Food....

Lots of posts today.... nearly forgot to report what I have had to eat today....

Today was a green day again - Brekkie was an Alpen light bar and a banana..... lunch was a jacket potato and beans and the half of the remains of last nights cold rice pudding with a pear. I met Fi at Costa this afternoon for a coffee... and was very good just had a medium filter with a splash of skim milk and no treats at all ;) Tea was Fish (HE B), SW chips and mushy Peas... followed by the other half of the remains of last nights cold rice pudding with a pear.... followed by another Alpen Light bar (HE B) (HE A's today were laugh cow cheese in jac pot and milk in rice pudding) - treat tonight is choccie.... so considering how 'pants' I am feeling after the scale problem am pleased with myself for not going OTT... and thinking sod it... as I used to do.... this time I am really going to be the slim me I was pre-kids.... and even those silly scales are not going to stop me neh neh neh neh neh :P

My card.....

Woo Hoo, today I have made my first card in ages, Chloe is going to Claudia's birthday tomorrow and as I have decided to make cards again have been busy doing my first one.... the picture isnt great of it... it has got stamped letters for her name, and my new Sizzix girlie on it.... which I have to say Andy made - isnt she great :) - let me know what you think of the card..... it doesnt look to 'homemade' does it?

Charity Day

Today was Charity Day at school, this years Charity was the Lifebox appeal. The girls did a sponsored skip around the school, paid £1 to come dressed up as 'someone who helps us' and the Juniors put on lots of stalls for the children to go to, fair type stalls and Year 3 brought in cakes to sell.... Chloe did a Treasure Hunt stall with a chocolate fountain (with Chloe you knew Chocolate would be involved somewhere:P) to dip marshmallows in after you had had your go....... Here are a couple of piccies of Chloe as a pirate and Lauren as a Doctor... as usual Chloe is posing... and a tired little LJ isnt too keen of having her piccie taken at all, and Nic joined the photo to pretend to be the patient :P



China Day

Tuesday was China Day at School, in celebration of the Chinese New Year, all Chloe's year dressed up in Chinese clothes or just bright clothes and did Chinese themed activites... I managed to get a beautiful handmade chinese outfit for Chloe to wear, thanks ebay :P and I did her hair in spiral twists each side of her head, et al chinese lady style.... here's a quick piccie, Chloe posing as usual :P......

Scales...... ggrrrrr

Having a scales problem at the moment, they have gone MAD.....

As you know, have been having a scales problem, was hoping they would be fine this morning, but no.... I got on the scales this morning and I was 4lb heavier.... and so was Andy...... so its definitely the scales and not me... but no matter how many times I got on and off they didnt change... so what should I do.... weigh myself on Monday and then go from there for what I lose next week - I dont want to say I have put on 4lbs as that will completely de-motivate me.....Andy is highly amused by it all - and says is that all I have got to worry about..... and quite frankly at themoment YES.... :P ......

I moved the scales all round the rooms last night, and it was amusing as I got DH to get on each time as well... moved them from the carpet in bathroom to the tiles in bathroom and put on half a stone, then moved them into the dressing room.... and lost a stone..... (like that place:) ) then moved them to the Gym and went down to 5 stone something as the floor is cushioned (liked there even more ) then moved them into our lounge in our room and they went to 6 stone something..... back to original place in the bathroom - still got the 4 lbs on.... Maybe If I lose any over the weekend, that could be this weeks loss and then go from there ..... grrrrrrrr
