I rationalized that my new shoes shouldn't be punished just because I can't budget

    Have made raspberry muffins and a baileys cheesecake - could my new found baking habit be linked to my lack of weightloss, I wonder? :p

    Been really lazy this morning - just reading and mooching about. Off to watch the footie at my Mum's and will take the cheesecake

    Still need some dieting and exercise inspiration if anybody has any spare ;)

    This weekend seems to have drifted by without me doing/achieving very much :o. Couple of hours cleaning, tidying and washing now to salve my conscience a bit

    Then it's a new week!

    Managed to eat well today - but I'm hungry now :( Off to bed to not think about it! Had managed to add another pound by this morning so really want to get back on track this week!

    And a phone call last night :)

    Is it time for me to buy a hat ? :D

    My diet is now being dictated by finances. Made a huge bowl of tuna & sweetcorn pasta to take to work but then had a penguin snack after work & a bowl of the oatbran porridge for my supper :o.

    All that high protein eating has put me right off meat for a while, it will be interesting to see if my finance oriented diet makes any difference to my weight :D.

    Can't help with motivation other than maybe a mini goal to work towards for your birthday ?

    I can send you my copy of Davina - fed up with her taunting me.

    Thanks Lula - I already have my own Davina taunting me - I find shoving her behind the TV works best! :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    Don't worry, you'll get loads of warnig when you need a hat :p Although I did get a jokey pressie yesterday from his trip and several texts last night ;)

    Random, unplanned night out last night with a group of guys from work which was really good fun :D

    Couple of texts too!

    But not too good day at work today :( Feeling a bit stuck in a rut and directionless at the moment, but there is really nothing else out there in my field so I need to stick with my current job for the time being! Had a chat with a colleague who was really supportive so that was nice!

    Off to make a phonecall ;)
