lisa26_2

Hi dizzy, glad you're back with us and it wasn't anything more serious than a busy week. How is your graft healing? thanks for the recipe, I'll give it a go sometime. i'm turning into a chicken addict...actually, i think I alwasy have been!!

Todayis and EE day

Brekkie - banana, grapefruit, yogurt
Lunch - salad, cheese (HEA), coleslaw (2), pickle (1), dressing (0.5), bread (HEB), bit of scotch egg (4)
Tea - cottage pie, veggies, roasties, gravy (3)
snack - pink and white wafer (2.5)

Syns total = 12.5 that's a lot for me but not bad for a day at mum's

have walked 3 miles this afternoon too.

We've got M&FIL's 40th wedding anniversary party tomorrow with sandwiches and stuff. Will have a late lunch before I go and try to stick the the crudites (there's nothing else healthy!!!)

The Kfc recipe is Luverrrrly I found that the 'sauce' kept well in the fridge so I could just make half a batch one day.....then do some more later in the week.


The graft seems to be doing a LOT better this time around thanks hun.....tis still sore (which I expected lol) and I'm on AntiBs to be on the safe side......but fingers crossed its going to plan and its only 4 weeks now until the 'metalwork' will be stable enough in the skull bone to accept the processor - so I will be LIVE FOR SOUND WITH A BIT OF LUCK :j:j:j:j wooohoooo I'll be able to laugh at a trump again :rotfl::rotfl:

Have a lovely time at the 40th Do tomorrow, take a fly swat for them pesky food fairies x x

I've been trying very hard to be good, and doing pretty well, except for eating too much bread. Don't know whether it's just pure convenience as I never seem to have time during the day to make anything other than toast or cereal for breakfast and a sandwich for lunch. Tend to take pasta or rice salad for work, but that's only 3 days a week. Am also blaming it on being pregnant, as that was one of the few things I really wanted to eat all the time with my first pregnancy as well.

However, I have managed to stay the same since the start of the month, which considering I'm 5 months pregnant, technically means I've lost weight!! It's just being conterbalanced by increasing baby weight. Yes?!?

Have just been held down and force fed a chinese meal of veg chow mein [not too bad] couple spoons special fried rice [hmmm], 2 battered chicken balls [:eek:] s/s sauce [hmmmm] AND half a mixed thai platter including chicken satay with half a tub of peanut sauce [:eek::eek::eek::eek:].
I had been so good all day too, will have to have a skinny cow to help settle my tum now . Not looking forward to WI now .

Helllloooooo Blackers my lovely :wave:

How did your week of 'letting yourself be naughty with the food' go? did you actually manage it to maximum effect ??? ;) x x

I must have done something "right" Dizzy cos I increased by 1.5 lb (but I am calling it 1 lb as my winter clothes weighed at least half a pound more than what I usually wear). Trouble is, I'm kinda carrying on being bad to myself, I can't figure out why. I am eating more junk than I have eaten in my whole life, and skipping proper meals. Not sure why, but blaming SAD as the weather is so dull and depressing.

DIZZY - It's a sign you're back - potty humour (love it!) Nice to hear that you'll soon be able to hear a trump - very useful. x

Monkeynut, It's not widely loved but I manage OK with WW Brown Danish bread as a HEB. That means I can have 3 slices a day. Mostly I have a slice at breakfast with beans or egg and then that leaves 2 for a sandwich at lunchtime. I find it's best toasted (even for the sandwich) because it makes it chewy and far more substantial. Days (like today) when I have cereal for my HEB I'm really thrown by lack of bread.

I've had a much more SW friendly day today:

EE menu
B: Puffed Wheat & milk (HEA&B), NAS squash, tea
L: JP, beans, bacon, mushrooms
SW chicken curry with xtra veg, rice, SW chips
Snacks: to make up for lack of SF in meals-banana, strawberries, pear, pickled beetroot (probably not enough but I'll really hit it tomorrow)
Syns: wine

So here I am at stupid o'clock sitting listening to foxes barking and suffering with chronic indigestion . That'll teach me not to have Chinese then. Am in so much pain and have run out of gaviscon feels like when I had a stomach ulcer, hoping this is not a recurrence. Really want to sleep but the pain is keeping me awake_pale_

Foxes stopped barking, cockerel now crowing :mad: I just want to sleep as pain is easing slightly. Looks like my Sunday is gonna be pants
