I have no idea what is wrong with the fella tonight. Lots of unhappy, angry words tonight, going both ways, and lots of tears at my end, no idea what's happening with him as he is now not answering his phone. It was all kicked off by my obsession with dietting and stuff. Sorry, but if you ask me how my weigh in & class went, it will more than likely steer the conversation towards diets. I'm not a violent person, but sometimes, I want to punch him in the head. This discussion lead to me not having the pizza I wanted for tea, instead I snacked.

I hate going to bed on a fight but looks like I have no choice. I'm not crawling. I've text to say goodnight and stuff. *shrug* I can't figure out if I am upset, mad, or just fed up of the whole situation.

BUT MOVING ON. What am I gonna do about my lard-arze....

Tomorrow -
Breakfast - Poached eggs on toast
Lunch - refried bean quesadilla with cheese and sweetcorn
Tea - chicken something. I have heaps of chicken. No idea what to do with it yet. Nando-ify it maybe and have that with rice.
Pudding - mini sponge, strawberries and yogurt

Plus the gym
Plus the wii
Plus some heavy domestic duties like... laundry :|

Something has to budge. I'm optimistic.... I'll do it despite him and his moods. I did it before without any support. This little guy will be me next week

Bet he still expects his damn tea cooked for him on friday too.

e-retail therapy works wonders

Im off to bed. Nighty night x

 

[Mumma K]

Hope it is all calm with you and BB now and that you are now on talking terms
on your behalf I feel a bit miffed re lack of support from him re the diet
but also do know where he's coming from and MR H is also the same and gets quite upperty if I keep on about it so think they are damned if they do and damned if they don't
Hope today is a lovely day Jen and get those Babybels down ya hen :8855:

 

[Auburn]

Thanks Kal, I haven't heard from him. He's on a course today though, and probably wouldn't have dared text this morning, knowing I had a day off and a probable lay-in. I'm not doing any running though, he can piff off.. haha.

I've Wii'd for 30 minutes, had breakfast, and am about to head to the gym. After a good, long, hard think, I am going to speak to the doctor later. Well, the nurse. Same thing. See what they suggest about dietting.

I'm not going to make the smash-based pizza. I cant see that much fake potato being good for me, to be honest. I like the idea of all-you-can-eat pizza, but I'm going to make a proper dough. Making the most of not being on a plan at all I sat here and worked out, the amount of calories in the smash that I would use, compared to a basic pizza dough base, I'm better off with the dough.

By "proper dough"... I mean a packet mix. Im not that ambitious...

Hahah, I was just reading through other people's diaries, and saw Phil saying "Done my exercise Mumma K"... and I literally jumped out my seat and squeaked "DID MINE TOO!" ... haha. I'm glad I wasn't reading that at work... Anyway, it prompted me to update me tracker, so ta very muchly Phil !!

I fancied a strawberry tart, so I made a fakey one. A mini sponge flan, a couple of spoons of vanilla yogurt and a heap of strawberries. It was summer on a plate

HOLD THE PHONE! The scales at the gym have me at 17st 12.... My ancient home scales are 18st 6, SW was 18st 11.5.... wonder what the docs ones will say.... Im considering investing in some good ones to get at home, and binning the classes.

In other news, I got a text. "Hello. Are you having a fun day off."
I can picture the gritted teeth.....

Incidentally, my horoscope for today

"Jenny,
You'll sort out an interesting issue with a friend or loved one. The experience will make everyone feel much more happy and secure. Be sure that everyone understands the consequences. There will have to be adjustment and the changes may be stressful at first. "

Hmm.

 

[Mumma K]

Hmmm indeed

I've come to the conclusion that all scales are basically liars
and we store to much faith in them to give us the magical numbers each week
when in truth do we really need them
you put something on it's too tight ( oh booger me I've gained a few pounds )
you have to buy your next trousers a couple of sizes down as the ones you are wearing keep ending up round your ankles viola weight loss Simples

 

[Auburn]

haha, good logic there, I like it!
Incidentally, the nurse's scales had me at 18st4. Jeez. Which ever ones I go by, I still have a small baby cow to lose anyway!

I like days off.

 

[Auburn]

I could get used to this time off malarky.
I officially <3 my tea tonight.

Fillet steak with peppercorn sauce, carrots, peas and homemade chips. 10 points.

:drool:

 

[Kater-tater]

Did you make the peppercorn sauce? =]

 

[Elkay]

Hi Jen
Best just to stick to one set of scales I think - having said that, i can get off mine and get back on and find I have miraculously lost/gained a couple of pound! I often wonder how accurate the WW scales are at the classes, 'cause usually you are told not to move scales around but they obviously have to move theirs. I would go with the ones that you weigh the least on!!

Have a great Friday.

Did you make the peppercorn sauce? =]

If by this you mean did I open the packet, and whisk in the milk myself, then yes
I bought a colmans packet on a whim, I've never had peppercorn sauce, I didn't want to waste time and not like it!
But now I know how nice it is, I am going to make it myself in the future! Watch this space!!

Lesley!!!
I think you're right, one set will do! I've ordered some digital ones from Argos, I'll go collect them tomorrow and use them from now on..!

I decided to go and patch things up with the bloke. There's a sign on the main road out of his town, that says "Caution : Deer" and I commented on it not so long ago, maybe 5 weeks ago, that it was false advertising, I have never once seen a deer there.
A week later, he was away in Brazil, I was house-sitting, went to check his house over, and middle of the day BOOM there was a deer crossing the road...

Tonight, has excelled that. Halfway home, a deer is running alongside my car and then another dashed in front of me. Swerving saves me and both deer, but scared the crap out of me! So I pulled over, and went for a walk up n down.

Set off again maybe 10 minutes later, and 2 minutes from my house, another bloody deer runs across the road...

I swear, if I hadn't seen it, I wouldn't believe it myself.

In the past week, I have had near misses with deer, sheep, a cat, several pheasants, a pair of oyster catchers, a badger and a fox. And the TV ads say to watch for bikers...........!!

 

[Mumma K]

haha!!! obviously these wild life species have no road sense playing chicken with ya Jen

Have a nice day, and how did ye get on are you and BB friends again or is it still warfare as usual :8855:

 

[Auburn]

I think we're ok Actually, no. This gunman thing put things in perspective, yes we are fine. In the main, we don't fall out that much. I was careful though not to mention food, recipes, diets, gyms, or anything to do with losing weight. And what topics did he bring up? "Whats for tea on friday", "did I want to go out for tea at the weekend", "am I still making the lemon meringue for him", "did I go to the gym", and he told me all about his bike-ride. We're as bad as each other... !!!

Anyhow.. Today! Another day off! Skiver, I know I'm back on monday though, poo

Food today - This is what I like about days off. I have spent maybe 3 hrs straight cooking and prepping dinner and still have the meringue to finish off. The base is setting in the fridge til I get back from Argos to get my goodies..!

Breakfast -Portabella mushroom, bacon, cheese, poached egg and beans
Snack - Yogurt
Lunch - Pizza [8.5] - Homemade, with pepperoni. I worked out, when the packet says you get 2 pizza bases, you can actually get 4 if you make them thin&crispy. And I prefer thin&crispy. It works out 3 points per base then, compared to 8 points for a shop bought one... BARGAIN! and I couldn't tell the difference, taste-wise. So this, tomatoes, and 30g of cheese. Perfick pizza fix.! Will definitely be making that again.
Tea - Lamb Burgers and homemade chips
Pudding - Lemon Meringue Pie

I haven't properly pointed the pie and the burgers yet, as Im not sure how big they will turn out. The pie seems to say 2 points per serving, but a) Im not sure we'll really divide it into 8 slices cos we're piggies, and b) I used 8 digestives instead of 6, cos I like the base thicker...

Right! I had better get to Argos, to get my scales and my dancemat... hahaha He doesn't know he's got that to look forward to. Bet he won't go near it........... :8855:

 

[florabell]

your steak and chips looked delish, in fact today's menu is looking mighty fine too. I like the sound of the pizza, where did you buy the mix from? I would like to try that.

Hope you have a lovely weekend

 

[Kater-tater]

ARE you wwing again jen?

 

[Auburn]

I'm not really doing anything this weekend, but yes, from monday, I think I will be returning to WW. But focussing more on my exercise. I spoke to the nurse, and she wants me to go back to her in 2 months or they are going to take my pill off me, so I need to lose something quick. She suggested that I try Scottish Slimmers, but I don't like the look of that, I think WW is better suited to me. She said I should be concentrating on portion control. I found that SW again, I cant get the Extra Easy thing. And I struggled with the red/green thing cos I am so so used to having meat now. Plus, I cannot bloody stand quark haha and thats in everything!! She said to give it 8 weeks, then go back. if I haven't lost something then she'll be discussing alternatives with me. This means either something like Xenical [I DO NOT WANT THAT] or contraception alternatives.

I'm in the middle of making the lemon meringue... Gads. It tastes foul. I added twice as much sweetner to the lemonny bit as the recipe suggests, and it still tastes horrible... Hopefully, the meringue bit will be sweet enough to overpower it in the end... who knows..

Biker thinks I'm making the smash based lemon pie ala SW. Hah. Maybe I shoulda, it'd probably taste better than this monstrosity that has caused a bombsite in my kitchen!

The pizza mix was from asda, it comes in a box, and there are two sachets inside the box. It was by all the flour and bread mixes, took me a while to find it! I think there is one in Tesco too, which is in a packet rather than a box, but I haven't tried that one I had great fun kneading the dough

 

[Auburn]

Well here we go...

The meringue tastes ok, haven't tried the whole thing as erm a whole yet.

He'll be here soon, I'll give a verdict when I'm next online.... wish me luck :S

 

[OneDeterminedChick]

Hi Jen, LMP looks very very numptious!!!! haha!!
