I've still not sorted out the freezer! One shelf is full of raw meats, which is fine. The other is full of ice cream and lollies, which is fine, the other drawer is full of frozen potato products and frozen veg, which is fine. It's the other freezer! One has ready meals, which have been there for months, the other has pizza, pasties, chicken burgers and the like, and the other two have random stuff. I could do with getting rid of the pizza and pasties and stuff really. Oh well, I'll either cook them one night, or give them to my brother!
 
Oh lordy! I've just eaten the funky spag bol from the other night! I didn't realise I'd frozen it. Eeeek
 
Had a sneaky WI yesterday, and I was STS. Wish I hadn't, as now I'm paranoid I won't lose or STS tomorrow! Tough day at work today. It's the staff get together tonight (I can't go) so I'm covering pretty much everyones hours, as there are 7 of us in charge, 3 are at the do, 1 is on holiday, 1 lives in SA, and the other is off for some reason, so me and the SA lady are doing it all - mine is 7am-1pm, 4pm-midnight, and she is doing midnight-7am Tuesday, then I start again 8am Tuesday till 3pm! I know I shouldn't moan, work is work, but it can get me quite stressed sometimes!

In the little time I have off, I have to walk the dog, do the washing, sort out the bedroom (I left the window open, whole bead soaked, but should be dry by now), start tea, and there is shopping to do, but I will have to leave that for another day. I was wanting to take this afternoon off so I can sort out the soot room, but that will have to wait :(
 
Currently sat in bed working whilst OH is on the Xbox. He's on his headphones talking to friends, and I am desperately trying to put the paranoid me to rest! I know he is talking to his friends from school, but I can't help but be concerned. To be fair, I voiced my concerns very early on, and he was super understanding, and TBF, he only plays on it when I am working, and always in the same room as me. I think I'm just being silly, and needed to air it somewhere to realise I'm being silly, and here seems as good a place as any!

I mean, if anything funky was going on, he wouldn't be playing in the same room as me, talking about grenades and crap like that, would he? He rarely sees his friends (his choice, not my doing), and I guess it ain't much different to me sat at work talking to peeps on facebook, is it?

I think its the fact I heard him mention some stuff in the past, like when they used to go out drinking. And of course, I'm only hearing one side of it. But then again, earlier this evening, I was sat in the living room with a friend of mine talking about when we used to work together.

I'm just being paranoid, but I don't wanna be stung again or become a walkover again :(

He is so open about stuff, like if I asked now if I could listen in, he would let me. And he leaves his stuff all over the joint, nothing is hidden. Well, a little book was once, but I had a read of it (I am so nosy), and it was more of an embarrassing thing for him, as it was girls names he was talking to online. So I get why he hid it, but it just made me chuckle. Even pictures of his ex he hasn't hidden, just put them away. TBF it was a picture of him, her and their daughter, so not exactly throwing material. And I haven't thrown out every scrap of my ex either. Not for any particular reason, I just ain't.

I should stop being silly really. If I have a concern, I should tell him straight up.

RIGHT! I'm gonna try and be organised this week. I pretty much know what is going on most days.

Day 25: 14/6/11

Cheerios - 5
Milk - HE

2x WM bread - HE
Trimmed bacon

Half a bottle of wine - 16 *more like 14

Pasta bake
Large salad
3 slices Garlic bread :cry:


* the wine seems like such a waste of syns. We always buy a bottle, so I might buy a bottle, and a glass of diet coke. Then have 1 glass of wine, and have the coke, and my friend can have the rest of the wine. I'm sure she won't mind, she has joined SW last night, and is having wine on Tuesdays and not the rest of the week (she drinks every night), whereas I don't drink from one Tuesday to the next!

I'm wanting a green day (chow mein tea), but I realise it might turn into an EE day, hence the salad with lunch, just incase I need to up the veggies, and the strawberries

Chinese for tea me thinks. If so, I'm wanting chicken noodle soup, and chow mein. Or steamed rice and something like chicken in garlic and ginger. If its the kebab house, I'm gonna choose chicken kebab. Promise!

Fridays are my nemesis. Him indoors is already talking Burger King. Had a look online, and if I wanna stay on plan, its either chicken bites, cheese burger, or a kids meal. I would order salad, but I know that if I did, I would feel cheated, and more likely to eat cake. So for me personally, it is better to treat myself on a low syn basis.

If its not Burger King, then it might be the chippy he loves. I hope so, its dead easy! They do grilled chicken meat with chips, but I can skip the chips and order grilled chicken meat with salad - Mmmmmm.

We often end up skipping tea as we have lunch late. But I'll update closer to the time.
 
Day 28: 17/6/11

Well, Friday didn't go to plan, but I don't care, it was tasty, and the amount of hard work I put in Thursday, I figured what the hell!

2x KFC thighs, partially eaten! - 16
1x Crispy strip - 3.5
1x Fries - 10
Krispy Kreme glazed doughnut - 11

So, as usual, now on the low down. TBH, I would have done far more damage in Burger King, and I was tempted by the tower burger, but I swerved it. And the Krispy Kreme? Well, I wanted one. I know, I know, I am supposed to be dieting. :cry:

Really really want to lose tomorrow. Sneaky weigh ins are showing a range from STS to 2lb gain. My friend started SW last Monday, and had her first weigh in today with a 1.5lb loss. She's disappointed! She has a max 1 stone to lose, I think she did great!
 
Well, I hate my scales! They say I gained a pound, they say I stayed the same, and they said I lost a pound! The first reading was stayed the same, followed by a loss, followed by a gain. So I'm gonna report a stayed the same, as that was the most common reading. Wish I could report the loss, but I'll only regret it next week!
 
Day 32: 21/6/11

Skipped breakfast, as my dad is here, so I had to get out the house as he drives me bonkers. So I took the dog out for a walk and bought an exercise bike. It's 12:06 and he is still here....

He's here as mum went to get her hair done....at 9:15! I've said I bet shes gone round the shops. I wish she wouldn't do this. I know dads retired and probably drives her mad, but they are here nearly every single day, and I get no time to myself :( Tuesday is my lie-in chill-out day, but I was awoken at 9 by dad turning up to do some gardening. I know they mean well, but it means I can't get on with my normal routine, as everything will get scrutinised. He is already glaring at the TV as I have MTV on....

Salad leaves
Cherry tomatoes
Home made potato salad - 2 for mayo
Pasta salad - about 5?

Pineapple
Apple

Out for tea, but I can't view the menu online :( So I'm thinking......

Club sandwich (wm bread, grilled chicken, trimmed bacon, mayo) - HE + 3
Jacket potato and beans - HE
Some sort of chili and rice dish
Some sort of pasta dish
Some sort of rice dish!

I would pick something like gammon or steak, but it is so expensive, I can't justify it! I'm also going to try and stick to one glass of wine...
