  • Thanks Verbatim. Ended up with emergency docs appointment and more, stronger antibiotics. Hopefully feel human again tomorrow. Still managed to go to work so I am flaming exhausted.

    Anyhow to spends today. Spent £4.30 in slimming club on bars and raffle tickets. Spent £6.15 in chippy on way home :o. Dinner for DS and I as I felt too yuk to cook (excuses I know). I stayed the same this week which was very disappointing as I only had 1 day where I was off plan but I was way way off plan so I need to stick to it like glue this week. I also think I am retaining fluid due to kidney issues. We'll see what happens next week. £2 in a collection at work today for another retiral.

    I have just ordered a breakfast pack, 5kg of chicken and a fruit and veg box for tomorrow which will cost about £57 but I am getting down to the last of the food and kids are moaning LOUDLY that 'there's no food in this house ' and I can't even really argue with them.

    Am off to bed now folks and hopefully tomorrow will be a less painful day xx

    Ahh MiT, sorry to hear you're poorly and really hope the anti-b's kick in quickly and help. Wish I could have caught up on your diary sooner to send get well vibes.

    Yes, rest and more rest...and food for the kids :rotfl:

    No weight gain is still really good :T . Focus on your health for now. I've a glut of strawberries from being given lots of home grown ones - reckon I must be hitting about 8 a day in the fruit and veg portion stakes, but zillions of calories with them covered in cream :rotfl:

  • MIT bounces into the room beaming with smiles and chanting I feel better :j

    Still not 100% but at least pain subsiding and feeling more 'with it' today. I can't even remember being in work yesterday :eek::eek: Apparently I was fruit loops. Called a customer and then asked him if I had already called him earlier as I couldn't remember. Staff told me today they were all laughing their heads off at me. Just kinda shows I should not have been at work and in my bed. I am mega tired tonight though and heading to bed very soon but just so glad to be feeling better than yesterday :D

    Forgot to report a spend of £2.35 yesterday on lunch.

    Today's spends are £52 on chicken, sausage,bacon,eggs,fruit and veg which was delivered earlier. Also spent £3.50 in local shop on milk, diet coke and mushrooms as I as making diet coke chicken for dinner. It was yum.

    I'll update my grocery spends later.

    No ord from internet guy since last Thursday. No reason given but not that bothered. I;ve given up on him. I might try again in a week or two.

    My house is a riot as not done much the last few days. I'll catch up though and if I don't then next Friday I stop for another 2 weeks so it's all good. I really hope the weather is nice when we are off. DD will be working but aat least she will come to a nice cooked meal every night.

    Told kids we will be sitting down together to do a menu for next 2 weeks so that they don't moan. I ill then hunt for coupons and see what supermarket is cheapest for everything as I need tins and lunch stuff for DS as he will not be in school. He has said to me just to make a huge pot of soup which will do him all of next week.

    Am off to try and catch up a wee but and total my grocery shopping as I am interested to see where I stand :cool:

  • Yes he was watching footie but doubt it's that. He's probably been on my facebook page and seen all my mad pics which show me all sizes and all states , from glam to dogs dinner lol he will have been scared off with that lot.

    Ali I have let you down with grocery spends but in fairness a fair bit of those spends has been on socialising :o

    You haven't let anyone down...you're monitoring it and can hone it by upping budget a bit and seeing if there's any shaving off for next month. It'll meet in the middle and you'll know you're there :)

    :rotfl: You do yourself a disservice saying that about your FB page - you have a fab and fun social life and are happy. If a chap doesn't like that, they can go stuff themselves :D
