Stubbseys Diary - back in the zone!

Hi loves,
went out for the day today, saw Looper which i loved but my friend didnt coz they found it confusing so i had to explain the twists. Had nice meal and a bit of shopping, got a nice top. So very enjoyable day, only drag was there was a lovely bombay sapphire martini cocktail on special and i couldnt have one would have put me over limit and probably knocked me out of keyosis into the bargain, so probably for the best!
hope u all had a good day!

B. oopsies, red leicester, half tomato, mayo
D. 8oz sirloin, prawn skewer, small salad, mushrooms, tomato, mayo
L. One oopsie, one black farmer sausage, butter
 
I have to say I'm quite glad I can't drink - removes all temptation. Dinner sounds yum - Frankie and Benny's?
 
Yes F&B had choice of chiquito, f&b, beefeater and nando, f&b more low carb friendly i never drink always driving.
 
morning lovelies,
housebound this morning as oh took my car, his had no petrol, so if i really had to go out i could take his and fill it up but he has a little saxo for running backwards and forwards to work and i have a bigger car so consequently i don't like driving his. you would think that a little car like a saxo would be built for women in mind, but its horrible if your 5ft 3 and a little wider than a twig to drive ugh cramped nasty little thing..... so resisting urge to go out!!!
having a easy morning listing stuff on ebay because its free to list this weekend. need to have a good clear out too as i can't move for stuff i no longer need or want, i am terrible i won't just throw it out, some i give to charity depending on what it is but i always think.... oo no i could sell that! frustrated entrepreneur in me i guess. i did have my own business for about three years like ann summers where i went to wholesalers and purchased the stuff, had one wholesaler with catalogues so that was brilliant. did that when the kids were small but quit and got a real job once they started school, but to be honest i earned better working for myself, i just no longer wanted to be out every evening (i was very popular, cheaper and better quality than ann summers and funnier) so guess there is still a part of me that hankers for the working for myself bit..

not planned anything food wise but just seen pork bellies and thought mmmmmm fancy those. will have a mooch in the freezer soon.
 
Eaten like a pig today tut tut need to rein it in a bit, got nice chicken n turkey roast tomorrow so will be good then!

B. eggs bacon sausages, mushroom n half tomato
D. Three home made burgers, celeriac chips 2 oopsies
 
just been to my sons gig and i forgot just how loud they were... not been in a while my ears are now ringing and hissing and nothing sounds right. they were on second so didnt stay late just watched them and then left. it was a good gig, took lots of pics and some videos. they are called After the Enclave and are pretty heavy P1020648.jpg
 
My son is the one in the middle in the tank vest top, he has just got a new guitarist so he can be free to jump about more on stage lol will try to put up a video if i can find it (one that doesnt burst the ear drums)

skipped breakfast today so i am now getting quite starving, got ages to wait for dinner but i am trying to fast til then see how i get on. it cant do me any harm the amount i have eaten lately. going to watch StarTrek insurrection so hope that takes my mind off the rumblings

got chicken and turkey today roast celeriac, cabbage and asparagus mmmmmmmmmmmmmmm cant wait
 
Did my first ever fast today, had no breakfast and went to Bluewater having laser treatment to get rid of unwanted neck hair, had a shop round and then came home for dinner. Was hungry but bearable had a good dinner but feeling a little peckish now must resist tho want to do this two days a week.

B. nothing
D. Turkey, chicken, celeriac, asparagus, cabbage
 
thank you Diem and it was hard but doable in the mood i was in, i hate hunger which is why i love the atkins diet usually don't have much willpower when the hunger sets in but i enjoyed yesterday (maybe coz of the novelty) BUT i got on the scales this morning and i have lost about 4lbs it will register as 2 because i was doing that up two down two annoying thing again and so 2lbs of my loss had stuck back on.

deffo going to try to do it twice a week now xx
 
Yes i am hoping so! Skipped breakfast this morning thought i would be starving after yesterday, but sons gf was cooking theirs and i didnt have any oopsies made for something quick, had no ham or cheese so went shopping first.

B. nothing
L. 2 eggs 2 bacon
D. Roast chicken breast quarter, cabbage, sf strawberry jelly 2 tbsp cream
S. 2 soft boiled medium eggs
 
Morning, morning, morning...

well busy day ahead, husband works late and have loads of cooking to do etc plus meeting friend at pub opposite for lunch, thinking of doing a fast day today they do low cal lunches over there so i can have one of those, probably won't fill me up though so playing it by ear, can always do it thursday if pub doesn't have anything suitable.

added a new recipe to the stubbseys kitchen sticky but for those that don't see it i shall add it to the bottom of this post it is sumptuous tho lol

hope you are all having a good day today

i have been contemplating it for a week or two, i honestly didn't think i would find it this easy. I imagined that the hunger would get the better of me, but its funny knowing that tomorrow morning i can be a little piggy if i need to be somehow makes it so much easier, i think if i was rumbling and knowing tomorrow would be the same and the day after etc etc i think i might think to hell with this.. but i strangely like the empty feeling, not being bloated its invigorating.

hoping though that i don't have any problems sleeping, sometimes i find it hard to get off when i am hungry, though sunday wasn't so bad, fingers x..

night night everyone sweet dreams!!

luv luv luvs
