[Jaffa Cake]

I hope you have had a nice Friday

 

[janetelizabeth]

Thanks Jaffa...my sister in law did arrive so we went to the carvery. They were disappointed with their meal but my plate of veggies was alright. Then we had choc fudge cake for dessert...rather a large portion; probably to compensate for the mains and no charge for the desserts.

Scales saying 10.6 1/2 again...

Food for today:

Options x 2 = (4)
small choc (7)
Pkt hula hoops (6)
roast lunch including small yorkshire, roasties, small portion stuffing, gravy (?)
plenty of steamed fresh veggies
Choc fudge cake (?)
ball of ice cream (?)

banana, apples, grapes
walnuts - hexb
Alpro yogurt - hexa

 

[janetelizabeth]

Oh that meal laid heavy last night when I went to bed...ate it about 3pm and only had a mug of Options when I got home about 7pm so you'd have thought by the time I went to bed at 11pm it would have been alright!!

Scales down 1/4lb - 10.6 1/4 so not all bad.

 

[ginlin]

Morning Janet,
Probably all that veg fighting with the chocolate cake!
Good that the scales are down!

 

[janetelizabeth]

Yeah...good vs bad!! lol

Off to spend my £5 voucher for Morrisons on fruit, veg and salad goods. I had an email from Morrisons on Thursday saying there was a voucher in the Sun newspaper...not that we buy any papers but was worth the 40p.

 

[Jaffa Cake]

Free desserts my favourite !

I hope you got some bargains in Morrisons. We are just back from Tesco where we did most of our Christmas present shopping for the younger kids as they had 25% off all clothes and we always get the kids pjs so it worked out really well.

 

[janetelizabeth]

Yes I saw that Tesco's had 25% off on clothes. I'm slowly amassing things towards presents now too.
I had no problem using the voucher....2 bx red grapes (save £1) bag clementines (buy 1 get 1 free) butternut squash, cauliflower, bag mixed peppers, bx flat mushrooms, pkt 4 avocados, bx cherry tomatoes.

It's been beautiful sunshine here today...might nippy in the wind of course but still nice for end November.

 

[Jaffa Cake]

It has been a lovely day here and it was quite mild when we walked to Tesco.
I have nearly bought all my presents and the last few easy ie vouchers

 

[janetelizabeth]

I'll admit giving vouchers or cash is so much easier than racking your brains etc. My family all have cash. My daughter's asked me what I'd like...having to give that some thought now.

Food for the day:
Options x 2 = 4
small choc - 7
2 L.Mc sausage rolls - 16
Mayo 1/2
homemade soup - 1

jacket potato
large mixed salad
fat free dressing
banana, apples, grapes, clementine

alpro yogurt hexa
minis hexb
walnuts hexb

Heavy on the syns...28 1/2

 

[janetelizabeth]

Just making a nice 3 bean chilli...I haven't made one for ages. Shall enjoy that for lunch tomorrow.

 

[Jaffa Cake]

I used to make a bulghar wheat and bean chilli in the slow cooker but not made it for a couple of years

 

[janetelizabeth]

This is all veggies and beans no thickeners.

 

[Jaffa Cake]

It sounds good

 

[janetelizabeth]

Didn't feel at all well when I woke this morning...had a bit of a fright at 8am with the phone ringing. We both flew out the bed to go downstairs thinking it might be about Joseph's sick brother in-law. Anyway the phone stopped and no number... So had some breakfast and then I went back to bed and stayed there until lunch time.
I think in hindsight it could have been the clementine I ate last night that made me feel ill....I'm not good with citrus fruits.

Food for the day:
Options x 3 = 6
choc - 7

banana, apple, grapes
small portion 3 bean chilli
cauliflower, peas

alpro yogurt - hexa
walnuts - hexb
minis - hexb

 

[Jaffa Cake]

You know I don't really eat fruit after 6pm it just doesn't seem to digest properly

I hope you're better today

 

[janetelizabeth]

Yes thanks felt better as the day went on yesterday and slept very well last night. I don't think it was fruit per se just the citrus fruit...if I'm truthful I would only have attempted one segment never a whole fruit...*stupid*

Thankfully scales down this morning...10.4 1/2

 

[Jaffa Cake]

That's good on both accounts the scales and you sleeping well. A good start to Monday

 

[janetelizabeth]

Yes a good start to the week...the scales said 10.7 1/4 yesterday...really me!!

 

[Jaffa Cake]

You really do lose weight literally overnight

 

[janetelizabeth]

I know, sometimes I worry about the extremes but it's all down to my terribly sluggish system.

Food today:
Options x 3 = 6
chocolate - 7

banana, apples, grapes
small portion 3 bean chilli
sprouts, carrots, peas

alpro yogurt hexa
walnuts hexb
minis hexb

I'm being careful with the chilli because I find beans quite dense for my system so not having 2 carbs at that meal...ie rice or jacket potato. Much as I'd like to.
