Squally Showers and Diary Dedication

The Food Diary Hero :)

I am the food diary hero this week. When I first started SW I really struggled for some reason to fill it in and record what I had eaten – I thought I could remember just fine so why? I have realized my memory is not ideal, and has a selective quality where it misses out synful items – they just slip in my mouth and right out of my head – so this year I started to record a food diary again as I go through the day – hence feeling very pleased with myself, I am hoping the honest and detailed recording of all my nourishment will mean I stay totally on plan (or at least know how much off plan I am, if I am) and I will see the result on the scales tomorrow night????? Heres hoping. Ridiculous isn’t it, I am sure the majority of people have no trouble with this at all, but it has taken me nigh on a year to get the hang of always having the diary and a pen with me when I eat, and always writing it down – simple concept !!

I did get up early enough to make it to the post office today, and a lovely deep purple fluffy blanket I ordered before Christmas was there for me, which is a nice surprise, if a tad late.

It was chucking down with rain, and not the most inspiring of journeys – so I was relieved to get back to my work with that little chore ticked.

So my brekky was Dorset cereal (HEB), free yoghurt and banana (SF), with Tea (milk HEA):

Work, work, work then followed, with a lunchtime squelch thrown in, by squelch I mean a trip round the fields with the dogs – I swear the weather forecaster on BBC keeps pointing directly at my house and saying ‘squally showers’ – enough wet stuff already. First person to say hose pipe ban to me in 2014 gets it.

I had some French Fries to keep me going:

Then at lunchtime I made some wholemeal tuna pasta with lowlow (2.5 syns for my portion) and used up the salad from last nights supper:

My actual dinner today was SW cottage pie, veg and small SW roasted new potatoes (when I travelled I lived veggie due to not knowing where the meat came from, feeling like I may need a veggie day or two now for different reasons – too much home cooked local meat):

Short blog today, I hear you all cry out thank heaven for that rambling loon  :), and I ended my evening with a cheeky Peccorino – BAD JANIE! WI tomorrow, think of me tomorrow evening xx
