LOL at the 'naughty asile'.
Yep, I got a total of about 6 hours between the hacking fits. But was up twice brewing my honey mixture and I think another 4 times rushing to the bathroom because I thought I was going to be sick.

I am off in about half an hour to do some clandistine plant retreival. This time last year we were frantically looking for a new place to live as our landlords wanted the old house to do renovation work, in other words split it into two 2 bed houses and charge more for each of them than they were getting for our rental of the 4 bed house. But we held on until we found this place (yummy house) in June. Of course in June its to warm to transplant scrubs and bushes and there was no way I would have been able to get them in the ground quick enough. So I now want them back, and as they still haven't started the work or moved anybody into the house, I think I can get away with sneaking in an pinching them back. One of the plants was a birthday present from DH, a lovely dwarf Willow, which would love it in by the stream.

Hi everyone, I've been good and just had porridge and 2 cups of tea with half sugar in so far today!

dp is going to take the kids out later and i'm going to clean the whole house top to bottom as quickly as i can to burn loads of cals and have a nice clean house at the end of it, plus will take my mind off food!

katylessbumpy · 27/01/2008 12:25

What a lot to read! My sister and BIL and nephew have been here for the weekend. The house is a bombsite. DD is very snotty. We had a lovely meal last night too.

My DP weighs the same as me. He is two inches taller. So I do need to lose some more.

Today -
breakfast - hot cross bun (had guests... does that make it ok?) and coffee
lunch - turkey and stuffing in a roll mmmm shared with dd and carrot cake shared with my sister. Chased the two small people round the science museum! Good fun.

Right need to go and tidy up.

discoverlife · 27/01/2008 17:08

I haven't eaten yet. Ooops. and now I'm starving. I can't do anything really fast as I want a roast dinner and the chicken isn't defrosted yet. But I will have a root in the depths of the freezer and see what I can find.
My plant hunting expedition went really well, most of the plants came up easy but I will have to leave them in the car overnight as there isn't enough time to store them out of the cold. The willow tree was a pain getting in the car, I know it will grow back, I had to give it a short back and sides to get it in the door, the cars an Isuzu Bighorn FGS. Its one of the biggest 4X4's on the market and I only just got this dwarf specimen in and shut the door.

fedda · 27/01/2008 17:17

try to use cold water for defrosting chicken, my mum had to do it often.

discoverlife · 27/01/2008 19:15

I cheated, steak pie out of the freezer, but with the usual roasties etc.
MPL is DD snotty because she has a runny nose, or is/was she being a right little madame?

So lots of exercise today, and chest is clearing up, Yippee!

fedda · 27/01/2008 19:23

katylessbumpy · 27/01/2008 20:52

your menu sounds good mrsfish,how come you think you won't have a loss this week?

OP posts:
MrsFish · 27/01/2008 20:55

Too much snacking and too much alcohol over the last couple of days and not as much exercise Mind you if I am very good over the next two days and do enough exercise I may be ok

katylessbumpy · 27/01/2008 21:00

Hopeysgirlwasntbig, would you like to join me in writing about what you are happy you've eaten? i think we often get upset when we eat wrong kind of stuff but we could inspire each other with some positive experience.

Afternoon all, back to the doc's today as I seem to have hit a plateau, and he diagnosed Bronchitis and the possibility of Asthma. So stronger antibiotics, and a peak flow meter and chart. I just mentioned that I hate getting colds as I end up with a cough for a month later, we spoke and whittled out that even yelling down the garden causes coughing fits, a deep breath can cause it etc etc.
Its buggered up my pelvic floor again, I was seeing the specialist and finally felt I was getting somewhere and the coughing started again and so have the 'accidents'.

katy have a BIG bowl of salad with a low fat dressing or Balsamic vinegar.
