Hello my dear! Well done on the loss!!!
My grandad is much better as is my OH too thank you for asking!
Well if your OH was away then of course you would have a couple of nice meals when you got back, I hope you enjoyed it and lived!! I totally agree with you regarding the limits
I hope that you have a wonderful week!! Can't wait to shift this weight and get back to where I should be! Hope your studies have started well!!

Dinner sounds good to me Ruth! I like the odd meat free day- good for the pocket too, though OH has been paid today so it is tempting to go and blow a load on yummy food at the supermarket lol.
Sure you'll get that teeny gain off in no time- I too think it could be a bit of fluid- chips (non-sw ones) often do that to me. Hope you're having a good week so far! Mins feels a bit quiet these last couple of days, I guess everyone is trying to get back into routine after the summer hols X

Dinner
Orzo with chopped tomatoes (a lot!!!!), spinach, beef pieces (marinated in garlic and herbs) 3 eggs whisked. Then all of it was layered together with cheese on top.
Oooo it was scrummy
5.5 Freddo and 2.5 for the Drumstick (yum)
I also had a lindor ball at work (4)

It was very lovely indeed thanks! We desperately need to go shopping hahaha!
I bet it is, can't wait until Saturday when I go shopping! I too am hoping that it's simply a fluid gain, we will see on Monday!
My week has been really odd I have been so tired after the weekend and don't know if I'm coming or going it really is very horrid. On a half day Friday and not back until Wednesday tho so very grateful.
Are you back to studying now?

I have a spare 5 min this morning. I don't feel like I have had any spare time whatsoever this week.
So:
-Eating is going fine and I will get that 1lb plus more on Monday.
-I emailed SW just now asking for the Syn value of that blackcurrant low alcohol stuff I was drinking because it's lovely and we are out with friends on Saturday and I would like to take some.
-I have taken some holiday from 1pm on Friday until Wednesday to just chill out before I start my new area in my job. Looking forward to pottering about!
-I had my objective review/end of probation (they did them both together) yesterday and they are thrilled with me, my manager said he couldn't wait for me to get my hands on London and the south east and progress my career further and he was very happy indeed.
-I have bought myself a laptop (eek) so I can stay organised. I haven't had a new one before so it's all lovely and shiny! It arrived yesterday but I won't set it up properly until I have some time on Friday!
-We have been asked by our local council if we want to go on the shared ownership list for housing... We are saving and have done pretty well but we are also on the council housing list because of my OHs health concerns. We said yes, filled in some forms and we have been accepted which is exciting!! They are currently building housing (brand new) at three sites in Harrogate and one in Knaresborough both with Bungalows and Flats. Watch this space!!!!
I apologise if I've neglected you all a bit.
I need a lie down (and preferably a spa day...)

Love the update Ruth! It sounds like everything is coming together so well for you!
The house in particular sounds very exciting- it sounds ideal. And brand new too!
Your review sounds like it went really well- hopefully gave you some reassurance that work are happy with you.
Wow I didn't know Lindor balls were so high, I can see why though, they are very indulgent (but so good- my dad loves them so I often don't get a look in!)
Would be interested to hear what the wine comes back at syn-wise too.
Yes still studying, I'm having good days and bad days with both food & work, sometimes it goes really well and I'm on plan, others not so much but I'm getting there... X

Afternoon Ruth!
Sounds like lots going on, all very exciting about the house! Fingers crossed.
I am going laptop shopping this weekend, badly need one as I don't think my ipad will suffice a MSc lol. What one did you go for? I am so confused by them all!
I also like the M&S blackcurrent fizz, someone bought me a bottle at christmas and it was lovely. I hate when alcohol tastes like alcohol? haha (I don't drink very often for this reason).
Sooo hungry waiting my luck break at work and looking at your pics has made my belly rumble
Have a good day and enjoy your time off. You defo sound like you need a break!

Right, I was also a bit AWOL yesterday as I went out for my Team Leaders leaving do at work! I had a steak and salad to eat which was lovely so no worries there but I did have three large glasses of white wine and one medium (had them bought for me!) I had lunch at Wetherspoons before I went out as I was on a half day and had my chicken and pepper skewers plus a Diet Coke- my body definitely cannot do diet mixers anymore
I had a horrendous stomach ache until I went out (I had planned to drink G& Slimline T all night) but I just couldn't, so I can't really drink anything else but the wine (which I don't drink often!) it was lovely though. Bit of a write off really as 33 Syns for alcohol at least! I wore one of my dresses and felt very wonderful. I'm going to have to think about these diet drinks. I'm currently drinking apple and blackcurrant no added sugar squash. I did drink an awful lot of them come to think about it!
- I had an email back from SW @Poppet12
I will definitely take that!!!
@MilliesMummyx I got a HP 15.6" laptop. I can't wait to play with it today haha (I had a choice of red or purple and I chose purple too!!)
It's this one!! So lovely
Need to pull it back together this weekend. It's not often that I have a social life haha! I will be just fine. Just need to chill out and keep focused.
Hope that you're all ok!

Go have fun! Life will always throw unexpected occasions at us whether on route to target or at target. I've had a pretty bad week food wise, hormone issues and no self control. The week before and during my totm I'm like a pregnant lady with cravings haha! I went to pc world last night and actually preferred an all in one desktop but I decided to leave and do some research first. I have a bad habit of picking really bad computers/laptops and they never last. So gonna check some reviews later. Have a good weekend! Xx
