Looking forward to next week!

TGIF

I love Fridays. Best weekday.

Today started with large coffees all round


 Lunch was the aforementioned Chinese/Thai food. It was deeeeelicious.


Dinner was plaice with lemon & parsley crumb and vegetables. I also had some challah bread (not pictured) with butter. The fish looks huuuuuuuge. It kinda was.


Some of the things I ordered from Amazon came. Wicked. The foam roller I bought is massive.


I also bought a sweatband. Gonna rock an 80s look with this for sure. I'm gonna be the coolest runner in Watford. Yeahhhhhh buddy.


Gonna watch Supernatural for a bit and try to sleep. I was nearly asleep earlier but then my grandma made a buttload of noise slamming doors and shit (thanks, really).

Plans for the weekend:

Weigh-in (not convinced about this, think I've eaten too much & have salt bloat from the takeout today)
Run (twice, hopefully)
Grocery shop
Take Merlin to the groomer
Clean (ugh)
Bubble bath
Relax
Sleep lots
Not eat crappy food

My life is hella exciting.

Oh, I'm still on my e-cig too. Haven't had a cigarette in ages now. Winnerrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.

First Fat Friday of 2014...

Food from the Chinese / Thai place was decided upon.

I'm opting for Bangkok chicken (cooked with lemongrass, lime leaf, chilli and a dash of coconut milk) and stir fried mixed vegetables. Seems like the healthiest option aside from the steamed sea bass (but we're having fish tonight so maybe next time).

I reeeeeaaaaally want my usual noodles & ribs. But no. The ribs are deep fried and have a sweet sauce on them, so lots of sugar, lots of bad fat & the noodle portions are massive so hi loads of carbs. It's bloody delicious though.

I'll probably eat that once every month or two cause I can't not eat it ever again...

But today is not that day.

Step 1 for life - learning how to pick the healthy options when a takeaway is being ordered.

Can't sleep

Really, insomnia? Now?

This is very annoying. Maybe I have too much energy after running in the evening?

I ate lots today


Breakfast was a large latte. No picture today.

Lunch was 2 salmon fillets with salad. I had two because one would definitely not have filled me up & I'd have probably snacked on whatever was in the office (mini chocolate bars...)! I had 1.5 at lunch and the other half later in the afternoon.


Dinner was honey mustard chicken thighs with carrot & coriander and sweetcorn fritters. Indulgggggeeent. So delicious. Not terribly unhealthy, only a bit of oil was used in frying the fritters (we had next to none left to begin with...)


There we have it. My day in food.

Friday tomorrow. Woooooooo!!
