Sarah's Target & 10K Mission

Thanks gorgeous!

We've got quite an ambitious menu planned for Saturday because the friends who are coming round are amazing cooks and we know they will appreciate it:
Starters - asparagus with iberio ham and almonds / warm chickpea and chorizo salad / pea and broad bean crostini
Main - Dave's famous paella
Dessert - caramel topped Portuguese custard tarts
Afters - mini almond biscuits with coffee

Super excited although a bit of prep is needed, plus the house needs a spring clean tomorrow!

Not 100% sure of plans for Sunday and Monday. There's an air show on near us and they have two Lancasters (what my Grandpa flew in the war) flying over for the first time in years, so if it's a clear day on Sunday, we will go over and watch that.

On Monday I'm hoping to catch up with one of my dearest school friends who now lives in the States but is over visiting her mum. Her children aren't very well though so depends if they are better by then - hope they will be as I desperately want to catch up with her.

In between that, there will hopefully be lots of chilling with Dave. I'd quite like to have a clear out of my girl cave - it's getting a bit cluttered. Need to have a make-up clear out!

Thanks gorgeous ging! Are you home now? Your pics on FB/IG looked so amazing! Was it wonderful? xxx
Nope still here! Until next weds! Home/work/getting back on the sw wagon all seems a little unreal and out of my grasp right now!! But determined to get in the right head space come 1st sept (once I'm home and bday/housewarming celebrations are out of the way!)

I totally can't believe I forgot to say I LOVE the shoes!! And how flipping cute is Dave with the homemade box. All your fb pics were amaze! A truly epic birthday or what!! I Can't wait to see the outfit the first time you wear them out!! :) xxx

Argh...ended up having a proper naughty weekend! Why do we do this to ourselves? Scales are 10.11 this morning although I'm sure a lot of it is water retention from wine drinking and salty food.

Gonna fast tomorrow and Friday hopefully to do some damage control! Eek!! xxx

This is exactly what in doing!! I'm weighing in a day early though so I'm praying for a loss!!
 
Lol. Glad it's not just me! I weighed in early this week (4lb loss!) but looks like I've put 3lbs back on over the weekend! I'm so silly... :(

Fingers crossed for you at WI hun xx
 
Already feeling like I'm going to struggle today - have got a hideous deadline to meet so am hiding away in the corner of the office not talking to anyone!

B - Muller Greek (1/2), Alpen Light (1/2 HEXB), small cappuccino (HEXA)
L - Leftover paella (5 syns for oil!)
D - SW chicken curry with rice
Snacks - probably some chocolate with the rest of my syns!
 
We only live once girly :)

And hope you met your deadline xxxx
