Delicious Dog Food!

Not too much happening today. I’m still in the zone though. Why? If only I could find out what makes one go for it I would be very rich. It was the same when I stopped smoking, donkey’s years ago. Once I made up my mind it was easy.
I think I’m getting into a rut food wise so need to jazz it up a bit in case I get bored. Also should drink more water.
Mmm! Just fed the dogs and it smelt delicious! Definitely need to jazz it up.

Porridge with stewed apple
Chicken sarnie
Snack-a-Jacks
Tin spaghetti on toast with cheese. Yum yum! (I’ll never get away with this sort of grub when Pete gets home.)
X 2 Light hot choc. = 18 points.

Out to Lunch.

Well I survived lunch with Betty! We went to John Lewis and I ordered some lovely mushroom pasta but the (nosey parker, ear wigging our conversation and hearing the word diet) waitress, piped up with ‘we do lovely tomato pasta which has no cream and therefore less calories’ Bloody cheek! I (reluctantly) had to have it then, which I suppose was a good thing.
I wore my new waspish waisted coat but sadly had to leave the waspish belt off…..looked like a sack of tatties tied in the middle. Never mind….soon I hope.
I did however wear my push up bra that my son- in –law hooted with laughter at when I wore it on Sunday…… (I recall the expression ‘nipples up your nose’ was used)… Stu, I’ve lengthened the straps!!

No breckie in anticipation of a slap up lunch.
Tomato pasta
Ciabatta bread

I Know! It's all Water.

I’ve lost 7lbs! I can’t believe it. Wow!
I know at the start one loses a lot of water so I can’t lose that much every week. I am hoping for about 2lbs a week. I had a headache all last night and most of today. I was a bit panicky as I thought my alcohol tolerance was dropping! Perhaps it has taken a week for me to get a hangover!
I’m off to town tomorrow with Mother in law who wants to buy me lunch………………..bit of a challenge there. Just to keep me inspired I think I might wear my new waspish waisted coat.
