I am drooling just reading about the syrup sponge...favourite of OH!! Do you know Carly I'm not a huge pudding fan, much more of a savory fan. Usually wouldn't thank you for a pudding x

hello guys! I have to say, Im not a big fan of puddings either BUT i do like syrup sponge and custard. Im also a little bit partial to a profiterole or slice of cheesecake but i can take or leave those really. My weakness is savories like crisps, doritos and nuts 
When im 'dieting' though i tend to want to rebel and get a somewhat sweeter tooth. I have a box of lowfat profiteroles in the freezer as well. i think they are tesco ones too and they are very yummy for 4 PPs. I think the syrup sponge was tiny! still... enough to get a nice sweet syrup hit oooo there is one thing i LOVE that i forgot about.... carrot cake! I rarely have it as i cannot be trusted with those low cal slices. 6 in a box would just mean i eat 6 at once so theres no point buying them lol.
right... im off out for the day. its raining and we are going to Looe. My bro and sis-in-law love it there so we're going despite the weather! I dont see how i can really plan around this one as i know it will involve fish and chips. gah! i will do my best

right! i have updated my menu for today. I got a bit greedy this evening and had a 2nd pack of walkers baked (3), some pineapple (0) AND a tesco's light choice pot of profiteroles (4) its 2 profiteroles with lots of sauce and is delish! so all in all, i have eaten another 7 weeklies. thats 28 in total and tomorrow is weigh-day. usually i would behave more this close to weigh-in but i dont think i have done badly at all.
I have been thinking about how i have been doing on WW. Im almost 50 days into it and have only had 1 day off plan (sons 7th birthday). Other than that, i have had meals out, a holiday, other birthdays, bbq's and have kept on track really quite easily. I wish I had tried WW before now instead of SW as it is much easier than I could ever have guessed. i always thought counting everything i ate would be difficult and impossible for the longer term but it has been a breeze so far. Im really pleased I have finally found the plan I can work with. I dont care that it is slower for me than SW, i think it is more manageable for the long haul. so... I am happy with my lot and will keep on trucking

haha! i know... i need to calm down. he really is the loveliest hubby. he knows i am a complete nightmare and tries to accommodate my loony ways regardless. Im quite lucky that he puts up with me! the poor man does a lot of eye rolling hehe.
today my daughter has an opticians appointment and im getting her hair cut. this will all be happening at the shopping centre near my mums so we will be taking her with us. tonight i will be weighing-in, getting a couple of bits from the shop (i weigh-in in the cafe of a tesco's) and popping in to see my sister who has been away for a few days. I collected her from the train station with my niece lastnight but didnt chat much as i was tired and wanting to get home so will catch up with her news later. she was away seeing her fella who lives up the country a little so theres always gossip to be had when she has been to visit him
I dont feel all that enthalled with food today. not sure why? ya know... i think im getting a bit bored of not having much to do. the fact that i should be enjoying doing naff all and im simply not is a bit deflating Its probably just a mood im in as i have been fine aside from now. I always enjoy time off with the kids but the older 2 are being particularly stroppy/argumentative and generally hard to enjoy at the moment so thats a bit gutting. they keep moaning about things they want and are trying to chip away at me. my daughter is after a new scooter and a bmx. she just wont leave me alone. My son 'needs' some nike ID trainers (£70) because the other 3 or 4 pairs of trainers he owns are somehow not good enough (they are hardly worn and quite new). seriously, they just havent let up for days and days. every conversation they initiate involves their wish-list of crap and i am pretty much at my wits end with it. they are chipping away thinking i'll crumble. i dont know where they have gotten that crazy idea because i never crumble under the endless whinging. we have never spoiled them so i cannot understand their sense of entitlement and the totally spoilt attitudes! GAH! at least my little one still adores me and asks for nothing but hugs and a steady supply of sweets.
ok... rant over. I'll add todays food later. we slept in so brekky has been missed and i havent decided what else to have yet.

Sounds like the teenage blues !!!!!!!!! but I know what you mean . Children now expect everything to be handed to them but you are right not to give in to every whim . Its blackmail really . they make you feel like a bad mother. They dont understand or care that your hubbie and yourself work hard for your money. I would set them various chores to do for the next few weeks like mow the lawn, empty the dishwasher, help folding laundry , pair the socks (hate doing that) and then say you will concider their requests. 1: it might shut them up altogether or2: you might get them to realise they have to work for what they want. (I sound sooo like my mother !!!!)
I am lucky here in that my eldest (17) with autism is happy with a box of crayons or some paints and the 15 yr old in fairness to him is not too demanding either . If we tell him we dont have the money at the moment or its too expensive. he is usually ok with that.
