Hey Jen, feels like i've been absent for ages!!!!

Just cant get the time to get round all the houses here!!

that we pesky half on...its so frustratin isnt it!!??

Go for it this week chick and obliterate it and more!!!.xx
 
Oh my word... strangest thing just happened...!
I got a text saying "Can I come round?" from the fella. "What to my house? Now? Why, are you ok?"

...

"yeah just wanna get out on the bike"...

Not "Want to see you.." haha.

So he's just been sat here with me, the dogs and my parents, watching Total Wipeout, and drinking tea... Its like a parallel universe or something!!! Really nice though!!!

I know what you mean, Linz... we're all so chatty, it takes a bit of time! haha.

Food today has been fine, my tea kinda made HEAPS. I had half a head of broccoli, carrot, courgette, onion, peppers, mushrooms and quorn, a tin of tomatoes and 300ml veggie stock, black pepper.... Boiled that all for a while, and it made about 3 portions.

Not bad!
 
What was it like? did you have it with anything/ :)

sounds like a nice eve.
My OH is getting on my *its tonight. grr.
 
Just on it's own, it was nice, filling, I'd maybe want more spices in it though, but Im not sure what... paprika maybe :)

And cheese on top :p
 
:D Never ever in a million years will we women ever be able to fathom men completely different species altogether haha!!!
But I'll hazard a guess and say he was obviously missing you but didn't want you to know it
 
Cheers :D Yes, she sure is a character... !

Yeah it has been good. Kinda feel like it's over already though... hehe.

Ok, so he didn't post me postcards... when he was here the other day he left two in strategic places in the house :D
Last night he'd made a pasta bake, with chorizo, spinach, and a creamy cheesey tomatoey sauce... It was so good, we had that with broccoli. And there was a toffee cake for dessert, which, in my defence, I had a portion of which was half the size of the slab he had!

We've been invited to a party, it's a girl at my work's birthday, and I think we'll go for a couple of drinks but not really to stay too long. Thing is, it is pink themed. We're both redheads, really, so this does not bode well... I have got him a pink tie, which will look amazing with a black shirt. As for me...? Eep. No idea yet! I got a pink "dress" from ebay, which has turned out too small [US size 20-22 not UK size 20-22, my mistake] and it's too slut-short for me anyway.. The idea was that over leggings. Hmm...
I've got 3 weeks, but the rate I am going, it still won't fit. So I need to crack on with Ebay...! Everything pink looks horrendously old fashioned, and would make me look like a lampshade. Frills, tassles, bowes...

What do people reckon about maxi dresses on larger figures? I cant decide if they are a good thing, or if I would be better just wearing a genuine bedsheet as a toga...

I could get a pink top to wear with jeans. That would do :D Eurgh I hate themes. Why can't people just let you wear what you like!!!

Food today -
Breakfast - beans on toast
Lunch - none
Tea - will be lamb rogan josh :D mmHMM
and a bottle of kopparberg!!

I did have the opportunity to go out for tea with him and his family, but his sister and her fiance are up for the first time since they got engaged, and I felt it should be a proper family occasion... Plus... well, you lot and Biker are well aware of my views on weddings, so I decided that I'd leave him to deal with the awkwardness of that "when's your turn" discussion..
But now, writing that, I feel like I am being rude. I honestly do not mean to be. I'll make a doubly important effort when he comes back from his next trip, to be a wonderful person :p

It does, incidentally, turn out, that he wants us to cancel London because he wants to watch the football. Not for the fear of football lager louts in London. I totally got the wrong end of the stick there, and subsequently cried. What a wuss.!!! I dont care if he wants to watch football, I have no idea why I reacted like that... But now he won't pick a date for London so I have no idea whats happening there. *sigh* He said we can go to Aviemore to see the polar bear in June though. He had BETTER NOT pull out of that or I will kill him.

:)

Off to do meal plans for the week. Hurrah!
 
I feel a bit miffed on your behalf too Jen, and have to say would have been very narked if I was in your shoes
wouldn't mind so much but could he watch the footie on screen we have some blinding sports bars in London
I really hope for his saftey haha! You get to see the Polar bear otherwise I fear he could end up being bear food.

With the Maxi dress don't think it's a question of if they look ok on large woman it's more to do with height taller women look better in them than short folks do
 
haha, if it was on TV, there would have been canned laughter at my reaction Kals, I tell ya. I was lying there on the sofa, with his belly as a cushion, and he said completely out of the blue "you don't mind me wanting to watch the Cup Final, do you?"

First I looked like this, without the weights...:character00115:

Then this... :grumble:

Then "I want a shower" :0bathtime::cry:

Then... "Cup of tea, Darling?" [he's only "darling" in a sarcastic manner.... In my head, this is what I am doing to him.... :pcwhack:

Haha!! Turns out there is a Grand Prix that weekend too. HOW BLOODY CONVENIENT!!!!
 
Last edited:
Argh don't mention the Grand Prix
how grown men can get so excited about
blokes driving around a track fast beats me
 
I would say it keeps him quiet for a couple of hours, but I get "AW ACE, JEN COME SEE THIS CRASH!" haha
 
Wow, it took me about 3 hrs to drink one bottle of cider. Hmm. No worries for me turning into an alcoholic there then!!

AND! We have a date set for polar bear spotting, and also... ALSO.. "Why don't we take a picnic? You can practise stuff when I'm away"...
I am SO looking forward to this challenge!!!! hehe. I'm going to Asda on Monday to look at picnic stuff hahaha!!!!

Night people, Im off to the swimming pool in the morning :|!!
 
Ok, so 8am turned into 2pm, but I did it!!!! I smell of chlorine! Hurrah!!!

Food today:
2 slices wholemeal bread, 2 poached eggs, 1/2 tin of beans, 2 quorn sausages
Banana
0% Fat Yogurt and a white options
chicken and bacon salad
Quorn veggie stew thing with pasta

Gawd damnit. I'm doing it again. Trying to follow 3 diets in one go. It is NOT working, stop it stop it stop it!!!! I am going to emigrate my plans ON TO THE FRIDGE DOOR and that will help. Yus.

But I did do something good. I went to the pool :) And I did 45 minutes on Just Dance too. And I investigated a membership at a place that has a pool and a gym, I think I might go for it. It's within my price scale, it's a 6 month membership, and, I went to look round the place today and I liked it. So... I'm going to go back tomorrow, and join I think. Biker'll tell me off, til he realises I'm using it :) hehe. When I moved here, I had a membership for the gym in town, but it was too far to go to actually use it, so I cancelled as soon as I was able to. This one, is quite close to work, and quite close to his, its open before work too, so I could in theory go before work. And it stays open late too.

My cuppa tea is on the table behind me. My phone beeped, for a text, and I didn't look what I was doing... Now, my hand is burnt and there is tea everywhere... OOPS!!! What a tart........
 
Yay go Jen
just what I could do with a nice swim

haha @ 3 plans
wholeheartedly know what you mean
but still better to follow 3 than none at all haha!!
 
Well Jen - I have to say I'm not surprised you were a bit upset. But sounds like BB has now redeemed hisself by sorting out to visit the polar bear!

Anyway: WELL DONE YOU! For getting yourself to the swimming pool that's excellent work. It's getting there in the first place that is the hardest bit I always find. I loved going swimming until a few months ago, one of my ex-clients (and a really horrible one - I can't wait for him to mess up again and go back to prison! how mean is that?!) was there all the time and now I won't go on my own. LOSER. Anyway, the gym/pool thing sounds good - once you've paid for it you might as well go and parting with dosh should be a good motivator!

I made quorn 'pigs in blankets' today for a picnic - they were fabby dabby do! Summat you would probably like since you appreciate quorn as well :)
 
Well done on the swimmin Jen and defo go for the membership. makes it a lot easier to actually go when your not forkin out cash everytime u go!!..xxx
 
I don't mind the pink theme too much, if I didn't have The Fella to kit out... but we'll be fine. I hope. :S I'm looking forward to the pink cocktails at least... :D

I had the day off work today and I had the day completely to myself, which means I have "food optimised" my way to a very full belly, had my three favouritist meals in a SW style, and even managed a curly wurly. I started the day with Confessions of a Shopaholic, a big breakfast, and a lovely cup of Yorkshire tea. Can't beat a nice, strong cup of Yorkshire tea..

Breakfast was beans, mushrooms, quorn sausages and 2 slices of wholemeal toast [HxB]. 1 syn for the spread on the toast.

Lunch - Chicken Chow Mein stir fry. A heap of chicken, beanshoots, carrot, half a pack of ribbon noodles and half a sachet of chow mein sauce. Total 5 syns

Snack - 0% fat yogurt, banana

Tea / Dinner - Thai style green curry. Chicken, baby corn, mangetout, green curry paste, coconut milk and a heap of jasmine rice. Bootiful :) Makes enough to freeze a portion too for later eateries. 3.5 syns per serving for the curry sauce
Followed by a cuppa tea and a curly wurly for 6 syns.

I should only have 15 syns a day, and I had 15.5. Thats not too bad, given my past of serious over-indulgence on days off!

Dogs have been walked, and I spent an hour flailing about playing Just Dance on the Wii. Woop!
I bit the bullet, and had my gym induction too at the new place, this afternoon. I am so stoked and ready to go on this, so looking forward to getting fit fit fit!! :) I finish work officially at 4pm, Biker finishes at 5, half 5, and the gym is easily get-to-able between work and his house, so I'm there instead of waiting for him at work. Or I could go before work. Or I could just go whenever.. I'm so excited. Who knew the gym could do that to me, I'm all a fluster...!

Grand.. Mother is home from work early. I was not expecting that... So long, peace and quiet... :rolleyes:
 
Aw you sounds sooooo motivated with the exercise, fab stuff and brill that you can get a 6 month membership!

V jealous re the Polar Bears :eek:

Your food sounds delicious today too

xx
 
Oooo, those rambutans look weird and kinda freaky...what they taste like??.xxx and dont say rambutans!!! haha!!!
