Day 174

So 26 days until I reach the 200 days mark. Just under 4 weeks. And day 200 falls on 16th March, which is the Sunday of a Bank Hol. We'll be off drowning the shamrock and all that jazz.

Setting myself a mini target to have my 2.5 stone award for then, or pretty damn close to it anyway. We have no social engagements (read "p!ss ups") planned, so no real reason that I can't do it. Depending on how tomorrow goes. After the epic wine consumption at the weekend just gone. Ahem.

Ok, maybe I'll say 2 stone award??

Anyhoo, it's giving me something to muse over this morning. Tuesday Musings (c)

Wednesday 19th Feb

So here I am again, waiting for PF to show up and do her thing.

Not sure how I am going to do tonight... had a pretty heavy weekend, but back on track 100%, and Red days saved me last week. Two weeks in a row might be pushing it though

Not sure what's on the menu today- have my breakfast sorted, fruit and Ryvita. Lunch is a bit of a question mark... might have to send DH to the shop!

So here I am again, waiting for PF to show up and do her thing.

Be careful what you wish for...
I've had a miserable sickness bug and lost 7lbs since Monday. Hoping to put some back on before WI tonight. Its taken me 2 hours so far to eat 27g of oats mixed with a yog and a banana. Still haven't finished it!

Good Luck for tonight Niamh xxx

Friday 21st Red Day

Breakfast
2 Ryvita from Hex B
coffee 1 syn (more milk than normal!)

Lunch
scrambled egg
cheese from Hex A
2 Ryvita from Hex B
2 satsumas

2 litres of NAS squash by 3pm

Trying to stick to Red for the weekend, which will be a challenge, BUT I've made my dinners in advance. We're having syn free SW chicken curry tonight and Sunday, DH will have rice I'll have turnip wedges (somewhere, I can hear Kimberly sniggering). Tomorrow we're having tacos made with extra lean turkey mince. Hope it tastes ok, I reckon with shed-loads of taco seasoning we won't taste the turkey anyway. I'll add in a load of chopped peppers and onions, and syn the taco seasoning and shells.

I've lovely Greek style lemon yogurts from Aldi (similar to the Muller ones, but they're free), and as long as I stay away from crisps I'll be good to go. We've no crisps in the house, so hoping DH doesn't land home with some tonight. Or if he does, I ignore them.

I WILL be having my wine though. Just not pigging out with it.

AND tonight, we're going swimming! For first time in AGES. I've a really sore hip at the moment, so hope the water loosens it out.

Tired just writing all of that!


Edit:
Swimming didn't happen, was too cold to go!

Mid afternoon

1 satusma

Dinner

Hi Kay

I LOVE sweets, real kiddy pic n mix stuff. Not bothered by chocolate at all, but love having some jellies.

I buy a pack a day, either pencils or flying saucers, and save them as late as possible so I can have a treat. Flying Saucers are brill, 4 for a syn, so you can have a big bag for relatively little syns.
