Must try harder!

That sounds exhausting.

My cats love pinching a few dog biscuits, and the jelly if they have meat. The dogs stand and politely wait while this blatant theft happens!

My dog is the same, cats are clearly at the top of the food chain. I did spend a long time training around food when she was tiny, so she knew not to guard it, but I don’t think she would have, even if left to her own devices. She’s definitely getting old and a bit doddery now, but MrWW is firmly in the denial camp. He says she has years left in her, but the standard lab age range is 12-14 and she’ll be 14 in September, so I think she’s done enormously well. I want to keep her forever, but I understand she feels tired now 😢 If we need to spend hours outside at night now, it’s just the opposite end of the scale from when she was a baby and is fair enough.

One lucky dog to have such lovely understanding humans. I’m not surprised you’re tired.
I quite fancy one of the crimpets for making cheese pasties with wraps but I keep debating whether I need one or can I do the same job with a fork……do I really need another gadget to clutter my kitchen drawers. The jury is still out. You’ll have to let me know how you get on with it.

The crimpit arrived today @milann, I will report back when I’ve made something clever 😁

Good morning and happy Friday ☀️ I booked today off as I’d completely had enough this week, even though it only began on Tuesday! Then I was wide awake at 7am as nobody told my internal clock I could sleep in 😣 I think dog slept through the night (unless MrWW had a moonlit wander and I slept through it, he does tend to hear her before me when he’s here). She is snoring in her bed…as is MrWW 🤭 I’m just cruising the updates here, but will get up soon. 

I really need to spend some time making a meal plan with calories for the week…why do I find this so hard? I’m sure if I had something to follow it would keep me on track. We’d best not talk about the Indian takeaway and wine I consumed yesterday. What is wrong with me! I am always very tempted with anything I don’t have to cook. Indian isn’t a favourite of mine, but it’s MrWW’s and he collects it and pays for it and I don’t cook, so I’m all over it! I didn’t attempt to add it into nutracheck. 

I don’t know what is on the cards for today, but I aim to get some steps in, as yesterday’s 4k was abysmal, but standard for a very busy desk day.
i hope you all have an excellent Friday ⭐️🌷☀️

Enjoy your day off. 

I'm the same, I absolutely hate cooking so if someone offers me an alternative, I'm all over it regardless of the consequences!

Hope you enjoyed the Indian. I’m much worse if I plan in advance…..my inner rebel takes over and even though it’s me that’s said ‘I’ll eat…..’ the little devil sits on my shoulder and says ‘ don’t let anyone tell you what to eat’ I plan day by day and the thought of knowing what I’m eating days in advance drives me crazy and I do the opposite. Most of the folk at SW seem better planning in advance though so hopefully it’ll work well for you.
Enjoy your day off.

I also plan day by day, minute by minute, so it will be interesting to see if it works. Not yet though, as I don’t have anything good in until we’ve been shopping 😅 I may have had a packet of Doritos for lunch 🤭
We finally watched Damsel and I enjoyed it.

Mmm cheesy Doritos. Quite like the cool ones too.

I struggle with my whole gluten issue because I am being dictated to (by me) and it annoys me. I ignore me, and suffer the consequences. McDonald's grilled chicken sweet chilli wrap for lunch here as we promised the boys burgers if they walked with us today - I did remove most of the wrap though. 

WinterWarrior

Oh I miss macdonalds (and all fast food). Aren’t wraps quite low in gluten? I find I tolerate wraps much better than an excess of bread.
