Step into a lighter summer '23 with Slimming World.

That sounds really horrible @bubbs. It reminds me of when he had the delirium a while back. I wonder if he was fighting off infection? Glad he's brighter today though. 🤗

Big hugs to others coping with illness and care responsibility too. Fortunately, your dad seems to be recovering quite well @Jellybaby, that's a good sign. Hope your DH gets a diagnosis soon @annabanana82. He's a young man to be unwell. 

It's been an awful day here, rain has got progressively worse and still tipping down. ☹️ I hope @Coxy11 and her dad didn't get too wet. 🤔

I'm sure I feel even fatter than I did last week, despite a week back on plan. It's probably the previous week catching up as you don't put weight on overnight. It often feels like it though! 🤣

I met a friend this morning. We only had coffee though, despite everyone around us tucking into cakes. 😇

Well done on getting back to some exercise @ruby_eskimo and the PB! 👍

Would it be cheaper if you parked at your DD's house and then got a train to London @joedenise. Lots of people locally drive to Richmond or similar and then take the train as even parking at the station is cheaper than the train fare.

I've done my meal plan and shop. Hair like rats' tails after getting wet just walking from the car. ☹️

Today's EE plan - 
B- HEB porridge, HEA 1 milk, berries (S), banana (F) 
L- LO chicken casserole (P, F, S), pickled cabbage (S) 
D- baked salmon (P), SW chips (F), broccoli, tomatoes, garlic mushrooms (S, HEA2) 
Syns - weekend wine 😁

Unfortunately my DD2 lives on a busy main road where the parking is resident only or can only park at certain times as it's fairly close to the station so it was introduced to stop people parking there all day.  Not allowed to park between 11am and 12.30pm which means we could only go for an afternoon so not really long enough to do much!

We seem to be having similar evening meals again @maman - both having fish after spag bol last night!

It was horrendous and was even worse hearing Mum sobbing and pleading with him to have a drink 😪😪

No he has not got delirium  or an infection , we think he is giving up as he has had enough, the only way to deal with it is drips in hospital, he is adamant he is not going back to hospital and we cannot force him and said we would  not go against his wishes.

Hopefully he continues like he is today.

He is not confused either as he bopped me on the nose yesterday by mistake, i was leaning on the bed guard talking to him and he wafted his arms like he does when shouting and caught my nose and said straight away, sorry i didn't mean that 🥰

maman

Sending you the biggest of hugs @bubbs. 🤗

Yes, very similar meals @joedenise. Our salmon was a bit of a last minute decision as I hadn't got anything out of the freezer so bought it fresh. I know I was away for 3 weeks but food prices are crazy. Increases way, way above average inflation. 🤔☹️

Thanks Maman , hopefully i will sleep better tonight.

I have made 3 pork pies for group tomorrow as we have party/taster as consultant's last day 😫

Today i had soft pitta stuffed with ham and beetroot, 2 boiled eggs, tomato and fresh apricots.

Here we go 😋

Well done for making the pork pies @bubbs. You'd have been forgiven for giving it a miss with everything else going on. 

Our salmon was lush. It was the hot, smoked salmon fillets from Aldi. They're ready cooked but I warmed them through briefly as was having a hot meal. They'd be ideal to flake into a salad or pasta. 😋
