[MummySarahE]

I had a look in H&B today, couldn't see the MS and the Popping Corn was very overpriced, the hunt continues! X how has your Friday been? X

It's £1.59 in tesco for 500g I looked today when I went to buy some milk for work. My Friday has been tiring. Glad to be home and hubby is making me dinner

Red pepper with Hummous (2pp)
The wrap was nice, I used 0pp worth of mayo in it

Dinner
Steak Pie (11pp) mash (5pp) gravy (1pp) mixed Veg
I added some things to the mash and it was a bit more like bubble and Squeek. Yum


Snacks
Tangerine, Apple, 8 Cherries, peanut butter Cornetto (6pp) Fat free Greek yogurt 2pp

=40pp
= 5 weeklies used

14weeklies left for tomorrow. I plan to try and only use 7

Me
It's now the weekend, I'm needing this. Baby is cute today, did the biggest kick ever. I tapped my belly this morning 3 times and said 'I Love You' out loud, she kicked back 3 times. So I'll take that as she loves me too
This weekend we have no plans which is bliss, as for the past 12 weeks I have not had a single day I can do nothing. We will get some shopping in the morning and then hopefully just chill out.

I guess 2pp isn't too bad. I love those Lincolnshire ones! So tasty as veggie sausages can sometimes be plain and boring! X

The quorn ones I hate, they are so tasteless. I was a veggie for 20 years, since I was 7/8/9. My mum doesn't remember exactly when. I started eating meat when I became pregnant. Which is a totally crazy craving to have isn't it. I only eat organic/free range meat. Grass fed beef etc. I'm a bit scared of all the chemicals they pump into animals to make them grow faster. Which is why I don't drink cows milk. I know I call my milk skimmed, it's actually either almond milk or coconut milk and has less calories as skimmed. Totally free on F&H. Even my pie today is from a farm shop place and totally safe. I've never been a strict veggie though. Like if someone made chicken pasta, I could pick the chicken out and eat the pasta. So I was probably a fake vegetarian to be honest.

I loveeeee almond or hazelnut milk, wasn't keen on coconut tho. I only like the Quorn Sausages when I've marinated them in Nandos Marinade all day, they taste lovely that way! X

Good Morning!
I have News....

I decided Sunday is a shoddy weigh in day. Me and the husband like to eat out on a Saturday evening sometimes, or I like a treat, plus when I'm out and about it is hard as I'm having an extra coffee or snack. So I thought Saturday would be a better WI day than Sunday. So I've been on ww in my iPad this morning and changed my WI to today...
I hadn't eaten, only had some water. Not sure why I'm up so early. Baby wakes me up for a wee.

Anyway YAYYYYYYY!!!!!!!!!! I STAYED THE SAMEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE YEAHHHHHHHH

I doubt many would be so happy by that lol. According to my app, baby is .3lbs bigger this week. During 3rd trimester a 1lb a week gain is normal. So I'm over the moon.

You think I'm a cheat for swapping days? Lol
It makes sense in my head but I feel like I'm cheating.

God No! The beauty of not attending meetings is that you can alter your WI day to suit you! That's why I WI on a Friday because I know if I'm going to need my new weeklies it's going to be at the weekend! X

 

[MummySarahE]

Friday would be a good day for me to WI to be honest as that's my new week of pregnancy. But I didn't weigh myself yesterday morning.

Well done on sts! Swapping days sounds a good plan, we have yo try and work things best for us xx

I might have another 6 day week and weigh on Friday. Good plan. I'll just make sure I leave 7 weeklies that I don't eat.

Thanks. To be honest I'm not bothered about gaining weight, I expect to. I am more concerned about my health. I knew I had a high chance of having gestational diabetes due to all the men in my family being diabetic, so I should have been healthy eating from the start. Good thing is, in just 6 days my blood sugars have dropped that much, I went for another blood test yesterday with midwife. Just waiting on results. I was borderline anyway, so I may just be back in normal range
