Newlywed talks proper English like what i does.....:rotfl:
But just for you:-
My journey would have been much speedier, only i had to wait a while as the poor lady placing the "reduced" stickers on the food -found herself under siege from the hoards of local German shoppers.. I being a polite British individual waited until they had stopped and then has a browse at what said lady had reduced-6 -8 -3 -1.5 -2.5 -3 -1.5-3.50 -

Pigpen – you don’t need chocolate!!!
It gives you a sugar rush and then your blood sugar plummets,
Purpleivy is right about the GI/GL stuff. If you NEED chocolate have a small piece of dark, good choc:drool: not something highly processed, try a cereal bar, a few nuts or the like instead. I do hope your friend arrives soon………………and get some bl**dy breakfast inside you :doh: :doh:
I must get a pedometer, I'll have to wait untilOH gets paid now but I'm busy at work again so must have doen about 5000 this morning!!
I had a ham sandwich.. ok? lol..
I din't usually have chocolate.. I had shortbread the other day and I have some thorntons dark chocolate coins left from christmas.. I dip into those occasionally.. I can't have nuts.. they upset my delicate bottom.. lol.. likewise seeds... see this is my main problem.. my digestive tract is so volatile!! Cereal bars are squirrel poo, I am get to find one that I like, they all have nuts in.. or aggregate, I don't have many teeth you know! lol.
MrsM.. I knew what you were on about as well.. it is just that frog has no idea !!

Morning all!
Yesterday was a mixed bag - I saved my low fat cuppasoup until 4pm, and therefore ignored the box of Krispy Kreme donuts we had in the office (a celebration) but did have a tiny glass of champagne.
OH made a gorgeous spag bol for dinner, but used coloured pasta rather than wholewheat - but still, was relatively controlled. For desert I had low fat M&S Raspberry mousse (spent a M&S voucher yesterday) - and then with a cup of tea whilst watching rambo I had 6 x animal biscuits (they're tiny - 0.2g fat and 10 cals each, so felt like a treat but wasn't really a naughty one!!)
Feel ok about that, as i'd normally have had the donut, a big glass of champagne, pigged out on pasta and ate all the biscuits, haha!!!
Today:
B: maltiflakes (!) w/ semi skimmed, water
S: cup of coffee (i like it milky - s/skimmed, 1/2 sugar)
L: leftover spag bol (not a lot of pasta), yeo valley fat free yoghurt, orangeprawn stirfry, noodles, some sort of gingery sauce I think. Have some lurking in the fridge!
Have a lovely day everyonexxx

I used to eat the nuitrigrain bars - no nuts in them
Also the Geobar choc chip bars are nice - mostly rice and slightly chewy - not tooth breaking and don't think there's any nuts in them eitherworking on clearing the clutterDo I want the stuff or the space?0 -

Uses quite a lot of Agave nectar... I like this. Although it's expensive, it's cheaper than all the chocolate carp I was eating before![SIZE=-1]"Knowledge is knowing that a tomato is a fruit. Wisdom is not putting it in a fruit salad"[/SIZE]

Today
Brekkie - One yoghurt
Lunch - Veg soup & roll
Dinner - Curried turkey (DP thinks it's chicken) with some added peas, onions, mushrooms etc with rice
Snacks - bananas if requiredOne day I might be more organised...........

Ah.. lil-me have faith it will happen:rolleyes:
Feel good today had to put a belt on my jeans and not just for show:D
B-HM smoothie
L- tuna salad grapes
D-chicken curry and basmarti
I have an apple and a pear and a sachet of options hot choc.
Pub tonight maybe two gin and slimlines:rolleyes: a girl needs something to live for and it makes me cleverer for the quiz:p
Yesterdays walkies 11158- it's a huge effort for me to get to this total as I'm deskbound 9-5 but exercise really helps me:A
I've always had porridge for brekkie, but once in another failed attempt when I tried Gillian McPoo 'you are what you eat' I made smoothies and felt fresher and alert, also fills me up I use half a mango a banana and half a passion fruit with some milk. Imagine it's quite a few calories but it suits me well
Have a good day y'all:j0
