:D No we aint split up yet. it might have been a bit touch&go for the past month or so but I'm too stubborn for that haha! I'm working on ignoring the negatives [forgetfullness!] and focus on the positives, like the Hollyoaks marathon with a bacon sarnie and a cuppa in bed :D *smug*

My weekend has been pretty good. Not so good food wise but not too bad either.

Saturday, I was up at 5am with the dogs, the terrier just won't rest at the moment so she scrabbles at the doo, which is right outside my room. So I got up and sat through in the living room with the mutts and watched a couple of episodes of Bad Girls. This meant that I justified having a bacon sanger at 6am then an egg buttie at 10..
Lunch, I have no idea what I had, I just can't remember now.... I had a text off Biker Boy saying did I want to go for a walk cos it was a nice day, and I'd said yes, but I'd be over after lunch... After lunch turned out to be gone 3 by the time I got there, it did him good to wait haha. We went down to Deeside and had a walk about along the river, which was beautiful. With the exception of the frogs. There was about a 500m stretch of the walk which the path was covered in frogs, half of which were alive and crawling, hopping about, the other half had perished, seemingly in the heat of the sun, or had been squished by bikes or stuff :( It was quite disturbing, seeing so many dead frogs... You're talking hundreds here, I think. A couple hundred at least. I was starting to get choked up, but it's just nature innit.. Can't save them all..

Then we went back to his town and he dropped me off at his, and went "somewhere"... and came home with a heap of indian and a few bottles of grown-up drinks. He said I wasn't to worry about the calories etc cos he's heard that if it's a treat and someone else buys it without you knowing, then the calories go to them, not me. :) haha! He also said that he chose the healthier options where he could... And he had! He'd got the tandoori chicken, plain rice... not sure how the paratha fitted in, but I only had a teeny bit of that :) And the cider. I had too much cider, and was asleep 5 minutes into Armageddon. But still managed to wake up in time for Bruce to save the world. At which point, I started blubbing...!

Todays food has been fine, not gone over :)

Made a lovely salad for lunch tomorrow - Lettuce, cucumber, tomato, gherkin, smoked bavarian ham apparently, salad cream and some black pepper for good measure.
Cant wait til lunchtime tomorrow!!!!

X
 
Aw, he's so sweet!!! lol...xxx

Your salad sounds yummy for tomoz..xx
 
See these are the moments when I feel really welled up inside
just how thoughtful is that you gotta luv em at times lol
Sounds like a brilliant weekend apart from all things froggy I know my house is more exotic than London Zoo what with living with a managerie but I drawn the line at frogs they make me go all sqeemish and yuuckie inside lol
 
Well just to add to the sickening sweetliness of the pink and fluffiness that is me and my fella... sorry :p
I have never seen a red squirrel. Ever. Plenty grey ones, but never a red one. There are meant to be loads up here, and I have never seen a single one. He said that he sees them all the time... B*****rd. Anyway, I thought I saw one once when he was driving and squealed, and he stopped the car, and it was a [albeit rather small] fox... Then another time, I was driving to his in the dark, and again WOW SQUIRREL... no... too big, another fox...
ON THE WAY TO WORK TODAY!!! It really really was a squirrel, it crossed the road in front of my car and I slowed right down, and it truly was a squiggle!!!

I text him when I got to work and this is how it went...
Me - Guess what I nearly ran over today!!!
BB - Another "squirrel"?
Me - Yeah!!! A red one!!!! It ran across the road right in front of me!!!!!
BB - Are you sure it wasn't a fox? :p
Me - Oi! It was small and stopped and looked right at me as if to say "omgz plz dnt squish me, Im rare & beautiful & special just like you are" and I don't think foxes are that rare :p
[no reply from BB - I waited at least half an hour]
Me - ...or maybe it was saying "bugger this, I'm too young to die" haha :p
BB - Nah, it was the first one :D x

HE NEVER PUTS KISSES ON ANYTHING hahahaa

I can't think of anything that makes me squeamish animal-wise.
Wait... Octopusses... GADS. Eurgh... No thanks...

Food!

I've eaten HEAPS today and stayed in my points - I am impressed with myself!

Breakfast one was Special K Creamy Berry Crunch [3.5]
Then 15 minutes of wiifit to limber up for the day ahead [+1 AP]
Breakfast two was two slices of toast and strawberry jam [2.5]

Lunch was that delicious ham salad. Impressively, that made it til 12:10..!! But admittedly only because someone had the audacity to phone me at 11:55 and I was stuck on the phone... haha. Anyway, that was 1.5 points, and a banana too. Total [3]

Tea was a fakey chicken chow mein - blue dragon chow mein sauce, 3/4 pack of noodles, a chicken breast and a heap of beansprouts - [6.5]

45 minutes on Just Dance - [+4 AP]

Random Snacks throughout to day to satisfy gluttony -
A creme egg, an apple, a WW fromage frais, 2 digestives, a cuddle toy and a bag of sour cream snack a jacks. Total [9.5]

So for the food we have a total of 25 points used, which leaves 2 banked, and 5 AP built up too.

:D

And a big ol' smug grin in Aberdeenshire!!!!

AND! I wish people would stop talking babies and weddings to me.... "When do you think you'll move in with him?" "don't you want a baby?" "what's his surname?" "has he asked you to move in yet?"
B U G G E R __ O F F __ P L E A S E !!!!!
It took him a year to call me his girlfriend, for gawds sake, I'm fine with the pace of things, stop trying to rush things for me!!!! This is all cos my best mate met a guy in November, was pregnant in February and is engaged now. I'm happy for her, so long as she's happy. But I can see it going horribly wrong, I hate to say... :(

I think I am all babbled out for the night... blimey it's gone 10.... better hit the hay...

Night x :)
 
No socks in bed, I broke him of that habit, and the alphabetised CDs... but he still folds his pants :p hahahaha!!!

Today, I woke up to 3 or 4 inches of snow.... as stated several times before I work in Finance, and it's the end of the tax year, I NEED TO GET TO WORK!! But... my boss just didn't turn up yesterday with no warning, so I've no rush to get in... There are three roads that I could take to work, one goes across to the A96, one goes down the A947 and one goes alllll the way into Aberdeen and back up to the Airport... And it's country roads for at least 20miles to each main road..! Listening to the radio, the A96 route is apparently HAZARDOUS CONDITIONS, the A947 is CLOSED which leaves the Aberdeen route... Hmm. Might wait a teeny bit longer to see if that's an option.

Better go and clear the car anyway.... Just in case!

Food Update:
Yesterday was a total of 26.5 with no AP.. Oops.

Today:
Scrambled eggs on toast with heaps of black pepper... chokeable amounts of pepper..! REALLY good though!! [4.5]
Then.... An accidental chocolate mousse... [1]
The plan for lunch is leftover stew from tea last night, and a breadroll [5.5]

No idea for supper/tea yet

Eurgh my creep of an ex just sent me a facebook message saying "hugs to keep you warm with the snow"... WTF!?!!! We aren't exactly on pleasant speaking terms, that's really bizarre...

Ah... Biker Boy to the rescue - "A96 is ok, stay slow and keep to the left"....

Just... got to get to the A96 now... haha!!

Have a good, warm day people x
 
and, incidentally, I like his surname better than mine... Hypothetically, I would be a Jenny T instead of a Jenny S... ;)
 
blimming heck you sure do get a lot of snow in Aberdeenshire
hope you have a safe journey into work then hun, keep safe and warm
loving the creepy ex whats with that ? why do ex's think its perfectly ok to send FB messages its like Piff off i'm not interested matie.
 
My ex is always sending me messages... they usually go something like... Stop sending me messages Nicola, we are not together anymore... ;)

Actually spat my tea all over me there!!!! You crazy stalker Nikki!!!!! haha!!!.xx

Hey Jen, hope the weathers better for ya, hate the bloomin snow these days.....we've not got any just bitter cold!!.xx
 
My ex is always sending me messages... they usually go something like... Stop sending me messages Nicola, we are not together anymore... ;)

Couldn't find a smilie of someone plaiting their legs to stop themselves weeing with laughter so this will have to do instead:

:roofles:
 
Exes are priceless sometimes... For the comedy feature... :D

Yesterday was a pretty strange day for me, but all in all, not a bad one :) The way to work, the journey was ok in the end. The A96 was fine for the bit I needed, so I wasn't too late. Well, 3 hours, but the drive was only the last hour of that. Work was ... work. No comment since I'm typing this when I should be working. Then the drive home.. it was slippy because of the slushiness, it was blowing a gale, and I felt like I had no control on the car for a stretch of the dualler. I had to pull over in a layby because it was so scary, but I was brave and headed off again, and made it home ok.

My food yesterday was pretty good though I still feel like I am eating too much. I'm trying to not stuff my face at work. That is one of my drawbacks, I eat too much junk at work. My people who are bad influences off for the Easter weekend, so I should be ok for the next couple of days! Everything I have is weighed, measured, I'm checking the points on the calculator when they don't look right... I had scrambled eggs for breakfast, leftover beef stew for lunch and pasta with ham and philly for tea. I also had a pastrami sandwich when I got in from work, and a bowl of special K at suppertime. 2 chocolate mousses and a heap of fruit...
Total of 27 points.

Today's plan is:

Breakfast - Quorn sausage sarnie, 3 sausages cos Im a piggie :) [4.5]
Morning Snacks - Apple, Banana, chocolate mousse [=3]
Lunch - Tuna pasta salad - 40g pasta, small tin of tuna, 2 tbsp ex-light salad cream, 50g sweetcorn, cucumber, tomato and spring onion [=5]
Tea - fakeaway :) 1/2 jar of WW sweet & sour sauce, 1 quorn crispy fillet and 50g of rice [=6.5] I am making double of that, and keeping half for lunch tomorrow, so when everyone goes to the greasy spoon over the road, I won't be tempted...

This totals 19 for today, which leaves me with 8 points. I was thinking I might go to see Biker Boy tonight, and he made chocolate brownies last night in an attempt to bribe me to go over, but after the panic attack in the car, I didn't really want to drive the 25 miles in the dark in the slush to his house... But if I go tonight, chances are I will be expected to sample a brownie! And he'll have used full fat stuff, so that will take up the remaining 8 points.
If I don't go, I have a WW profiterole dessert in the freezer, which is 3.5 points. I can then have a biccie with my cuppa later, and bank the 3.5 that remains :)


There's a girl I used to work with, in Hull, who moved to Sheffield. She's getting married in July, and the boy and I have been invited. Is it mean if I don't go? It's going to cost us about £300 just for travel and a hotel room, that's not including me getting an outfit, him getting a suit, drinks, and food and general holiday costs... I wouldn't have bothered too much about that, except I was thinking of going to Hull for a cheer us up girly weekend with the girls who still live there, and she said no cos it was "too expensive and too far"... And I've had an alternative suggestion for the weekend, which is a girls night out in Aberdeen with a heap of people from work... I don't have a great deal of female friends here, so I would really like to go and be part of that... I have 13 weigh ins til that weekend, I should be able to lose a bit by then, I could use it as a milestone :D

I just realised, I haven't had a WI update for a while. Since my blip [if you can call it that... the bit where I put on heaps again and ate nowt but junk for near enough a fortnight...], since I started logging things properly on the WW Plan website thingy, I have lost 4 lbs. I completed my 23 Workouts in March, and I'm taking selected measurements and have lost 7cm... Which is pretty motivational, if I am honest!

Needless to say, you can probably tell I am incredibly busy at work today... One more report to run, and then I am OUT of here...!
 
I'd say go to the Aberdeen bash and make a whole heap of new friends
weddings are always quite clicky affairs with the bride not really having time for friends and such probably wouldn't even notice you were not there hun
 
You made me laff cos I thought you were going to complain about the price of the pressie and then it didn't even make it into the list. I'd give it a miss unless you can turn it into romantic weekend with BB but without wanting to be prejudiced is Sheffield a good destination for romance??
 
Hey, I'm totally new but wanted to drop in and say hey! Well done on the loss so far, firstly. Secondly, weddings are a difficult thing - personally I wouldn't go if I wasn't close(or ish) to the friend - it's a long way to travel and the costs would be high. I'm sure the bride would understand - I'm getting married in two years time and although we've not even speculated at the guest lists there are people who will be coming from far away (included my Dad from Australia!) so I fully expect some people to decline the invitation.

Exes are strange strange things aren't they!
 
Ditch the wedding and spend what you would have spend on Sheffield on yourself!!! Go to the AbBash (like that one Nik) and get some new girly friemds, you'll need them throughout your fab weightloss journey for their opinions/tips etc for new clothes/styles etc!!! lol....xxx
 
You might also wanna see about some new girly FRIENDS and not just girly friemds!!!...xxx
 
Haha, I could've just edited it but was too much like hard work, feelin really lazy tonight!!..xxx lol...xx
