Wednesday 16th June
Breakie - kiwi & ff from frais
Lunch (out) - salad of leaves, cherry toms, mushrooms, bacon & beef with vinigraitte but I suspect the meat & mushrooms were fried
Half an Alpen light bar.
2 little round bits of chicken & teaspoon of egg & bacon sandwich filler.
Tea - One pot 'stew', turkey mince, onion, passata, spices, carrots & new potatoes. Pear.
Work - Another dish of stew. A low calorie jelly (don't know what these are like but they're less than 10 calories so thought I'd give them a try) & a pear.

oh, love jelly!! you have made me want some now, but idea of making your Tanya is good. A girl in one of the other offices does this.....she has lots of cut fruit and then has jelly on top! When I see it in the fridge I always want it! So, just remided me again!!
Good low fat sweet! mmm....and you could put some yoghurt in it too....I think!! haha..making things up as I go along here!
Doing well Jan...I dont think there would have been a lot of oil for you to worry about them being fried.

Nothing in Mum's
Breakie - 1 weetabix, blueberries, raspberries & blackberries & skimmed milk
Had to get up early this afternoon coz of another hospital app. So sort of had an extra 'meal' - 1 piece of toast with phili light.
Tea - Baked salmon with salad which included boiled egg & vlf salad cream.
Had a load of rhubarb in the garden so baked all that with ginger & splenda this afternoon. Had some tonight heated with ff from frais on. Overdid the ginger unfortunately
I also cut up a pineapple because it needs using and a few pieces of that found their way into my mouth.
Work, chicken & egg salad with vlf salad cream & a dish of rhubarb & pineapple with another of those jellies.
Now then ..... my hospital app. this afternoon was with a rheumatology nurse specialist. One of the things she said to me was to watch my weight & try not to gain any because of the added pressure on the joints. I mentioned I had lost some and she said I didn't look overweight at all ..... so! .... after I'd snogged her face offD) she told me that every 10lbs you are overweight puts the equivalent of an extra 70lbs pressure on the joints in your hips & legs. At a rough calculation I used to be putting about 35stone of extra pressure on my joints!!! Worth thinking about eh??!!
Funny thing is, except for one intermittently painful toe joint all my problems are in my upper body & arms & hands! ..... I'm not complaining though!! Hopefully I've nipped any potential damage lower down my body in the bud xx

Yeah - Just an age thing compounded by the occupational hazzard of hauling people in & out & up & down beds for too many years before we stopped being 'allowed' to for health & safety reasons
Still - as DH never tires of repeating, it's a hell of a lot better than the alternative. At least if you've got pain you know you're alive LOL!!! xx

Doesn't have to be actual 'exercise' Iris! Just moving about, not giving into the temptation to limit movement because it hurts. You will NEVER convert me to exercise!
