was back at college after being off for a couple of days, had an exam first thing and passed it with full marks :D And tomorrow morning I'm going to a uni applicant open day which should be fun, and will get to see my college mate. Then I'm going to get mother's day gifts (bf is paying of course) and also buying booze as tomorrow it's my birthday celebrations :D not having a big thing, its only a 23rd and I can't afford to go out anyway:rolleyes:, so just me and the bf in the house with a bottle of booze :D so err flexi syns tomorrow ;) My actual bday isn't til Tues, think I am having a steak dinner, a la SW! :drool: And for afters I will not be having any birthday cake - even tho the temptation of a TARDIS cake is really hard to resist!! - I'm allowing myself 1 thing from the bakery aisle. Might go for a danish pastry, or a whoopie pie, or a piece of cheesecake :drool: ah who knows lol :)

Aaand tomorrow is WI day! I hope I've lost this damn 2.5lb gain! Will be weighing in early, around 8.30am ish, as I have to leave to get to that open day thing for 10am.. so if I don't lose the gain I am totally blaming the early weigh in :p

Also!! I got myself a tub of this today, think I'll have it tomorrow after dinner! (which is either spag bol or meatballs can't decide)

devilmoo combines an udderly decadant mixture of natural and chocolate flavour frozen yogurt with swirls of chocolate-flavoured sauce and rich brownie chunks, all topped with milk chocolate stars. It tastes really naughty, but contains just 3% fat and 151kcal!


Seriously - 7.5 syns for the whole tub:eek:? I dunno if I'll like frozen yoghurt but it's chocolate so I probably won't care:D! They had loads of flavours. Yoomoo to hit supermarket shelves :: yoomoo Got mine in Morrisons for £1.50 or something. If anyone's interested!

Posting a food diary seperately as I have rambled on for too long in this post lol.
 
Food diary for today - EE!

Breakfast: skinny latte (HEA) oaty bar (3.5 syns)
Lunch: ham sandwich (HEB, 1.5 syns for blue cheese LC) satsuma, beetroot crisps (2.5 syns)
Dinner: chilli and lime fish fusion (7 syns) with SW chips, carrots, broccoli, parsnips, sweetcorn and tartar sauce (2 syns for 1tbsp)
Snacks: greek style cherry muller (0.5 syns) yoomoo (7.5 syns)
Total syns: 24.5

Oops - have eaten all my syns without realising! To be fair, I shared a few of the beetroot crisps so could probably lose a half syn off them ;):D Ah well, what can you do with 1 syn anyway? Will just eat superfree till its coming out my ears if I get peckish later on. I have strawbs and apples and bananas - no excuses really :D

I shall! It sounds bloody delicious, so I hope it's good!

Thanks. Going to do biological science! Starting to freak out a bit and considering quitting it all and becoming a hippy or something lol. We have been getting told little bits of uni level work, it's going to be so hard. So tomorrow we should get a few demos/tasters, hoping they put my mind at ease about it all. Nothing worse than feeling like you won't understand the subject/aren't good enough etc. The lecturer is a complete tool though so I blame him :)
 
I was quite nervous about going to uni but once there you will be fine, the work tends to be challenging but everyone's in the same boat really lol, should definitely give it a bash anyway and see how it goes. I did a course I really didn't enjoy just for the sake of I'd started so might as well finish it lol! If you don't like it you can always become a hippy then ;-) totally want some yoomoo now! Defo pick some up next time I'm at Asda, good range of flavours too. X

I'm really excited! But bricking it lol. Been working in admin since I was 17 so this is a massive change and have made so many sacrifices, I can't give it up lol.
 
Might have my yoomoo tonight! No syns left though. Hmph!! Might sacrifice all of Sunday's syns seeing as I'll be flexi synning tomorrow.
 
Go for it so you can tell me how it is lol! At 7 syns you could just have few less syns for like 2 days and it's covered ;-) x

Lol I ate it!! It was good. I've never had frozen yoghurt before so maybe it's normal but it was quite crystally? The chocolate was tangy like fromage frais. The brownie bits were really nice, just not enough of them lol. It's worth the syns if you consider ben & Jerrys is like double the syns! Good for an ice cream fix. Gonna try the fruit flavours next! :)
 
Ben and jerrys frozen yoghurt is pretty low in syns from what I remember and tastes really good! Easier to exercise portion control with these mini tubs though lol and they are only £1 in Asda so probably get couple to try like the sound of the tropical and blueberry ones yum! X

Thanks ladies! Also, just got a dress bought for me for my birthday - size 18!!!! I have no idea why it fits but it does!! :D chuffed! It's got umbrellas on it lol :)
 
Yay nice one :) I kind of find that with clothes - I buy smaller sizes if they are on sale or cheap on eBay and expect to have to slim in to them but often when I try them they fit already it's strange x

It's very strange! We popped out to the shopping centre to get mothers day gifts and I saw monsoon had a sale on so went in for a look as I quite fancy a long summer dress, and monsoon is usually pricey and the sales are few and far between! I saw the umbrella one but the biggest they go up to is a 22 (I'm a 24/26 in most shops) but I thought ack try it on anyway, it was too big! They didn't have a 20 so I just tried the 18 anyway and it fitted perfectly :D was in shock lol. Bf was quick to drag me out after that lol think he saw my eyes light up at fitting into their clothes. He got me cute shoes to go with it!

Chuffed! But I'm scared of shrinking out of it lol
 
Awesome it's great when you fit into a smaller size than expecting, even though it's just a number (I will always buy whatever fits best rather than trying to squeeze into a smaller size just for the sake of it) it's always nice to see it becoming a smaller number! :D oooh shoes I love shoes, currently my OH is in despair because I want to keep all my shoes haha must have about 100 pairs and more in the cupboard haha! Shoes will always fit though ;-) how did your uni thing go was that today? x
 
Nah I'm not really bothered about the number, well not really really bothered lol. I'm not like set on being a size 10 or anything! Will be happy when I'm happy iykwim. With this dress the material was quite floaty and stretchy that's why I tried the 22, and when it was too big I was surprised, and cos I liked it so much I thought I'd see how the 18 was. I actually left the fitting room to hunt down my bf for his opinion - I thought it looked good and fitted well but I knew he'd be honest and tell me if it looked too small! I know that in reality it's probably a 22/24 with an 18 on the label, but I'm still happy!! :)

Oh it was rubbish! The same open day they had in August basically, even though they said it was for applicants only, which I thought would mean they'd have more info and better taster sessions. Me and my mate were pissed off after 30mins so we just left lol. There's another one in April at my 1st choice uni I hope that will be better!! Even if it's not it's my 1st choice so I wanna visit again to be sure :)
 
Hey, just been reading through your diary a bit, just wanted to say congrats on the weight loss so far, you're doing so well! :D xx
