Cheap chocolate!

Thursday 15th August 2024


I had a good day yesterday, not been tracking again lately, so I need to sort that out but my weight has remained stable over the last few weeks, pound off, pound on but steady.  I'm quite pleased with that as I've been away every weekend for the last month haven't I.  

Today I will open my Nutracheck app and stop messing about, and at least track so I know what I'm doing.  I've not been going to the gym either for a couple of weeks, my knee is struggling, but again starting tomorrow, I'm going to get back to it.  The other reason the gym has been awkward is Aryn and I want to go at different times but he's not been for weeks so we had a chat yesterday and as he's enjoying his MMA and doing 5 hours of that a week, I'm going to buy him a bench so he can do the stuff he was doing at the gym in his bedroom and then I can go back to morning gym sessions. 

We also agreed to cancel HelloFresh again, we don't like having to eat those meals if we don't fancy cooking because yes you can freeze the meat but not all the other ingredients keep, my big percentage saving ended this week too so I'm not fussed about 20% off, so I've cancelled the subscription.  We can spend that money on a few nice M&S meals next week, we nipped to Tesco yesterday for a few bits, Aryn's turned into a very sensible shopper, he appreciates the cost of food and yesterday opted for Ms Molly products, that's Tesco's cheap brand, he had the ice cream, cream jam doughnut and the chocolate.  Feedback doughnut not the best, he said it tasted like a stale on would but the 49p chocolate bar was good, we both agreed it tasted like Easter egg chocolate!  100g bar too for 49p compared to other brands which are 3 times the price, he'd have it again.

After our morning huddle, I snuck off to have a couple of hours at the shooting range on my own, I love it, fresh air, good chat with the blokes that are there, so far they've all been really friendly and helpful. The time goes so quickly, it costs me £6 for up to 3 hours, then all I have to buy are the pellets so not a too expensive hobby, don't get me wrong, it would be easy to spend more on STUFF but I'm being a grown up and resisting.  At least the lads will have plenty of things they can buy me for Christmas now I have a new hobby because I don't need any more jigsaws :) 

Wow it's half six, I need to move myself, I've got to get ready for work, I leave in an hour.  

Here's to a good tracking day, getting my act together! 

Mwah, luv ya 


Love me xx
