[Torn_Tranquility]

Thank you. It's odd to be excited, but I'm just glad I know what's happening and when now.

Just back from Birmingham! Absolutely off plan, celebrating my cousin's 40th last night. Party was so much fun and then went out afterwards. I did walk loads though, so that might counter balance.... (although I doubt it!) Back on plan tomorrow

 

[Trefoil]

Glad you had a lovely time- it sounds wonderful :
Have a lovely rest of the evening!

Here we are, back at Monday! I'm working today, 8.30-4.30, would be a lot better if my feet weren't still super sore from wearng heels.

B - carrot oatmeal with cinnamon pears (HEXB)

L - salad

D - giant cous cous, with roasted veg and prawns (I think!)

Syns to and HEXA will be slotted in somewhere

 

[Torn_Tranquility]

Syns spent on a croissant! Naughty but worth it

 

[Crafty Girl]

I love wearing heels but my feet always pay for it the next day!!

 

[Torn_Tranquility]

I totally hate heels! I am terrible for turning my ankles - which I didn't actually do on Saturday - but we walked miles and apparently there was lots of dancing. Hectic day at work today, I've done almost 20l steps already

 

[Trefoil]

Cous cous and prawns sound very yummy indeed. *sigh* sometimes I do wish I ate bread, I could murder a croissant

Have a lovely evening!

aw, sorry - didn't mean to create food envy! It was good, but not sure it was really worth an entire days syns.

The prawns and cous cous was delicious - added roast peppers, onions and aubergine as well

 

[Torn_Tranquility]

Weekend plus a day on my feet yesterday really caught up with me; had a lie in the this morning and I've been doing some admin bits for placement. Going to head up to uni in a bit and get some work done. I've had a chat with my dissertation supervisor, and I will be applying for extenuating circumstances for an extension, but I don't want to use that as an excuse not to do work now.

B - carrot oatmeal with cinnamon pears (HEXB)

L - will pick up something from the canteen on campus - probably a jacket potato with beans and salad.

D - tuna pasta (HEXA of cheese)

Will fit syns in during the day.

 

[Torn_Tranquility]

Had a Mugshot before heading up to uni, so may not bother with a jacket potato. Will see how I feel in a bit. Got a carrier bag FULL of fruit from the veg stall on campus, so that will keep me going, and only set me back a fiver! Syns -Freddo (5) and a Kinder bar (6) - leaves me a little to play with if I do want a packet of crisps later

 

[Torn_Tranquility]

oopps - got caught up working and forgot the canteen closes early! So no jacket potato, but that's ok. Had plenty of fruit to keep me going. Will grab a low syn packet of crisps, meaning a total for the day of either 14.5 or 15.

 

[Torn_Tranquility]

Had a great riding lesson last night; next week will be my last for a while I suppose. Have a dissertation research methods workshop today, then going to get some more work done at uni.

B - carrot oatmeal with cinnamon spiced plums and pear.

Not sure what we're having for the rest of the day yet!

 

[Torn_Tranquility]

Only two of us turned up for the session! But it is proving useful.

L- salad bar and a caramel Freddo (4.5)

 

[Torn_Tranquility]

Absolutely exhausted and kidney pain is getting to me today. I had a call from the hospital and I have to go in tomorrow at 9.15 for pre-op tests. I was cold and hungry when I got home, so made up some instant mash with my HEXA of LC light.

D - I just don't have the energy to cook, so we're going to roast some veg and picked up a Count on Us spinach and ricotta cannelloni from M&S (6.5 syns)

Total syns for the day: 11

TBH - I just wanted to order takeaway, but OH convinced me otherwise.

Sorry to hear you aren't feeling so good glad you got your call though, hopefully things are feeling a bit real for you!

Glad your OH talked you out of your takeaway too- you'll thank him tomorrow take care and I hope you have a better evening!

[Torn_Tranquility]

Thanks Ruth - really enjoyed the cannelloni, and will be buying again. There's no way I could have made something as good (and cheesy) for those syns! It is starting to feel a bit real now, and feeling a bit overwhelmed. It's also weird knowing that tomorrow is probably to be my last WI for a while. I've asked my consultant to book me off for three weeks - with recovery time and moving house, it looks sensible.

 

[Torn_Tranquility]

Up early this morning, ready to go to hospital for pre-op. Feeling very tired again, just don't seem to be sleeping well at all.

B - fresh fruit.

D - pasta bake (HEXA of cheese)

I'll grab something for lunch, I think I might work from home today, just getting some survey design work done for my placement. I haven't heard whether they want me to go in or anything. Then WI this evening
