Tuesday 28th August
Breakfast - Weetabix Bitesize - Total 5PP - 1oz Weetabix Bitesize (2PP), serving S/S Milk (2PP), 2 tspns Sugar (1PP)
Lunch - Turkey Nuggets and Steaks - Total 12PP - 2 Crispy Crumb Turkey Steaks (8PP), 2 Turkey Nuggets (3PP), all dipped into one tbspn L/F Mayo with Jerk seasoning (1PP), Cherry Toms (no idea how many - picked at them all afternoon) (0PP), Greengages (0PP)
Dinner - Noodles - Total 6PP - 3/4 pack of Lidl's Chicken Curry Instant Noodles (5PP), one Onion (0PP) fried in frylight, tbspn BBQ Sauce (1PP) (which may not seem to go with Chicken Curry flavour, but that's OK, as they tasted absolutely nothing like Chicken Curry!)
Plums (0PP)
Snacks - 2 Pink 'n' Whites (3PP), half a pack (50g) of Morrison's Cheese Savouries (7PP)
Drinks - NAS Squash, one cup Coffee and Cream (2PP), cup of Tea with splash of Milk
Totals for the day - 35PP, 29 dailies and 6 weeklies
Weeklies remaining 1 (to last 2 days - well I did say I wanted to be able to use most of my weeklies over the weekend!)
APs earned today - did go for a walk in the end as I thought it would be better than letting my legs stiffen up more, so we popped up to Cromer and had a gentle stroll along the pier, prom and clifftop, watched the sunset, and then came home. Walking one hour at least - 4PP
APs earned for the week so far - 33. A lot of walking, and still two days of the week to go. If I don't lose anything this week I'll be mightily miffed! According to MyFitnessPal, my calorie deficit should lose me around 1.5 - 1.75 lbs a week. Yeah right!
That should be it for the day, but now I'm hungry - not just fancying something, but hungry. Hmmm...

I'd love another piece of fruit, but daren't risk it - have to watch it with the IBS and have to have it really soon after a meal. Settled for another pink n white mallow biscuit thing, and a cup of tea. If that doesn't work will go for something else and use a few APs. Don't really want to though.

I hear you about IBS. I ate a few kiwis and was in an awful way Thursday and Friday last week. Buckled over with pain. So not worth it. I find eating the yoghurt with the fruit helps but I have to stick to my melon etc... or I end up very sick indeed!
The sugar free jelly is a great thing for late night hunger pangs! Although I know that's a lot of use when you probably have none ready/in the house

Yep, kiwis are the one fruit I have had to give up. I can eat most other fruit, as long as I'm really careful when I eat it, and what I combine it with! Sometimes I just squeeze the juice from my orange as digesting the whole thing is a problem (I admit I just count it as a free orange though!) It's a real pain, but I've just learned what suits me and what doesn't over the years. The only problem is occasionally out of the blue I'll have a really bad reaction to something that didn't affect me a couple of days earlier! A couple of years ago one fresh raspberry and two blackcurrants out of the garden set me off for 48 hours of pains and vomiting. I mean... three berries! :sigh:

I've got some in the cupboard - probably a good idea to have it made up in the fridge at all times for emergencies! I think to be honest the hunger is because I haven't really eaten as well this week as I usually do - less 'proper meals' because of going out and about.

Morning :0) the walk to see the sunset sounds lovely! Shame the chicken curry noodles didn't taste like chicken curry! Hope you felt better after eating.

I have the same problem with IBS altho' as has been said, having yogurt with it is better. I used to get terrible reactions from lots of things but thankfully it has subsided quite a bit now.
Fancy 3 berries setting you off!..
Well done on the menu.
Mine has improved over the years as well, although I'm not sure how much of that is down to me knowing more about what I can and can't eat. I'll have to try the yogurt idea. Yes... three berries! I suppose that I must have had something else that reacted with them, although at the time I couldn't think what it may have been. It made me very wary of blackcurrants for a while!

Morning Daisy.
Yes it was very nice. You do get some lovely sunsets over the North Norfolk coast. I still felt a bit hungry after the pink 'n' white and the cup of tea, but I decided to just go to bed, and if it kept me awake, then I would get up and have something else. It didn't keep me awake :zz:and I wasn't hungry when I woke up, so that was OK!

...which reminds me... amendment to yesterday's totals .... one more pink 'n' white, so no weeklies left now for today and tomorrow.

Hi Nessa, yes I'm good thanks - sitting in bed with Minis and hubby has just put the kettle on! :coffee:

Shame you still felt hungry but that's good that it didn't keep you awake and that you woke up feeling fine this morning :0)

Oh no! Couldn't manage without my kettle! Although we use an old fashioned whistling one now on the ring. Our sh*t hot, super fast boil, all singing and dancing one curled up its toes a few months ago, so we pulled our whistling camping one out to use as a temporary measure, and never got round to buying another one. It's almost as quick, and I really like the whistle! Clear worktop space too now where the old one used to go.
