Drama Drama Drama!

Went to see a show last night - wish I hadnt bothered! It wasnt very good and after spending all afternoon in bed with a migrane I really wasnt up to it! Anyway, had a realy good day yesterday points-wise and kept within my 22 points and included a walk with mollydog.

Am in a very bad mood today due to not being able to stay with bf tonight as he's gone off on a stag do. Am making myself feel better with plenty of gorgeous food. So here's today's menu:

Breakfast
Alpen (3)
Skimmed milk (0.5)

Lunch
Homemade Mini Pizza (5.5)

Dinner
Steak, Jacket Potato, Mushrooms and Tomato (7.5)

Snacks
Walkers French Fries (1.5)
Mango slices (0.5)

Total: 18.5/22

Slumdog Millionaire

Went to the Cinema last night with some free cinema tickets I got when I cancelled my lovefilm.com account. Was really looking forward to seeing Slumdog Millionaire after all the hype.

However, the film turned out to be really boring - so boring in fact that I fell asleep and my bf had to wake me up! I'm so glad the tickets were free as would have been so annoyed had I paid for that!

Also was a bit naughty and had a small coke (which was huge!) - I'm guessing about 4 points! So now am over my points for yesterday. However, will make it up by just having 20 points today and tommorrow. Also will add some exercise by going for a walk with Molly-dog.

I'm thinking about setting off soon, but it really looks like rain - it's quite rural where I live so I dont want to end up traipsing through loads of mud and the dog hates water! I might have to leave it til this afternoon.

Anyway here's today's menu:

Breakfast

Alpen with skimmed milk (2.5)

Orange juice - small (0.5)

Water melon (0.5)

Lunch

Chicken Stir Fry with egg noodles (4.5)

Dinner

Jacket potato with flora extra light (2.5)

Half fat cheese (2.5)

Low Fat Mayo (1)

Salad (0)

Snacks

Walkers French Fries (1.5)

Points used: 15.5/22

Will make up the rest of the points to 20 with a snack or some supper later.

Woohoo!

WI day today and I lost 3lbs!!
My first loss this year.
As a treat went down to the chippy for lunch.

Here's todays menu:

Breakfast
Ready Brek and Skimmed Milk (4.5)

Lunch
Chips & Curry sauce (9.5)
Slice of bread and butter (1.5)

Dinner
Weight Watchers Pizza Oval (3.5)
Salad (0)

Total: 19/22

Lent

I have finally made a decision and tommorrow morning I will be giving up Chocolate and Coffee for the next 40 days.

I know I can do the chocolate, but I will deffo struggle to give up Coffee. I am doing this as I've heard that caffene can slow down weight loss and also make your breasts smaller (?) not sur ehow true it is but it might make a difference to the diet. Fingers crossed. On the plus side I will be drinking less milk (which can be fattening) and also having less sweetner which is bad for me too.

Without coffee to drink I will deffo be drinking much more water as well!

I have to say I LOVE LOVE LOVE my lattes - so I'm deffo gonna be missing Starbucks and hopefully saving some money as a result!

So, wish me luck

One day to weigh in!

It's weigh in day tomorrow and I'm very hopeful - had a little sneek peek at the scales this morning and I dont want to jinx it, but it looks like a good loss!! - good encouragement to keep up all the hard work today and next week.

I'm very pleased with myself today as I took Molly (the dog) out for a walk this morning before breakfast. She really enjoyed it so I will probably take her out again tomorrow. This earnt me an extra 2.5 points for today as well.

I'm considering starting back at the gym - I havent been since the first week of January and so could do with a big push on that.

Also, it's PANCAKE DAY today - I haven't yet decided whether or not to have pancakes for dinner. I have looked into the points value and will decide tonight.

This means that it's ASH WEDNESDAY tomorrow and the start of LENT - which means I need to hurry up and make a decision as to what I want to give up this year - I think either Chocolate or Chips or Crisps or all foods beginning with a C! Lol.

Today's Menu:

Breakfast

Ready Brek and Skimmed Milk (4)

Coffee (1)

Lunch

Pork Stir Fry with Egg Noodles (4.5)

Asda low fat toffee yoghurt (1)

Dinner

Pancakes (1.5 each)

or

Jacket potato with half fat cheese and salad (6)

Whoops!

Oh dear,

Got a bit carried away this weekend - Chinese food on Saturday night and a pub lunch on Sunday! The food was gorgeous so I uess it's worth it (in a way). Still got 2 days before weigh in to get it together. Will be trying much much harder next week to stay on track - my next mini goal is to get my third silver seven by 11/03/09.

Also, not much food in the house today so am just doing the best I can with what we've got. Today's menu:

Breakfast
Ready Brek with Semi-Skimmed Milk (3.5)
Coffee with milk and sugar (1)

Lunch
Hot Pork Sandwich with Light Mayo (8)
Muller Smooth Yoghurt (1)
Cheese and Onion Walkers (2)

AFTER YORK

I was in York Weds - Thurs for a belated Valentine's with bf. (Picture is of me & bf at Clifford's Tower). Had an amazing two days of sightseeing and did absolutely loads and loads of walking, but ate loads and loads of gorgeous food (including a VERY VERY SEXY strawberry cheesecake - yum!) and have put on 0.5 lb - was kind of hoping all the walking would cancel out all the eating (whoops!)

So today and for the rest of the week am cutting down the points and trying to catch up - need to loose some weight this week as so far this year I have put on a total of 3.5lbs!

Menu for today:

BREAKFAST: 1 slice toast an 1/2 tin spaghetti in tomato sauce.

LUNCH: Chicken Fried Rice (recipe from WW website) and Muller smooth peach Yoghurt.

DINNER: Low fat home-made lasagne and jacket potato

Total points: 20

Should be able to claw back some of tose points I used - weigh in is not til Wednesday!

Am not a happy bunny today as I'm supposed to be going out for my friend's birthday tomorrow night - but due to circumstances out of my control I cant go!!!!! grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr. So looks like a night in with the bf instead (so it's not all bad ;0) lol)
