    Morning all.


    Hmm, my store cupboard essentials... baked beans, passata, pasta, rice, coffee, bread flour and cordial.


    I also like to have cheese, onions and mushrooms in too. If I were to ever be snowed in I could survive happily :)

    Morning guys.

    Me and DH have completed our bike ride this morning, 16 miles, it was supposed to be longer but was adapted due to bumping into some friends and changing our route a bit. DH is going for a run aswell this evening, I however am not as I am in the gym first thing in the morning and I will be just too fatigued to do anything.

    Will walk the dog to the woods after lunch and this evening I will have a lovely bath as a well deserved treat.

    Today's menu

    B/F 2 x weetabix, soya milk, crumpet with flora, squash

    Lunch - h/m bread roll, ham, yoghurt and fruit

    Tea - h/m chilli and potato wedges.

    Snacks, fruit, nuts and squash.

    Hungry or bored Andy-89?

    You Hydrated enough, gets some water on board. if hunger is the issue fill your boots on some Fruit& Veg, fish & chicken, omelettes are great and quick, mushrooms are an all time favourite of mine they go well with everything.

    Cutting the training but still eating like I was gained me 2 stone that taken me 6 months to shift something I don't want to do again anytime soon..for starter I can't afford a new wardrobe again :D

    Evening all,

    Ate rubbish again today but think I'm jst a bit tired from the puppy and was stressed due to lots to do for work by 8.30am.

    No dog walking today as they too are tired from entertaining the pup!

    Should reach 11000 steps by bedtime at this rate anyway.

    A pants day for eating - I raided my sweetie drawer at work, the one I use to bribe the kiddies. Grrrr! And this was AFTER i had eaten all my lunch. Double grrr!

    Conclusion? I am not eating enough for breakfast so will be adding in 100g cheese to that.

    Sports day on Friday. No lycra for me! But lots of time with the pupils, so always a great day. And I'm on the triple jump (my PB is 7m75!), on the far side of the track, so well away from everyone, including the naughty ones.

    Have done Jiggle Free day 2 - 1min 51! Tomorrow I'll add in 5-10 mins of tabata-timing hiit stuff. Fun !
