8th Sept 2019 – family feast!

What a lovely day! My side of the family was here for dinner today, all bar my daughter’s other half, who was unfortunately working. My aunt is flying up to my cousin tomorrow, so she was also able to join us today. Somehow we all managed to fit round two tables 👏 Anyway, I started …

6th Sept 2019 – LEFT, RIGHT, LEFT! Great day!

I feel so energised!!!! Today has been a totally different kind of day. Had a job interview, don’t think I’ve got it, but that’s ok, it would have been an interesting job, but it’s not as though I don’t already have a job I enjoy. I’ll know next week. So, to business… Started the day …

5th Sept 2019 – another day I can cross off as done well

Let’s start with fluids – 1.5 litres today – WOOHOO! There were 2 teas, 1 with halfspoon sugar, and the other with two full fat sugars. A glass of milk – but idiot that I am I had it in one go, so had to apologise, profusely, to my poor work mates who were deafened …

30th Aug 2019 – fallen off the wagon!

Ok, so I had a good day, with my usual day time food, and am topping the day off with lamb Korma and glass of Bailey’s. I won’t post a picture. I know, I know! I’ve been doing fairly ok up till now. Now for the excuses. I am tired, I mean utterly dog tired, …

23rd Aug 2019 – what a day!

Having spent the night at the hospital with my daughter, I came home and went straight to bed. Slept fitfully for a few hours then got up. Spent the afternoon with my daughter and her partner, and then some time this evening. I have managed to be fairly good with food, a blue cheese and …

20th Aug 2019 – good day

Hello 👋 I feel pleased with today, I have eaten well and done my exercises. For food I had my nuts, eggs, grapes and those delish cherries, along with my salad – YUM! I feel I should have either left my salad until later in the afternoon, or kept back some of my fruit or …

29th July 2019 – hmmmm

MOTIVATIONAL QUOTE: Only I can change my life, no one can do it for me. Weight gain – 2.2lb This weekend was lovely for friend time, I had my friend’s lad over for a cooking lesson, he wanted to know how to make a pie from scratch, which he now knows. It seemed a good …

25th July 2019 – liver you say!?!?!

We decided in this clammy heat not to bother cooking liver tonight, it’s way too hot to be hanging over a cooker, so we had our fish and chips today instead. It might not be the healthiest of dinners, but it’s lightly dusted fish and oven cooked chips (with a bit of butter), so a …

24th July 2019

I confess! I wasn’t going to put an update on for yesterday as I had not been as good as I should have been with dinner, but then I got to thinking, this is my diary, warts and all, so yes, I have a duty to myself to record honestly (which is what I had …
