  • Well, I was happy, until I discovered I don't have many pennies until payday left. Good job I have been shopping today meaning Sat-Sun-Mon-Tues can be NSDs and I should just about have enough liquid gold fuel left.

    Decent day at work

    Happy about weight loss
    Keen to keep it all going so tomorrow am planning this

    Get up and watch rugby for most of the morning - nice!
    Take the dog on a great long walk
    Do Shred
    Tidy and clean up as much as possible

    Think that'll do for tomorrow - a nice and relaxing day overall

  • One match watched and another about to start. Think I'll potter about doing some housework while this one is on and stick some washing on ready to go outside and attempt to dry.

    Just spent a bit of time recipe hunting for food in the freezer to start using this up and found some good fish recipes to try out with all the reduced fish I've bought

    Tonight is rib eye steak, HM wedges and peas

    Will have a rifle about in the freezer to see what I have the most of and then use it up - might do a casserole or might do a potato topped pie.

    Have a loaf baking at the moment.

    When went to the supermarket yesterday had a look for a carton of soup which sounded tasty and relatively low calorie. don't normally buy soup but haven't made any yet while I concentrate on using up all the salad leaves in the garden first. Almost all gone, maybe a couple of weeks to go so better be pretty quick before they go further past their best.

    Not sure if any tomatoes will ripen, maybe with this indian summer next week if they are quick and its hot and sunny!

    Hello lady,

    great news on the running targets & weight loss, although I'm unsure about replacing running with cleaning :(. Good result for the England boys :)

    I need to know what TTSS is please ?

    Enjoy your week end
    xx
  • Morning to you too lady!

    Right then,

    Firstly - TTSS is Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy - absolutely brilliant!

    Secondly - day off running today and will run tomorrow. Today is long dog walk day of approx 2hrs, cleaning and then Shredding (hopefully) which will amount to more than a 6mile run I think!

    Better get a shuffle on to fit all of this in - back later!

  • All cleaning done bar the mopping of floors which I will leave until a better drying day

    Just back from an hour an a half walk with the dog through the fields looking at all the berries out there. Lovely walk, will go again soon. Reminds me of the countryside even though I'm in a town. What a lovely time of year, I love autumn, however, I love all the seasons and the differences between them.

    My walking shoes have nearly had it now - better have a look for a new pair again, mind you I have worn them to death this last year! Also had to chuck out a pair of worn socks reminding me I need some new winter pairs.

    When do I stop needing new things?

    Just had a lovely snack of HM bread and jam, yummy. Gone over the kcal allowance for today but hey who cares! It's going well and I'll catch back up this next week. Burnt off 533kcal with walking and cleaning which is in excess of the 200kcal goal. Plus will be running tomorrow too.

    Decided against Shredding today, really will do it again at some point, honest!

    What else, just relaxing here with a cuppa watching the quallys

    Oh yes, it is a NSD making it 9 now and halfway there.

  • Rather delicious tea of steak, HM wedges and peas and a glass of wine - yummy

    Downloaded the audiobooks from this weeks deals - 3 done and 4 still downloading - 7 books for free! How I love this site. The books ranged from £9 - £22 in price and were up to 14 cd's worth in length.

    Now lots of lounging around watching TV

  • Good morning.

    So far today I haven't spent a single penny and am trying very hard to not give into the TSV today of a Yankee candle set. Will get a NSD today!

    Have taken the dog on a new walk which was quite nice. Will go back another day and explore the other part. Best is 241kcal burnt off in an hour's walk - nice, have already blasted todays target with more to come today.

    Plan for today is to do some ironing, start some preserving stuff, make cottage pie later and go for a run. Also empty out a few pots later on and tidy up outside

    Update time

    All ironing done and put away tidily too

    Then onto a marathon chutney making session to make use of those apples. Still a large bag left to use. Plenty of ideas what can use them for.

    Next up is to prep the cottage pie then take the dog for a walk, finish off chutney then finally go out for a run!

    NSD 10 today - yeah!
