MinkyDinkys SW Success Diary!!

Hey! I've never made a Thai curry before so can only assume it tasted better for having the yogurt. I used half a pack of quark which has quite a tang to it so combined with the coconut sweetness it evened it out. Only used about half a tub? It's delicious and thoroughly recommend! Xx

thanks sweetness. And remember dreams can come true for everyone so you cam achieve it! Xx

After a night of being banished to the sofa (got a bit of a cold and was 'snoring' apparently) I have woken up feeling pretty sh*tty. We only have a smallish sofa and with being tall, I barely fit on it laying down! Needless to say, didn't sleep well, chesty cough has arrived and my bleeding tummy is aching. Assuming the latter is just all the fruit I had yesterday fermenting away though :D

Foodage for today

Breakfast
35g coco shreddies, part HexA milk, sliced banana (rest of HexA measure is in the fridge for later)

Lunch
BNS, red pepper and red onion soup, 2 x boiled eggs (random I know!) bunch o' grapes

Dinner
2 x LM sausages, mash/roasties, brussels and cabbage, gravy 2 syns.

Snacks! Have a yogurt and hifi light from yesterday at work because i didn't eat them so can if need be and I'll take a kiwi too.

Good looking plan even if I do say so myself! Now just to get through work.... Boo! Xx
 
Poor you Minky. Apparently I was snoring last night too, but I think OH is making it up!

Hope you feel better soon xx

Sounds like a horrible night :( early night for you tonight mrs!! Send him on the sofa tonight!!!! Lol. Our sofa in the back room is only a 2 seater and when we we're taking it in turns (mainly me though!) to sleep down here with the puppy, it was awful! Thank god it was only for a week or so!!

Hope your day gets better! Are you taking anything for your cold?
 
Bless him though, he slept on the sofa the night before. I think it's just a back lash from my Xmas sickness coming out and it goes to my sinuses (prone to infection as I had my tonsils out very young - well, this is what the docs tell me!). Already been asked if I want to go home! But I've got so much to do its crazy.

I would like to think I'll have an early night but doubtful. At least I have zero plans this weekend and can completely relax and get over it. Fingers crossed! Xx

I love to decorate! I always offer/help when friends and family need it, hard work but so much fun. Hope it goes smoothly :) xx

I'm feeling pretty cr@p to be honest, struggling to enjoy and eat my soup. Think I'm gonna bash through important work, have a meeting at 2 and then bugger off home. TGIF indeed! Xx
 
Been thoroughly told off at work and sent home :( 3 managers cornered me and asked why I was still at work after being told to go home at lunch time. Oops. I just have so much to do. At least I got most of it complete before being dragged out.

Have told The Boy that he needs to pick me up some flu tablets on his way home and that I'm now officially resting. Felt progressively worse as the day has gone on - glands back up, aching and feel exhausted.

Boo to the flu!
 
Minkx sorry you are not feeling way. Get plenty of rest and drink loads of hot drinks, preferably with honey. lots of hugs.
 
Cheers girlies, I'm currently blanketed up on the sofa with pillows and dressing gown on. As I said, asked The Boy to pick up flu tablets... What does he get??

LEMSIP!!

For one - I hate lemsip. Doesn't matter what the flavour, they are all gross.
Secondly - they are half a syn a bleeding sachet!

Grrrrr. That's why I asked for tablets doofus!

Breakfast was as mentioned earlier. Lunch was a small bowl of soup. 1 egg eaten mid am, 1 mid pm and a hifi light bar before lunch. Now I have no idea what to have for dinner as my throat hurts and I'm so tired. Think veggie sausages might be a bit harsh on me. Maybe scrambled egg, mushrooms and beans? Actually I've had 2 eggs today, don't want to have too many - nothing to do with the myth of 'you can't eat so many eggs', more to do with I don't want to get so bunged up how eggs do!

Decisions decisions.....
 
Why don't use whiz beans in the food processor, add some canned tomatoes. That wood be soup like and then fry off some sliced mushrooms in frylight and mix through. Should be easier to eat and no eggs involved.
 
Oh no, you poor thing :( We've had that in this house although (*touches wood*) I have managed to avoid it so far. But it's a nasty one so try and get some sleep and rest. Don't even think about getting up for at least another couple of days. Give OH a list or maybe you have a friend who can get you some stuff??? Thinking of you xxxx
 
Feeling the love :) at least I'm getting it from somewhere tonight! The Boy is glued to the computer....

Dinner was a green feast, which was concocted by moi.

Had 25g of Xmas pudding after - well, it was literally a mouthful but I'll count it as the full 4 syns. Now I can either eat another hifi light and have it as a full HexB if I change today to a green day. Or count the one earlier as syns. Difference between having 4.5 or 7.5 syns for the day. Tbh, I'm happy with either value as todays total. Lots of water now and chill with a movie.

Hope you all have a lovely evening xx

Haha that is a mad plate ov food there haha :)
Im hungry but dont hav a clue wat to eat so may just go to bed!
 
Sleep. I need sleep. Stupid sinuses are so blocked I could barely breathe last night! The Boy came in to the bedroom after I'd gone to bed, heard me snore and promptly just went and slept on the sofa.

WIN! :D

This morning has consisted of blowing half my brains out, coughing up lung parts and trying to decide what to eat - of course food is involved, I'm sick, not dead!

As nice as dinner was last night and as full as I was after, I have woken up really hungry. Although having a cup of tea has made me feel a bit sick.

Options for breakfast -
Minimal fuss:
Coco shreddies, banana and part HexA milk
Weetabix, banana and part HexA milk.
Toast and jam
Porridge followed by grapes.

Little bit of fuss
Melon, kiwi and grapes
Bacon and mushroom sandwich with fruit
Beans on toast

Mega fuss
Mushroom and onion omelette
Bacon, scrambled egg, beans, mushroom and toast

Or another lemsip and just have a banana and yogurt.

Someone save me!!
