Who needs a gym right? Got my step class and weights right here...
I always pack myself plenty of food for a 12 hour shift, I'd rather have too much and bring some home, than not take enough, get hungry and be tempted by the vending machine, which is populated with crisps, snacks and chocolate, not a healthy thingum to be found! Besides, I find snacking throughout my shift helps keep my energy up too.
First break brought the familiar sight of my banana and Alpen Light bar though, some things never change.
Although the fact that I ate them first is new ;o) Sorry, was a tad peckish (and tired). After that, the shift seemed to pass in a haze of busyness and breaks, so I'll just post up my noms as I'm sure you don't want to be bored with tales of life in a squash factory (the 12 hour remix).
My very yummy breakfast of raspberries, grapes, pineapple and banana, plus a yogurt.
Another break, and another banana, this time accompanied by yet more Rooibos tea and some Crunchy Curls (3 ½ syns of yum)
Dinner break number two, this time some leftover vegetable stew, another yogurt and a couple of fruit shoots.
Last break, the final stretch, and I had my other Alpen Light bar with yet more tea, and the knowledge that it was nearly time to head home :o)
When I finally got home, the lovely Hague had a chilli ready in the slow cooker and some wedges in the oven, and so I just about had time to get changed and settled before dinner was served.
It was a bit of a mish-mash chilli, as he'd used all the part packets of vegetables we'd got in the freezer,so along with the more usual tomatoes, baked beans and kidney beans, we had peas, carrot and cauliflower, along with Quorn chunks, but hey, it worked! That, with the wedges and cheese hit the spot perfectly. I decided to splurge some syns on a dessert though, and went with a white chocolate invention.

Apologies for not getting my blog done and dusted yesterday, but I literally had time to get in, eat, catch up with FB and Twitter and briefly chat to Hague before it was 8.30 and time for bed. Yuck. Roll on next week and lovely nights!
Oh, and I feel I need a quick catch up for the last few days!
- I have slimmed out of a lovely dress that I couldn't wait to slim into
- My lovely consultant commented on how much my face had changed with the weight loss
- I have gained nearly 50 followers this week on Twitter which has made me very smiley
- I have found the most amazing thing of all time ever online and I must have it (It's a mini plush unicorn bouquet - yes you read that correctly)
- I'm having to order new work trousers as I can now take my current ones off without undoing them :)
