Change of plan

With all of this weight maintenance, fat loss and staying fit there's a lot of planning involved. It's not just plain, simple and effortless you know! Anyway, the plan today was to head out to a birthday thing in a bar after a quite long and hard day and have a couple of cheats in some wine and a restaurant chicken Caesar salad. Except the bar was just far too difficult after today. So abominably loud that any conversation has to be yelled, plenty of places to sit if only everyone wasn't standing up and they serve food, but you can't eat it due to the aforementioned everybody standing up around the tables.

So I came home instead. And had a beef chilli and a bottle of wine because A. I'd planned for it as a mega-cheat and B. it's actually been quite a tough day.

B - greek yogurt with 1 scoop vanilla, fruit compote and flaked almonds
S - Nakd bar - Berry Cheeky
L - salad; lettuce, sweet pepper, celery, capers, chicken fillet and honey&mustard dressing
S - a pear
S - beef jerky
D - beef chilli, couscous, peas, sweetcorn and a bottle of wine

Exercise - 49 minutes gym (HRmax 184, HRavg 160)

Good old M&S

My favourite work dress has died a bit. The lining is torn all down one seam, but far enough either side of the seam that I can't repair it as the lining would then be tighter than the dress itself. It was £29.50 from M&S and I loved it as it fit, flattered and went in the washing machine at 40C.

So.

I got a new dress from M&S:-


Which, it turns out, fits better and flatters more! And was £29.50 again :o) (so this time I bought two and will keep one in the wardrobe for when the first one dies) All's well that ends well.
