🎅🏼🎄🥂
After deciding no presents, the boy bought his dad a car! I got a hug which I’m still waiting for 😤🤣.
Struggling with fatigue and no appetite (😱) had small amount of beef & veg but couldn’t eat it all. Another year of too much food bought!
Merry Christmas you lovely lot 🥰

Sorry to hear you're not well.  Try and rest a much as you can.  It's horrible being unwell especially at this time of year!

Your DH is a very lucky man!  We also said no presents but our grandson ordered us some nice cheeses, tapas meat selection, crackers and a bottle of wine.  Totally unexpected especially as he's never bought us a present before, our DD usually just puts his name on her presents to us!

Morning all.  At least it's dry at the moment if a bit windy.  I feel for those in areas where they've had flooding.  It must be awful for those affected.

So after a couple of indulgent days and way over syns it's back to basics again from today!  Going to try and keep the syns low for the rest of the week so try and do a bit of damage limitation.

Today's plan:

B - fry up - sausage, egg, beans, mushrooms - P; S; F; 2
L - cheese on toast; HM coleslaw - HEA2/HEB; S; 1
D - lamb & chickpea curry, rice - P; S; F; 1.5

HEA1 - milk
HEA2 - cheese
HEB - bread
Syns - low fat sausages 2; LTL mayo 1; lamb shoulder 1.5?

That's a shame TIE.  Just do the best you can.  It's hard at the best of times but feels even harder this year!  Good luck in getting your head back in gear soon!

Change of plan for lunch!  DH decided we should have the same as we had Christmas Eve so I had Ryvita, Spanish tapas meats; some cheese so HEB; HEA2; 2 syns for cold meats - 4 slices @ 0.5 per slice - so still low syn.

Afternoon all

I will be thinking RESULT!! if i have put 2 lb on but thinking ALOT more than that, but today i have had a ham salad wrap and we have roast pork and veg for tea

Hope you all had a good day yesterday?
The flooding here is awful, where i used to live they cannot even get back home, people are in hotels, cars , friends or family we are on yellow alert again today for rain 😥

I weighed myself this morning and have put on 2lb since I weighed on Thursday!  Don't normally put on that much over Christmas but it'll soon come off (hopefully) now that I'm more or less back on plan!

Have got a joint out of the freezer for tomorrow night but it isn't labelled!  There should have been a pork joint and a lamb joint in the bag but there is only one joint now so must have had one a while ago but not marked on my inventory so not sure what it is - still will find out tomorrow!  I think it's lamb again - good job we like lamb as that will be 3 days running!

Was supposed to have been a beef stew tonight but couldn't find that in the freezer either which is why we've ended up with the lamb and chickpeas which I'm planning on turning into a curry!

Hope everything is OK where you are bubbs.  The floods on TV this morning in Bedford looked awful but I don't know if it's worse elsewhere - sounds like it might be where you used to live.  Hopefully things don't get any worse although not hopeful with the forecast of Storm Bella on there way.

This is what it was like

Wow!  that's awful.  Is that where you are now or where you used to live?  Even if my village floods (it's only happened twice in the 20 years I've lived here) where we live we're OK as we're on top of a cliff - the 2nd highest area on our island!
