Glittermonkey's new leaf

Thanks hun it means a lot. I'll definitely be repeating one exam in august as the stress got the better of me and I had a major anxiety attack. I have to take it in my stride and move on. I have more time now and can take a bit of pressure off myself. I have a condition and until it's sorted things like this are bound to happen, it's the only way to look at it. Believe it or not I'm a million times better then last year, my mental health has grown a lot stronger but obstacles like this are part of recovery I guess. Thanks for your kind words
 
So food wise my food was actually really good. Dealing with a lot of stress at the mo and this is the first time in my life that I haven't stress ate through a difficult situation so I'm delighted at that.

Brunch........2 slices toast and white pudding, hifi bar
Dinner.........slimming world chicken burger and sw chips with a salad
Snacks.........mugshot, options, cereal bar, mullerlight
Hope everyone is doing well!

No hun been under doctors or over 40 years, the medical name for it is palmoplantar pustulosis, say that when you're drunk :giggle:...it's a very rare form of psoriasis and all that can be done is to keep taking the med and monitor it, unfortunately though it creates other problems like arthritis and others way too many to go into to be honest, but right now I am in remission, remission usually lasts about a week if I am lucky and then I'll have another flare up and so the cycle goes on and on, but I was going to say you get used to it, but you don't you accept it is what you do as you have no choice and you have to get on with it, like any other disease or in this case auto-immune disease.
Headache is a little better took a couple of Sudafed that usually helps ...I am an old crock aren't I :giggle:
The thunderstorm we had earlier made the national news :wow: apparently we had a mini tornado hit not 2 minutes from where I live :eek: a bit too close for comfort , sooner have the snow xx

Anyways hun sweet dreams and keep up the good work xxx:hug99: xxx
 
Weighed in today at a loss of 3lbs. Tricked myself with an at home weigh in during the week where I was 5 lb down so it did take away from the loss. Took the batteries out of my scales! Still happy with 3. Went into an Asian food shop and got some rice paper and made hm syn free spring rolls they were yum! Also got a new flavour food essence but didn't know what flavour it was as it was in a different language but it was only 50 cent. Well when I got home I have to say I was shocked it STANK! I Google it and guess what flavour it was?? only GIANT WATER BEETLE!! In the bin it goes lol could only happen to me! Here's my food for the day
Spring rolls
Chicken rice
Orange
2 hifi bars
Hot chocolate
Machti tea
Also got 12545 steps in so it's been a good day...apart from the water beetle lol xx
 
It's super simple. Get some rice paper, soak a sheet for 30 seconds in warm water and place on a damp clean teatowel. In the centre place beansprouts and strips of courgette Carrott and mushroom, add some soy and wrap it up. Place on a hot baking tray and spray all over with frylight. You have to play around with the timing as the instructions were in a different language. I did mine for 20 mins at 220 in the oven. Take out and place on wire rack to harden. The will be kind of translucent as it's rice paper, but they are yum!
 
Just a quick hello to everyone as I've been neglecting my food diary but thankfully not my food! Still really enjoying my walking, did 13000 steps today. Went up the the OH mammy s house and she had made dinner which was yummy but not exactly syn free. Plus his brother and mum started making jokes about people on slimming world which made me a little embarrassed. The OH squeezed my leg under the table then which was nice, I'm lucky I have the support I do. Any hoo here's my food:
Brekky.........porridge and mullerlight, coffee
Lunch..........baked potato with light philidelphia, spinach and tomatoes
Dinner.........pork steak, 1 croquette, mash, cabbage, turnips carrotts.
Snacks........belvita, yogur, matchi latte
