Morning all, more washing in the machine which DH will hang out badly on the line after he's finished cooking breakfast! I'll be glad once I can start doing things again, I hate this sitting around doing nothing.
I've 2 sewing projects I want to get back to making - a pair of shorts which are half sewn and a skirt which is just cut out.
Well done @bubbs on your STS. hope something gets sorted for your shoulder sooner rather than later. It seems to have been a long time you've been in pain with it. Hopefully you'll get a date for the MRI soon and there is something that can be done to make you pain free.
The beef in black bean sauce sounds nice @Coxy11 - will have a look to see if it's one of the books I've got.
Today's plan:
B - fry up - P; S; F
L - scotch broth (from freezer) - Fibre; P; S;F
D - pork steak, potatoes & veg - P; S; F; 3Fibre - bread (1 slice); skinny bar
Calcium - milk

Glad you had a better night last night. I still haven't had a full night's sleep since the op. Hoping that once the dressings are off, hopefully Wednesday, I'll get a decent night's sleep.

Well done on staying well inside your target range @bubbs .👍🏼
It's 28° here (and getting hotter through the week) so another Sunday without a roast.☹️
Sorry to hear you and @joedenise aren't getting proper sleep. It's bad enough with the heat but you two have pain alongside to cope with. 🤗
I'm just plodding along, I don't think I'm gaining but I'm definitely not losing either. Interesting what you said about the discussion on little habits creeping in @Coxy11 . My DD gifted me some Lindt Sea Salt dark chocolate the other week. I've never had more than a square a day but it's habits like that not accounted for that don't help.
It's our wedding anniversary coming up on Thursday. The plan is to go out for the day somewhere and then out for a meal on Friday evening so from Monday to Wednesday I'm going to be 😇.
Same breakfast as yesterday as I had some raspberries that needed using up. Lunch was put together around some pasta LO from last night. Tonight is a one pot meal to minimise time spent in the kitchen.
Today's plan-
B- Porridge, banana, blueberries and raspberries (fibre, F,S), milk (calcium)
L- pasta salad with ham (P,S,F)
D- Chicken jambalaya (P,S,F)
Swips- weekend wine😁0 -
Denise, it's awful it really is when you can't sleep, can't remember the last time i had a good sleep and think it finally caught up with me yesterday!
Thanks Maman, i like sitting where i am sitting at target, although i said to the consultant not had a maintain for ages always a gain or a loss 😂
Well we popped out this morning, i needed to pick my prescriptions up, god knows whats happened this time she goes 6 packages in different drawers, i thought 6 🤔should have been 4 prescriptions, all i can say is good job i am not planning n topping myself, had double of everything, tramadol really addictive and they have given me 120, 80 naproxen , 2mths senna and 2 boxes Laxido , i'll be crapping through an eye of a needle if i take all them 🤣
Won't need to order anything next month that's for sure!
Bought a chicken, cut the legs off and chopped drumsticks off and froze them and just cooked the crown, will have chicken, salad and chips
