Sunday 13th April
We fancied going out for a nice dinner today. We did well
last night not to have treat night due to there being many festivities coming
up in the holiday ahead but we fancied some nice grub. I wrote on my facebook
update ‘Anyone know of anywhere we can eat tonight thats healthy?’ I was hoping
for somewhere that did nice steak or chicken and roasted veggies. Someone said
‘just go for some pasta most places have it’ Pasta is probably one of the worse
thing I could eat its mostly in creamy sauces and covered in cheese?!! So I kindly reply ‘I was thinking of
somewhere with a nice fish dish or steak’ The next reply was ‘ Stay at home and
make yourself a nice salad’ For fucks sake!! Just because I’m trying to watch
what I eat I don’t want to stay at home and eat fucking salad!! I would like a
social life as well as being healthy!! SOD OFF!!
I’ve been doing good taking Kats advice on the alcohol front
and have been avoiding the lovely sugary ciders that are perfect for drinking
in beer gardens at this time of year. I went to the Greyhound which do good ale
so the Mr was happy, they also do a peach beer which I opted for. A couple of
them and a nice brie and beetroot starter (straight down the new white dress!!)
and a nice pork and vegetable main. Not too naughty, not a salad. Good night.
Home for a bit of game of thrones and reasonably early night in preparation for
holiday time!!!
Monday 14th April
Well were all off on a jolly holiday!! Very exciting after
running around all morning finishing packing, getting washing done to dry
whilst were away, beds stripped, dog had his herbal tablets! Car packed full of
the 10p bread and cobs for BBQ I’d bought cheap on the way home. Picked mum and
step dad up put the dog in his special dog tent and off we were on our way!
Had a fabulous holiday with the family. We ate, drank and
had a fabulous time!! Didn’t go crazy and eat loads of crap but was naughty on
occasions especially with the drinking!
Saturday 19th April
Mr D is back at work wanted to start as I mean to go on and
went to Dance Fit. I really do enjoy the music in this class. Its cheesey and
happy. One of the regular songs is ‘Reach’ by S Club 7. You don’t get much
cheesier than that. I don’t know if I love it because it reminds me of growing
up or all the dance and drama schools I went to or even when I did performing
Arts at college. I loved dancing but was never any good at it. Always a bit
clumsy, no grace or elegance at all. It also reminds me of wanting to be a red
coat. From a child all the way to being
18 all I wanted was to be on stage at a holiday camp. Dancing, singing,
presenting and just acting a twat most of the time. Being a kid forever doing
the birdie song every night. I nearly did it too. The only reason i went to
college was 16 was too young to be a holiday rep. I would have loved to have
done it and got offered a few jobs but met a boy and got a job instead. I
reckon I would of been damn good at it lol!!
Sunday 20th April
Woke up at 9am which is late for me, I was tempted to get up
and nip to the carboot but it was nice being at home in my own bed and just
enjoyed snuggling with the Mr. He even made me breakfast in bed. No easter eggs
in our house. Not even a boiled egg and soldiers. Rye bread with healthy peanut
butter. It wasn’t good in fact it was
pretty shit but when you have to eat healthy you have to eat some shit
sometimes. After a lazy morning we
finally got our arses in gear and finally finished stripping the walls and
started painting. We stopped for a salad lunch and then got straight back on it!
You know your getting old when you spend your bankholiday weekend doing
gardening and DIY instead of a bank holiday bender. (which is what I’d have
been doing this time last year!) but I guess theres nothing wrong with getting
older. Spending money on a lawn mower and paint is much more worth while!
We went to Mr Ds family for tea. We had a lovely roast and a
good natter. They bought up the subject of babies and whether I want any and
that his nan had mentioned that she thought I might not want any! Now I know
I’m 30 but bloody hell Ive only been with him 10 months. What do I say? Yes I
want lots of babies ha ha! I also want to foster and adopt and have every child
thats sad and unloved and put them under my roof. Not sure what they’d think of
that.
Monday 21st April
I bloody love Bank Holidays, especially Bank Holiday Monday
as working on a Monday sucks ass!! No time for lie in got straight up and
starting painting. Then rushed off to wilko for some filler to fill up the
holes! How exciting my bank holidays have got?! Made a healthy picnic of
chicken salads, humous and carrots and some lemon and coconut milk ‘natural’
pudding (supposed to be £3.75 bought for 25p shame they tasted like baby sick)
We went off to Tutbury castle with Mr and Mrs B and little L for a Viking Day I
bought on Groupon for all of for a tenner! Maybe I should do a blog on bargain
instead of losing weight I’m better at it ha! After picnic and strolling round
various stalls and watching Viking pretend to stab each other we seem to find ourselves
at the burger tent. Mr D got himself a hotdog with all the trimmings. Mr B got
in the queue for a burger then changed his mind as Mrs B reminded him off all
the hard work running hes doing at the moment to keep trim. It sounds crazy
that my brother who had run 14 miles the previous day and is fit and healthy
has the same worries as me. Do I don’t I have a burger? I really wanted one. Mr
B had a burger complete with garlic mayo, sweet chilli and ketchup. Were all or
nothing kind of people. Do other people
have these dilemmas? Not being particulay hungry and being next to good
smelling nice food and just wanting it? Finding it hard to say no when the
people standing next to you are filling their faces? Which is exactly what I
want to do? Luckily I needed a wee and by the time I got back they were done
and the temptation was gone. Me and Mrs B were going to go for a ice cream
instead as we figured this would be healthier?! But I wasn’t even bothered
about that anymore. Maybe in future if I get tempted I should go for a wee
instead! I am cured!
On the way home we popped into sainsburys and I bought of
pack of mini skinny cow ice creams. I nearly had 2 but just went for the one on
the way back. Feel pretty pleased with myself over this choice. Got back on the
decorating and cooked fish and vegetables for tea. I am goooooood J
Tuesday 22nd April
Started my day back on the porridge and banana which made me
feel good. In control. A good start to fill me up for my interview. Did some
more swating then put my planned outfit on my black pencil skirt with black
peplum top with red cardigan but my top was way too big! Ive not worn in for a
few months and its always been a bit big but it was no longer wearable! Whoop!
Just as I was debating what to wear I got a text through from Mrs C at work.
She’d got my reference sheet through for my interview next Tuesday! Crap in the
excitement I’d not checked the date properly it was next week. Off to work i
went instead lol. I didn’t want to fall into the half term trap of eating crap.
When I walked in our office there was already 3 packs of biscuits on the table
curtisy of Cock! Not even shity ones bloody hobnobs! But I persevered and had
some grapes, we pottered to sainsburys for lunch and I got some chicken from
the chicken counter. Why does lunch seem
some more forfilling when its hot? So I had some chicken without the skin of
course with a bit of left over swede mash from yesterday. The afternoon
munchies kicked in, the need for something sweet when I’m sat at my desk. How
people sit at desks for a living I don’t know I would be huggggggggggee if that
was the case. I was organised and bought 100% natural choc+ bag which was very
nice. Had little pieces of dried raspberry meringue and little bit of milk
chocolate. There must be worse things to snack on? Like less than half price
Easter Eggs!!
