The Princess Diaries ♥ 2014 will be the year I earn my crown (ok, Target badge)!

I think you should start to train Warren to cook SW friendly dishes for you when you go round his! Whip that boy into shape!! :giggle: xx

You have got to be kidding! :giggle: The boy lives on junk food lol. He plays football / does fitness training every weekday and most Sundays so he burns off whatever he eats anyway, lucky sod!! He's really supportive though, always tells me how proud he is lol :) To be fair, he did say this week (after my gain) that he's going to stop eating / drinking so much rubbish in front of me as he knows how much this means to me and he doesn't want to be the cause of all of the temptation. Awwwwww!! He's a good little egg my Woz xx
 
Quick update - not long back from Warrens. Had a quick bath and washed my hair and then started to feel a bit peckish. Didn't have any pittas in when I checked! But there was some salad in the fridge so I had that with 3 LM rosemary and red onion sausages and a Syns worth of LTL mayo. Really enjoyed it!

As I've had no meat today, I'm going to switch to a green day. I'm just about to use my HExA for a milky coffee and will have my second HExB for another HiFi bar. Not sure what flavour yet.

Will update my diary in the a.m. as it always messes up when I try and update from my app. Evening all x

I love IG too! Sometimes I think my portions are massive but when I see other peoples, they're not too bad.

What about making soup when you're not busy, then you have something to grab knbetween seeing Warren and doing other stuff? You've had a really good day today :) x
 
Good morning diary, Happy Friday. Even happier than a usual Friday today as it's my last day in the office as I'm off for a week next week, woop woop!! :party0049:

Going to have another Green day today, as it's another busy one! Going to be busy at work today making sure I get all of my jobs done before I go off for a week, and then once I get home me and Warren will be going to ASDA. It's becoming a bit of a Friday routine :giggle: But it's the only place I know I can get my Blossom Hill Vie wine, and he likes to get one of those "Create Your Own" pizza things. Although this week he said he wasn't going to bother as he didn't want to eat it in front of me, but I told him not to be silly, he can't stop having everything he likes just because of me lol. It's good for my willpower anyway - I will resist :D Not really sure what my tea will be. Will maybe just make myself some nice spicy potato wedges or something, either before we go to ASDA or when we get back (before we go to Warrens).

Really looking forward to tonight actually. Got ourselves into this little routine lol then we just tend to come home and watch the soaps with a couple of drinks. Proper cosy weekend. A lot different to my old partying weekends, who would have thought it. There was a time when I was literally out all weekend every weekend lol! :giggle:

This is how today is looking up to now, will update with any changes later...

It's a weird feeling but especially now its getting colder, the thought of going out in the cold and hair getting soaked is the last thing I wanna do!
Me and my boyfriend are planning on doing the same all weekend! Watch loads of films make fakeaways and refuse to leave the house! I can't believe how excited I am by the thought.
Have a lovely weekend :) X

Sounds perfect!! Thanks chick - you too :bighug: xx
 
Sounds like you've got a lovely evening planned.

I've not had falafel for such a long time, think I'll make some over the weekend, they are good for snacking.

I think I will have to make my own at some point! I love the salads from Tesco, they are yum. It's only recently I even tried falafel, but agree they would be perfect for snacks!

Have a lovely weekend Michelle x
 
Oooh, just been planning a bit more of the weeks food. I have decided that I'm going to have a McDonalds on Tuesday night after WI - and actually Syn it!! I have to admit I've fallen out of the habbit of sticking to plan on weigh night, and I've started "black holing" again.

Anyway, have decided that I will have a Chicken Legend with Cool Mayo (27.5 Syns), Medium Fries (11.5 Syns), 2 x Sweet Curry Dip (5 Syns) and a Diet Coke. If I stick to the plans I have made for the rest of the week that would take me to 84/105 Syns, leaving me plenty left over for a chocolate treat afterwards too. However, I am aware that I may struggle a bit with being off work, so if all else fails I'll revert back to my usual 350g Chicken Jalfrezi (8.5 Syns) with boiled rice and salad. Sounds like a plan, Stan! :D

we go to Symphony at the Tower which is an annual event near her & raises money for St. Catherines hospice, anyhow, I generally make falafel's for that, yum.

Thanks, just knitting & geocaching this weekend, & the usual Babs wine & chocs tomorrow.

i think when you're single you want to go out a lot more, and in the warmer months too! Now it's dark and cold, I can think of nothing worse lol I've been a with Chris for 6 years and gradually lost interest in going out drinking every weekend! Now we bought the house and everything I am a bit more tight with my money lol x
 
Evening folks, just popping by to post today's eats. Not that I've had a great deal, we have been worn out and slept most of the day. I didn't come home until about 5pm so haven't really had much time to eat lol! Was starving but made a huge, gorgeous tea and that's kept me filled right up! Please don't shout at me...

Morning diary, Happy Sunday. Usually I would be miserable at the thought of going back to work tomorrow, but I'm off for the week. Yippeee!!

Slept at home last night, usually stop at Warren's Fri & Sat. He's up to play football this morning though so my intention was to stop at home and have a nice lie in. I did have a lovely sleep but woke up at 7.30, so no lie in lol. Doh!!

Going to try the magic pancakes for breakfast this morning. I saw them ages ago but I've never made them because I don't really like the thought of cooking yogurt. I've seen loads of awesome pics on IG lately though, so I need to try them and see what the fuss is about! Made my oats up with a strawberry Muller last night so just need to add my eggs and maybe a little sweetener when I go downstairs. Took some frozen berries out of the freezer to defrost so I'll have those with my pancakes - there are strawberries, blackberries, blackcurrants, etc.

Then one of my faves for lunch - corned beef hotpot!! Mmm, a proper winter warmer and just what you need when it's this cold. I'm laid in bed now and my arms are absolutely freezing from having to stick them out of the quilt to type on the laptop :giggle: We're all having hotpot for dinner today, except I am having the SW version. My mam made one up in the slow cooker last night but using "normal" corned beef (rather than lean) and bisto gravy granules (God knows how many). So the Syns would be pretty high per serving I'd guess!! Good job I can have my individual little hotpot. I bought some of the Knorr stock pots to try instead of the bisto gravy I usually use. Those are free so I am saving 1 Syn from my normal recipe - every little helps!!

Not sure what the rest of today is going to entail. Probably not a lot. I think Warren is coming round after football / dinner, about 1.30pm. So will probably just chill until he goes to play more football tonight lol!!

Enjoy your Sunday everyone xx

Ooh your food today sounds lovely! Enjoy the pancakes, they're fab! X

Thanks hun. The pancakes were an epic fail!! I didn't have a cookie cutter to put them in in the pan so it all just went into one big blob and stuck to the pan. Absolutely rank. So I'm now waiting on a 'grill-up' instead!

Have a lovely Sunday xx
